happy post

all of my last posts have been about being hurt, but to let you know that i havent been entirely bummed these past few weeks, here are some exciting things that have happened:

*a beautiful dance photo shoot with my bff!

*Senior trip to NYC!!! got to see “Phantom of the Opera”… ohmygosh, IT WAS AMAZING

*got my formal dress for $6… ::SCORE FOR ME::

*officially got a roommate for my freshman year at Auburn!!! :D SO EXCITING.

*46 days until i graduate! yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

*almost finished organizing every single picture that i’ve ever gotten printed… (a lot of work, but will be worth it once they are all in albums according to dates and subjects! haha)

*made it past 1500 tweets. not exactly exciting, but more on the insane side.

*BABY GIRL coming in the family!!

*got to see my long-lost cousin while in NYC (:

*finally loving my pictures that i take… not obsessing over every detail, but loving them despite their flaws. (now to come to this attitude about myself! haha)

*****

and that’s all i can think of right now… but SEE. my life isn’t all bad. and now i’m in a better mood. so thank you invisible blog friends for helping me cheer myself up. ;)

when your best friends fall in love…

its not the most enjoyable thing.
((I am fully aware of how selfish this post will sound, but i need to get it out, so i’d figure id do it here where nobody will really read it/care. haha))
i mean, its great that your two best friends are head-over-heels for each other. im really really happy that they finally decided to realize it!!
but at the same time it still hurts. a lot.
i abhor being a third wheel. it makes you feel entirely worthless and unwanted. but hey, at least theyve choosen to keep it a three-some instead of a “bicycle”. gives me some feeling of importance. :P maybe i can at the very least be a chaperone… im almost technically An Adult now, right?
but why does that matter at all if they like each other, you ask? because it does. it means that your best friends are no longer just YOUR best friends. i know its totally selfish on my part. entirely selfish. i shouldn’t care if they arent as close to me as they are to each other. thats good for them. but nonetheless, its still painful for me.
but alas, it comes with the territory. i shall grow up and find me some single friends again. haha, just kidding. i’ll keep my best friends and just suck it all up. being a third wheel isn’t that terribly, right?

and to pass the time, here is a great song that i like kind of with regard to this. not really, but i just got back from nyc and this play is still on my mind. ;)

this is intended to be a BEST FRIENDS YOU SHOULD FEEL GUILTY post (they prolly wont be reading it anyways), but for all the rest of you best friends out there who are in love, please be aware of your third-wheel friends for my sake.
