The Escape of My Fishy.....

Today I got married to my boyfriend Ben of a year and half. Well actually, it'll be exactly a year and half in three more days. We rushed to the courthouse right after work. It was like three thirty p.m.; Ben had called earlier and had been told that the judge leaves at four thirty. When we got there,the lady told us that there was a sixty dollar fee for the license. Cash. No checks. Between the both of us, we had $43.oo. We ran across the street to an ATM machine. Got the cash. Got our license. Went to the fourth floor for the judge to officiate it. He was a nice judge. Ten minutes later, I was Mrs. Daniels.
So today was good so far. Then when we were in my room, I noticed my fish' tank was dirty. I decided I was going to change it. Before I go on any farther, I have or had a dark purple with a tinge of blue beta fish named Mr. Grumpy Gills by Ben. I picked up his tank, brought it to the bathroom sink and proceeded to pour out the dirty water. You know what happened next... before I could put him in the backup container, he fell into the bowl and wriggled halfway into the drain! I tried to grab him but ended up scraping his side. I looked and saw the purple skin under my fingernails and cried out for Ben. He tried but couldn't get it. Then we called my roommate Ana. She, in her attempt, actually pulled out the drain thingy and next thing I know....Fishy's gone! I felt so bad. Mr. Grumpy Gills ( I call him Fishy) thought he was escaping to a better place. That's what my roommate said. " All drains lead to the ocean." Is that what Fishy thought? Was I a bad human? My roommate and my newly wed husband thought it was funny to throw in phrases from " Finding Nemo". It wasn't funny to me. I really wanted to it to work out. New husband, new apartment, and new pet. The really sad thing is I never took a picture of him. My Fishy, I miss you.

Life Lessons...

1. No man or woman is worth your tears, and the one who is, won't make you cry.

2. Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

3. A true friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.

4. The worst way to miss someone is to be sitting right beside them knowing you can't have them.

5. Never frown, even when you are sad, because you never know who is falling in love with your smile.

6. To the world you may be one person, but to one person you may be the world.


7. Don't waste your time on a man/woman, who isn't time on you.


8. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful.

9. Don't cry because it is over, smile because it happened.

10. There's always going to be people that hurt you so what you have to do is keep on trusting and just be more careful about who you trust next time around.

11. Make yourself a better person and know who you are before you try and know someone else and expect them to know you.

12 Don't try so hard, the best things come when you least expect them to.



REMEMBER: WHATEVER HAPPENS, HAPPENS FOR A REASON.

I dream of the perfect day...

This picture is what I imagine a perfect day would feel and look like. Absolutely perfect. :)

Jaded

Most days is not a good day for me. I used to be an optimistic person. Always looking for the bright side. The rainbow after the rain. I guess the places especially the most recent, and some people you meet along the way break you down. I know what you might be thinking. That if you are strong enough then you'll overcome anything that tries to bring you down. I used to be a firm believer in that. Not so much anymore. On some rare good days, maybe. It's just that when the same shit keeps happening over and over and the serenity prayer stops working... you get jaded.
