Single vs Relationship

It’s been a while since I’ve been in a relationship. Sometimes, I miss those little moments that one has with that certain someone. I think most of that comes into play when I see or hear my friends talk about their somebody.
I’ve only been in one serious relationship and it was within this past year. Before, however, all of my friends would come to me for advice (and they still do). But I had no experience with anything. I was the single friend, who loves being single. I didn’t have any broken hearts. I didn’t have drama. Sex? WTF? Did I think of boys? Sure, if they were my friend or classmate.
Now? I’m mostly still a single kind of girl. I don’t have to be in a relationship all the time. In fact I prefer not to. That’s what causes drama. But like I said, I do kinda miss having someone to cuddle with, just hang, go out, or talk on the phone with. Ha, my friends say it’s because I don’t have fun. Like, I’m shy when it comes to guys. I should loosen up a little bit and chill. We’ll see how that works.

When helping your best friend get over a break up

• Do not tell her that there are plenty of fish in the sea. 

She’ll be a smartass, she’ll say, “BUT I DON’T WANT A FISH. I WANT HIM. I WANT HIM BACK. WAHHHHHH.” Then you’re a socially awkward penguin.

• Do not tell her that he was stupid for leaving her.

She’ll be a smartass, she’ll say, “I WAS STUPID FOR LOVING HIM. WAHHHH.” Then you’re again, socially awkward penguin.

• Do not tell her that he didn’t deserve her, and that she was too good.

She’ll be a smartass, she’ll say, “IF I’M SO GOOD, WHY DID HE BREAK UP WITH ME. WAAAAAAH.” Then you’re socially awkward penguin.

What you do is, you say, “BITCH. GET THE FUCK UP. WE’RE GOING TO WAL-MART. WE ARE BUYING A GALLON OF ICE CREAM FOR YOUR MOPEY ASS, AND YOU’RE GOING TO CRY. ALL FUCKING NIGHT. YOU WILL WAKE UP TOMORROW MORNING. WE ARE BURNING ALL HIS SHIT. ALL OF IT. WE’LL GO SHOPPING, AND BE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BITCHES ON THE PLANET.”
She can’t be a smartass, and you are no longer caught in a socially awkward situation. You are not a penguin, you are practically jesus.

It's been awhile...

since I’ve drawn anything. Today, I don’t have to work and I didn’t have an scheduled demos so I stayed at home with my nieces and just chilled. Trying to be productive I decided to whip out my Wacom Bamboo Pen and start drawing in ArtRage. I’ve got one of those You Can Draw books that has a million things in it. So here’s what I did. I need to practice some more but you like?

Change and Choice...

I’m one of those people who puts their all into what they do. My main problem? Trying to figure out that that ‘thing’ is. In an era where I’m not limited on the possibilities available, I find it hard to pick just one or two things to be faithful to. I know they say that it’s normal for people to change their minds, especially in college where people changed majors like they change clothes for a party. When I started college, I went in as a Spanish major. By the end of my first semester, I was a Speech/Language Pathology major. Before spring break, I was a Linguistics major. Now, I’m considering throwing photojournalism or documentary photography in the mix.
I love languages, how they are related to each other and how some are endangered. The cultural aspects of languages and the fact that people live and view life in many different ways is fascinating to me. I also love my camera and being able to capture the moment, create art, being challenged to learn this craft better, to share someone’s story through photography.
I always tell people that change is good. It keeps you on your toes. It makes to learn and deal with life. However, I think I’ve learn to adapt and change so much that I don’t know what’s important anymore. I don’t know what’s right for me.
