Amy Through The Ages!!

Yesterday I bought a 500gb hard drive in a bid to save all the photos and music I love from being lost on my old laptop. Seriously, that thing is a relic, its over 10 years old and its on its way out! I hadn't used it in over 2 years when I hauled it out to rescue the photo files! 

I think you can imagine what kinds of retro fabulous (I use the term loosely, I was an "emo" when this computer encased my whole life) digital gems I found!! 

 Have a blast from the past, see me, Amy, through the ages!!

This was the earliest one I could find.
My 17th birthday... 

I've Had A Little "Me" Time...

...And now I feel much more capable of being there for everyone I love!

This week got off to a bad start but today seems to be making up for it. Its been a very long time since I've had to lock myself into the bathroom and cry. Incidentally, I hope its a long time until I need to again! It wasn't something I felt nostalgic about or anything of the sort, in fact, it gave me a headache that I had for hours later... So at least I am happy about being very level lately! Thanks to Kayliegh for reminding me I'm allowed to have a bad day, I appreciate the reminder.

So between yesterday and right now, things that have made me smile are as follows...

I Think I've Found It!!!

My Niche, that is. 

A good chat with a good friend (Thanks Darragh!!) tonight has drawn me to the conclusion that helping people not only makes the people I talk to and help, happy, but it makes me happy too. It gives me a sense of purpose. 

Well. 
This is new. 
Having a genuine idea what my life could be spent doing?!

Totes bizarre!! I've never known what I want to do. Holy shit! Excuse me while I promptly freak out!! 

Hmmmmmm *breathes loudly*

Well when Chris wakes up tomorrow he better be as jazzed as I am!!
