the main purpose of this post is to show off my new icon. I love this kid. I am bored and I need to be reading a book for school... I just haven't yet. BLAH. I am scheduled for 12 hours of school this coming semester, really excited about it too... Step one to get myself to ESPN.

So today is rainy but not in a thunderstorm gonna blow your house down kind of way. More like in a calming way, and I just realized its 11:45 and I need to get in the shower. where did my day go? I was gonna post a long entry but I will do that when I get off tonight. Its middle day, 3 more and my weekend awaits!!

Dear Stan Van Gundy. Play JJ! SOrry I can only say that so many times on my twitter.

So I know I said I would be better at this whole LJ thing, but I haven't... and Im sorry for that... In my defense, I have had a few health issues. I went to the hospital emergency room like 3 weekends ago, bc I couldn't focus on anything. It was scary and not cool. And I went to an eye doctor and he told me to go to a neurologist, but I haven't done that yet, and Im not sure I am going to... more for the fear of what I find out than anything.

I am stuck at work... and I pretty much really don't want to be here...

Me and the roomate are talking about moving back to TX in March, its just in the talking stage at this point but, it could go into fruition. Granted, I won't be moving back to Amarillo, more like the Austin area... bc that's where we want to go next. However a friend suggested that I move to Portland Oregon and I haven't completely shut the idea out of my brain just yet.

I know more than anything I want to go back to school. If that happens in Portland, OR of Austin, TX I don't really care at this point, as long as I can go to school. I finally know what I want to do, and I know what steps I need to achieve it. I might not make a million dollars doing what I want to do, but I honestly believe it will make me happy. And what could be better than sports and a computer? I cant really think of anything. If I have to start out at a news station or a newspaper than I will. But Im determined now, and I have goals that I want to accomplish which is more that I could say three years ago.

Anywho... Im still pumped for Twilight, and I can't wait for the movie. I am going to buy tickets when I get paid so I know for sure I have a ticket.

I also need to find a second job again. I could probably go to Old Navy, and explain that our scheduler got fired and our schedules have been coming out by the week instead of three weeks in advance like I had originally told them and that might be enough of an excuse to get me a job there, except that our schedules are still all stupid, and they don't seem to be trying to fix it. So I might have to count that out. I thought about applying at target or something, but I dont know yet. I need to make 400 extra bucks a month and put it all away for the move that is still only in the talking stage, but will probably become more than that soon. I have 80 hours of vacation that I have to use for said move, so I am good paycheck wise to get me there, but I need money for the truck and the new apartment and all of that.

So thats pretty much whats going on in my life at the moment. I still cant wait for Taylor Swift's new cd and Nickelback as well.

Sidenote*** I so didnt know Joe and Taylor broke up, and she is like all bitter and sad, and I feel bad for her. She said one of the songs on her new cd is about him... speculation as to which one. my guess is Breathe, and thats sad.

DUKE BASKETBALL IS BACK!!!



Alright I'm out - gonna keep staring at people passing by and answering the phone bc that's all I have left to do today.

Can it be November yet? No really like could it be November 11 today? I love the month of November, and this one isn't any different. I usually like this month anyway, but its even better this month bc...

November 11 - Fearless / Taylor Swift
November 18 - Dark Horse / Nickelback
November 21 - T W I L I G H T!!



I am going to spend this weekend by myself having a twilight re-read. Will be LOTS of fun!

So I'm bored. AGAIN. I am stuck at the service desk waiting for time to pass. Kind of a given when working up here. Bryan and Philicia are up here attempting to take their in focus quiz. I did that stupid work out video today but it didnt bother me as bad as the cardio one did the other day, that thing totally kicked my ass. It's sad when my life is equivalent to nothing, and therefore my journal amounts to nothing. Wow. That kind of really maybe completely sucks more than a little bit. Im not sure how long this SC thing will last. I called and wished my cousin happy birthday and she misses me, they all do... this is good for me, and the more I tell myself that, maybe it will get a little easier.

So.. I was just going through all my old entries and I totally laughed bc it's crazy how much I have changed since I started this thing. I think this is probably my only form of communication to the internet world at the moment bc me and my roomie dont have internet or a computer that really works all that well... however we do have our phones and I can get the internet mobile but what fun is myspace and facebook w/o the music? I'll tell you... it sucks!

So my mom is coming to visit me on the 21st and Im mega excited, I didn't think I would be but I totally am... She is flying for the first time which is just crazy in itself.

Has anyone heard Nickelback's new song Gotta Be Somebody?? Bc its pretty freakin awesome if you haven't and I am like 938493 kinds of pumped for their new CD, it comes out Nov 18, and its called "Dark Horse", don't really know what thats all about but its okay.

I am rambling bc my life is boring now, like really really boring! I go to work and then I come home and I read a book or four and then I watch TV and sleep. We haven't really made any friends here yet but we are working on it... we are going to a church for the first time tonight and its weird for us to be there for the first time on a Wednesday but we will see how it goes and if we like it, I might go by myself on Sunday, since Serenity will be in Dallas at a wedding.

Alright I'm stopping my rambles, but have no fear there will be more to come Im sure, what with my exciting life and all.

Peace, Love and Bulletproof Marshmellows!

Sooo... its been like eight billion years since I have written in this thing. I live in South Carolina now, crazy right? IK. I still work at HD, and I probably will for a little while longer. At least until I can get myself back into school, which I am going to be getting my mass comm degree so that I can get a job at some news place at least until I can make it to ESPN, which is the ultimate goal. And its a long ways off but hey at least I have a goal now. Im not sure how long it will take me to reach that goal but its a realistic goal none the less. Alright I gotts make this short, got a manager coming. Later!

So...I am stuck in tool rental and I have managed to manuver my way around the fire wall and access denied stuff to do this. I should update the ppl of LJ on my life. So much has happened since I last updated my journal.

First things first, I finally moved out on my own, and its great. I dont love all the responsibilities that come with it, but I do love the freedom, its nice to be able to do what i want, not that I couldn't before, but since I lived in a small town, and gas is like $5225135 a gallon, I couldn't really go anywhere or do anything. I live in "the city" which is the equivalent of 300,000 people. Not really a huge city, but there is quite a bit more to do there than there is in ptown. I have been at my job since Oct. of 06 and I still love it. Like I get pissed off and it sucks when they make promises they cant keep, but for the most part, I dont mind it. It gets boring, but I have tried to stop that from happening too often by learning all that I can. I know how to do paint, services, cashier, returns, and I can cover in tool rental when needed. The more IK the more valuable I am, and I think that I have done a pretty good job at proving myself. I live with a roomate, I attemped living with Banana but that didnt work out so well, bc she has this thing where she likes to party and not go to work, and so yeah that was a negative. I live with my friend Serenity, so far everything is all good, I hope it continues to be that way, I cant really see why it wouldnt but you never know. She is pretty much my best friend now, we are so alike and so different at the same time. Its freaky how alike we think, and then can turn around and do things completely different than one another. Its a new year and I am hoping to make this year a good year. Last year I didnt put much effort into it, and this year I am going to. I have every intention of cutting the crap out of my life, whether that be the things I say, the things I eat, my lazy attitude, I am really going to strive to make this year a good great one. I want to go back to school in the summer, probably for radiology, but IM not sure about it yet, I do know that I want a college degree and I have every intention of making it happen. Im more motivated than I have ever been and Im trying to stay positive and happy. Okay I think I am done, I could have probably put a couple breaks inbetween but what fun would that be?!!?

Peace out!

Wow, it's been a while. I have been super busy with work and getting a life outside of ptown for the first time ever. So I kind of had a crush, if you can call it that on this guy that works at home depot sometimes, he's a vendor and his name is Billy, but I kinda havent seen him in almost two weeks, if I dont see him tomorrow I guess its safe to say he is gone. That makes me sad, bc I actually talked to him and it wasnt one of those crushes that I get just by looking at you things, oh well, I'll get over it. Or at least I will try to...

I highlighted my hair again and its gettin pretty blonde... Im not sure if its blonde enough yet, I want serious highlights for the summer.



I havent been up to much other than work, I finally got full time, and now Im throwing around the idea of cosmetology school if only for a lack of something to do... I kind of want a second job as well... I have to keep busy now, bc Im not goood at just sitting and doing anything anymore... hence why I have neglected my livejournal...
