All Things Go: Part 2

Hello my lovelies. I promised you in the last installment that this post would not be as ....depressing. I received so many views on that last one, like 4 digits long. I am so appreciative of the fact that all of you take a good 5-10 minutes to sit here and listen to what lil ole me has to say. I really love when you all offer feedback, especially a one Kristy Pinedo-Pimental, who always personally contacts me to let me know what she thought about each blog I post.

Antywayz, I will try to make this blog more comical and reflect back on 2014.

But first, allow me to tell yall all about the Wake and the Funeral.
One thing about me, I hate people feeling sympathetic for me and taking pity on me. As I stated in the last blog, It's that vulnerability which I fear most. Anyway, There were many more people there than I originally thought there would be.Actually, let's do it like this. I love lists.

Top 5 weird/awkward/things about the WAKE

1. Aunt Lillie's awkward 2-minute long hug with my mom. 
2. My father's ex-wife and second-wife sitting on opposite sides of the aisle in front of my dad's body. 
3. Aunt Lillie almost falling and knocking over the casket.
4. The ton of people who told my mom she looked good in front of my dad's wife
5. The people who came to the viewing during the time specified for family

Top 5 things I did not like about the Funeral

1. The fact that I wasn't consulted about anything and kept out of the planning
2. One of my Aunts telling my mom she couldn't sit next to us, never bit my tongue harder
3. My Dad dressed in a white suit that got dingy as people touched it at the Wake
4. The casket was closed. 
5. The ugly obituary which is filled with grammatical errors.

Well I'm done talking about that. Didn't even bother going to the repast. Let's move on. 

Happy 2015!!! 

I just really wanted to reflect on 2014. Let's take a journey through the past.

Okay sooooo 2014 actually sucked. My dad got cancer and passed, I spent two weeks in agony in the hospital, my love life was crazy, I lost my best friend, my birthday was a fiasco, my grandma was in the hospital for 3 months....yeah, Anyway, I truly believe 2015 will be even greater, mostly because I believe my dad's death has sparked an incredible positive vibe in me. In about 2 weeks, I'll be taking a secret trip which probably I'll tell like 3 people where I'm going. It will be my first time traveling that far north. And I cannot wait to spend time with...Carwash ;)
