Welcome 2014

Happy New Year!
  
     Wow already in 2014! I felt like I was celebrating 2013 just yesterday and now here we are on the first day of 2014, time really does fly. I'm not really big on New Year's resolutions and all, but for 2014 there is something I would like to do...well more like change about myself, and that is to just focus more on myself and my happiness. For the past year or two, I feel like I have focused a lot on other people..hoping they are happy, pleasing them, trying to impress them and caring what they might think or say about me. I was too focused on other people and I would just end up being upset and disappointed because I either had too high expectations of people, or they turned out to be not who I thought they were, etc. This all just caused negativity and worry in my life that was definitely not needed! In December I really started thinking about all this and realized that the first and foremost person I have to care for and make sure is happy is me. Why should I care what others think of me or what they are doing? Why should I be the one trying hard and putting effort when others aren't?  I'm only 18 years old!  My life is only beginning. There is so much ahead of me, so much to do and look for. Why should I have other people distract me from working towards my future, achieving my goals and living my life the way I want to? I don't need any negativity or stress in  my life. It's all about those positive vibes :-) So for 2014, my goal is to just focus on myself, my happiness, my family, closest friends and all that is ahead of me.

     I actually spent my New Years Eve working, but it's all good because I also had fun. Well at first I did, but something happened at the end that left me furious and ruined the beginning of the new year for me, but I'll get to that.  I was a waiter along with Karolina, my sister and a few others for a party of about 150 or so people in our polish school. I actually like working at those parties because we don't even have that much work to do with the pay that we get, me and Karolina spend some of our free time dancing and we get free food and who doesn't like that? Haha :-)


With Karolina & my younger sister Aleksandra. Yea we rocked them red lips lol :P

     We actually had to wear those stupid little red hats, but we took them off after like an hour. They were actually cute, but it's something that belongs more to a costume ensemble, and not waiter attire. We also wore red sparkly scarves which I really liked, but there were only 4 scarves & 5 girl waiters so of course I was the one who didn't get the scarf and ended up waiter a tie -_- but it's okay I rocked that tie :P

     Once the clock hit 12 it was 2014! We all got champagne to welcome the new year (just a small champagne glass for us no worries haha) and afterwards we went outside with a few others to have a little fun with sparklers

 

      Afterwards we just enjoyed ourselves, there was not much to do after 12am really. Me and Karolina danced a lot haha. It was all good and fun until the end, when I realized someone went into my bag not once, but twice and took something that belonged to me. What angered me the most was not what was stolen, but the fact that someone had the nerve to go into my bag, my private and personal item TWICE! And we know who it was, but they are denying it. Me and Karolina played detective and all our evidence leads us to them. So that is how my night ended. I definitely did not expect to start my new year this way, but it is what it is I guess.

I didn't post anything for over a month  because I was swamped with school, papers and work :( But from now on I will make sure to post whenever I can :)

Until next time,
Sylwia :-)

Let me tell you about my best friend...♥

What can I say about this girl on the right? Oh man where do I begin...:)

She is someone I call my best friend, my long lost sister, my other half. Her name is Karolina and I am beyond grateful, lucky and thankful to be able to have her in my life.
It's crazy to think that we met December 2012 and 10 months later, we call each other the best of friends, as if we knew each other for years

 

Like I said earlier, me and Karolina met back in December 2012, even though we have attended the same polish school for years together haha :) So anyway, we met when we were both working as waitresses for a New Years Eve party for our polish school. First off, we had a flippin' awesome New Years Eve! :D Even though we worked, we were still able to have some time to dance and enjoy the party as well, along with others that worked with us :)

Representing our country...Polska! :)





We hung out for the first time in January and had sushi (which we are both obsessed with! haha) and as we saw each other and talked more often, our friendship grew and before we knew it, we called each best friends. I clearly remember our first sleepover at my house back in March and I believe it was around that time that we became best friends. I also remember the first sleepover we had at Karolina's house in May and that was definitely a one to remember haha! Something I really enjoy is having these sleepovers, especially when it's just us two. Of course, we eat a lot haha (we both love food a bit too much... hehe), and we often end up doing some crazy things, or simply watch a movie, or our favorite YouTubers. We also often stay up and play questions (where we ask each other all sorts of embarrassing, personal, weird questions), truth or dare or would you rather.  I remember back in the summer, we had a sleepover at my house and we both opened up so much to each other through playing questions that we started tearing up (and we also started freaking out a bit once we started talking about ghosts and spirits, but let's not get into that lol).




Karolina is someone I really cherish in my life, and I truly hope she stays in my life for a long, long time, until we are grandmas sitting in our rocking chairs, reminiscing all our memories :) Karolina is such a beautiful person inside and out. She is someone who I can be 100% myself around ( and I am one weird, awkward person haha!) and I know I can trust her with anything and she pretty much knows knows me inside and out. We easily open up to each other. I love her sense of humor and that she understands me and who I really am. She is a fun, bubbly, loving, caring and simply amazing person and friend who I am lucky and grateful to have in my life. We can be doing fun, exciting things together, or even nothing in particular, just sitting around and talking, but I'll still have a great time just because I was with Karolina :) We are often the biggest idiots and weirdos when we're together, and I love every single moment of it. That last picture above on the right is what we call "our face" haha! We often do it whenever we greet each other or just randomly lol :)

 

I have so much memories of us from these last 10 months and I am only looking forward to more. We have so much planned for the future and I am really excited for what is ahead of us and all those memories that we will make

We went on a pilgrimage in August and let's just say we are both happy that we made it through those 4 days! Haha! Lots of blisters, muscle and leg pain, but at least we had each other :)    

On our way to Splish Splash! We had an awesome time :D   

I also love Karolina's family. I consider them my second family and my second home, just as my house is Karolina's second home :) Recently, Karolina came over and as she opened the door and came in, she said "I'm home!" haha :) Even though I started college this year, and Karolina is a junior in high school, we still try to see each other often and talk whenever we can. I pick her up from school on Fridays whenever I can and then we go to polish school together and Saturdays we volunteer at our polish school in the elementary classes. 

Yes, I am rocking a Sponge-Bob shirt haha! :)   

Karolina recently gave me a super duper early birthday gift and I loved it. It was 2 picture frames made up of pictures of us and I actually started tearing up :') It was simply amazing, thoughtful, and sweet and they both hang on my wall and I see it everyday and just smile :)
Thank you Karolina, for being my best friend, for being here for me, for always listening to me and putting up with me through the good, the bad. Having you in my life brings me happiness and I could never ever ask for a better, more amazing best friend.
Love you!
