"I don't know them like that, I ain't going."
Hello and happy Thursday from a new and improved 30 year old Brit! Well okay fine, I'm still slightly trash but we getting there. Let me tell ya'll something, the past few weeks of my life have been amazing! Ya'll ever took a break from paying bills just to relax?
I'm hella poor right now but let me explain...
My 20's were a blast! I feel like those years allowed me to get to know myself. You know, take this adult life for a spin and see if I crash (I crashed a few times). Although I had a lot of fun, I did A LOT of stressing. About graduating from college, moving from city to city, apartment to apartment, job to job, how I was going to pay for this or that and where my life was going in general. I did so much of that, until I had forgotten to take time for myself.
See? This is why having a dope circle is important. I'm bout to pull up on ya'll with this word, ya'll ready?

Aight so boom, I knew I wanted to really step outside of my box this year. I had it all worked out. I planned a party and also wanted to plan a vacation with friends. It just so happens that the homie Carl and fiance Ashley were planning a big group trip to Cabo, Mexico! I'm like, dope. Let me round up some of my girls and make a birthday event of it. I was hype, thirsty and ready to go. What better way to spend your birthday than going out of the country for the first time with your girls?

They was like, "NAH." So then I was like, "NAH."
Until my people was like, "Why don't you just go by yourself? It's a group."
I'm like: "BY MYSELF?!?!?"
If you know me, you know that I am in the top two list of introverted extroverts... and I ain't two. So I called Carl and backed out because I had nightmares of me being painfully awkward. He insisted that this would be the best time and that I should still come out. He even found me a person to split my room with! That's love! Although I knew Carl and Ashley, my room was set up and everything was taken care of, I still thought about not going everyday until I sat on the plane and it took off. But I'm so glad I went! It turns out, an open bar and nice weather can make you pretty social.

Look ya'll the moral of the story is, you ain't gotta wait on nobody to do what you wanna do. I would have missed out on a really dope experience, meeting dope people and a four day turn up if I waited on someone to go with me. I mean come on, have you ever seen 200 black people on the beach living they best life like this?
