Well, it's a new year and hopefully a new me.  i've been doing some serious thinking...  about who i am.  who i really am.  and i have no idea.  i've spent my whole life catering to other people and meeting their needs and never really figuring out what my needs and wants are.  remember that scene in "runaway bride" where julia robert's character is trying all those different types of eggs and she launches into this speech about how she always just eats whatever her man at the time eats but never really decided which type she actually liked best?  well, that is how my life is.  i've always just sort of gone with the flow of things and never really been decisive about most things.  but all that stops here and now.  i'm determined to be my own person and be in control of my life, because after all, it is my life.  among my discoveries about myself are funny little things such as, i do not like bubble gum flavored gum.  i've chewed it for years and i don't even like it.  i like mint much better.  also, i've found that i really like perfumes with a hint of vanilla.  i like apple scented candles and cinnamon scented plug-ins.  i like love songs and i don't want kids.  i never really knew these things about myself.  how crazy is that.  self-discovery is awesome.  i can't wait to see what else i find out about myself as time progresses.
