Fridays Frenzy

Okay so it's Friday night, and I'm home! Surprise Surprise!!
[that's sarcasm for those who don't really know me; I''m always home!]

So first things first ; If you've never walked up 20 flights of stairs you're not a champ! I can say that, because I did that today. I used my ubertwitter application to tweet about it; as I marched up those steps, from P2 to Penthouse! As I walked up all those freakin' steps; I said to myself "fuck I gotta quit smoking!" After I was in my apartment, I flopped down on my bed ; & rested for a few minutes.... Then sparked up the famous Belmont's. I can see all you non-smokers rolling your eyes right now, but it's all good. My best friend, said some real powerful words to me; the last time I said I was going to quit. "Quitters never win". & if that ain't the truth. I don't know what is!


Next on the list. My former roommate posted a "note" on facebook. It's really insightful. Which then makes me wonder if she wrote this herself. (no pun intended) but it is what it is. Note posted below.

"Being 20 something
i think all u 20 somethings will relate to this poem.......

...Its really hard
They call it the "Quarter-Life Crisis." It is when you
stop going along with the crowd and start realizing
that there are many things about yourself that you
didn't know and may not like. You start feeling
insecure and wonder where you will be in a year or
two, but then get scared because you barely know where
you are now.

You start realizing that people are selfish and that
maybe, those friends that you thought were so close to
aren't exactly the greatest people you have ever met,
and the people you have lost touch with are some of
the most important ones. What you don't recognize is
that they are realizing that too, and aren't really
cold, catty, mean, or insincere but that they are as
confused as you.

You look at your job...and it is not even close to
what you thought you would be doing, or maybe you are
looking for a job and realizing that you are going to
have to start at the bottom and that scares you. Your
opinions have gotten stronger. You see what others are
doing and find yourself judging more than usual
because suddenly you realize that you have certain
boundaries in your life and are constantly adding
things to your list of what is acceptable and what
isn't. One minute, you are insecure and then the next,
secure.

You laugh and cry with the greatest force of your
life. You feel alone and scared and confused.
Suddenly, change is the enemy and you try and cling on
to the past with dear life, but soon realize that the
past is drifting further and further away, and there
is nothing to do but stay where you are or move
forward.

You get your heart broken and wonder how someone you
loved could do such damage to you. Or you lay in bed
and wonder why you can't meet anyone decent enough
that you want to get to know better. Or maybe you love
someone but love someone else too and cannot figure
out why you are doing this because you know that you
aren't a bad person.

One night stands and random hookups start to look
cheap. GETTIN WASTED AND ACTING LIKE AN
IDIOT STARTS TO LOOK PATHETIC. You go through the same
emotions and questions over and over, and talk with your friends
about the same topics because you cannot seem to make
a decision. You worry about loans, money, and the
future and making a life for yourself...and while
winning the race would be great, right now you'd just
like to be a contender!

What you may not realize is that everyone reading this
relates to it. We are in our best of times and worst
of times, trying as hard as we can to figure this
whole thing out. Send this to your twenty something
friends...maybe it will help them sit down for a while,
take a deep breathe and ponder for a while. "

& now after reading it over again thoroughly, I'm convinced she did not write this. Seems to be a chain letter. Hmmm if chain letters were this insightful ; I could stop marking them as spam in my inbox. =O

Good night Lovely's
