all emotional

is it all girls like this or just the emotional ones like me?
where i begin to tell my boyfriend about a problem i have or something im upset about, i well up before i even begin and all the rational, make sense things fly out of my head as i try to be rational with tears streaming down my face and a wobble in my voice. i end up with him frustrated at my crying (again!) and me even more frustrated because whatever i wanted to say was lost and not taken seriously.
i find myself writing letters or emails to get my point across, which is not always good as things can look very different on paper than said in real life. case in point- was just about to send my bf an email to explain i feel hurt when he doesnt take things i think are important, seriously at all. ie. going on holidays. surely it is reasonable to want to go away from time to time? he told me he doesnt want to, and to 'get over it'. im now thinking email is not the answer, likely it will be misinterpreted as having a go. can i say it tonight without crying...making a big deal...
agh, is there ever such a thing as the perfect argument (reason, way of explaining something so it makes sense) if there is, i would sure like to know what it is.
however, bfs revelation holidays are not his thing, at least, while disappointing and saddening me immensly that he refuses to do this with me, led me to new revelations myself. i have to make my own fun! i cant rely on him for it. as much as it pisses me off, i have to make my own holidays, good times. is it enough though? i think one of the most important parts of relationships is experiencing things together. if he wont do that with me... theres a problem.
this is making me feel worse, not better.

first post

my first post. well, really my second, by i had another blog and i could remember the user name...or password (smart). im not really expecting anyone to read this, but i want somewhere to put my thoughts as they come to me. where better than the internet, haha. but really, i dont want them in some dusty word document hidden away. just thoughts....

and first, something i think about a lot, put into a list.

i am always freaking about getting the most of life, and wanting to make something of it so i dont look back and see it as a waste. i wonder whether i make te righ decisions that will lead to the best things, and then i have seen this around lately that describes me perfectly- a bucket list. a list of things to do before i die. perfect! then once i fulfil them, i can rest easy and relax, or otherwise strive on to the next thing to cross off my bucket list. there are things big and small, but all of them are important. some i want to do more than once. here it is, ill probably add to it.

1. go walking through a rainforest,they always look so beautiful

2. related to above, go swimming in a waterfall pond. strangely, whenever i am really hungover, i think of diving into a icy cold, calm but alive waterfall pool. it always helps me and i would love to do it for real

3. go on a trek, see the ruins of lost civilisations in peru. perhaps this is just because i saw indiana jones the other day, but the word peru has always drawn me

4. go to ireland, or scotland. in fact there are many places i want to go. south america, america (niagra falls!!!), las vegas, new york, then south africa, the wide open spaces and heat just...yes..., vietnam, new zealand to go sky diving and bungee jumping and freaky things..., many more places but all in time
