Winter forever?

So I had this random thought- while I was freezing my toes off in the office.
I really do not want Winter to come to an end.

I HATE summer. I dont like being sweaty, there are so many bugs out during summer and clothing choices are not as fun...

Here's to winter and all the things I love about it.
[ & autumn, I love autumn ]

#1 Hot chocolate

#2 Colorful Scarves

#3 Boots!

#4 Christmas

#5 Snow (okay I live in Vegas but still)

#6 Fireplaces

#7 Fluffy comforters & blankets

Best Husband Ever



1.16.2012

I'm feeling honest.

This is going to be a theraputic post. So be warned, it's bipolar.


I've come to terms with the fact that I have a lot of anger inside. An anger that's waiting for just the right face to take it out on. Its probably a good thing that I stay away from people who mistreat me or give me a negative feeling, or they may have to tack on 'anger management problems' on top of the long list I'm sure has already started about me...

[ It's quite hillarious, that a girl like me- who hardly leaves the house, can count on one hand the number of friends she has, none of which are close friends- who finds social situations tiring- can cause so much gossip to stream out of selfriteous mouths into hungry ears ]


Surprisingly, this post is coming from a peaceful place. I've been doing well, keeping busy, back in school and seeing clearly ahead of me. For a while, the road called life has been foggy and the drive has been dangerous... as of late, the skies have cleared.

I know what I want out of life and I know that there are certain things I may not get... Ive come to terms with this.

I've also become more aware of how lucky I am, with a husband like him by my side.
There are times where I feel like we don't belong together, we don't have enough in common- yes I'll admit to these thoughts...

But there's no man out there with enough patience to love me the way he does.

He understands me. The real me. I've never been so brutally honest with anyone in my life.
He is the patience I lack, the innocence that I've lost and the only person I could ever apologize to full heartedly.

For the first time, I'm a whole person in a relationship with another person. We are not one half of a person, we do not make a whole. We are two people, with two hearts and two minds who happen to love eachother.

I don't feel the need to like the same things as him or participate in all the things that he does. I dont find the need to change myself or become less of me just to fit into his life, the way other people seem to when they get into a relationship. Instead, I embrace the things he does and he inturn, respects the things that I do. We support eachother.


That's all I need.


- Its become apparent to me that I have alot of forgiving to do. To people who probably feel as if they have no reason to be forgiven. Sometimes I think that writing letters that will never be sent would help but its no different than on paper or in my head.


So here is a promise to myself. The novel I've been trying to write (years in my mind/months on my computer) it will get finished. Those people will be in it and their sins, written down and immortalized. That will be my peace.

New Beginnings

I think the gray clouds have parted to let some sunlight in.
I made the decision to stay home and go to school for graphic design.

My dad and I spoke and when I said I didnt think I wanted to study art and just get a quick degree in some other field, he seemed offended. My father is an artist as well and I'm the only one of my siblings who inherited that talent. He didn't want to see me waste it. Which he's right.

Ive taken for granted a talent I was blessed with that I was born with. Its not something you can learn.

I chose graphic design because it has so much freedom. I can still do the fine art aspects that I love, ie. painting and drawing. Then on top of those things add the digital element which open doors to even more possibilities.

I am so excited for this new chapter in my life, no matter how late it came.
Thanks to my friends at AI, Katy Beth & Ryan. They are helping so much move this all along quickly for me.

And most importantly, to my husband. Who gave me the biggest hug & kiss, telling me how proud he is of me to be finally reaching for my goals. ( Not even shedding a single drop of sweat when the price of tuition came up)

( A funny picture my friend Vanessa took of me getting overly excited about the horses during my visit at AI )

A HappyMagical Time

Asside from the depression I've been experiencing, I was truly happy when we visited the Universal Studios in Florida. Mostly because of Harry Potter World. I was smiling like a dopey child, hopped up on Butterbeer and (for the first time) enjoying a ride. Im a very big wuss when it comes to thrill rides and I actually enjoyed the twists and turns of the Harry Potter ride... I think riding on a broomstick being chased by a dragon is quite a thrill!

Here's my husband and I eating at The Three Broomsticks


The food was great, in my opinion. We got all the drink options. Pumpkin Juice, Butterbeer frozen & not.





I truly cherish the memories we made that weekend.
