I can already tell that 2008 is going to be GREAT! I lost my motivation in 2007. I got off track, became someone else I didn't know or like, and made some irresponsible decisions that lead me down a path of more uncertainty and confusion. Not to sound too cheesy but, I can see clearly now the "Rain" is gone. The cloudy haze has lifted and I once again can see the woman I am, a little bit wiser now. I have my drive back, I have goals and I 100% plan on achieving them.

Soo...ever feel like your life is a made for Tv mini-movie drama?...complete random thought

I realize that I have been following my hormones rather than my instinct lately. Not the wise-est choice but you live and learn. I am learning that I have to stick by what my gut tells me, and resist temptation (Ohh god it is SO tough!) If I have done it in the past, I can do it again.

I am tired of feeling like others are telling me one thing then doing another. I am tired of feeling like me being a nice and respectful person is cause for others to laugh at me. I am tired of being made to feel like who I am as a person isn't good enough.

I have made a bunch of new friends but I don't even recognize my self any more. It is kinda ridiculous the stuff people will do for attention...like OMG crazy. The attention is nice but I feel as though I am gaining a not-so-sought-after reputation.

I'll figure it out, I always do. It may hurt in the process but I have faith in my self and the way my parents raised me. I haven't always fit in with others b/c of my unwillingness to conform. Ehh..

Amazingly enough I have been perkier this week than I have been in recent weeks. I don't know why, things have just seemed to be going alright lately. Now that I have said all of this it will all go down the toilet. I am excited about school, that in it's self is crazy. I figure, why be down/cranky/crabby/bitter/mean/harsh, when youcan blow all that off and be happy (it will piss off the people who are down/cranky/crabby/bitter/mean/harsh to no end which is a perk)! Okay, now that you all think I have jumped off the deepend I am going to go study for Stats.

So today was my first day not being a PA. It was...relaxing. I am going to miss it, I am going to miss working in the office with Mike and Dan, plus I was looking forward to getting to work with Liz. But I am really excited about this semester, I am going to call a bunch of Grad schools on Tuesday!!! I can't wait for this year to be over so I can get into the stuff I really want to do. This year is full of so many possibilities I can't wait! Good luck Chaya, I know you will be a great PA, some of the downs really suck but the ups are awesome!

Today was a productive day, it always feel good to accomplish something. I am going to miss being PA, but not all the stress. Once school starts I am going to look more into graduate schools. I still can't believe that I want to be a Doctor.
I am so geeked about the staff lock-in, it is going to be a total blast! (Good luck to Ashley on her Triathalon, we will miss you at the Lock-in!) Ohh well, I don't have much to say today, maybe later.

I had a week of doing nothing...it was GREAT!! Though I started the week off with a headache, it ended up being fun. I got a sun burn on my shoulders that hurt REAL BAD! I saw the movie The Island, it was good. I like Ewan McGregor and Scarlette JoHanssen or how ever you spell their names. I went in to Petoskey, Macinac City, and a whole lot of nothing. Read a lot, slept a lot...good stuff. Then when I went to Becky's Wedding on Saturday, it was BEAUTIFUL! Becky looked amazing, it went smoothly. I took my best friend Catherine with me, I hadn't seen her in a while so it gave us time to talk. Catherine got me out on the dance floor, which really is a hard thing to do (if I am intoxicated it isn't that hard). We ended up talking and hanging out with two of the guys from Doug's band (Doug is Becky's husband). Now I get to go back to work, only 19 more days as a PA. It feels good but there is a little bit of a seperation pang, or something like that. Anyway, Life goes on.

Ahh Hanson...you can make fun of me as a fan but don't you DARE make fun of their music!


You are "I Will Come To You"!!


What Hanson song are you?

Today has been a long day. I was productive at work which was a good thing. I went shopping and got a shirt at Steve and Berry's that says "Everybody Loves and Irish Girl"! Plus I got some shorts at Target. I needed some shorts because I am going on vacation on Saturday! I worked the sports camp in the evening, there were not many kids since it is cold outside. I am going to have another long day tomorrow (Good luck Chaya!), it is her PA interview! One thing that bums me out is that I am hearing that no one wants to go to the Lock-In :-( It is going to be a blast so they will miss out on a ton of fun. Ohh well.

I am not sure about some of these things, but they are always fun.

Honestly...if someone would shoot me in the head I would be very happy. I can't get rid of this pain. It goes away for a little bit but them comes back twice as bad. crappity crap crap.

It has been an aweful day. I woke up at 4:30a with a TERRIBLE Migraine, it was so bad it made me throw-up...fun I know. I was supposed to go to Chicago with some professional staff, but that didn't happen. I didn't do anything, in a way I liked being able to sit on my ass all day but nothing was fun. My head hurt do bad that I couldn't read, it was hard to watch Tv, and I can only sleep so much. Grrr...ohh well tomorrow is pay day and I will feel like I have money for maybe 20 minutes, that is until I have to pay off all my bills then I will go back to being poor. Okay, I should try to go to bed. Night!

Okay here is what I did today:
4:05a:wake up
4:05a-4:25a: get ready and leave for work
4:30a: stop off at 7-eleven for coffee
5a-8a: Supervise
8a-1:30p: Aquatics PA
1:30p-2:30p: work out
2:30p-4p: PA again
4p-6p: Swim lessons
6:15p-6:45p: Drive home
7p-8p: dinner and relax
8p-9p: Walk dog
9p-10p: shower and get ready for bed
10p: BED!!!!

So some of it is a little bit in advance, but any ways. I was wondering if anyone knows how to put pictures up on here.
