learning to love...

Learning to love when the world's reaction is hate is quite a challenge indeed... but what a pleasure it is to suffer and learn how to love... and what a pain too.. :)

We had our 2nd development session all last week.. I thought it would be nice to get out of work for a few days, but man, did I wish I was back at work.. group projects, difficult people..rather, difficult person.. opinions stated, voices raised.. i'm really starting to think i have a lack of people management skills. i never had these problems before.. so weird!!! unlucky perhaps??? or rather, i think i've just lived a very sheltered life..

I went to my first bridal shower this weekend.. and boy, did I learn a lot about showers and weddings!! My friend Karen who I went to school from 2nd through 12th grade is getting married in June, and yes, she's my age... craziness.. these kind of events really age us.. you can't help but feel old when your friends are getting married and entering the "true adult" stage of life... it was a lot of fun catching up with friends, and parents of friends who I grew up with... parents who used to drive us around to soccer everyday.. ah the good 'ole days.

anyways, so i have less than 2 weeks to figure out what i'm going to do about my living situation, move out and in or stay, figure out what i'm going to wear to my boss' wedding, figure out who if anyone to bring, do my taxes, book hotels and plane tickets, finish up any major projects, get in good soccer shape, tryout.... slightly stressed... oh well, what else is new... but whatever.. after 2 weeks.. i am off to CHINA!!! wish i could stay there more than my vacation days allow...
