Girlfriends!


Friends are confidants, companions, support systems and allies. My friends, they're family, my sisters from a different mother and I love them.

Last night was the first time I saw my girls after a month long hiatus, which felt too long, and I had soooo much fun. I spent most of the time telling them about what happened to me, what I learned recently and what I should and shouldn't do. It was a horribly painful experience. I hate hearing myself whine. I do. I apologized, I just needed to get it out, especially to friends whom I know would understand me. They think it's high time I resign too! :)

It's not about finding someone who will take your side. It's more of finding people who will listen and give you their opinion without fear that you'll hate them for it. From these girls, I'll take anything they can throw at me cause they know I'll be the same with them if I need to be. I'm just lucky that they see it the same way I do and that they think I'm doing the right thing.

So thanks girls, for the wonderful night I had last night. It was a total reprieve from everything! I love you!

My Support System

I am not a risk taker. As many who know me well enough would know, I don't like not knowing how something will turn out so it takes me awhile to actually do something. That's the main reason why it took me so long to actually get the courage to actually resign. The uncertainty of what the future has in store for me. The thought of not having constant income, of not having work...that's a pretty scary thought. But in the end, I think the need to not be in a certain situation trumps any fear.

The moment I submitted my letter I sent messages to those I was closest to and the one constant reply I got was Congratulations! It was heart warming and very encouraging. I was doing the right thing. I was finally taking that one big step for me! And whatever comes my way I am sure I will always have them.

So a big shout out to my family, my friends and most especially to my significant other without whom I would still be confused and angsty! hahaha...you guys balance me out! Thank you, for providing me with another point of view and for not always agreeing with my views but still hear me out! Yay! Love you support system!
