Death by phone

If phones were people they would be the ones we know are bad for us but we still can't let go!

Today, my iPhone broke! The camera just stopped working so I got a new phone. For about 2 hours I had no contacts or apps. Then I came home to sync my phone and for an hour I was phoneless. Being phoneless maybe the most painful situation ever for a young person. If your boyfriend dumps you, you grab your phone and text your friends. If you need to know where something is or what it's called, you google it from your phone! Phones are like hands! I'm so crippled by my phone it's really sad.

So I thought what if I didn't have a cell phone? What would I do? Would I be forced to go and see people? Would people come to see me? Would I actually pay attention while watching television or would I just sit on my laptop and do all the things I used to do on my phone? LOL! Technology has ruined communication. But we know that.

So as previously stated on my mission to grow and get better daily, I'm putting my cell phone down for 3 hours a day WHILE I'M AWAKE!!!

So it begins...

It doesn't feel like a decade just ended!

Honestly 2010 was the longest year of my life. I didn't think it would ever end. I guess when you have nothing to do every second feels like a minute and minutes feel like hours. Then when days seem like weeks it gets harder.

Breathing is no longer a luxury it's something I do get to do quite often. Life used to move so fast. Now it's s. l. o. w...  Changing pace is pretty healthy. I'm ready to press the gas again.

In 2011, I hope to be a better person. More of a "ray of sunshine" than the queen of shade. Trust me I'm still opinionated. I just realize that some people take opinions as facts then twist and distort my words to mean what they want them to mean. The price you pay for being honest (I know)!

My "Resolution" of sorts is just to be a better me. For myself and the people I love. I am going to grow from mistakes, learn from failures, smile in the hard times, appreciate the rain as much as the sun & keep rocking to the beat of my own drum.

Every month is like section in the book of life for me. Years are my chapters and I don't think the last chapter ended with the BANG I wanted. No regrets.

At this point, I just feel different. There's no way I can explain it, so I'm just living it!

I'm ready for all the mistakes, blessings, joys and pains that will come with 2011. I'm not afraid.
