I'm 29 years old, when did I become so damn sensitive?

As a child I don't remember being emotional or having my feelings hurt other than when someone obviously hit me on the playground. I've noticed the last 5 years at least that I've become increasingly more sensitive, example: if someone doesn't answer my phone call I don't just take it as a personal rejection I feel this sad ache inside that isn't reasonable at all. Another example is if I say hello to someone and they say hi back but don't engage in conversation with me, I question whether I'm likable.

When did I suddenly start having so many emotions over simple things that didn't bother me before? I'm on a mini journey, kind of secretly from family and friends, to figure what's going on with me. Why do I suffer from panic attacks, anxiety, and random emotional episodes. I figured, that blogging about it would help me think things through. I hope this doesn't end up biting me in the ass somewhere in the distance future.

Is it normal for people to grow so insecure as they get older? It's been an entire year since moving to Florida, it's been a year since my first post on here. So hopefully in 2014, I will have more to blog about. I need an outlet, a place to send out my thoughts and somehow reconnect with myself and others. At this point in time, I feel lonely, unable to make friends, and distant even around the people who I love and care for. I just can't figure out where it came from or even where to start to get back from it. So good luck to me, I guess.

Gulfarium Day with my side kick

(Google Images) On one of our adventure days, me and my sidekick "gophie" visited a place called GULFARIUM  . It's a pretty cool marine life museum with dolphin shows, shark chats, stingray chats, and sea lion show. I wouldn't recommend it during the winter since it's mostly outdoors but it was still a ton of fun for us. They also give military discount, * SCORE * Nurse Sharks Bumper the Sea Turtle On this particular day since it was cold not to many people were there. So we got a lot of information from the people giving the information for the shows and even got invited to watch the trainers feed the sea turtles, Bumper & Bailey. We also saw the Nurse Sharks and Lemon Sharks during the 'shark chat'. Our trainer (Ms. Alice) definitely gave us a lot of information and reminded us about sea conservation, recycle and don't trash the ocean! DID YOU KNOW? Touching a Florida Sea Turtle is ILLEGAL ?? Yea, this california born girl didn...

New Base, New Place

(found off Google Maps) Recently my family and I have PCS'd to a new base in Florida. Eglin AFB. We've been here for about 2 weeks and I've been exploring the area slowly while unpacking all our boxes into our new digs. I wish I could say that it gets easier to move around but it really isn't, if anything it becomes more of a headache when the travel policies change constantly and by the time I get to the next base its like my family has accumulated so much stuff I can't even remember owning it to begin with! So far my house is now walkable, but I'm surrounded by boxes galore. It does give me a chance to go through a bunch of items that I've been meaning to get rid of. Prior to our move, we bought our first home in Texas, which was a nice big house for our family, it also meant we had bought a lot of items to fill the house and now that we're in another state, we've moved into a smaller house so I'm learning to become a lot more crafty a...

The list of things I wish I had when I first started living on my own

Hi Blog world! So as the holiday season is dying down and I'm still unpacking the last of the boxes and getting this house organized, I was inspired to blog about the list of items I wish I had known to buy the first time I had moved out of my parents home the first time at 18 years old. When I was 18, I was a young mom to an infant, newly married to the father (now my ex-husband) and was working and trying to figure my way into college. I had lived at my parents house up until then and being in a Filipino household my mom did everything her way, which meant I didn't learn squat on how to care for my own until I had thrown myself into adulthood. When I rented my first apartment, it was a crappy ghetto one bedroom in a descent part of town that wasn't furnished. At the time my parents were nice enough to let me bring some of my bedroom stuff from my old room into the new place to use since I had my oldest son with me. Of course all the household items I bought at that ti...
