She's a Million Miles Away.

Hello?

Is this thing on?

Ah ... got it.  Now, is anyone out there??

It's been ages since I've last written a proper blog entry, I'll be amazed if anyone still visits this page!

As I'm sure everyone knows, a lot can happen in over a year.

Since the last time I've updated, I found a job I loved, fell more in love with the boy, maintained my good grades, and graduated university.  Of course, life had to balance the books, so the boy fell out of love with me and broke my heart, I didn't get accepted into any universities for my Master's degree, and I lost that job I was so fond of because the foundation got shut down.

Needless to say, it's been a roller coaster ride for the past year, especially with regards to my emotions.  It's funny how life always manages to throw you curve balls.  Unfortunately, I feel like all it's been doing is throwing me curve balls.  Maybe I should come to expect them, but I figure my luck has to turn around sometime, right?

In a previous entry from waaaaaaaaaaay back, I described how I'm a firm believer in "If it's meant to be, it will be." Lately I've had a hard time reconciling myself with that mantra, simply because of all the emotional anguish I've been going through.  That quote just seems so optimistic and unattainable.  However, last night as I was lying in bed, ready to fall asleep, I felt a glimmer of hope while thinking about that quote. I've lost things in the past that I'd really wanted to hold onto, but sometimes they came back to me when I least expected them to.  Obviously those things were meant to be and they'd returned to me after I'd moved on with my life and nearly forgotten.  Maybe this is just life's way of saying there are other things for me right now.  I need to go and figure me out again.  I need to find other things that make me happy and will help me grow.

Anyway ... I know this entry wasn't exactly up to my usual standard of entry, but I'm hoping to get back into this blogging business.  I'd forgotten what a good outlet blogging could be, especially with how my mind reels and races at times.  If you're still reading my blog, thanks for sticking around despite my long hiatus.  If you're new to my blog and stumbled upon it somehow in the past few days - welcome!

Until next,
Adrienne
