Ok, I’ve Succumbed.

By Melgrace5 @helgrace5

Ok, I’ve succumbed.

Ok, so for the longest time I’ve dabbled with the idea of creating a blog. Sure, I’ve done the xanga thing and the emo teenager overshare (I hope not to fall into that again..crosses fingers). I do miss writing though, so this will be a great outlet for that and just sharing my thoughts with strangers and friends.

I’ve always considered myself and overshar-er, if that’s a word. My closest friends can attest. I have no problem sharing, I’ve got no secrets to hide…maybe? Also, why the title? Well, despite my moments of outgoing-ness, I will always be an introvert at heart. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that. I believe I practice a good balance. I’ve just always been an observer more than anything, a good listener if you will. I don’t really enjoy being the center of attention, it makes me uncomfortable, once in a while is okay. We all need a dose of excessive attention once in a while right?

Anyways, onto the daily life, I’d hate to falsely advertise. Night shift last night, and back on a night shift tonight. I know I’m a mere and youthful 23, some think 16, and boy do I feel old. My knees click and my back is sore. How is that possible? Probably from not drinking my vitamins every morning (cue parents’ I told you so) and a lack of milk. The back being sore thing? Innate to being a nurse. Good thing it’s not sore ALL the time, there’s a plus.

I cannot STOP listening to my current playlist, it’s been on repeat for a month now I swear:

  • The A Team- Ed Sheeran
  • You Got Me- Colbie Callait
  • Bubbly- Colbie Callait
  • If Only- Dave Matthews Band
  • As It Seems- Lily Kershaw

I’m in a good place right now. Happy with my career, a long time coming (over exagerrating considering I’m only 23, but whatever). Happy with my social life and my love life. Until next time!

Love the life you live, live the life you love
