Randombling: A 5 minute long unedited random stream of consciousness produced by a nerd for nerds.

#nowplaying: Breaking The Habit – Linkin Park

I’m writing this trying to think about where I’m going and where I’m at. I’ve had a really hard time this last year, and sometimes, I let the fear and anguish in my life consume me entirely.

When I think about all the decisions I’ve made in the past year, I don’t think about all the positive things I’ve accomplished, I think about the negative like a fool. A few nights ago, I sent the lovely leader of the nerdiness Miss @JenFriel an email. It basically outlined all the stuff I’d gone through and why I was in such a dark place. She told me that I what needed to do was suck it up, have fun, and she basically gave me a kick in the ass that I needed.

I realized at that moment that I WAS unapologetically awesome, and that I had accomplished so much in the last year. I lost 50lbs last year, and kept it off, I had my name in the credits of two videogames, I’ve written short stories, poems, I started writing a novel, and I’ve kept doing what I love even through all this turmoil.

Sometimes, I just get caught up in the moment. When that happens, it’s when those accomplishments really mean something, and we reflect on what has made our lives so positive.

So thank you Jen, you really do talk nerdy to me lover ;)
