Naps, A Journey, and an Apology

So first I want to start off by saying how sorry I am for neglecting my blog for so long (almost two months like whaa), honestly I have no excuse but to say that I’ve been crazy busy…but the fact of the matter is I can’t even use that as an excuse. To be honest I just didn’t have much to write about my life has and still consists of work and classes but still I have missed writing. Sooo with that being said I am back and will try to write at least once a week from now on (forgive me if I don’t occasionally lol I’m only a person).

            I’ve been doing a lot of soul searching and assessing my life so far (I guess since my birthday’s coming up I got all nostalgic and what not lol!) and I realized just how much I miss being a kid and the lack of responsibility. Like now the first thing people ask me when they see me is so what’s your major? Or what do you want to be? And I’m just here like ummmmm idk lol a lawyer? I study communication? Like I miss the days when the first thing people would ask me would be how old are you? What do you like to do? What’s your favorite subject in school? All I wanna know is when did that stop? I get that people aren’t worried about how old I am but to be completely honest I’m still not sure where I’m headed in life (mom if you’re reading this I still wanna be a lawyer lol! Your tuition money is not going to waste!) But like seriously I miss not worrying about health insurance and what majors will help me get a job or having to pay off student loans after school, the stress of worrying is overwhelming!

            Above all I miss SLEEP. Honestly I can’t tell you the last time that I got 6 consecutive hours of sleep (thank God for Dunkin & Starbucks) I legitimately only function because of coffee. And this isn’t a rant I am thankful that I was able to grow and come into the independent woman I am today but like I now realize how easy I had it before and how ungrateful I was. When I was 11 I wanted to be 13, when I was 13 I wanted to be 16 because I didn’t realize how easy life was then (now I’m 20 and want to be 6 again lol!) And I heard it all before, to stop wishing I was older and cherish each year before responsibilities (but of course I didn’t listen) but I have come to reminisce about all the time I had before and I miss it. I miss being dependent, not having to do things for myself and not just sleeping at night but having naptime too!


            At the end of the day I am so proud of how far I’ve come through all of my accomplishments and tribulations and I love the independent woman that I am and if I had the chance I would not change one step of the journey that brought me to this point. But I would definitely take a few more naps along the way…you know for good measure ;).
