Surprises

I have officially decided that the best things in life happen completely by surprise. I know that some people don't like surprises, and I just don't get it! Maybe its a fear of being badly surprised, like thrown off by something that isn't good, or you didn't want. But think about it. Most things that have surprised me in my life have turned out to be great! Surprisingly enough, I went to a college that I swore I would never apply to and met some of the best friends in the world. My 18th birthday party was a total surprise, and even though everyone scared me half to death, all my favorite people were there with me to celebrate. There's the puppy you get as a kid for Christmas that's a surprise (oh wait, that would be what I'm hoping for this year). And what about surprise proposals? 99% of the time, I bet those work out perfectly (not that I would know for sure, haha). And what about those surprise people you meet? A great guy for example, who turns out to be nothing like all the jerks you've dated before, or a new best friend that you meet at work or through another friend or wherever. I'll say one thing, this warm weather that is happening today was definitely a surprise and speaking as a warm weather kind of girl, I'm going to enjoy it. My free advice to everyone, if something surprises you, take a moment to enjoy the fact that you didn't even see it coming. To me, that's the best part.
