Bake something for someone.
Have you ever noticed how therapuetic baking can be? because I have. you follow directions. add things together. mix things. sometimes things that dont really seem like they should go together. and then next thing you know, something awesome comes out of it. sometimes its that way in life. when you least expect it things come together like that.
Doesn't happen overnight
but you turn around
And a month's gone by
and you realize you haven't criedI'm not giving you a hour or a second or another minute longerI'm busy getting stronger

day 30 - further your career.
take a step to further your career.
this could be anything. go on an interview. ask for a raise. do something that gets you noticed. for me. it was interview. in 4 weeks i can start my career. so i'm realizing i need to start interviewing. start making connections. start my future now. I went on an interview. A place that i thought was just alright. but i went anyway. and guess what? it was awesome. interview went well. the place was amazing. and they offered me a job. with an amazing pay. and benefits. I couldnt even believe it. I was so caught up in missing him that i wasnt focusing on me. and the first time i do? this happens. life couldnt be better.

day 29- try something new
try a new place.
I found an article on OC register that had the top 10 best new bars in OC. There was this cool place called the "crosby". it described it as "hipster heaven". come on. what could be better? tattoo galore? i'm in. and it was all day happy hour monday. priceless. So my friend and i went to check it out. guess what they have?? pbr. for a DOLLAR. thats so cheap. you never find it like that. I mean, its pbr. its cheap anyway. but no bar has it for that. It was a small place, and not very crowded since we went at 5. but i could totally see it being slammin at night. definitely going to have to check back here. :)
The scars of your love remind me of us,
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all,
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless,
I can't help feeling,
We could have had it all,

Day 26 - Go out with the girls
Go out with the girls tonight.
So the girls wanted to do girls night. Dinner and drinks. I dressed up. I did my hair. My make up. Put on my new necklace from shopping the other day. Put on heels. Felt good....for the first time in a while. Felt pretty. Went to dinner. Had a Spicy cucumber jalepeno margarita. So good. Ate shrimp...which i hate. and just talked. Not about him. We went to a new bar after. Something we'd never heard of...but decided to try. It was really cool. really different than anything I've ever been too. really loungey. had a beer. talked about life. they brought him up. its like i can never get away. i said my piece and changed the subject. Before I wanted to talk about him...all the time. because I couldnt get over it. now.. ill talk about anything but him. got looks from boys. had a boy buy me a drink. told you i looked good tonight. :) forgot about him. focused on me. and the boy that bought me a drink.
Everytime you get up
And get back in the race
One more small piece of you
Starts to fall into place

Day 25 - Take a new Class
Take a class.
Any kind of class. At the gym. At the community. At the school. Anything. I went to the gym and took a mat pilates class. SO FUN!. I hate yoga so I didnt know how it would be. but it was way more fun than i thought. Maybe it was because of the instructor. He was ridiculously gay. And i mean....flaming. He was too funny. He says "In and out" when youre breathing. then starts singing the in and out song. he says "rollie pollie'' when hes telling you to pull your tummy in. Or his other favorite is "squish your tummies". but he has an accent, and is very clearly gay. So its just really funny. He plays awesome music during the workout. Its not a slow class like yoga. Its almost more dancy. I really enjoyed it. And im already sore as heck. and i didnt think about him. I was so focused on myself and making myself better, that he was the last thing on my mind. I took it with a girlfriend so we giggled the whole way through it. I'm starting to be me again. I dont think of it all the time. I dont cry all the time. I dont miss him all the time.
Cause when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend, till you break
Cause its all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad you get strong
Wipe your hands shake it off
Then you Stand,
