December Wish List

So here is my December wishlist… my birthday and Christmas is coming up so I made this list way longer than usual (or ever needed to be) in case there is anyone unsure of what to get me.  However, really you can get me anything your heart desires, I am not hard to please.  Also this is a WISHLIST as in things I dream about having.  Obvi I do not expect anyone to get me the $1200 camera that is on here. I’ll be saving for that bad boy for the next three years…

You Are Only 18 Once... Happy Birthday Zaina!!!!!!!!!

I can hardly believe that my niece turns 18 today!  Where did the time go?  When I see her and her sister I still see little 4 and 5 year old girls.  Anyways... to celebrate her birthday I did a photoshoot with her.  Enjoy the pictures!

HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY ZAINA!!!

Today you become a woman... whatever that means.  Turning 18 is a wonderful time.  You now have more freedom, but not all the responsibility of adulthood yet.  So take this time and enjoy life.  Don't be so scared and embarrassed.  Take life by the balls and live it!  This is the time when you figure out who you are and what you are capable of.  How are you going to do that without trying new things and going new places?  I know that you can accomplish so much and I look forward to what is ahead for you.  I hope you have a fantastic day my goofy beautiful girl!  I am very proud of the person you are and are becoming, even though you drive me INSANE!  I love you!

I'm Not A Selfish Person, But Apparently I Need To Be...

So anyone who knows me knows that I would do anything for anyone within my power.  What most people don't know or realize that 90% of this is at my own expense.  A recent ending of a long time friendship has had me re-evaluating my life.  When did being a nice caring person who would do anything for the important people in her life automatically make you a doormat?  I don't want to be anyone's doormat!  I am a firm believer in owning up to your own shit and being responsible.  We are humans and we make mistakes.  Don't try to push that onto other people.  It isn't fair.

So after two weeks of feeling like a horrible person for not doing anything wrong, I've decided that I need to be more selfish.  I can't keep putting my own life on hold to help those who will never appreciate my efforts or understand the sacrifice that I make.  I have been stuck not pursuing my own dreams and my own life because everyone else around me mattered more.  Even though putting others before yourself is usually perceived as a good thing it has been my curse, because when do I matter more?

So I am starting my new year's resolution early.  I'm still having trouble accepting the end of this friendship, but for now I'm going to put on some lipstick and get through the day.  If I don't care of me, no one will.  For now on it is all about me... if you don't like it, suck it!
