so I’ve decided to let myself post some more personal thoughts, contemplations, etc here. you can ignore these if you want, it’s really just a way to keep things organized for me :]

long distance relationships

two weeks before my freshman year of college, I started dating my first boyfriend.

honestly, I’m an anxious person. my take was that if I had the opportunity to decrease my stress, why not do it?

so I stuck out that year and then I transferred back to the city. a few months after that we started living together.

at one point I thought of a quote from my favorite movie, “my sassy girl”: “building a bridge of chance for the one you love” cheesy, I know, but I didn’t want to be afraid of life either and end up never doing anything

after around 6 months of living together, he cheated on me. I’m not going to get into the details, that’d just be a waste of my and your time. :p

but you know what? I don’t regret anything. I learned a lot from this experience. I also ended up switching majors to something I really love

you can probably see all the mistakes I made

but even after all that, I don’t think I’m too far removed from the 18 year old romantic I once was. true, I probably (hopefully) won’t make any of the same commitments/mistakes I already made, but I think I still have the same optimistic
