This holiday season has been a particularly bittersweet time for me, because I'm in a transitional period of my life. A few months ago, I broke up with my boyfriend of three years, and all of my friends have either moved away or are in serious relationships. For the time being, I'm alone. I have my family, and they are wonderful, but I wish I had a couple girls around with whom I could go out and have some fun.
I know once I get my own place and move out, I will meet new people, but in the meantime, I'm in the same apartment and I'm stuck at home on the weekends. It sucks, and it's depressing. However, I know it's all part of my life changing, so I just have to accept it as the temporary suckage that it is.
I try to make the best of it, and I'm optimistic that 2009 will be the year of Colette. I hope to go back to school, get a new apartment for me and my kitty, and meet some cool people. I want to live my life again, and I'm doing everything I can to get back to the person I used to be.
This past relationship took a lot out of me, but it also gave me life lessons and made me grow as a person. There were bad times, but there were also good ones, and I will always have a special place in my heart for my ex. I wish him all the happiness in the world, and I hope 2009 is a great year for him as well.
