2011, humane society, inspiration, life, puppies, volunteering
I’m free again !! But the freedom is bittersweet, I’m now without puppies. Let me be the first to say that fostering any kind of animal will most definitely take you for an emotional whirl. I would be lying if I said I didn’t cry like a little girl who just found out there’s no Santa Claus. In that same moment, I was also free from further required community service which does feel rather nice. This whole process and challenge with completing these hours at the Humane Society has been largely beneficial, I couldn’t be more thankful. To most, volunteering is for the earthy, crunchy, peace core types that are suppose to be completely selfless.
I’m childish, I can be selfish, and I hate doing laundry along with cleaning up any type of feces. Early mornings are not my thing and when it comes to the general public, I’m completely indifferent unless it benefits me. And in a way that’s difficult to explain…caring for another living entity that does not give back to me, that interrupts my daily routine, is entirely worth the chaos. They will be dearly missed in our little townhouse, well, everything but their poop.
It’s now the lovely year of 2012, the year the world is suppose to end, which I find absolutely histerical. In a brief review of 2011, I can say that it was a year of improvement as well as one of milestones. The lucky boyfriend and I got to celebrate a whole year together, an accomplishment in my eyes. I know how difficult I can be, his patience is refreshing.
This was the year I began my fourth year of college and moved into my second home with my very first roommate. It was also my 21st birthday, a moment in time I thought would never be here. After a long day of school and a bad night at work, it feels better knowing you can grab a bottles of wine and silently tell the world to piss off. The only part of 2011, I might regret is my last words to the only father that God will ever give me. Another post I’ve been toying around in my head might be a better way of explaining this trying moment in time. In just a few words, after a long and rocky relationship of always playing the proverbial punching bag, I decided to eliminate him from my daily life. A painful decision that was more than necessary but may also be one I hate myself for later. 2012, I’m looking forward to going down this road with you, and seeing what a new year can bring. Happy New Year to all !
As Always,
