Decisions, Decisions

This week has been undoubtedly the most crazy, shocking, life-altering week for me. For reals. Luckily I've been house/dog-sitting for a friend this week and it's been beyond amazing to just chill by myself with the cutest dog you've ever seen. It's peaceful and I've been able to let things roll around in my head for awhile. It's really funny cause we always think we know what we're going to do with our lives. OK, correction: I always think I know what I'm going to do with my life. And let me be very clear that this week totally effed that up. It's really a blessing though because I've realized it's time to just TAKE A BREAK. I've been in school my entire life and I'm tired. I'm burnt out. I need a little friends and fam time in my life. It's reeeeal difficult not having people in my everyday life that aren't my TRUE friends. And to be even more honest I need my friends that don't live and breathe music. I currently live with two other musicians and all of my friends here are musicians except for like two of them and it just. gets. old. I'm over it and I actually need some more time for my voice to develop so why not go home, hunker down and live a little?

I'm beyond excited especially since I'm thinking of living in Seattle which I've always wanted to do AND I'm thinking it's gonna happen with the bestie, Sam. So, let the adventure begin. The adventure where I let go of the reigns of my life and live a little (SCARY!). Bring It.

I'm Grateful Today For:

• Deciding and feeling at peace about it.
• Potential best friend roommate.
• Getting out of FoCo and letting these past two years sink in a little bit.
• Reconnecting with friends and spending time with my family in the near future.
• Being patient. Slow and steady wins the race, right? Although I kinda "Want it now!" like the Black Eyed Peas song goes...but I keep reminding myself: Be Patient!
• Potentially doing a summer program in AR! WOOT!
• Getting new glasses. I went to a frame place and found THE cutest frames and showed them my prescription and the lady was like alright we can get these done in an hour. Wha? Um. Is this like one hour photo? It was totes cray cray. But I get to pick them up tomorrow!
• Not having to rush to fill out forms and make recordings for auditions I'm not ready for. Sigh 'o' Relief.

Good night ladies! I'm off to hulu it up for a while.
