So I'm sitting here in careers class listening to "My Girl" by the Temptations (cover by David Choi) and talking to Jennnnnnn. I love this song. It's such a classic. I want to dance to it at my wedding. :) No scratch that... I WILL dance to it at my wedding. Or my husband will play it for me. On a balcony. Over looking the ocean. In Hawaii. Is that too much to ask for? Oh well... 0:-)

Another awesome song that is old but I still love.. THINKING OF YOU! By Katy Perry. I am in love with this song. For realz. The line "You're like an indian summer in the middle of the winter." Gosh I love it so much.

So I really don't have much to say. I hope everyone is having a good week.
Blessings xoxo,
Bridget

I think Valentines Day is stupid. Why do people need a commercial holiday to share their love? Dumb. But today after work (which was awesome) I went out with two of my fave girls. They are two of the sweetest people I have ever met and I don't hang out with them as much as I should. So that was super fun! :)

Hope y'all had a blessed V-Day! Hahaha :) xo

Hello everyone! So much has been going on lately.. Currently I am sitting in an annoying waiting room because I sprained my finger... How attractive. But I am stoked my blog works on my blackberry yayyy! :)
2010 has been off to a crazy start. It's been awesome. New memories, new friends and new experiences. Not just for me but for my family. My mom is going back to school to get her master's degree. I never thought I'd see the day! She is such a strong person. Cancer survivor, mother of two teenage girls and now.. University student!! :)
For me, I've been trying to focus on my writing. I love to write. And one day I will publish a book. Watch out world! This is the year of NO fear!!! xo

Blessings!
-Bridget :)

Long time no talk. I've missed you! :) A lot has been going on lately and it's been stressing me out. So since this is MY blog, meaning my heart can be set free, I'm going to take this opportunity to vent.

I'm am getting fed up with people lately. I see girls every single day wasting their lives, and obsessing over meaningless objectives. I don't understand it. Why do you want to waste hours and hours infront of the mirror when you could be out in the real world, learning and living? I see girls who are literally covered head to toe in obvious fake tans, coated with foundation and bronzer. What's the point? To cover up who you are? Are you afraid people won't like the real you? Won't want to date the real you? Are you covering up your secrets, fears and insecurities? It is something I'll never understand. I'm not saying I'm perfect. That I don't wake up feeling insecure and alone. Because I do. I do all the time. But I would rather have people love me for who I am, then what I pretend to be. Don't get me wrong; If you wear makeup, I am not judging you, nor am I saying I don't wear makeup. Personally, I love makeup. Experimenting with new eye shadow colours, and trying different eyeliners. I look forward to putting on makeup. I think it's such a great tool. I'm talking about the girls who abuse the privledge of makeup. Changing their skintones to the point where they look like pumpkins. Hello, if you live in Canada, you are NOT supposed to be orange! Hate to break it to you. You look like a cheap barbie. Not a pretty ones young girls aspire to be.. the fake, baby prostitute barbies. Get a clue! Thanks.

Another thing that has been eating at me lately in internet hate. Especially in the disney community. What possible reason could you have for hating somebody YOU HAVE NEVER MET? And even if you have met them once or twice.. that does NOT mean you know them. Sorry sweetheart. You do not know Miley, Selena, Demi, Joe, Nick, Kevin, Ashley, Zac, Vanessa, etc. Again, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you are not their friend. You are not an insider. They don't care about your opinion. Hating them is only making you look stupid, and them more famous. I support all of them. Maybe not equally, I mean you are allowed a favorite band, actress, singer, etc. But I do support all of them. And I wish them the best of luck in all their future endevors. How would you like it if people created an online hate page for you? Would that hurt? Being calling you a slut, bitch, hoe, disgrace, gay? WOULD THAT HURT? Yes it would. So treat others the way you want to be treated and fuck off. Keep your mouths shut and let these kids live their freaking lives.

Now I'm so sorry I've been neglecting this blog, but whoever is reading this.. I love you! And I hope you have an amazing holiday season! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

With all my love,
Bridget

Well hello thereee.
So I realized even though I blog pretty often, and I tell you all my life story.. I have never really introduced myself. Which is why I'm making this blog. :)

Hi, my name is Bridget but my friends call me Bridge. Which I find kinda annoying because it makes me think of an actual bridge. And bridges are usually pretty weird looking and cars drive over them. Personally I'd prefer if you called me Bee. Or Burge because thats my other nickname. Because my last name is Burgess. Get it? Cool.

I am a pretty complex person, but I try to keep my heart in the right place. I get confused easily, and it takes somebody with great courage to figure me out and keep me calm. Which is why I am so blessed to have amazing friends. My best friends on earth are Sierra, Carolyn, Shad, Desean, Steph, Ceilidh and my big sister Katie. Sierra is truly an angel. She is the sweetest, most sincere person I have ever met. She always is thinking about other people, and she can always have a good time! Carolyn is the first person I go to when I have a problem. She doesn't go to my school so I know I can always trust her for an unbiased opinion. Like if I am having an issue with a friend, or a lame girl is gunning for the boy I like, Carolyn always gives me straight up advice. She doesn't sugar coat anything, which I love and admire. And I am certain that one day she is going to change the world. Shad is the biggest dork ever. Haha, not actually, but he is so silly! He tends to keep things in perspective for me, and I love him to death. Desean is pretty much the greatest. He keeps a smile on my face and I feel like I can tell him anything. And its never weird. I can tell him any aspect of my life and he doesnt judge me. And he knows I wont judge him either. Steph is a blessing. She really is. I love her so much, not only because she is so easy to talk to, but because we will have the weirdest conversations, but we both will take them seriously. That probably makes no sense, but its the truth. Ceilidh is my twin. We look so much alike! Except she is so much prettier. I love her so much. We've been friends for years and we have a lot in common. Ceils is the party girl, but she also is SO funny. PS her name is pronounced Kaylee. It's a Canada thing. Haha! And then theres my sister Katie. We fight.. a lot. But its always about something stupid. At the end of the day we love eachother and we will always be there for eachother. She always has my back. :)

I am an avid basketball player. I love the game. I love the rush you get while playing. Like you're invincible. Sorta like walking on air. Or should I say running on air??? Whatevs.

Blue is my fave colour. I am Canadian. I love Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus & Demi Lovato. Mess with them, and you're gone. Haha! Not actually, but still I will be sad. I think Nick and Miley are sorta perfect for eachother. Nick meaning Nick Jonas.. duh. I love chocolate milk and cookies! My lucky numbers are 13, 14, 32 and 21. I love the Ottawa 67s! :)

I love to smile!

Thats all for now kids.
xoxo Bee

"Heaven's not a place that you go when you die, it's that moment in life when you actually feel alive."

Today has not been a good day. Today tears have been cried, feelings have been hurt and friendships have changed. It's days like today when I wonder about GOD. Days like today make you question your faith and make you rethink everything you believe in... but it's also days like today that show you how strong you really are. I am comfortable in my faith. I believe there is a GOD and I believe he is the creator of all things. Why do I believe in GOD? Why don't I listen to science, or to haters? Because I know there has to be something more out there. There has to be a higher power. There has to be something beautiful and wonderful waiting for us. That's why I believe in GOD.. because this world can't be all there is.

But until the day that I die and finally see heaven and meet my maker, I try to see heaven on Earth. Heaven is all around us. In the blue sky of a warm beach, in the smile of a child, in the belonging of a family... thats heaven. Heaven is running down a hill with your best friend, not having a care in the world. That is my heaven.

Love you always,
B

"Standing out in the rain, knowing that it's really over... please don't leave me alone."

I'm sitting here by myself, watching the Yankees game, reading some tweets and thinking about YOU. I don't know why I always find myself listening to this song when I think about us, and everything we've been through, but I do. And every single time it makes my eyes well with tears. Why do I do this to myself? Why do I put myself through the pain of remembering you? Although I've done my best to run from the truth, the answer has always been right infront of me. Because I love you. I've always loved you. And I've come to the reality that I always will love you. This ache in my chest... it isn't going to go away. It's been three years. Three intense, incredible, rollar-coaster years. Three "I love you. I hate you. I need you. I want you. I can't live without you." years. I wish I could forget you. I wish I could forget about what we had. Sometimes I wish we never would have met, and I would have saved myself all this pain. But if we would have never met, we would never have fallen in love. You would never have given me the best years of my life. The romance. The intensity. The passion. We had everything. We had the formula to be something beautiful... something that could last a lifetime. Where did we go wrong? Where did we screw up? When did we reach our breaking point? Truthfully I don't think we ever did.. "We were young and times were easy." All we did was grow up.

I know we might not ever be together again. I may never hold you in my arms and feel your skin against mine. But I will never forget you. I will never forget what we had. I will never regret anything that happened. I love you. I will always love you. And I thank you for making me who I am today. For teaching me the meaning of love, and showing me a whole new world. I love you.

"Flooded with all this pain, knowing that I'll never hold ya... like I did before the storm."

I guess that's why I love this song. Why it makes me cry. Why it connects with me and my heart. Because it reminds me of us and our story. Although there are distinct differences, the message is the same...

It's getting late and I'm going to bed. Even though I know I will see your face in my dreams tonight, I think it's going to hurt just a little bit less... I'm not scared anymore. I've come to terms with my reality, and even though I love you... I'm letting go.

Goodnight.
With all my love,
B
