Far too long....
Its been far too long since I last updated this blog. A lot has gone on and come to pass since I last wrote on here. My wonderful friend is doing much better. She is actually keeping me a float now. My dad got married in November. I now have three new brothers and a sister. I'm not gonna lie though, that weekend was one of the hardest weekends I've had in a while. I sturggled alot that weekend with feeling alone, left out, and stuck. I felt and still feel sometimes, that my family was changing and going in so many different directions, but I was not. Still working on that aspect, but its getting easier to handle now, and I'm starting to come to terms with it. Trying to look at it as a way of getting a bigger support system. Easier said than done most days, but I'm working on it.
Fall semester ended, and I am proud to say I finished the semester with a 3.85! i was going for a 4.0, but a 3.85 will do. I worked really hard at trying to stay on top of stuff this semester, and I guess you could say it payed off.
Christmas has come and gone, and it was a good day. I recieved money for new tires, which I just got this week, my laptop fixed, and a trip to New York! The trip to New York is a christmas/birthday gift from friends and family. If work will allow three of their cashiers to go, I will be going March 25-April 2! I am so excited for this if it comes to pass!
New Years has come and gone as well. Nothing exciting went on for New Years. had a little party at my best friends a.k.a sisters house, which turned into a big sleep over because we were all too tired to drive home.
I think that brings us to the here and now. I am looking forward to the New Year! I am hoping it will be better than the last two. I have three things to look forward to: first is the wedding of my other best friend Deja. I am so happy for Deja and Lucas! They both deserve the best and that is what they are getting in each other. Next will hopefully be my trip to New York, and then a trip to Louisiana to visit the newly weds!
I only have a couple of new years resolutions. The main one is to put my self first. This may sound selfish, but I have spent my entire life doing what makes others happy, while it makes me miserable. My goal is to make my self happy. I have learned from a couple of friends that if I don't do that, I will head into some very choppy, and hard to stay a float waters. I still know serving others is a huge key to happiness, but so is taking care of my self. I will be going to the singles ward starting a week from sunday, and hope to meet some new people (mainly boys:)). School will be starting on thursday and I will continue to try and stay on top of things there, and in the rest of my life.
My last resolution is to continue to exercise, eat right, and lose more weight. I have lost about 25 pounds and dropped 5 pant sizes. I want to keep going and lose about 30-40 more pounds. I just need to get working out again and making it a habit.
Sorry for the long post, but I believe we are all caught up now. Hope all are doing well and I hope you all have a fantastic year! Love you tons, and will try to update more often.
