what goes up must come down

notables in the past week:

1. chores: often unwanted and disliked, i have come to realize that they can be quite fun, especially if you do not have to do it alone. they don't have to be monotonous events that take you away from the "fun" things in life.

2. illness: how it slows you down, how your body tries to tell you that you need to take care of yourself more, how you get worse because you don't listen. and echinacea works alright. but for how long do you have to take it?

3. overdramatic: sometimes, people make things more serious than others believe it is. what are you supposed to do? let it slide...

4. when they need you: you try to help them. especially if you're part of the team. especially if you had a hand in creating a project.

5. new places rock: 2nd street in belmont shores is oh-so-enjoyable! i love the houses nearby too. and south bay galleria is so fun! so many families.

6. dress up: sometimes, just to switch things up, i like to dress someone up and let them dress me up! how interesting because i never would have tried that...

7. second chances: there are some things in life you've decided you don't like very much, but it may deserve a second chance. like a restaurant or a certain person. sometimes you just have to forget...and try again.

8. i have lovely friends: even if they try to get me drunk, or give me their hand-me-downs, or tell me crude stories, or force me to play cranium at 1 in the morning... =D they are loads of fun... i just love it they keep it real.

9. i missed family outings: so we had one on saturday. more than just food. we went back to the swapmeet together and with an extra friend. and we had fun and did eat, too much good food!

10. when you are in my inner circle: i believe in you because you have shown me that you are true to me. and true friends come a dime a dozen.

i believe in you because you're real
