Why do we fall in love with who we fall in love with? Why do we fall in love with and stay with people who treat us badly, disrespect us, hurt us? Love is irrational.
Why do we let ourselves be controlled by another person? Why do we let people hit us? Are we so afraid of being alone that we'd rather be kept under someone else's thumb or beaten bloody? Ask those people who are controlled or beaten and they'll tell you that they love the person that's treating them that way, but why? How can they love someone that does those things to them? Love is irrational.
Why do we do crazy stupid things for the ones we love? Love is irrational.
How long does it take to fall in love with someone? Is there a set amount of time it takes to fall in love? Is there such a thing as love at first sight? A mother and father love their newborn baby right away, whether it is their natural child or they adopted the baby, a person falls in love with their new pet right away, new friends who meet and click can love each other, why can't we fall in romantic love with another human as instantly? Love is irrational.
Yes, love is crazy and irrational and makes us do crazy things, but we all seek it. We all crave it. Would do almost anything for it.
I've never been afraid to fall in love. I've been hurt many times, had many broken hearts, but my heart always heals, the hurt doesn't last forever. I have been with people who hurt me, controlled me, but they never broke me. I have done crazy, stupid things for the men I love and I'd do it again. I have no regrets about the love I've felt, the men I've fallen for, the things I've done for them, I've learned something from every broken heart, every man, ever crazy thing I've done. I've said it before and I'll say it again, I'd rather fall in love and have my heartbroken, then to never love at all.
Love is irrational.

Mid-Term
Halfway through my first term and I am getting A's in both my classes. It feels GREAT!
I was so worried about being successful in school and it's been fairly easy so far. I know it will only get more difficult as I go along, but I'm really looking forward to the challenge.
One thing that has really contributed to my success in school so far is the support of all my family and friends. One friend in particular has been such a help, I couldn't do this without him.
Thank you, B, for everything. Your help with my math and English questions, your support and encouragement, mean the world to me. I won't let you down!
A couple weeks ago, I met with an advisor and I have declared a major. When I decided to go back to school, I didn't have any clear direction, other than wanting to get a basic 2 year degree, but once I was there and started thinking about it, I want a more specialized degree that will help me make more money and have the life I want.
So, I have decided to get an accounting degree. It goes right along with the work I've been doing for the last 6 years, which gives me an advantage, since I have some experience in that field.
I know it won't be easy, but with that degree, I'll have so many options when I'm done with school, I think it's the way to go.
If someone would have told me a year ago, that as of Winter 2012, I'd be a straight A college student going for an accounting degree, I would have laughed my ass off! Now that I'n here though and doing it, I feel like I'm right where I'm supposed to be, to do anything else, that would be the joke.
