So I definitely owe you guys a new blog, and I definitely owe you some positives in my life. I feel like all I do on here sometimes is rant and vent. I've realized I need to vent my frustrations every now and then, but I shouldn't be using this blog for that and I should be more positive. I'm also gonna try to be more open. I usually talk about things I'm a little more comfortable with on here. I don't really share the more personal things, and I think I need to work on my trust issues and open up on here more. So in the interest of openness and honestly, there's a few things in my life I should probably discuss
I'm dating an amazing man. It's been about 7 months that we've been officially together now. I can honestly picture spending my life with him, and want it. I can't imagine being this in love with anyone but him. A few months ago, I started taking anti-depressants. It's something I honestly should have done years ago. Now I don't spend the majority of my time hating myself and blaming myself for everything. They're really helping me feel a lot better about everything. I have a few things that I'm really looking forward to this summer. Winnipeg for Ai-kon, a couple weddings, and going to Montreal for a kick-ass music festival. I also went to Winnipeg for Pride last month with 2 of my closest friends, and had a fantastic time. Had a lot of fun running around the exchange district in particular and eating almost nothing but seafood. MP, you have no idea how much I adore you <3. That's pretty much all I have to update for now, so until next time, be good.

Sorry for not updating enough guys. Things have been a little hectic, but I now have internet access so that should be helpful in the updating more often thing I was talking about doing. Rather than re-cap how my life has been going, I'd like to take this opportunity to talk about the Holidays.
I've been seeing a lot of posts on facebook about this whole "War on Christmas" thing. Apparently, people feel that the culturally inclusive "happy holidays" greeting is infringing on their rights as Christians to shove their religion down other people's throats. Let's just stand back and take a look at this idea for a moment. Christians are feeling persecuted and pushed aside. That in itself is hard for me to believe. The fastest growing religion in the world is feeling like they are being pushed aside. The most believed in religion in the western world feels pushed aside. Really? But what really gets me is that they're insulted by a holiday greeting that is inclusive to all cultures, religions, or lack thereof. I just want to say that I don't harbor any hatred for the religious folk that hold this view, and I agree with the view that religion is like a penis. It's fine to have one, and it's fine to be proud of it. But please don't take it out in public and start waving it around. And please don't try to shove it down anyone's throat. I just don't see why people are freaking out over a greeting that isn't targeted for one single religion. Happy Holidays everyone!! God, it's been a while. I have a legitimate excuse of not having internet access and working all summer though. I think that's a pretty good reason for not updating. So, lets have a look at how my summer went, shall we? Finding work was definitely off to a slow start, but I did get a job that I love and will be continuing with said job for the school year. I managed to avoid major drama for most of the school year as I was working all the time and didn't have much time for a social life, and no social life = no annoying drama. Although now it feels like because I got about 3 months free of drama, I am now being bombarded with it. Everyone's got their problems, and somehow, I'm the person they wanna talk to about them. No clue how this happened. I usually make it pretty clear that I generally hate people. (Why did I decide to go into counseling as a profession again?!?!) Mostly, over the summer, my belief that people are douchbag covered bastards with asshole coating was proven true. My mom called over the summer to tell me that our cat, gizmo, was run over. Not because he was out on the road and someone didn't see him, but because he was IN OUR DRIVEWAY and someone served into our driveway so that they could run him over. I hate people so fucking much. That's not to say that I don't like anyone. I like persons. But as a collective group, people are fucking idiots. I do actually occasionally get glimpses of hope in humanity though. And as much as I generally like to hole up and ignore everyone, doing so tends to make me bitter (surprise!) and I have to go be around people to make sure that I get some endorphins and don't turn into a complete bitch. That being said, I'd like to apologize to my roommate for not getting enough people time this summer and being grouchy all the time. I'll try to update more often this year and toss up some more poems. I'm gonna even try and write some new ones this year. I feel like I've just been ignoring my creative side for a while and am going to burst if I don't let some of my angst out. But for now, it's time to say adieu. Oh Blog, I'm sorry I've neglected you. But I had a pretty decent excuse. Going home for the holidays and therefore, having no internet access.
So Christmas break. Yay! I gotta say, it was pretty decent. My uncle Frank and Aunty Bert are living with my parents now, so the house was a little more full than what I was used to, but it was okay. Also, my brother who hasn't been living at home, moved back home, which just made my entire break. I love that kid so much. The highlight of my break was the wedding of one of my good friends from high school. It was a beautiful ceremony and a wonderful reception which led into an awesome New Years party. Speaking of New Years, I've decided my resolution this year is to take more pictures. Yeah. None of that improving my life crap for me this year :P I'm actually looking forward to the New Year. It started off pretty well, and while of course I'm not naive enough to believe that it's going to be trouble free, I have a pretty optimistic outlook for 2011. So far. I have a huge amount of errands to run tomorrow, so I'm gonna call it a night now, but I'll be back soon! xoxo |
