Guess Who's Back In The Motherfucking House?!

I'm back bitches.

Back from yummy, sweet, cold, windy, whatthehellkindofweatherWASthat Greece. I went to bed as soon as I got back home (5pmish) which was probably a mistake. I had only planned on sleeping for a couple of hours, but when my eyes opened up all nice and bright eyed at about 2am, I figured I'd made a carnal boo boo when it comes to jet lag. Oh well, I will try again today.

Sigh. Right now I'd be sunbathing on a glorious beach. All covered in SPF goodness so I wouldn't burn.

In a nutshell, Greece was great. It was one of those trips that you learn something about yourself. I went with girls who, when we got there were merely work acquaintances, but coming back, we definitely have a special bond that can only be understood amongst the three of us. It was more than just partying until 5am and sleeping on the beach until 7pm. There was more to it ... we all had something to discover about ourselves, and we were all there to help discover it for each other.

We met amazing people, some who will forever be in our minds. And hopefully some who we will keep in touch with. We have experienced amazing times ... swimming in the Aegean Sea ... coming out of our comfort zones ... meeting people from different parts of the world ... just amazing, amazing experiences.

It made me realize that I have spent in the last few years way too much time on social networking sites on the internet. Don't get me wrong, the people I've met on here are great and those I keep in touch with, I'm glad that I do ... but I just felt like I was hiding behind here. Twitter. Tumblr. Blogger. It just felt like I was hiding. And this trip helped me to realize that there are so many things out there for me that I never would've imagined possible. I can't spend the time that I do on the internet and have time for the things that truly make me feel at home and peaceful. This is mainly dealing with twitter as that has been my newest obsession. I deleted my tumblr blog about a week before I left on my trip which was probably the best thing that I did for myself. I like twitter, but I can't be on it all the time. And I want to get back to blogging, because let's face it, I love to write my thoughts out. Sometimes they make no sense, but when I read back on them, I surprise myself with how insightful I find them.

Anyways ... I am back. And things are going to be different with me. And they will be the best times of my life. I'm just feeling an excitement for life right now. It's a great feeling.
