Gold Star

So if you've learned anything from reading my blog you can 1. see that I haven't made entries lately and 2. see that I am an impulsive, passionate, energetic, person...haha I can really get carried away with my own thoughts sometimes...but at the end of the day I have a good head on my shoulders and I don't do anything too rash. Needless to say I'm not moving anywhere...until after I graduate that is...and even that's kind-of a lie. I did just move a whole 1 and 1/2 blocks down the street into a house that I'm in love with!!

I have a big heart and I love to share the love with people that I love. My mom had hip replacement surgery last week and I've been in town helping her with stuff around the house, errands, bathing, cooking, and whatever else I need. I also love to be active and be out doing stuff. It has been hard this week to get over getting to do what I want to do and to stay at home helping her. It's hard to turn down friends inviting me out on boats, out to the bar, or whatever. I'm all about helping and I'm more than happy too but it also is lame to feel like I'm missing out on adventures, but it's not about me this week, it's about her...plus I'm not drinking anyhow.

I'm trying to slim down a little bit for my cousin's wedding so I can fit into my bridesmaid dress a little bit more comfortably. I haven't had a drink in a week! That might not sound like a huge deal but it's a mini milestone to me! I've also been having a hard time in quitting smoking but I haven't had a puff since Saturday, that's 5 days! That really REALLY makes me proud!!! I really want to be healthy. Not only so  I don't follow in family's footsteps in getting cancer later in life but just to be HEALTHY overall. It would undoubtedly help my skin problems, allergies, sensitive tummy, and would just make me feel gooooood  :)  It's my not so new and continuing goal in life as of now!

Haha it has been good getting some space from my man friend. I mean I love hanging out with him but it can't be good to hang out EVERY day, right? I really honestly haven't gotten sick of him at all and just hope he hasn't started getting sick of me yet LOL plus it's not like we don't talk everyday anyhow hahahaha I love how we have a way of talking with each other. To an outsider we probably sound like some bi-polar crazies but I like it  :)

Believe it or not I am not a fan of the city anymore. I hate the traffic, I hate the over flow of people, I hate people's disregard for others, and the list goes on.

I also love my mom to pieces but am glad I don't live in the same town. She sort-of can drive me crazy. I'm glad I'm more laid back than she is...she gets worked up and stressed about the smallest things, or things that aren't that big of a deal and just stresses out and puts that energy on everyone around her. It is frustrating and can be annoying but I'm trying to not let it affect me and learn to handle it with a grain of salt. I'm a lot like my mom in many ways but am glad I am laid back and that I don't sweat the small stuff.
