Today I had a typical panic attack over something stupid. I thought I was done with those forever, but it scares me that they are still possible. Talking to Brandon made it go away though… I can’t believe I’ve let myself get this way. So many people have told me that I’m irrational. But maybe that’s because I’ve been hurt so many times.

So my boyfriend came to visit my house for the weekend. It was easily the best five days of my summer. My whole family liked him, even my brother. Getting his approval is not easy. Here’s a recap of what we did this weekend:
Thursday: He drove six hours so we just watched a movie in my basement since he was so tired. He gave my parents little presents when he walked in, which was adorable.
Friday: Had some alone time in the morning which was great. Then we went to the gym and I showed him some of my favorite restaurants for lunch and dinner. Saturday: Spent the day in New York City. It was a lot of fun even though it was super hot out. We saw Time’s Square, the view from the top of Rockefeller Center, and ate at a really cute health food cafe. We even took a picture outside PWC, where he has his internship this summer. I’m happy that I was able to show him New York since he’s never been there. Every American should experience it once.
Sunday we did the same thing as Friday basically.
Monday was my extended family’s annual Memorial Day barbecue. It was interesting because I brought a significant other to it for the first time. It was definitely a lot of food and laughs as it usually is. I hope he had fun!
Yesterday was his last day here and we got really sad that we would be away from each other for a whole month. Thats how I know that he cares about me. We both get really upset whenever we have to be apart. But we’ll make it. I’m already looking forward to meeting his family in Pittsburgh on the Fourth of July.
Im now sitting at work, bored out of my mind and procrastinating the pile of files I have to organize. Blah.
It’s been a great summer so far. I started work at my grandfather’s law firm in Roseland, which has been an interesting experience. As my co-worker says, the job is “half bitch work, half smartphone.” Well his job is at least. Since I’m a girl, I get to do all the jobs that the secretaries don’t want to do - sorting out case files, organizing things, and occasionally answering phones when the receptionist is out. Everyone is really nice to me there and the pay is much better than what I got for the last four years as a lifeguard.
Yesterday I had to organize one secretary’s case files from last year. It just boggled my mind that a secretary is able to get them that disorganized. I’m planning on finishing them today. I kind of want to go around to all of the secretaries and be like, give me your case files, I’m organizing them. Seeing things like that bothers me.
My boyfriend is so amazing. I am so lucky to have him. He’s actually coming to visit my house tomorrow and staying for all of Memorial Day Weekend. I really love him and I cannot wait to see him because it’s been about two weeks since we have seen each other in person. I cannot be happier :)
Haven’t really had much to update in awhile. I’ve been living up the second semester with my best friends and my boyfriend. It’s our one month anniversary today. Yay! Finally the two week curse is officially broken.
Finals are just about starting and I’m procrastinating from starting my Shakespeare paper by writing this in the library. Need time to kill before I meet up with my boyfriend at 10 after his test is over. I’m definitely looking forward to summer but at the same time I don’t want to leave everyone I’ve met here this year. It’s been amazing. Time to live up these next two weeks despite all the studying I have to do.

* We all got way drunker than we should have

* Danced our butts off again then went back to his room
Overall, a very successful weekend
It’s interesting how having a boyfriend gives me a different perspective on life. I feel like I’m a different person when I’m around him, but I’m also the same. You learn to appreciate what you thought were your flaws. He says those are things he likes the most about me. I don’t think I’ve ever been around someone so much without getting sick of them - but with him its different. I look forward to the next time I see him because he just makes me feel so good about myself. Tonight we are doing a workout ab circuit together and watching a movie.
I’m actually really nervous for him to come for our memorial day barbecue and meet my entire family. He’s definitely becoming one of the most important people in my life.
On that note, I don’t think I’d know what to do without the people I’ve met in college. I’d say at this point I’m the happiest I’ve ever been, knowing that i have such great friends around me. I don’t want this chapter in my life to end. It makes me sad that I’m already almost halfway done.
This campus is way too small.
Ran into my ex-boyfriend’s friend while in my current boyfriend’s room last night.
Not really much to update.
SUPER HAPPY :) Hope this feeling lasts!
