Last night I went out with some of my friends from the TESOL course. When I say out, I mean out. Almost two bottles of whiskey were drank before we even left the hostel. More drinks were consumed at both clubs we went to. So when 4:00 am rolled around, it felt like 30 minutes had past. I had so much fun, and today have had a relaxing lie in with plenty of water, my usual breakfast from down the street, and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets' Nest.
I take a break to check facebook when I see a wall post from somebody. It says, "Congratulations Jared and Jessica Stobaugh. The wedding was beautiful." I was told by somebody that it was this weekend, but completely forgot. Furthermore, I was having a fabulous night out with girl friends and cute boys while on the other side of the world, my ex of almost 6 years was getting married...to the girl he started dating very soon after we broke up.
It just hit me today how lucky I am that our relationship did not work out. I can't imagine getting married right now, and to somebody completely wrong for me. I'm sure I would feel upset if I was in Gainesville, but the fact that I have been in Thailand for a month and about to move to South Korea is just icing on this single lady's cake.
Things that don't work out in life are just as important as the things that do.
Ok, back to reading! I must finish 300 pages by tomorrow morning so I can give my copy to an Irish guy before he leaves.
PS- I am reading in the lobby, and looked over at one point noticing that two other people are reading The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. My Irish friend is also reading that one. I love it!
The best revenge is success and happiness!
ReplyDeleteThings work out as they should! Imagine your life if that HAD worked out....you'd be missing out on all this fun! And it does sound like you're having a lot of fun...
ReplyDeleteGirl, you are in the exact place you should be, doing exactly what you should be doing! There is a reason things turn out the way that they do! Have fun and enjoy life to the fullest!
