I've noticed lately that I am incredibly lucky. I have an amazing family, even if they annoy the crap out of me. I have a few friends that I feel like I am getting closer to, although I do not know just how willing I am to trust them, I'm beginning to get there. And lastly, I have such a wonderful boyfriend.

I have wonderful parents that are supportive and loving. They are the reason that I am who I am today. They let me be who I want, they let me make decisions and they help me be a better person, even though my mom and I can really get on each others nerves, I know that she will always be there for me to support me.

I have the best big brother that anyone can ever ask for. We always laugh when we are together and I feel like he understands me, for the most part, because I know that it is pretty hard to truly understand people sometimes. Although, I think that he is me in the opposite gender, pretty much. And he is always there for me, and he will tell it to me straight. He's not much of a sugar coater, which is sometimes hard for me to understand at first, but I always get there. Even if he is terrible at keeping secrets, I know that he will always be there for me to back me up or help me in a difficult sitaution.

My grandparents are wonderful. I see my grandmothers both at least once a week. They are so very different. One of my grandmas, I see a lot of myself in. She's shy and quiet, kind of awkward, like how I am. But she is honestly the sweetest thing, and she would do anything for my family and I. I would like to be like her when I get older. My other grandmother is assertive. She will tell it to you how it is. She's the one that is teaching me how to live, and she really helps me when I need advice. I really do love them both.

I also have aunts and uncles that are pretty amazing. And there are also other family members that I adore greatly. I really do have a wonderful family, and I do not know where I would be without them there to support me and keep me going.

I have been getting in touch with old friends from high school. I do know that it is hard to trust them, but I know that when I'm with them it's like the old days. Like when I didn't have any grown up worries and we talked about how crappy school was and we talked about things that didn't matter. I forgot how easy it is to talk to some people, how easy it is to be open with them

And lastly, I have an amazing boyfriend. I often wonder how I got so lucky, because he is such a special person. I wonder why he chose me, beause I know that I'm not all that special and he's so wonderful. He's there when I need him. When I have a bad day, or when I need to talk about something that's bothering me. I've also been emotional and crazy, yet he seems to put up with it. I know that I can be annoying and irrational, and definitely clingy, but at the end of the day, I can't help but think how lucky I am that he did chose me and that he loves me. Of all the people in the world, he chose me. He has my heart, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
