#110 These are My Confessions....

• Yesterday I renewed my license; as always I look half asleep. How come pictures that have to last 4 years aren't always great pictures? Driver's license pictures happen so fast. The lady barely had counted to 3 before she took the picture. All she told me was to look at the Stop sign sticker. 
• I realized also yesterday that the next time I have to get it is when I will be turning 31. That is something I don 't want to even think about. Me at 30 plus; thats scary and is making me feel old. I can't even imagine where I will be. 
• Sunday aka Father's Day is my birthday and I get to share it with dear ole dad. I will be turning 27. That is three years from 30. OMG I may have just had a lil freakout moment. (STOP & BREATHE). When I think about where I thought I would be when I was 27, I didn't think I would be still working a Tradewinds (don't get me wrong, I love working with dad and making my own money), but honestly I thought I would be in some big city making it on my own. I really need to stop feeling bad about myself and see what I have accomplished in my 27 years. (1) I went 7 hours a way to college all by myself, (2) I did Semester at Sea, something I have wanted to do since I as like in 8th grade. (3) I traveled around the world, literally, on a small ship on said Semester at Sea. (4) I have friends all of the world. I am sure there is more, but we will leave it at that. 
• The day I say that I have a boyfriend to my family is one of the days I think I dread the most. Don't get me wrong, I love my family. But if the way that act when I drink an alcoholic beverage is any indication, it will be a BIG deal. They are a crazy bunch, but I love them all the same.
• I am shy. I know that. My family and friends know that. I have been better since going off to college on my own, but it still kills me when I am the center of attention. Anyway, when the day arrives and I do get married, don't be surprised if I just call everyone and tell them I got married. Of course, every little girl dreams of their big day; and of course, I want those who have seen me grow up to be there, but if there are 500 people (I am not really exaggerating) like there was at my sister's wedding, I don't think I could do it, but who knows and who could predict what the future holds.
• I am not a jealous person. I never have been. When someone gets something or accomplishes something, I truly am happy for them. Also, I really am not a materialistic person. I would rather spend quality time with someone instead of buying or receiving some kind of gift. I mean life is short so why don't spend it with those you love and those who love you. Of course, we all want things that other people have, and I am no different, but why get jealous? If you want something others have, do something for yourself to get it.
• So is it just me or is there something in the water in bayou Lafourche. It seems like, at least on Facebook, that many people are having babies and/or getting married/engaged. I guess I should stop drinking from the tap.
• Have a great Tuesday everyone!!!!!!!!!!!
