wtf, Life?

I don't want to write an emo "blah blah, my life sucks" blog, because my life doesn't suck. I'm just pissed off at everything lately. Maybe it's the hormone pills, or maybe things really are that aggravating. Regardless, I'm going to write a blog to remind myself of all the reasons I have to STFU and get over it.

Friends
I have wonderful friends, some of the best in the world I'm sure. They told us in high school that when we went to college, we'd lose touch with people from high school, but you (almost) never lose touch with people from college. I can say that I'm pretty sure that's accurate (if I'm allowed to count Marybeth as both a high school and college friend... they never said it had to be people who went to your college.) I never want to let go of these people, and I never will. No matter what happens, I know that there's always going to be someone who has my back, and supports me 100%. There'll always be someone to drive me home in a storm, because they know I'm freaked out by lightning, and someone who will call me at 11pm to make sure I'm not alone hiding in the bathroom where there are no windows.

Living
I have access to enough food, and sleep, and education, and clean water, and heat/AC, and comfort, etc. I know I'm not the only one who takes these things for granted. (on a tangent now...) I HAAAATE when Americans act like we shouldn't do everything in our power to give these things to everyone on earth! What the FUCK did you do to earn your right to receive all the great things this country has to offer? You were born here. That's it. You were lucky as shit, and you were born as the descendant of someone who worked their ass off to get here (or went through extreme mistreatment to stay--in the case of Natives). YOU did NOT work YOUR ass off to get here. You probably do very little to deserve it either. I wish everyone would just adapt the mindset of living with a little less, so someone can live with a little more. (if you're wonder what I'm giving... other than donating to all those coin collection thingies, and always checking the "I'd like to donate an extra dollar to..." box on receipts and bills and whatnot... when I graduate (someday. lol.) I am doing one of two things. I'm going to teach English in another country (developing country, most likely) or I'm going to join the Peace Corps.)

William
Yeah... he gets his own segment. They tell you to marry your best friend, and hopefully I'm on the right track to doing so. I've never felt so comfortable and open with another human being (Have to specify species because I tell my dog everything. lol.) I can truly, and totally be myself with William, and I know that what I'm doing or saying might annoy him, but he's going to smile and love me regardless.

My Health
It isn't perfect, but I'm not dying. That's something to be grateful for.

Myself
Everyday I feel more and more aware of and comfortable with who I am, what I stand for, and what I believe. I respect myself, and mostly enjoy who I am, and who I'm becoming. I can look at myself in the mirror, and feel like I'm perfectly honest with myself. Who I see is who I am. (k... now I've got that Mulan song stuck in my head...)

Music
mmmmm....music. It's good.

I should feel pretty good right about now. I guess I feel ok. Fuck my stupid emotions. I'm officially blaming the meds. lol.
