Wow. I think this edition is going to take quite a lot of thought, and even though I've technically had an extra day to think about it, I just don't think I will be able to write about 10 different things and stick to those...but here goes anyway.
(in no particular order)
#1 : This has happened on multiple occasions and everytime it happens, I get a little teary eyed. I'm sure most women can relate to this... Have you ever been in line at a department store and it's coupon day, and 'What the Hell!' you didn't get the memo. I mean, the BIG memo, like the 75% off coupon day memo. You're standing in line surrounded by a sea of women with carts spilling over with clothing and the like. Why does everyone have so much SHIT in their carts?! It's COUPON DAY, and you don't have a coupon. So sad, you feel so dissed. I mean, like REALLY dissed. You hope that when you get to the cashier and she/he asks you if you have a coupon and you say no, that the person standing behind you in line doesn't notice. Because how can you be so STUPID. Then suddenly, the customer who stands at the cashier now, in front of you, finishes checking out and turns to you and says, "Do you have a coupon? If you don't, here, take mine." And you thank and thank and thank her over and over and over and over until eventually you feel weak in the knees and fall the the ground and kiss her feet.
#2 : I've always had a love for music. I am not a famous musician, but I love to perform. I used to play the alto saxophone in Junior High. I was the only girl who played the saxophone. I was one of the better players and the boys would get a little jealous when my teacher would praise me. So... when it came award time, all the boys went up and got special awards, and I didn't get any. I was sad, and I felt like such...a girl. Then, at the very end of the ceremony, my teacher announced one last award. One super special award. It was the 'Unsung Hero Award' and my band leader gave it to ME and praised how wonderful of a musician I was, and how committed I was to making beautiful music and how I would never brag and I was modest etc...and that I should be praised for that alone. Being a great musician without having to tell people I was. She was a wonderful instructor.
#3 : My boyfriend loves me for who I am. Not who I was, or who I will be. He loves ME. It is quite amazing. I couldn't ask for anything more. I have dated men in the past who I thought loved me for me, and when I saw through all the bullshit I realized why they really loved me, whether it be for the way I looked, my 'exotic' ethnicity, my musical talent, my age, or the fact that I was a girl who just wasn't going to 'hurt' them. I have finally realized what true love is, because of the way my boyfriend loves me. This is the nicest thing he has ever done for me...love me the way I am.
#4 : I'm realizing that this list is going to take me forever. And so I will have to end the rest of the list like this...
#5 : My
#6 : Parents
#7 : Gave
#8 : Me
#9 : Life
#10 : without that -- i wouldn't be here writting this list which seems to have gotten a little of topic. NO?Labels: Ten on Tuesday, thoughts |
