The Power of Words

I love my boyfriend.
That seems like a simple and very childlike way to start out the first post of my new blog, but it's also the prevailing thought in my head and has been for the past two weeks.
This kind of unconditional love in a relationship is new to me. I've never been with anyone who wanted to be with me because they genuinely liked my personality as well as my physical attributes and everything else.
Josh loves the whole package and it's such a nice change. He also tells me that he loves me often and he actually means it. I don't think I've ever been this happy in a relationship before.

On to less sappy subjects...

I can't really believe that 2010 is on its last leg. It doesn't seem like it should be New Year's yet. I started this year out believing that it was going to be one of my worst, but instead it has turned into one of my best. I started a job that I love with people that are wonderful. I even met Josh because of my job and I can't explain how lucky I am to have him; but I said no more sap... :) For the first time in a long time it seems like my life is moving in the right direction again and I am so grateful for that. All in all, 2010 was a very good year. Especially towards the end.

I'm looking forward to 2011, too. I start back to school in about a week and I'm honestly excited. I put my education on hold for a few years and now I'm glad to be getting back into it. I feel like I've finally gotten rid of a deadweight in my life that was holding me back and now I feel prepared to do almost anything.

In case you're wondering, I started this as a sort of catharsis. I have a very stressful job that takes up quite a lot of my time. This is going to be my way to vent and relieve stress and tension as well as share my thoughts; both good and bad. I'm sure I'll come off as neurotic, sarcastic, smart ass-ed, and down right bitchy on my bad days; but I'm hoping to show my better qualities on my good days.
