When Life happens

Yesterday I had a pretty frustrating morning. First I decided I didn't want my 3DS anymore because well it just wasn't me and so I go back to Game stop to return my $250 purchase. Only to get $136 for it! I couldn't believe it! First of all if I would have known that I would never have bought anything from them. It's absolutely ridiculous but I just wanted my money back. Me and my boyfriend were so mad but eventually calmed down and ate some lunch before he had to go to work.

Then it all came crashing down. He forgot his badge so I told him I was coming back downtown anyways and will bring it to him. Then when I got home I found his phone in my car that he also forgot. So my brother and I decided to walk downtown to get some exercise but I get a call from my mom saying that my boyfriend called her telling her that he got FIRED!! Which is now the reason I hate Hilton and will boycott against them and Game Stop :).

Oh man I turned back around to get to my car and get to where he was a soon as I could. I felt this sense of hurt for him and felt like he needed me. I don't know if he really did but I knew I needed to be with him. So I get there and he has the saddest face ever :(.
Really broke my heart. So yesterday was all about cheering him up and I'm pretty sure he's back on track. As a matter of fact he already got a job working at Jiffy Lube with my two older brothers.

It all seems so surreal and so perfect that he would jump back up on his feet so fast. I think he is truly blessed and I love him. And will always come to his defense. So mama bearish :D.

Something Beautiful today

Let me just say that I really wish I was a dedicated gardener. I would love to see things grow. But maybe my inability to stay focused on one thing for too long inhibits me from doing this. Either way I do enjoy spring and the bright green on the sides of streets. I love the smell of trees and leaves. And flowers are just so beautiful. When did God decide that he will just make a whole lot of different flowers? So here is a picture of something that should bring a good feeling in the soul.

Hard to Find a Motivation

I am pretty sure that a lot of people can relate to this title. I have no idea what it is but whenever the sun comes out I get sleepy and don't want to be out. I don't know whats wrong with me. I don't have the motivation to even write this blog, or clean my room or play my sims. Maybe I am having an off day or off month. Geez I have been out of school for a month and I just couldn't wait to do all these things and now I am complaining on not doing anything. By george we got a problem.

I am thinking that I should change my purpose for this blog though. I am going to work at Starbucks so I thought I might go a little above and beyond and know all the different coffee's to make. I just found out that a macchiato and latte are almost the same thing except that the milk goes first in the macchiato then the coffee and coffee goes in first in a latte and then the milk. You get a strong coffee first taste with a macchiato and then the sweetness of the milk. And of course the latte is just sweet and yummy.

So maybe that's it... that's the answer to all of life's questions, coffee!

Without Words

I haven't posted in a long time. Too long I guess and this is the update. I cheated on my new meal plan of good food. I didn't last long at all, although I have lost 5 pounds and kept it off. I guess all I need to do is stop being lazy and actually get to it right?!
I am in the process of getting a job at the airport, at Starbucks. It's pretty silly but I've always wanted to work there. So it's paying minimum wage but I don't mind. I'll be working an overnight shift, which by the way pays 50 cents more and I AM SO EXCITED!!
Just did my fingerprinting today, I have to say I am glad that they don't put the black ink on our fingers anymore to do that.
The more crazy news of my life can't be exactly told well because I'd have to kill ya :D
Okay not really but the skinny of it goes a little like this. My brother and his baby mama of 3 kids aren't really taking care of their kids instead my dad, which is a not so great dad and his hill billy girlfriend are. I've always didn't like this because It just isn't right. First off that's my dad, my brother is my half brother from my mom so the kids are not even with blood relatives. They have lived in town about 15 mins away and now are deciding to move to the mountains or something and thats about 2 to 3 hours away. NOT SO GREAT right?! Well now we are going through a custody craphole, me and my mom to get these kids with real relatives. Geez my life is crazy and I would get into more details but all that is kind of personal. One main point is that my dad is still married to my mom... dun dun dun!!!
Okay on to the next subject...
Summer!
Other than my job I don't have any other plans. I need ideas. Yesterday i went to a city that is a couple hours away and it was great. Me, my little brother and my boyfriend went to the sea life center. I love the sea lions!! Okay next place would be a 5 hour trip or a 9 hour trip. But really I want to go to California or Washington or even Florida.. I need some real sun in my life!

So it's actually hard

After spending a week just filling up on the food I won't be able to eat anymore, I finally get the time to go on base and get some Healthy food. I was jamming to my music and when I get there I hand the guy my card and he says good day and then tells me to pull over because it's ILLEGAL to have studded tires on base. (side note: I live in Alaska and we have to change over our tires and i guess i missed the dead line) So i pull over not knowing what to do and so frustrated and embarrassed and kind of scared to be honest. I kept thinking they were going to shoot me or something. BUT luckily I got off with a warning but i had to leave base. SO i go home load my tires in the car, go to Johnson's tire service, walk around and find the new Shatter nail polish, and then get my car back. After I unloaded the old tires into the shed I headed back to base, got on without any problems. As you could imagine I was exhausted to I tried so hard to get all the stuff I needed and head out. It turns out when you rush you end up forgetting things UGH!!
So today was DAY ONE and I am so hungry and want fried foods and feel like dying. I am being a little dramatic but not as much as my little brother, he literally sat there and gagged as he ate a ceasar salad w/o dressing. I do admit it did need dressing but he was being a drama QUEEN!!
Today is almost over and i can't wait even though I have 16 more days to do until I can have bread I just want to sleep and not think about the pain in my stomach =/

*HELP ME LORD*

Food; I try to resist

I don't know about you, but getting healthier always means I can't enjoy the foods i love. And i love food. I would marry food if I could, I would let my self be obese except i wouldn't :]
I know that there are a lot of ways to incorporate the foods you like without overdoing it. But it seems to me that I can't get what i love without overdoing it. When was the last time you only ate the serving size in a bag of chips?? been awhile huh. I try so hard but fail all the time. I've even tried wheat pasta and ewwwwww it was gross. SUCH a big change.

Some things I always cut out are
1. Fast Food
2. Junk food
3. Soda (any kind, dark or light)

Those seem to be the only foods that contribute to my weight gain.

Okay all I've been talking about is what's good to get thin. But there are things that matter, like what makes you happy? I went to a counselor some years ago and she figured I was just pessimistic, and I am, so she told me to write down several things that I am grateful for everyday. I did this and I was a lot happier. It actually makes a difference in your life.
Today I am grateful
1. That school is finally over
2. For sleep
3. For utilities, especially water
4. That I have two living parents
5. That my dogs are always happy to see me

These are my dogs. They are King Charles Cavalier Spaniels, and I simply adore them. Kylie is the reddish brown dog, she is 3 years old and Charlie the blenhiem is just barely a year old now. This picture was taken last year when I first got him. I will upload a more recent one of them, I don't have a picture of them together, not good ones anyway. So these are my babies, they often piss me off and bring me joy. I am hoping that Kylie is pregnant (crossing my fingers). Been waiting a long time so that will make me very happy.

Kind of got side tracked there but there are some things that make me smile. Do more of smiling and less of frowning and more likely you'll outlive a turtle :]

Activity: Basketball

Yes today I played some basketball at the school just around the corner with my Mister, who will soon be proposing to me :). Anyway it was so fun and I guess the best part is just laughing at myself and at him for missing or in a shocked way when we make it by throwing it without looking. I am pretty sure this constitutes for a workout I mean i wasn't out there for an hour but I felt so exhausted by the time I was done I barely had the energy to throw a free throw, which is very serious.

I guess my love for basketball started with this movie (shown above). Love and basketball, I first saw it in middle school and fell in love with "Q" (omar epps) Which is quite silly now because I do not find him attractive. I just loved the story of how a boy and girl grew up together and ended up with one another. What a fairy tale right?!
Anyway I played in high school my freshman year, ended up on the JV team and was a starting five player. Another BIG deal. I would have been in varsity the next year but my mom got sick, and well that's another story. But even though i still do love throwing that ball and crossing my fingers it makes it in. To my surprise every time I do make it in I always blame it on luck. :] but i know i must have some skill.
I wonder what tomorrows activity will be? Maybe I should start with some real deep SPRING CLEANING!
