I don’t have a very interesting answer to this one.  “Just Call Me R” was a spur of the moment decision when I ended my old diary and started this one.  I wanted something that wasn’t too specific, because when I started this diary it was a new start for me.  I spent a good portion of my life prior to this diary doing things that were simply put, no good.  I was partying too much, doing drugs, drinking too much, eating too much, dating the wrong men… and I was on the path to emotional and mental destruction.  I’m not sure what happened to make that all change.  I suppose it was just the realization that I did not want my life to be what it was.  I didn’t want to be the girl that I was.

So, I decided to change my life.  And I did.  I reflect once in a while on the girl I was a year ago, two years ago, three years ago and the disparity between that girl I was then and the woman I am today is a vast one.  I am in school, I am on a mission at work to really make this the start to the “career” phase of my life, I am with a good man who I think will be the man I marry and start a family with, I’m not getting wasted all the time, I’m not harming myself, and I am standing my ground on what I want and deserve in life. 

I am still working on the person I am and want to be.  I still have moments of weakness.  But I am finally proud of who I am.  I am proud to tell people what I am doing with my life and what I am working toward.

It’s a nice feeling.

Anyway, I sort of went off on a tangent with this entry, but the simple answer to the question is that my name starts with an R.  So… just call me R. 🙂
