I've been thinking a lot about how much I've taken my health for granted. I drink, and I smoke way too much. I'm on medication right now that forbids me to drink, but occassionally I have nights where that's what I do - drink. I drink to quiet my thoughts, to let loose, and be social. But then after every single one of those nights I am hung over, tired, and grumpy. I sit in bed and say to myself - " Self, why the hell did I go out last night?". Granted I used to do this 3 times a week, now it's only down to once a week. Baby steps, folks. I have been doing so great in school and would hate to mess that up now. I am the youngest of my group of friends, surrounded by amazingly talented people. Being the youngest, I've been thinking about just that...my youth. The years I've wasted inside my head. I've been in Dialectical Behavior Therapy for six months and I am beginning to awake from the slumber in which I've been for so many years now. All I want to do is run. Laugh. Love. I've been missing out on so much, which brings me to my next adventure...Aerial Hooping!! Yes, I have been wanting to learn how to aerial hoop ( a long with about a million other things ) for so long now and have finally found the person to teach me. This Saturday morning, the lessons begin! Wish me luck kids, I'm going to need it. xo
