I got this neat idea from Sheryn…She has one of these blog things too, and I thought, since we don’t get to talk anymore, maybe if i write this it will be a better way of keeping in touch. Then she will know what’s going on with me, and I will know what’s going on with her. Sounds fantastic.
Everything is good right now. My new apartment, my wonderful boyfriend, my incredibly situated life. I feel content. Nothing is missing right now. I don’t miss Abu Dhabi as much as I use to. Sometimes when I think about it I still get that little twinge of reminiscence…sometimes I still wish I hadn’t left…but my life is significantly better here than it was in Abu Dhabi. I miss my best friend, more than anything, but I don’t miss the person I became, or the person I left there being. I’m an adult now, in the best of ways. I still act like a kid on the weekends, but my 8-5 is a real career with potential for huge promotions. I’m working hard, and loving every minute of it.
I finally talked to my dad today for the first time in months. It feels good to talk to him again. I think he realizes that what he said to me hurt me more than he ever should have. I can tell he’s sorry, and that’s good enough for me. We needed a few months of non-talking in order to reinstate the bond we were losing anyway. He always loses his kids when he gains his girlfriends. Drama Drama Drama.
