Just Enjoy the Ride

So, I had an interesting week last week...drama drama drama. I'm over it, I hate it, and I want it to be out of my life! Unfortunately, I am a girl and where there are girls, there is drama that follows. Why is that always the case?

I've been really overly emotional, too, and it is just exhausting me, so I can only imagine how Evan feels. We got into a pretty heated argument yesterday and after I calmed down and he calmed down, he kind of put things into perspective like I've never seen before. He told me that I'm a girl, a very girly girl, and that means I will get extra emotional. He said he was a competitive, athletic, always wants to get things done type of guy. He told me that these two qualities that we have are aspects we like about each other, but at the same time can be downfalls when we argue and that in times like that we just need to be there for each other and still give each other space. He said I need to chill out with my emotions and stop taking everything so personal and he needs to chill out with everything that is running through his mind.

This conversation...was like a light bulb for me...I don't know why...it was really brief, blunt, and honestly to the point. It was like I finally 'Got it'. Believe me, I have been in a fight a time or two, with multiple people, and I've never really had that light bulb moment...This probably sounds really dumb, but it is very interesting to me. I just think the way he explained it to me was just totally true and made complete sense. I've had so many guys give bullshit excuses (pardon my French) that really made no sense, so I really appreciated his honesty. I can always count on Evan to be completely honest with me and not sugar coat anything lol. Which is great by the way...honesty is the absolute key to a relationship. Without honesty there is no trust and without trust, why even have a relationship?

So there is my big moment that I wanted to share. I think I've found that girls have this tendency to think up something in their heads and subconsciously will compare the actual events to their made up events and chances are they will get let down. I think one of the best solutions to every girl's problem is to have no expectations; just keep an open mind and enjoy what happens. Don't have rules, don't compare yourself to others, don't long for things that haven't happened yet...just enjoy the ride.

Just enjoy the ride...isn't that easier said than done? We will see!

I have less than one week left of accounting (at least until the summer)! I couldn't be more thrilled, yet more scared of the accounting that has yet to come...'Advanced Managerial Accounting.' Hmmm, if I don't understand 'regular' managerial accounting...I'm pretty sure 'advanced' will be like learning another language.

I turn 24 on Friday...hmm.
