Goodbye 2011, Hello 2012!

2011 has been a roller coaster of year and as cliché as it may be I am writing to take a final look at the year and say goodbye; so here it goes.

Merry Christmas/ Aaaaaachooooooooo

Happy Holidays everyone, I know I missed out on a Christmas post I have been sitting at home with a cold since Friday. I hope you all had a very Merry Christmas; I spent the majority of my day asleep, literally. I took so much cold medicine I was probably awake for just gift opening and a few hours before I went back to bed, I’m still not feeling peachy keen so fingers crossed I feel better when I go back to work tomorrow.

Happy 14th Birthday Anna!

Happy birthday to my beautiful little sister Anna. Its crazy how big you are getting and how fast time is flying by. It seems like yesterday when the bald little baby was brought home to us and we were now a family of six.

Fangirling and good music; recap!

So today seemed like a long day.
I know I said I would have my “Blast from the Past” entries finished by tonight but honestly I have had no time whatsoever. For those who actually enjoyed those, I apologize. Like I mentioned before I received more hours for the week till school starts, I may be only working part time but it is still a lot of work nonetheless. 30 hours a week, 10 more and I would be considered full time! Eh, I am not complaining because I know those after Christmas sales will be calling my name on the 30^th!

Busy, busy, busy; recap!

Hello there everyone.

I just wanted to give you an update on what has been going on. As you all know I was writing the “Blast from the Past” entries but unfortunately I had to stop. Last Friday when I was supposed to write “Junior Year” my paper got erased and theeeeeeeeen my internet stopped working, how convenient right?

Happy Birthday Momma Dearest!

Happy birthday Mother Dearest! You don’t look a day over 40, and you get even more beautiful with each passing year. I am so thankful that God created you as my momma. You are truly the most loving, thoughtful, selfless, compassionate, caring, giving, amazing woman that this world has ever seen. You constantly amaze me in the ways that you care for others before yourself.

Blast From The Past: Sophomore Year!

Sophomore year was an interesting year for me and one that I fairly enjoyed. I was 15 years old going on 16 and my favorite activity, aside from band, was tennis. That particular tennis season was will filled with new friends, new challenges and new memories. Where you have memories you know that there is a fun (or annoying) song to go with it.

Blast From The Past: Freshman Year!

The year of 2005-2006 I entered my freshman year at Santa Cruz Valley Union High School, pretty much the worst year of high school. I hated that year for many reasons, I hated the way people assumed that they had to grow up right then and there and they way their attitudes changed. But that year also brought wonderful new friends, friends who are still here to this day such as one of my best friends, Berna.

Blast From The Past: Eighth Grade!

Welcome to eighth grade, the year you feel like an upper classmen and boss the little seventh graders around even though you were just in their shoes the year before. 2004-2005 I was 13 going on 14 years old and there was so much to handle that year, such as making campaigning posters for myself since I was running for Student Council Secretary/Treasurer that year.

Gray skies and lullibies...

I have a special playlist for when I sleep, filled with Indie and Acoustic songs and maybe just a few others. I may seem weird to you but as I stated in a previous post I love making playlist for different moods and if you didn’t read that post, it is listed here.

Blast From The Past: Seventh Grade!

I listen to music 99.9 percent of the day. From the moment I wake up there, the first thing I hear is music from my radio after that I turn on Jumpstart in VH1 and watch/listen to those videos as I get ready for work. When I do actually go to work, I pop on my earphones and listen to Pandora or my music library on my phone, yeah you get the picture. Music has been there for me through thick and thin and holds so many memories within.

Late night rambling...

It is a few minutes after midnight and here I am with a wandering mind. A mind that can't help but think of the what ifs and what needs to happens. It has been about nine months now and still to this day my mind wanders vigorously about such things. A part of me is somewhat fine with it because I wish to hold onto memories that are pleasant. However the more I wish to think about such things my heart aches leaving myself feeling hopeless and defeated. It is a lose-lose situation.

Happy Birthday Nana!

Dear Nana,

It’s been thirteen years since you’ve been gone and there are no words to explain how much I miss you. Ever since I was eight years old I would hear stories about little girls and boys with their grandmothers and though I have my grandma, I was jealous of them. I was jealous because everyone had fun stories to tell and I longed for one as well. I too, wanted to spend time with my Nana and eat her delicious cooking; Lord knows I long for that but I know that that would never be possible.

Happy 18th Birthday, Kristy!

You’re eighteen today, I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing. Nonetheless I feel ancient, I am not sure where the time went or where I was while it was flying by.
