I was not prepared for THAT!
I’m really tired, but I don’t want to stop using this blog so soon after I started, so I’m going to post anyway, only a couple of thoughts.
- the size of the seats on my flight to Lisbon was not a problem, I was so happy! The seat belt was even two inches longer than I needed it to be. It was far from comfortable, but not embarrassing at all.
- yes, Holly was right, I did a lot of walking on my trip. Didn’t do my knees a favor though, I think… so many hills in this city. And I was sad that I could not keep up with my brother, though, sometimes it wasn’t funny.
But the city is BEAUTIFUL! I’d move there in a moment (but getting a job offer there in my profession is very unlikely).
- the lastĀ days were emotionally exhausting and liberating at once. I FINALLY told a friend of mine that I have fallen in love with him, after 1.5 years. This was a HUGE step for me. The result is not what I expected at all… I never had hopes that he’d feel the same way, and I was right. I thought this was going to be the end of our friendship, and I was prepared for it (though the thought made me very sad). But… (life is just great sometimes) as it turned out he’s not interested in women. So instead of losingĀ him, I am able to have a much more meaningful relationship to him, now, that we know so much more about each other.
I’m so so thankful, because he’s just a very great person. And I think he needs me, too (he’s not “out” yet) … we are lucky to have each other.
And in the course of events, I lost five pounds, yay! Too much stress, I guess…
sounds like you had alot fun on your trip, weight loss to top it off that is so awesome!! keep it up!
