Before I say what's really on my mind, I feel as though I should explain how AMAZING MY LIFE HAS BEEN since I last blogged.
How do I sum up almost a year and half of events while having the worst memory ever
What has happened since March 2012?
I went to St. Lucia, by myself, and it was absolutely the most amazing time of of my life and I wish I had stayed a bit longer. I didn't really want to go by myself but I just had enough. I had enough of waiting for others to be where I was in life (or expecting myself to be where they are). I also felt extremely overworked and under-appreciated at work and I felt like if I didn't escape at that very moment I might regret any future actions. There is nothing like waking up early (and well rested) going for a walk through rain forest like scenery, sipping champagne on the beach with the sun in your face and the ocean waves putting you into a trance. Complete bliss and I wish I was there right now!
I also, further, reacquainted myself with an old dear friend who is absolutely the greatest and most amazing best friend I could ever have. I have a few really good people in my life and I love all of you so much...and I am pretty sure you know it. I show people when I love and care for them...even if some people stab me in the back, rip out my heart and walk all over it (<--bitter much?).
THIS AMAZING WOMAN changed my life...she did. I found myself having a life again. Doing things I loved doing when I was younger. She introduced me to her friends and all I could think was, "oh this is what adults act like?" I know, that's so rude of me but I found myself surrounded by people who didn't have any ambition, never though about their future, was bound by rules and acted like they were in kindergarten. Its safe to say that if I have any friends in my life now or is still in my life from the past 8 years then I think VERY HIGHLY of you and have the utmost respect for you. You either share my zest for life or you are so inspiring that I am constantly drawn to you and must keep you in my life at all times! Its true, there is always at least one quality in each of my current friends that I am in awe of....
And so the ball started rolling and everything was falling into place. A whirlwind of events and experiences. Everything I wanted and so much more. I feel like the Universe was sending everything I dreamed of and I don't want for it to ever stop.
I went to sports games, endless socializing events, met so many people (most did not remain mind you). I went to New York City and had a phenomenal time with cousin for her birthday. There is nothing like New York City to give your confidence a boost. I did NOT want to leave...men, ooh, you can sweet talk me as much as you want baby...I was so happy. I went to JAMAICA! Finally. THANK YOU THANK YOU. Still brings tears to my eyes that another dear friend made my dream come true.
And the Universe did not stop there! I went down to my parents home country, TRINIDAD & TOBAGO and spent some time with my dad and family.
I went down to Florida and met up with my cousin that I haven't seen in forever. We went to West Palm Beach, South Beach and Miami Bayside and we even went on a cruise to Bahamas ----- seriously, is THIS MY LIFE I AM WRITING ABOUT?
Jeez, Westjet even us in first class cause I traveled so much within a short time. Who knew...my life is unfolding before my eyes.

Now, my bestie and I are planning our trip at the end of March. Just the two of us...no stress, no worries, just sun, sun and more sun.
I am sure other things happened in between...men (mostly bad haha) but if you know me. I am all about experiences and even bad experiences are good experiences in my book.
Forget Drake's YOLO I am all about "Making up for lost time". Too bad there isn't a catchy abbreviation for that one.

I just cannot believe where the time has gone.
Closing notes: I am so thankful for everyone I hold close in my life. You all mean so much to me. You all treat me like a human being with feelings and I respect you for that. I am so thankful for all of the opportunities I have been given. I am so thankful that this world has treated my friends right and through good times and bad they have persevered.
I just want to hold onto these moments for life and I am crying on the inside that these moments never stop. NEVER EVER STOP, PLEASE! I am having too much fun and I cannot allow for anything to get in my way.
Onto my next post...
