Illegal Formation

I'm so excited about playing flag football here in Houston! I came to sub for girls today and decided I want to play for the rest of the season :) It'll give me something to do on Wednesday nights and it's worth the money since each night is a double game. The weather is a lot cooler since it's in the evening too! We won 2 games tonight... good start to a great season :)

Weddings.

I'm starting to get to that age where weddings are going to be more common to attend. I think it'll be great to get ideas on what I want/don't want so when it comes time for my turn, I'll be less indecisive. After hearing what people need to do throughout the preparation for the big day, it makes me wonder what kind of bride I'll be. Hopefully I won't turn into a bridezilla lol

The yellow and grey color scheme is still something I want. Not bright yellow... more pastel. I like it because not only is yellow my favorite color, It'll work whether or not it's winter or spring [grey dresses in the winter and yellow dresses in the spring]. This checks off 1 box for things-to-consider... the other 100 things can wait. :)

Bridesmaids... I'm going to have such a tough decision on how many and who. Ugh, the downfall of having too many close girlfriends in multiple groups... :(

Weddings to look forward to: Long&Huyen, Julie&Tuan [both of which are on the exact same day! Hopefully I'll be able to attend Julie&Tuan's after my brother's reception starts to trickle down]

Fresh.

Starting to blog again... joy:)

"Yes I was burned but I call it a lesson learned..."

Sometimes things are hard to swallow but rough times/situations can be a blessing in disguise. I may be weak at first (since I can't help that I am a girl) but at the end of the day, I know I'm strong and awesome. Bad things like these happen to good people so we can learn and appreciate amazing when we see it.

The five stages of grief are denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. I think it was originally made for those who are grieving over the loss of a loved one but it still applies to relationships as well. It's crazy because you really go through all these stages and feel all discombobulated in the process. They say you can't really move on until you've finally accepted and some people cycle between the first 4 stages longer than others. I've accepted and been constantly reminded that there is someone out there who will treat me the way I deserve to be treated.

life is beautiful. :)

A drunk man's words are a sober man's thoughts...

Alcohol is like a truth serum that should be taken at moderate doses. Cause man, when you take too much, you say things you wish you hadn't. I know it lowers your inhibitions and you tend to say things you want to say when you're sober... but some things are better left unsaid. With that said, no more drunk dialing. Lol... I feel like when I start talking about feelings and emotions... things just get way complicated. Let's stick to the simple life and have fun. :)

So, when you see me with my phone after a night of fun... don't let me do it. lol Just let me sleep on it and not make a fool of myself. Thanks.

Gentlemen

So Steph and I were on the bus the other day and it was packed as usual. Go figure. Anyway, the first stop comes and a seat opens up for Steph. I stand there and this guy that had his seat near Steph stands up and walks toward where I was. I was like, "What's this guy doing?"... then he goes "You can have my seat." Wow... how nice of him. How many guys give up their seats nowadays? Like seriously? That's one quality in a guy that I totally like... chivalry.

On to my next point...Where have all the gentlemen gone? I feel like it's so rare to find a guy that will open my car door or pull out my chair. The ones that appear to be "gentlemen" don't keep it up for very long. It's more like a front for the first few months and then BAM! Comfort zone.

Part of the problem is our fault. We have to act like ladies and have less of an "independent" mentality. Even though I don't like coming off as needy, it honestly feels nice to be treated like a lady. Looks like it's time for me to change a little. :)
