A day away from the HD
Well yesterday was May 15th 2010. The day that I had dedicated to go to Bolsa Chica State Park in Huntington Beach to walk a 5k (which was a 10k last year) for Cystic Fibrosis. Scottie Somers is who our team walks for and the best part is, he always walks with us : ) It was so good to see scottie and catch up and for him to see emma again considering he hasnt seen her since she was a month old.
Anyways...we did the walk and decided against the beach because it was too windy and emma was super duper tired to we made the journey back to Alex's house and hung out by the pool in his apartment complex and let emma play before we put her back in the dreaded carseat that she hates to be in for so long sometimes. After we enjoyed the pool we made the journey back to the HD and hung out for a little bit before jenn went home and soon after alex went home as well.
That was my saturday in a nutshell and heres my sunday.
Im sick. Im tired. Im bored. Im upset. Im scared. And with all this aside I couldnt be happier with my life. Im ready to take on what is about to happen in my life and im excited to see what comes my way, you know the things I dont have "planned". In case you didnt know, I have a plan for everything. I feel like I can call the shots on my life and sometimes I am successful, sometimes well not so much.
I also have countdowns for everything...no joke. I have 18 days until I see the best boyfriend ever, WHOA! 21 days until I turn 21 : ) and 26 days left as a California resident. I cant wait in fact I am so excited, I just cant hide it! haha I am a dork, I know. I cant wait to see what North Carolina has in store for me :)
peace. love. east coast.

p.s. I know what I am going to do for my next tattoo....bet you wish I would tell you!

A song I like : )
Yesterday is a wrinkle on your forehead
Yesterday is a promise that you've broken
Don�t close your eyes, don't close your eyes
This is your life and today is all you've got now
Yeah, and today is all you'll ever have
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, is it everything you dreamed that it would be
When the world was younger and you had everything to lose
Yesterday is a kid in the corner
Yesterday is dead and over
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, is it everything you dreamed that it would be
When the world was younger and you had everything to lose
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
This is your life are you who you want to be
This is your life are you who you want to be
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, is it everything you dreamed it would be
When the world was younger and you had everything to lose
And you had everything to lose
Yesterday is a promise that you've broken
Don�t close your eyes, don't close your eyes
This is your life and today is all you've got now
Yeah, and today is all you'll ever have
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, is it everything you dreamed that it would be
When the world was younger and you had everything to lose
Yesterday is a kid in the corner
Yesterday is dead and over
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, is it everything you dreamed that it would be
When the world was younger and you had everything to lose
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
Don't close your eyes
This is your life are you who you want to be
This is your life are you who you want to be
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, are you who you want to be
This is your life, is it everything you dreamed it would be
When the world was younger and you had everything to lose
And you had everything to lose

the days are getting harder : (
So I only have 24 days left as Charlie and Hunters nanny which is realistically less because they will be with their mom some of those days and I have 32 days left as California resident. Im sure its getting old hearing about me moving hearing about my life changing and blah blah blah but I dont care, i dont really write this blog for you, I write it for me, I write it to get stuff off my mind.
I am really excited about my new job and the new opportunities and experiences I will have and as much as I love change, i have to admit im a little on the scared side. What if I get homesick all over again because 17745 honeycomb lane has been my home for 3 years. What if the job is totally not what I am looking for and I end up hating it? I really dont think that is going to happen, I met with Lisa and her family when I was in north carolina and fell in love with them all but at the same time this life has been normal for three years and its weird to think that my daily routine is going to be completely different. Heck im going to be on the opposite side of the country and im going to have to time everything just right if I want to talk to my california friends.
Which brings me to a good point. A lot of people ask me weekly, sometimes daily, "why are you moving to NC". And this is what I want you to know...Because. Thats really the only answer I can give you, because. Because I want to, and because I can oh and most importantly because theres no one here that can stop me.
Im going to miss my friends very much and i mean very very very much. It just might be harder to leave these friends than it was to leave my friends in vw 3 years ago and only because when I left vw I knew that I would be home to visit, I would always have a reason to go back with that reason being family. Obviously everyone i know in california means a lot to me but at the time trips back here will have to be vacations and what not. All my holidays will be spent with my family in ohio : ) (you know how good it feels to know that I will be able to spend any holiday I want with my family as long as my job allows it : ) )
Anyways...im not sure what else to write other than the next 24 days need to hurry up and get here so maybe I wont be so lonely anymore and the next 32 days need to hurry up so I can peace out of here and start the next chapter of my life. I cant wait to see what happens for me : )
peace. love. change.

A week of frustration...
well well well its friday, which means an end to my week of frustration...hopefully.
I really dont know what has gotten into me lately but i will be the first to admit this week was filled with many mental breakdowns to the point where i just had to let out a good cry, wipe my tears, and move on.
heres the deal...
1. My job.
My job that i once loved with everything in me has turned into a chore. I dont enjoy it (not saying I dont like being a nanny or this family) buuuuuuuut i dont enjoy being a nanny for this family anymore and it hurts. This family has been mine for 3 years and I have been so thankful for everything they have done for me and any opportunity I have been given and everything they have taught me will be packed up amongst my belongings and making the move to nc with me as well. This job just isnt for me anymore and the fact that im here another month stresses me out because things wont be getting better until I turn off of honeycomb lane onto hidden valley one last time. Okay just typing that makes me sad!! anyways..
2. School
School is one thing that actually frustrated me at first but now things are good. Im doing really well and I have almost everything done for the semseter which is a good thing. I only have one more english paper to write and a cheat sheet for math as well as the practice final and i am DONE with my first year of college. whoa. thats weird to say or type in this matter....buuuuut i know that I have a lot more schooling ahead of me. The thing that is frustrating about school is that i do not know what i want to go for anymore so im kind of at a stand still but ill get through it!!
3. My mouth
This just might be the most frustrating thing going on in my life right now. Working for the conner family I was lucky to have medical and dental insurance tossed in with the deal. Well I got braces. And now im stuck. Im leaving the job, as everyone knows, which means Im leaving the insurance which means im either insurance shopping or paying for the rest of my grill out of pocket. Sounds easy, right? Yeah except every ortho ive talked to in charlotte wants 4 or 5 grand for my treatment even though i already have the braces on AND every insurance company i call doesnt offer insurance for orthodontics to individuals which is me. So im working on that and hopefully I start working harder, ive really got to figure it out.
Anyways...thats whats going on in my life, if you were wondering, well now you know.
Oh and Sunday is my 3rd mothers day. So weird.
peace. love. and frustration.

matt needs to wake up..
im only blogging because matt is sleeping and im bored and I like to take breaks in between paragraphs that i am writing on my english paper.
This english paper is about gambling and the cause and effects and what not. welllll its not a research paper so i didnt have to look up facts or statistics which is good buut its hard because i really dont know what gambling is all about. I mean yeah i get it, i get what it does to people and what not but i dont get everything so pretty much im pulling everything that im typing out of my butt. Soooo lets hope that I get a good grade : )
While im on the topic of school, im getting good grades. i owe a lot of thanks to a few people for helping me out when i get frustrated and dont want to do it anymore. Math, for one, is frustrating to me. I hate it. With every passion in my body actually. But, im almost done and I cant wait to be done!
ummm oh and im pretty sure im dropping out. haha okay not really but I hate school, I dont see how im going to survive 4 more years, we will see I guess.
I need to get back to this english paper while I still have the motivation to do so.
peace. love. gambling
