[03 Jul 2008|02:37pm] |
and im really excited.
and im not excited at the same time.
im torn.
im going to miss everyone so much.
and there is no way i will ever find people as amazing as the ones i have met here.
im going to be surrounded by hillbillies and cows.
but thats ok. because im amazing. and i will make it work.
they will probably think i am the devil.
i cant be the superhero as much as i would like to be.
i cant force anyone to change unless they want to.
i can think of a few people i would like to kidnap and take with me.
because thats the only way it would work.
im hearing horrible things about people i used to love.
i hope that you all are going to get yourselves out of your messes.
leave this place forever.
but im leaving at the end of august.
athens tennessee.
im going to save up money go to school.
and then im going to europe.
and im going to do only the things i want to, because life is to short, to be stuck in this place. wishing i could be somewhere else.
i will be back to visit.

-Got an awesome package from Skyler the other day. As well as a rockin' postcard a few days before
-Hung out with Jake today for the first time in a looong time, found an awesome RVCA shirt for $2.50 ("You killed the part of me that cares."), shared some laffs
-The gloominess outside has been kind of nice
-I'm excited to go to bible study tonight, I'm glad I have the time to go these days
-I leave for Portland in 7 days and I am so freaking amped
-My mom has been in Kentucky for a while now, and she doesn't know exactly when she's coming back. It's weird withour her here, but somewhat liberating
-Orlando on Saturday with Trystan for his sister's 21st birthday. We apparently are staying at some B.A. hotel that has it's own LAZY RIVER! woo woo
-Work is the same, but I still love it, especially since we close at 8 sometimes instead of 9
-Things aren't too shabby these days

Life is going pretty well.
I bought a pineapple to cut the top off and grow it. Hopefully it works and I'll have little baby pineapples in 2 to 3 years. Neiman Marcus is amazing and being the assistant department manager for cosmetics and fragrance is even more amazing. I've gotten like $3k work of free cosmetics, fragrance, and skin care already and I've only been there for like 2 months. I love my office, it's nice and quiet and my staff is insane. I work so hard it's ridiculous; but I'm happy doing it...and stressed. I still miss Swatch like crazy, but it looks like that store is going to be closing down, which makes me really happy.
My $600 tax rebate comes this week, then I get to buy my MacBook. I'm super stoked on that and I'm so happy my friends that work there are giving me their employee discount. I'm buying my Burberry python bag tomorrow and I can't wait. $7000 bag that I'm getting for $500 with Juston's discount it's so fucking cute. I feel bad for spending the money, but I haven't bought anything nice for myself in a while and I can afford it- so why not.
Went to Jason's wedding in North Carolina. Hated the drive, but the wedding was a lot of fun. I'm so glad I was able to be there and see them get married.
I think that's about it.

| THE IMPROV DOES NOT SUPPORT UNITED STATES VETERANS! |
[27 Jun 2008|04:27pm] |
|
Last night I attended the 8:30pm show at the Miami Improv. We were seated in a row that had tables behind us. My brother in law who is a veteran of the recent on going war and who served two terms in Iraq has post traumatic stress syndrome and is still a little uneasy with having his back to people. I went to the front of the house and asked the person seating everyone if we could please sit in the back row directly behind which is along the back wall. I explained the situation and he said there was nothing he could do because he could not mess up the seating arrangements that the person seating everyone was setting up. I asked him, if i could speak to her about it and he pointed me to her. Again, I explained to her the situation and if we could please sit at the table behind us. She said that the only way that we could move to that table is if our entire party came back to the front of the house and was reseated and wait until that area would be filled. She also said that at that point she wasn't going to be sitting anyone there because she didn't have any wait staff to attend to that area. Within five minutes there was an entire party of people sitting in the tables behind us.
Is this how the Improv trains its staff to treat someone who has served our country?
I want to make sure that everyone knows what happened here last night and especially that the Miami Improv does NOT accommodate United States Veterans!!

if you didnt already know.
i left california.
i couldnt get my cosmo license there without going back to school
which wasnt an option for me.
not being able to do what ive been doing
really bummed me out.
so, i made the decision to go back to florida
and get my career back to where it was.
my relationship with jeremy is kinda on a stand still right now.
were still close no matter what. if we have a label or not.
right now, i just want whats best for MY future.
so... im currently in new york visiting family.
i should be on my way back down to florida sometime next week.
my awesome roommate and i are getting a beautiful townhouse in westchase in tampa.

Just bought my ticket to go to nyc on 7/11. weee!
I wanted to go this weekend but I forgot my camera at Hisham's place. Gotta have that! This is also why I haven't been updating. Its too bad I couldnt take photos of the coconut cupcakes D:
Also, Im thinking of trying to cocktail waitress on the weekends in Dupont Circle - its good money, way less competitive when compared with bartending, and I can get in the city really easily because I live a 5 min walk from the metro. The endeavor is Hisham-approved, but I think I'd make more money if I didnt wear my ring.

my poppa left this morning, good , bad, happy, sad.
we had fun he went snorkeling for the first time and loved it, I'm glad.
we saw spotted eagle rays and nurse sharks it was fun!!
i am going to talk to my boss today about cutting down my hours on wednesday, im excited because i know she will say yesssssss
its ok if im busy but its pointless to be there for twelve hours when i do nothing but read books for the first 3.
i am doing pretty well with this whole not smoking thing, i caved and had one last night because i was drunky, but other than that i just clean instead of smoke, which is wonderful! even though i have been a very irritable BITCH (im sorry everyone...ecspecially poor baby joe) I feel much better. I'm getting to old , i dont even have the energy to drink anymoreeeeeeeee.
now im going to work and i hope it goes by super fast and i dont ruin anyones day. ciaooooooooo

I'm home and it feels strange as it always does. There's something different about going on a trip with friends and come home, it's like one big exciting thing. but alone, the return feels a little more melancholic. it's just another phase to pass through, before I feel once again comfortable with my life here in Orlando. nevertheless, I had a great time, and it was a good few weeks spent away, to gain perspective and to gain experience. I feel like once again it's time to turn over a new leaf, I'd like to become a little nicer, a little more motivated, all my usual promises to myself. promises like seeds, of everything I could be.

Biff and I got married in a Casino for $20 each last night in Niagara Falls. The falls were beautiful, we lost $10 Canadian currency in the slot machines. It would have been romantic if it wasn't such a funny joke. Thankfully, my dad is an attorney and he'll dissolve the marriage for me tomorrow morning, which is a pretty simple process and free since he's doing it for me. He's a little ticked at me. But Biff and I couldn't be happier. Time to come home...

So you're headed down those tracks
And you're never coming back again
You got a lot of stuff to pack
Yeah, that load might break your back someday
Cause you've got a lot of secrets
That's a fact
So come on back
Alright
You better believe what you're seeing now
You better believe what you're seeing
Yeah what you're seeing, babe
You gotta expect me to wonder who
You gotta expect me to wonder who
Is loving you
Now you're headed down those tracks
All I can see is your back again
You left a lot of stuff behind
Most of it is in my mind this time
And I miss you like I miss you
And that's a fact
So come on back

yesterday's ootd
Ahhhh the weather has been so glorious the past week, we're having such a pleasant summer so far! Exept for today for some reason, it's all overcast and stormy! Both of our animals are acting really weird... I hope it'll get better soon!
On Wednsday ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) faunkegin, her bf, and I all went geocaching up Mt. Baldy! I was such a beatiful veiw, I hope she posts pictures for you all to see soon! I saw the Hulk last night, I liked it :D Tonight a whole bunch of people and I are going up to Corvallis for loveleigh_'s housewarming party wich should be so fun! I'm still not sure what to wear...
Here's what I've been working on today:
You can't really tell from this, but the bottom ruffle, the yoke, and the straps are all a smaller gingham. I love gingham♥
I love posting WIPs becaus it's really motivating for some reason! I don't really understand how... Anyway, I'm almost done with the sewing portion, then I get to start on the strawberry stencil I'm going to be putting along the bottom. Like it?
