To the person who loves me next

Marilyn put it best...

To the person who loves me next

"I'm selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes. I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best." -Marilyn Monroe

Please be patient with me. I've been let down time and time again. I let my guard down so many times just to be stomped on repeatedly by anyone and everyone I've ever let in. Now as Mr. Trump would like to say, the wall is built. I will be hesitant when it comes to tearing that wall back down, be patient.

I'm not easy to love. I'm difficult and stubborn. I don't like to let people in. I have awful anxiety and sometimes I get sad for no apparent reason. I'm not perfect. I'll notice and question the slightest change in your tone because everyone that gets close always leaves. I'll probably annoy you, piss you off, and stay stupid things that make you want to scream at me multiple times a week, maybe even a day, but don't because in five minutes (or less) I'll be begging to cuddle.

I love everyone else more than they love me. I've always been the girl who went the extra mile. DD making sure my friends get home. Buying ten billion Christmas gifts because I don't want anyone to feel left out. Chasing the tech bus down with Taco Bell's twelve pack for my friends. I always go the extra step for the ones I love even if they're not willing to for me.

Cherish my trust. Trust has become such a hard concept these days. Reassurance is never a bad thing. I'm going to be leery of your honesty because of my past. Use your actions to prove rather than your words. I am so understanding and willing to forgive, there is absolutely no reason I should ever be lied to. I truly believe the painful truth is worth way more than a comforting lie.

I appreciate the little things. I'm not hard to make happy. Ice cream, Chinese, "chicky" tenders, food of any sort really will make me happy. Little adventures whether it be to the grocery store, or for a walk on the break wall make me a happy girl.

I will love you with every fiber of my being. I'm not one to hold back. I can't half-ass love. I want to see you be the best that you can be, while you bring out the best in me. You'll never question my feelings because I'm one who always fears missed opportunities. The thought of losing someone unexpectedly and not being on good terms with them is something I truly cannot fathom.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

Find excitement in your life and start exploring wherever you are right here, right now.

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
