Bleh... I'm tired and so is tucker... I think this whole 4 miles/ more of running is going to kill us both....

I know I haven't been blogging in awhile. I have been enjoying HHI over the weekend. I thought that it would be a bad thing to go on vacation by yourself but in reality, I LOVE IT! I wish that the majority of my vacations could be alone because I don't have to worry about pleasing people with the activities that I want to do. Like yesterday for example, I went shopping,  took a blanket on the beach and read,  got ready, went to an early dinner, where I went to Skull Creek Boathouse and got Chardonary, house salad, Shrimp and Grits, and Snicker Crust pie for $20 because its restaurant week here in HHI. It's been wonderful. I truly don't want to drive home today. Among other things, I have decided that I need to marry someone that loves all things Harry Potter. thanks to Pinterest I have found all kinds of ideas that I want. And  a year ago I got Tucker, it was Super Bowl Sunday and the Steelers were playing the Packers. And He was just a little fuzz ball so damn c

Hope you all had a great Thursday!! I'm Watching America idol and I'm appalled by the crappy singers they pass and the good ones they let go... Yay for Friday tomorrow. No new pictures today.

Nothing too exciting happened today besides the usual routine of work and choir. I did get new tires for the car yay! Here's a picture for today because I'm exhausted you'll get more tomorrow

Good Tuesday everyone. I hope everyone is having a good day so far.  I had some realizations last night when speaking to a friend last night. I realized that you can't make everyone happy and that you can't be friends with everyone. The reasons being people are going to have criticism no matter how hard you try to please them. Another thing YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR ACTIONS/CHOICES/LIFE DECISIONS don't you DARE try to BLAME anyone else. You make choices everyday from if your going to go to work today down to major life decisions like where your going to live. It is no one's fault but yours if you make bad choices.  Another thing  my mom always told me that " In order to have friends, you have to be a friend". I believe that this is ever soo TRUE. Think about it are you going to keep a friendship where your the one person putting an effort into it. I don't think so. And friends are good for venting but please don't vent about the same problems ov

So I haven't been on here in a few days. But in the turn of recent events. I am now going to share my New Years Resolutions with yall. 1. Work out atleast 5 times a week. Whether it be swimming, going to a class at the gym, or just walking the dog up hill. 2. Eat healthier, aka control my portion sizes ( I struggle with this) and eat more fruits and vegetables. 3. Talk to my friends that live far away more & try to hang out with the ones I have here more. 4. Try to watch less TV in my downtime from work and replace it with reading like I use to do. 5. Be happier. I don't really know why I don't feel as happy as I should but I'm going to laugh more. 6. Try not to complain. Which is a hard one for most of us I feel like. 7. Blog at least every day . No matter if its a really short post or a long one. 8. Play with Tucker more. I have been bad about this, because its so easy for me to get running late for work and miss walking him in the mornings or making him

Today is Thursday which like in college is my favorite day of the week because I have set my work schedule up to where I don't work on Fridays. Another reason that I love Thursdays is Grey's Anatomy , Private Practice, & The Big Bang Theory all come on TV.  And its Zumba night which is always a good time. My favorite character from Grey's. She is the one I can most relate to. Love Addison! She was originally on the Grey's Anatomy cast. Plus I think Kate Walsh is gorgeous! Big Bang Theory !! Love this show! If you love dry humor and awkward situations! I highly recommend it. That's all I have for now! Hope yall have a great Thursday!!

Hey this post is for anyone that can be helpful. I want to give my blog some sparkle/glamour/spunk .. Like some fun fonts or themes. If you know how to do this please comment!! Thanks!!

So I just noticed that it has been quite awhile since I have posted a new blog... well here are the updates that are currently going on in my life right now: I'm in the middle of graduate school applications =( AHHH SCARY!! This will determine if I'm suppose to be an SLP for life or if I need to rethink my life and figure out a new career... TALK ABOUT PRESSURE I am no longer able to tell if I'm on a date or not with a guy.. Here's why : my normal definition of a date is where the guy asks you to hang out and you do. Also if he pays for the meal if you go to the meal and if you ride together. But I have currently learned that hanging out and going on a date are two different things. if anyone wants to clear this up for me that would be greatly appreciated. I recently discovered that people will always always disappoint you in ways that you did not think were possible.  And I have learned that I need to be living my life to the fullest because a little boy that goes t

I'm really tired of opening up my social networking sites and seeing everyone and their sister either getting in some type of relationship.   Its not that I dislike couples or people in relationships. I just don't really care how much you love a person or how much you can't wait for them to get home. I just don't want to read about it.  Another thing please do not bash your boyfriend/girlfriend via facebook. I do not feel sorry for you at all. It's annoying and plus it makes you looks stupid. Thats just my thoughts. peace out.

This are a list of quotes that I try to live by/try to remember when going thru everything in my life. I love grey's anatomy and a majority of these are from the show. Meredith Grey: Intimacy is a four syllable word for, "Here's my heart and soul, please grind them into hamburger, and enjoy." It's both desired, and feared. Difficult to live with, and impossible to live without. Intimacy also comes attached to the three R's... relatives, romance, and roommates. There are some things you can't escape. And other things you just don't want to know. ** so true... i find that we often forget about people and that we sometimes don't remember how to deal with them. I feel like one of those people who is so miserable that they can't be around normal people, like I'll infect the happy people- Meredith Grey At the end of the day, there are some things you just can't help but talk about. Some things we just don't want to hear, and some

So I have a list of the top 30 books in my opinion for a short reason. 1. all of the Harry Potter series-  great books about good vs. evil the films don't do the books justice. love the films but not the same as reading the books. 2. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo- great great great. 3.The Girl Who Played with Fire- excellent 4. The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest- good. 5. Hunger Games 6. Catching Fire 7. The Mockingjay 8. The Notebook 9.Something Borrowed 10. Something Blue 11. House of Night series 12. Immoral Instrument series 13. Daughters of the Moon series 14.Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants series 15.

I personally am not in a relationship right now because I chose not to be. I don't want to be tied down to someone else when I have no idea where my life is going to take me. I refuse to apologize for that. Also I don't think that its ok for other people in society specifically in Southern Society to judge me because I'm 22 and want a career instead of a husband right now.  Also stop telling me that I will eventually want children one day. No I will not and if I do I will probably 40 and have to adopt them! Quit judging me! I also believe that if I am not attracted to you and have not shown you interest please refrain from being attracted to me or dropping hints that you want a relationship with me. I DON'T WANT A BOYFRIEND right now. I'll go on dates and have fun but I'm in no hurry to settle down. This is my venting for today on this subject. if you don't like it DEAL! Peace out.
