So, I am officially engaged.
After waiting 4 years the slow torture I have allowed Kenny to endure has payed off...
It makes me happy.
I think it makes me be a little more relieved since he has made "the committment". It takes the little doubts out of my mind.
I like it.
It makes me aroused.
I love Kenny. He's the one.

I tell myself lies daily to ignore what's really going on.
I tell myself that things will change, that people aren't who they portray.
I tell myself lies to keep me sane, to keep my hopes intact.
Nevertheless, I know the truth behind it all.
But Lies keep me afloat.
Lies keep me ignorant.
I live in blissful ignorance.
Why can't I stop an tell myself the truth?
That everything is not perfect, that I want to leave far away and never come back, that I want to run away from everything because I can't handle the truth.
I sit after every altercation and lie to myself that it will soon change.
I can't lie anymore, I'm running out of excuses for you.
I can't lie anymore, I'm running out of excuses for myself.
But if I stop, the bliss is gone, and there will only be sadness... I've been there.
I don't want to crawl back into the darkness that had taken over me so long ago.
The same darkness you helped me overcome.
I want to tell you the truth, but we are both one in the same.
You tell lies to protect you, I tell lies to cope.
I want change, I want bliss without lying to myself.
I want to be truthful to myself and to you.
I don't know how much longer it will take until my lies catch up with me and I'm lost in my own imagination of what reality should be.

I sat and pondered as to why I keep on "living vicariously" through my friends after a comment someone made.
Basically, he said "You should not want to live your life vicariously through single people, unless you really want to be single."
It made me think about what I really wanted. Did I really want to settle down or do I really want to be single just to live a more adventurous life?
I'm apprehensive. I mean, I get excited at the fact that my single friends are going through this journey to find love in unexpected places. It's almost like they're living a novel, even if they don't realize it. (then again does the protagonist of a story really know that a story is being read about his/her life?)
A part of me craves the romantic adventure. Simply because of the twists and turns life takes you when you are ruled by emotion in finding someone suitable. Then again it has it's draw backs of broken hearts, and desperation.
At the same time, I like having stability in love. It's quite fullfilling. You don't have to look any longer and you can concentrate on making it work ( the level of difficulty is higher than just finding someone suitable in some cases). I can concentrate on all the other aspects of my life..
I think what I may be feeling is bored. Not with the relationship, because I can change the things we do to make it more exciting. I'm feeling bored with life...
I'm living this routine, daily and I want to get out of my routine. Sometimes I want to get a part-time job so I can go to school full-time and enjoy a little more leisure time. I feel so trapped. I know there is always ways to change it, but I'm not sure if I'm ready to let go of some responsibility to be a little happier.
I guess, I want some change. Life should not be a long tedious routine with no end, no pleasure, no adventure.
Something's gotta give, and I think it's me...

First and foremost, It looks like I WILL pass my math class after all.
I messed up on the second test, so it dropped my grade average to a "C", but I think that's fair considering I am not that great at math.
I may have to take the CLAST if I don't pass Statistics, but once we get there, we'll see.
Kenny and I are doing great, and we'll probably be able to get all those important people in our lives presents by Christmas.
Work is OK. My boss seems pleased with my efforts, so I just have to keep it up.
I took an FIU career evalulation, and it seems like I'm on the right track in pursuing my Psychology degree. It's everything I'm looking for and according to their analysis my skills meet the needs for that career.
I'm going to focus more on getting my bachelors than anything else. I may be able to get it faster by doing most of my classes online, which will be my major goal.
It seems like my job currently has some definite opportunities for advancement with a Bachelors in Psychology, specifically in Organizational/Industrial, and who knows, I may become a Human Resources Manager in the future.
After I complete my bachelors, we'll see how it goes in getting a Masters, it may open even more doors. I think that if I stay here, I will be able to get all the experience necessary to become great.
My boss is a great role model, she's a minority, a woman and runs her own business, and vocational institute. I think that is incredibly admirable. Well, see where the road takes me. But I definitely need to stick with school for awhile.
I hope all my friends are doing ok. I haven't really kept that much in contact with them since I've been busy working, studying and taking care of my personal things.
Adulthood has it's pros and cons. Right now everything is looking up. I guess I had to just figure out what I really needed in life, and what my skills are good for.

Slow speech, random banter, loss of concentration, constant daydreaming, visions, etc...
I believe I am definitely Schizo...
I may also be a hypochondriac, but at this point I'm not taking any chances..
I don't want to be all crazy and shit.

I have insurance so I'm definitely going to a psychologist.
I read that early schizophrenia is commonly misdiagnosed with depression, which I actually was about 3 years ago. I took medication for it, but then stopped taking it.
I know it seems like a huge thing to be called "schizo", but it's also genetic. And about 7 years ago, my aunt had to be rushed to a psych ward because she had a vision that the kids she was taking care of (she was a nanny), were getting murdered by the father.
I'm a little scared, but I think that if I take care of it now, I will stop it from going further.
I'm aiming for 2nd generation drugs like Valium, or Lithium... because 1st generation has too many side effects.
I may also be a hypochondriac, but at this point I'm not taking any chances..
I'm also practicing no daydreaming... since it may cause visions and stuff.
I'm trying to take precaution.
I don't want to be all crazy and shit.

Lately, I've been having visions.
Visions of things that may change my life, and things that are going on around me.
I just had a vision of one of my guy friends. He was tortured, he was crouching down in pain, mental anguish, with tears in his eyes...
My visions have started to become a little scary. I don't know when this started, but It's a little scary when one minute you're watching TV and chillin' and the other minute you all of a sudden see someone you have least expected to see, and something aweful seems to be happening to them.
Another thing is, that it's really awkward to know how some situations are going to play out. It's like a switch in my head is telling me how things are going to happen, and then allows me enough time to change it, sometimes not enough time.
I want to ask my friend how he is doing. What is going on with him. I'm not sure how important it is to help him. But I am feeling an obligation to just inquire about what is happening.
I'm a little scared.
I'm starting to think that maybe I need to get my brain checked. One of the symptoms of brain tumors is being dellusional, and in some cases "visions".
I tried explaining this to a couple of the people I know. They had mixed reactions. I really don't know who to go to about this. I don't know who to talk to about this craziness I envision...
And the worse part is I cannot control it. It just happens out of nowhere..
I thought that maybe I can use it to win the Lottery but it doesn't work that way.. it's really just random.
I'm nuts... What if I'm on the verge of really losing my mind?
I don't know.. maybe I've been watching too many movies, TV shows, etc.
Arrrghhh... what is up with this?
