The One Who Taught Me About Myself

The main reason I chose this blog theme was because
I had just gotten out of a three year relationship.

Not by choice unfortunately. 

So I viewed all relationships as shitty ones because I was in such a downer state of mind. 
All I wanted to do was expose those relation-shits 
and show people that dating aint that grand! 

But what I learned while a "blogger" 
is that you are going to go through tons of relation-shits, 
but you have to go through some shitty experiences
to get a meaningful relationship in the end. 

Going on crappy dates, sitting through awkward conversations, 
and drunken mistakes will make you appreciate the positive relationship
you finally reach and appreciate the person that much more. 

That is, once you find them...

Although I was trying to get over a relationship,
getting myself out there and going out on dates,
which unfortunately turned out to be relation-shits
taught me a lot about myself and my alcohol tolerance. 

I now know that I cannot go to a beer festival, bar hop, go on a successful date and 
control my actions all in one night. 
I need to keep them on separate occasions.

I have also learned that its ok to be my crazy, sarcastic, silly, awkward self. 

While I am still going through relation-shits to find that one good relationship, 
I am enjoying those relation-shit mishaps a little more each time
because I know by the end of the date, 
I can blog about it and entertain others while having a good time poking fun at myself. 

I mean how many people can say they influenced the creation of a party catch phrase?!?

"Let's party like it's a first date!"

My life...Out of control.
