I hope everyone had an amazing weekend. I know it's already Tuesday but I had Monday off from work so technically, today was my Monday.
I had quite the weekend. Went snowboarding all day Saturday at the Snowbowl in Flagstaff then was supposed to go to my friend's show but was way too pooped so I crawled in bed pretty early.
On Sunday, it was one of my best friends' bridal shower so I spent a lovely day with a few of my closest friends, drank some mimosas and had yummy food. The bride-to-be lives in California now so she was in town for the shower so we could all celebrate with her. It's so hard to get the group together these days since everyone's so busy and has different schedules so we try to cherish every little moment we have together.
I went back home to get some rest and decided to continue my Sunday funday since a good friend was in town for the bridal shower. We went out, had some drinks (I know.. I was a bad girl) and danced a little bit.
I woke up with a raging headache on Monday since my body's not used to all those drinks so I stayed in bed for awhile then i decided to head to the gym for some cardio to sweat off the hangover before my training session. I knew Kevin would kick my butt even harder if he knew I was hung over so I had to get rid of it before I got my butt kicked.
I'm at a point of my life where my friends are getting engaged, married and having kids.. And I do feel somewhat of pressure that I should be looking for that myself but I don't want to force myself by online dating or anything. I believe that if it's meant to happen, it will just happen. I've been single for a little over a year now and have been spending a lot of time to work on myself and my happiness. I feel good about where I'm at with my life and I feel as though I'm ready to share the happiness with someone special.
Anyone who's reading this, that are single and feeling the pressure to get hitched because of the age, I say screw it! Being single and loving life is way better than settling on someone just because you feel it's the right thing to do and that's what you're supposed to do. Remember, it's for the rest of your life, why not find someone that you can't absolutely live without rather than finding someone to just live with.
Anyway, I hope you all have a wonderful week and I'll cat you guys later!
Cheers,
J Bae
My sister is single and I try to remind her to enjoy it--all too often the single part of life passes by all too quickly and only years later you realize that actually, it was fun! :) It looks like you had an amazingly fun weekend--I've never gone snowboarding before!
ReplyDeleteHi Rachel, thank you for stopping by! Yes, I feel like so many people waste their single life looking for someone to settle down with when they should really use that time to explore themselves and making themselves happy. I feel like something or someone amazing will come along when you least expect it.
Deleteyou should try snowboarding! it's scary and frustrating at first but it's highly addictive!! :) Have an amazing day Rachel!
I have a boyfriend but I'm still feeling the pressure because of all my friends getting married and having babies, even though I myself don't feel like I'm at that point yet! I still want to travel, focus on my career.. etc. I think nowadays people get married at all ages and the right time could come at any time in your life :) beautiful pictures! and at least you're working off the drinks - I can't drag myself to the gym after a night out :( I admire you for doing that very much, haha!

Haha it was a struggle, trust me but i didn't want to get lectured by my trainer so that pushed me harder! Don't feel pressured, it's your life, nobody else's. Do things that make your happy :) Thanks for stopping by Alice! Have an amazing rest of the week!
DeleteOh man. Here recently, my biological clock has been noticeably ticking. I'm all "no, let's wait until we can financially have kid." and my clock is all like "but look at all the cutesy clothes and shoes and moments." That darn clock.
ReplyDeleteOh goodness, i feel like women go through that.. I used to NEVER want babies but now i'm kind of open to that idea but I know i won't be ready anytime soon! well, i'll need to date someone first i think lol. But I am super excited about their cute outfits too haha my poor babies
