Hello again! Finally, I think I'm ready to explain what has been keeping me from blogging regularly. Let's start with the boring stuff. Work. Work has been incredibly busy for the last couple of months. I received a promotion that requires me to organize and do presentations for a large number of corporate people. The pay increase was amazing and one of the main reasons that I decided to take the promotion. There were times during the last couple of months where I doubted that I made the right decision. I had to deal with a jealous co-worker who also applied for the promotion and I also was assigned a team of employee's that I had to lead through the whole process of putting together a major presentation. My job was riding on how well I did, and I was so nervous that I would fail. Normally, I'm a very confident person, but I noticed lately that I've seemed to have lost some of my confidence, but I'm happy to report that the presentation went almost flawlessly and I was praised for what an amazing job I did. I did well enough that my boss promised that I wouldn't have to organize another one until after my Vegas trip in August. That is such a relief for me, because I literally had no life while I was doing all the research and putting it together, so finally I get to focus on the more simple things and no more 7 day work weeks! YES!
Okay, on to the most interesting topic of this blog post. I've been experiencing some relationship drama. After consulting with the boy, he agreed to let me vent here (it's not like he really had a choice). To say that things had been rocky for us would be an understatement. We were arguing all day, everyday and it was about stupid stuff. We were frustrated with each other, angry at each other and we both said some things that we wish we could take back. Late last month it got so bad that he stormed out of my house, refused to be in the same room with me, and it had us questioning if we made the right decision to move from friendship to relationship. At this point, our parents got involved. His parents pulled me into my bedroom and his mom asked me "Do you love him? Is that love strong enough to get past anything? Do the pro's outweigh the con's?" and my parents asked him the same questions and then they organized a boy's weekend for him and a girl's weekend for me. They said that they expected the answers to their questions by the end of Sunday. I'm not going to lie, it was hard to think about and it weighed heavily on my mind throughout the weekend, even through all the fun I was having. It was the most mentally exhausting weekend ever.
Fast forward to Sunday, we met back up with our parents and we gave them the answers that they were looking for and we discovered that we both had been foolish and immature and that we needed to work things out like the adults that we are. Things have been better since. Of course we both have our moments where I'm a raging bitch and he's a stubborn, rude asshole...but we're working through our issues and communicating better.
That brings me to the end of this extremely long and personal blog post. That's a summary of what's been going on with me...without too many horrible details. My next personal blog post will be about ex-girlfriends/boyfriends and the jealousy factor. Until then, stay tuned for some more online shopping posts.
Until next time~
