Oh sweet freedom!

This post is completely random, but as many of you know, for the past two years I've been writing to a missionary who was my best friend/boyfriend in High School. He recently returned from said mission and I'd like to share my thoughts on the matter. When he left we agreed that I would not "wait" for him and would instead continue dating and living my life as if he were not a part of it. And now I realize how smart that was because, I have recently realized, we no longer 'fit'. After he got back, I kept waiting for the warm fuzzies of our past love to come back and fill me up with ooey gooey happiness, but they never did. Now when he hugs me, I feel absolutely nothing. This was at first, rather upsetting. But after vast reflections on the matter, I've come to realize that I like being single. In fact, in the months prior to his return I found myself wishing for another year to enjoy college life. But now that I know for certain that he and I have no future as husband and wife, as was the inferred plan prior to his leaving, I feel so relieved. I feel like I can conquer the world and I will.

So now I announce to the world (aka my very few blog followers) my plan for life. I still want to rock the literary world with my words and go on to be a great writer, but in the meantime, I've decided to go to Law School after NAU. I think I will be an awesome lawyer and who knows, maybe somewhere down the road, I'll be the next John Grisham. But no matter where I go in life, I know I'll do well because I believe in myself!
