You know when you reach a certain age and you find yourself needing to grow up? Well
I am at this point in my life. On my 26th birthday I realized a lot of things about myself
and not a in a good way I might add. I mean at 26 years old I should have things in control, I should know who I am and what I stand for and what I plan to accomplish, but I couldn't see it. So after spending about an hour and a half crying my eyes out in my best friend car, I came to the conclusion that I am fat, broke and severely depressed. Don't get me wrong I have a good life, I think that I just got too comfortable with the things that I knew I could change.
Then I thought to myself “Khai” (Oh yeah that’s my name by the way lol) “Yes Self” I answered “Why do you think your fat, broke and depressed” and I could not answer it for the life of me.
I mean, I have friends I am quite social with a beautiful personality, funny as hell and have always been "The Fat Chick" in my group of friends and I was OK with that. I have never tried to be anything other than me;I love food - I mean who doesn't? I just think that my love for food has become a boyfriend that I just can't get rid of,which I think has contributed to me being fat LOL.
So if I could see these good qualities in me why does my life feel like it is in a state of chaos? I realized at that point I needed to change my way of thinking and put a plan into action. So I made a list and checked it twice (hence the Christmas reference lol) of things I needed to do and change in my life and I thought I would share it with you guys.
Khai's Lists
. Lose 90 pounds (Break up with my Boyfriend)
. Try to save around 10,000 dollars
. Cut off all my hair and go natural (which I have a ready done)
. Get a drivers license
Seems like a lot to accomplish in a year huh? Well I look at it like this - I may succeed or I
may fail miserably but I would have at least tried and followed through with something for once in my life.
So in the midst of me trying to change my life and finding out who I am, I thought you guys might enjoy coming along on this crazy ride with me.
This blog has become my new diary;who knows what can happen..all I know is I may inspire someone do something great.. I might annoy the hell out of my readers or you may genuinely enjoy it. Either way I would have done something great - for me.
Thanks for listening and reading

I am not sure you got the comments I just left. Khai, you are amazing! I make lists as well. They keep me on track and allow me to see my accomplishments and measure my efforts. Keep listening to your inner voice. You are a beautiful person inside and out.

Really enjoyed it great read!
ReplyDeleteYou know what I learned Khai? that people don't think about us in the way we do or in the amount of thought that we do. I is comforting to know that it is just our brain playing tricks on us.
ReplyDeleteKeep writing and sharing. And I know you are fabulous Miss Khai!
