*-. Whirlwind .-*
Life comes at you- fast. Before you know it, everything is changing and you're not even sure how you got there. Lately I feel more grown up than ever. Full time job, in an apartment by myself, making an effort to not be late with my bills (and umm not being very succesful at it). Figuring things out with the first serious relationship (so to speak) I've ever had; at least, the first mature relationship I've ever had. I could not have more reasons to be scared; I could not have more reasons to be happy. My support system couldn't actually be better: close friends, family, amazing boyfriend. And I am hesitant to face the Big Bad World, and yet I am facing it. Day by day my life unravels in rewarding yet unexpected ways. It is funny to think how, sometimes, I look myself in the mirror and wonder how nobody else sees the little girl that I see looking back at me. Almost like part of me just refuses to grow up. But who said that's a bad thing? |

Hola, chula...
Qué te digo... Growing up is a two-bladed sword, it definitely makes you a strong m'f'er, but it's also heavy and can cut you like a m'f'er.
But the little that I know you, I can see you're "turning out" just fine... Si no, no estuvieras hablando de esto... trust me! :-)
Sometimes the future tends to be kind of scary because we don't know for sure what's gonna happen. But once you get closer to that Tomorrow and that future you imagined starts mutating into the present, things seem to be more feasible and approachable.
One good example is that one of being in high school and thinking about how hard college will be, and once you are in college you start saying to yourself: "This isn't as hard as I thought."
In the States, I think, it's kind of easier to become independent, once you get a good full time job independence isn't hard to get.
Have a good one Alice, it's good to hear about you once again. I'm glad that Philly has treated you nice.
Ciao
