  For the past year, I've been quite rebellious.  I never hit a rebel stage while I was a teenager, or when I hit 18, or when I hit 21...no.  I was 23 when it hit me.  This year I have done the following rebellious acts....

  Got a tattoo

  Got my nose pierced

  Changed my hair color several times

  Started smoking

  Tried a drug I won't mention

  Explored Wiccan religion

  partied all night

  Spent absurd amounts of money on clothes

  Stalked celebrities

  Ate whatever I wanted to eat (and paid the price)

  Got drunk in the mornings

  Sought revenge on people when I know that's not my right

   

  So what's the deal with me?  When is this rebellious stage going to end?  I'm married, for crying out loud.  My husband has been exceedingly patient and understanding about this "mid-twenties crisis" I'm going through.  But what if it lasts for several more months, or even several years?  If anyone is reading this who understands, give me some advice.  Don't get me wrong:  I've had fun walking on the wild side.  In fact, I think it suits me more than my old good-girl image.  The thing is, I'm already married...so I don't think it's wise to continue getting worse and worse like I have been.

   

  On the up side, many great things have happened this year:

   

  I got accepted to grad school.

  I edited my aunt's book and got credit for it.

  I started research on writing my own novel, which I'm almost ready to put on paper.

  I went to fun events and partied!!!  Wooohooooo

  I got closer to my family, and to myself.

  My marriage improved because we started getting used to each other.

  I made new friends and strengthened my old friendships.

  I started a job I truly love and have been there almost a year now.

  I realized my own strength and importance...I became fearless.

   

  For 2009, I hope to materialize many of the goals I've been dreaming about.  I hope to have more fun...more laughs...more memories made.

  The Lord is good...even to little rebel girls like me!
