Goddamn, I Miss That Girl

Losing a friend is one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to experience. When you are born into this world, you have your family, but your friends are the family you choose. I’m not very close to my family and I cherish each and every one of the people who have come into my life and became part of my found family. When you lose anyone, it hurts, but as a part of life you expect the inevitability of witnessing your family die. You believe your friends will be around until you grow old. In my 29 years, I’ve learned the hard way that this isn’t always the case multiple times over, and last week I lost another friend who died before their time.

Love Lockdown? More Like Jaw Lockdown…

Nothing at all.

Ever have one of those days where everything seems to be going wrong? I’ve been going through a bit of that this week. I suffer from TMJ pain and I somehow strained a muscle by my jaw, causing the right side of my face to swell. I could barely move my jaw at all, and I was getting nerve pain sent up the side of my face to my head.

Happy New Year From Me To You

Wishing a Happy New Year from me to you. May 2010 bring you all the happiness you deserve. The past is behind us and the possibilities of the future are endless.

The best thing about New Year’s is that we all get to start over. Make the most of it. Besides, 2009 was so last year.

Down To The Wire

Stress is a bitch.

I’m one of those people who tend to smile and tell everyone that everything is going to be alright, even if I’m not sure it will be. I love cheering people up and making them laugh. I don’t like to burden others with my own problems because I don’t want people to worry about me. I keep everything that is bothering me all bottled up until I can’t take it anymore and then I let go for a moment, but just a moment. I usually get up, brush myself off, and keep going.

See, it’s not that I’m afraid of expressing myself, since anyone who knows me knows that I frequently speak my mind. Over the past few years, more often than not, I’ve kept my raw emotions about my own life to myself and only shared them with a few people that I trust. Because of this, I feel like I’ve deprived myself of things in my life because I was afraid of letting go. Why? Well, mostly because my harshest critic is myself. I don’t like people to see me weak.

My Love Affair With Music

I Love Music.My name is April and I’m an addict. My drug of choice is music. Just saying the word music makes my stomach feel all tingly like I have butterflies in there. From the time I wake up in the morning, to the time I go to sleep, I live for music. I can always be found listening to something new I found or a classic that is timeless. It all sounds the same to me and I just can’t help swayin’ to the groove.
