scary things.

i'd always wanted to follow the 'do one thing each day that scares you' thing. i used to modify it, replacing 'day' with 'year' - yes, risk-averse, that's me. strangely enough, these past few weeks have been so full of 'scary things' that i'm actually learning to enjoy what i had actively avoided before.

so... at the tender age of 22, i am finally dating.
(needless to say, mom is very, very happy.)

i'm still thinking about how much of the specifics i want to divulge here... there are already quite a few goofy stories. it'd be nice to have them chronicled, if only to humor myself later when i'm a lady of luxury, sitting around by the pool. just kidding...?

definitely grateful for all the friends who are aware of my newest endeavor. i feel like i'm going into this with a team of consultants; i'm always able to turn to them for advice and more perspective, and it's very comforting. i guess that's the one good thing about starting really, really late, haha...

well, tonight's probably the scariest so far. maybe because i have the most hope for this one. he's awesome on paper and super friendly on the phone. i guess we'll see. (pleasebecutepleasebecute...!!)

weird.

finally got a blog!

ok that exclamation is not as excited as it sounds. i honestly don't know how i feel about this.

i've actually been rather anti-blog. i'm uncomfortable with the fact that anyone could find this page. not that i plan to feature anything incriminating or embarrassing on it, but... i just like to have control. haha. my first instinct was to go to the settings tab and to make it so private that only i would be able to access it. but then there'd be no point. might as well create a password-protected word doc 'diary' instead. (oh wait, been there done that.)

so... i'm just going to try to let go and not care. extra-long hours on the job will lower my inhibitions, i'm sure. i want to be able to write candidly and not have to censor my thoughts. (may have to censor some names in the process, however...)

we'll see how long this lasts.
