Finally graduated. Honestly? Nothing too special, it's not like all of a sudden I've changed into something else or people treat me differently.  I have the same problems with talking to people as I always have and I still have the same insecurities.  I still put up the same fights when it comes to admitting love and I still have the same problems just talking about feelings.  My parents still treat me like I'm three and can't take care of myself.  They still except me to take criticisms without flinching yet rebuke me for not speaking my mind.  Sorry guys, a little off my normal mood tonight, just like the past three nights. 

I realized something tonight though, I truly do love Tony, in a way I thought wasn't possible at this age.  I mean, how are you supposed to know if this is the person you want to spend the rest of your life with? How do you have the maturity to admit it and not make it sound childish or, excuse me, like high school drama?  But I realized tonight that I can't imagine a future without him with me or seeing anyone else.  Tonight he's further away than ever, in Florida with his family and today I realized how much just knowing I can call him and talk to him when I have a bad moment makes my day brighter. I miss my baby so much right now and I know it's kind of silly to miss him this much when I saw him less than 24 hours ago but I know I won't see him for another, at least, week and a half.  We don't have a date set where we'll see each other again and that makes me nervous and sad.  I can't wait to see my baby again.

A week from now, I"ll be officially graduated!! 

We got a new kitten!! Right now he's 7 weeks old and we named him Tippy.  Right now he's sleeping in my lap and he's SOOOOO adorable!

I just figured out, Tony and I've made it more than 9 months now!!  Last Thursday to be exact... Kind of scary when I think about it but we're still going strong.

Question: What do you do when someone close to you is hurting so bad?  What can you say to them?  How do you fix it?
