the sun shined a little brighter for me today.

I realized that while I am terrified for surgery, my dad is moving to Virginia, and I got cut off by complete surprise from a guy who swept me off my feet, that I have much more good in my life than bad.

I mean, given just my family and friends I will never have it truly awful. I am an incredibly lucky person.

Surgery: Bring it. I am more than ready for you. I have waited years to do this and I will be so happy.

Dad: Congratulations on getting the job you really wanted. While you may live in Virginia soon, that means I get to take road trips and get the hell out of here every now and then.

Guy I fell for: Unbelievable. I refuse to waste words on you. 

I have a dream coming true on Friday and after that a complete makeover! Pink hair, new piercing… I am SO PUMPED. AAAAAnd after all that, I get to travel and visit friends in Miami, NYC, and St. Simons. I have a gracious support system of family and friends and a bright future ahead. 

Summer may have sucked so far, but it’s about to get incredible. I’m ready.
