Hello everyone! Long time since I have posted... Therefore I suppose I should fill you in on why I have been so absent. Well, it's been a crazy roller coaster of summer, honestly. Well, to start off everything. I have a boyfriend. His name is Nic. So, I obviously spend a lot of time with him. He's wonderful and I don't know how I could have gotten through this summer without something so stable in my life. In June, I passed out in my bathroom while my friend was coloring my hair. Which led me to finding out I have an arrhythmia in my heart (short PR interval) to be exact. I got my lab done, and I am okay! Everything lab related showed that I need to change my diet and manage my stress better. I got put on a heart monitor and all it showed is that I have a strong normal heart, but I have a slight abnormality which is just going to be normal for me. In case anyone was wondering, I am perfectly fine. I no longer eat red meat, drink cokes, no sweet tea (which sucks), sweets, and I tend to try and stay away from anything greasy. I work out like a lot. I've started boxing, rock climbing, and just basically running a lot. I feel better, and I think I'm more tone body-wise than I was when I graduated high school. ON A LIGHTER NOTE, I got to go to Florida and Dallas. Florida was a trip with my dad, and Dallas was a nice little work weekend. Market was fantastic! Okay, so in July I went to Orlando with my boyfriend and his family. Universal is soooo different than what it used to be. Granted, I haven't been there in like eight years, so I guess that is expected. My mom is having surgery the end of this week, I'll spare the details. She's just getting some things looked at, but she'll be okay. Just fingers crossed and prayers sent my way if possible. Later tonight or tomorrow, I'll post about another big thing that happened this summer. I leave to go back to school on the fourth and then I'll be out of touch for about 2 weeks. I'll have lots to update after recruitment and of course the first week of school. YIKES!!! I'm changing my major AGAIN! I'm going to get my master's in early childhood education but keep my legal studies minor because I still want to be a nuclear (family) attorney. However, with a political science degree... It's really hard to get a job and what happens if I decide law school isn't for me??? So I really missed working with kids, and I'm changing my major. Soo yeah, that's about it.
Now that I've caught all of you up on myself :) of course, I have a lovely tangent to go on (as usual). Tonight's topic is marriage. In case any of you were wondering, there is absolutely zero ring on my finger. I just want to talk about this for a bit. Okay, the basics. Man/Wife combo, Man/Man combo, Wife/Wife combo what ever other preference there is... it's sacred. I feel that our generation either gets married because they feel they need to or because they have to due to poor decisions. To clarify, I don't mean poor decisions being just pregnancy. I mean to try and get them to stay or you feel that you need to get married to complete yourself. Whatever the excuse may be, let me be the first to tell you to slow the heck down. The average life span of a human being if they are healthy is like 70 and above. The average college student graduates at the age of 22-23. That's about a 50 year span to find someone and settle down and whatnot. Stop rushing into bad marriages. Now I'm not saying that you shouldn't ever get married in college or anything like that. However, I am saying that if you truly care about someone, they are worth the wait. You are going to spend the rest of your life together (hopefully), so why rush? Miley Cyrus is 4 days younger than me and she is engaged. I'm almost 20 and I'm in my second longest serious relationship. Granted, I don't like to date. It freaks me out, but that's a whole topic I'll get on another time. I'm sorry, but I'm not getting married anytime soon.
Okay, next issue with marriage. Love is love. REGARDLESS OF SEX OR PREFERENCE. This whole Chic-fil-a issue, I'm sorry, but this is up there with the whole gay marriage civil rights issue that's kinda big right now. Honestly, who cares. Sure, it is not your thing, you're heterosexual congratulations. We have a lot bigger issues like a guy that killed people in a movie theater because he thinks he is the joker. Get over it. Everyone deserves to be happy and love someone. It has nothing to do with you unless you know the person directly. Personally, I think gay marriage should be legal just because the wedding business would shoot through the roof, and I'm all for an economy boost whether it be in weddings or poodles, I really don't care. It's a touchy topic and I realize everyone has their opinions on it, and this is why I blog. These are my thoughts from brain to fingers, if you don't like it. Feel free to not read anything I post. I'm opinionated, deal with it. Until next time, keep an eye out for more posts about my life or something that ticks me off in society. It happens. Love you all, and please tell someone close to you that you love them. You never know when you won't get to see them everyday. It sucks.
Alpha love and all of mine,
Alexa :)
