Flowers

So I did receive some flowers earlier this month at work. They brightened my day like no other and pretty much set the tone for the rest of the month. Thank God. Life has been one HELL of a ride since the new year: work, school, family, and the ex-factor.

Working full time, minus the time I had classes, was a bitch load of stress but well worth it. Got A's in both classes! Given it is community college..it's still is a lot of work to do.

My dad got laid off and my brother's new car was totaled on his way to take the GREs. Bad luck much? We deal...that's what families do.

Then there's the ex-factor. I'll leave it at that.

At this moment, I can't help but smile. It's crazy how people claim to hate fake bitches and talk so much shit but are the exact mirror image of that person. I'm not gonna lie, I talk A LOT of shit. But one thing I never do is front like I don't do the same thing. I never hesitate when I'm wrong about something and never hesitate to apologize for it. I think I'm a good person. I'm the kind of friend who will sit and cry with you when you're hurt, the kind of friend who will listen to you rant about the dumbest shit even if you're wrong because I know you need to let it out, the kind of friend who will go out with you and get crazy because for a second you need to forget about your troubles. I'm glad that I have friends who do the same and more for me.

I never fall too quickly, always have my guard up, never hold grudges, and because of that...I hold on even tighter.
