It's amazing to think of how fast time has flown by. This year was by far the craziest of my life & it's almost about to end. Thank God!!! As much pain as I've endured this year, I have some great memories too. I saw Backstreet Boys & Justin Timberlake, highlight of my year & life! I've waited YEARS to see them & it finally happened. I got to ask BSB a question & answered it directly to me, AH!!! And JT literally was inches away from me. *Sigh* INCREDIBLE! Not only them but I went to plenty of other shows. Rihanna, Bruno, Katy Perry, Ellie Goulding, Sara Bareilles, Tegan & Sara, Kacey Musgraves, Jesse McCartney, DJ Pauly D. Anyone else that I'm missing? It's literally been a Pop music year for me. Being diagnosed took me back to being a little girl, listening to my favorite genre, Pop music. It made me feel normal again & took me back to the times when all I had to worry about was if my Barbie's hair would grow back. It didn't, haha.
Not only the shows I've gone too, but all those memories with my family and friends. It's brought me even closer to them, farther to some. But for those who've always been there before & the ones that this experience has got me closer to, THANK YOU! I can't even say in words what y'all mean to me. To those that walked away, fuck you too ;).
I'm hopeful for 2014. My bucket list is ready to get cut in half. I've done a few things on there, but 2014 I'm gonna complete even more. My friend Susie tagged me to a photo of a jar & each time you experience something good or fun, you write the memory, put it in the jar, & read it on 12/31/14. Neat, huh!
I get to finally graduate with my Bachelor's degree. Get back to working again. Volunteer. Travel. The list goes on & on. So much to experience in this world & I'm going to take advantage of it. I wanna do all this now, while I'm young & able to. I heard the other day, "There's always an excuse not to do something." I don't wanna be like that. I want to enjoy every little thing life has to offer NOW. I don't wanna put it off & be 80 years old & reflect back & think, "Damn!"
NEVER BETTER THAN NOW! Seize the day!
I'm ready to finish this chapter on my cancer journey & move to the next one..
Goodbye 2013. Hello 2014!
