2010... So far anyway...

Its been a hot minute! Soooo much has happened.

I quit my job as a nanny, started working at The Rock WFP, died my hair blonde, lost 15 pounds, and auditioned to go to school at Cornish College of the Arts (Where I was accepted ;] ) to get my BFA. I recently moved to West Seattle and I LOVE it here. I live with my sister and best friend, Charlotte. Money is tight and trying to deal with the hassle of financial aid makes me want to curl up in my bed and sleep forever. But alas! The beautiful sunshine gets me every time.

I'm trying this new thing where I do everything for me that I should have been doing for years. This is not to say that i have turned into some kind of selfish cow who doesn't give to others, I just learned that depending on other people has let me down, and at the end of the day, no matter what that day be, its up to me, myself, and I to make me a happier person.

I have shut my self off to the dating world, not even realizing that I was doing it, because I always told myself "I wasn't ready.." or "I won't have time..", but I think truth be told I am still waiting for that one guy who made me even THINK about dropping my guard to come around and tell me he feels the same. Well. Guess I'll be waiting awhile for that one! Oh well.

That said, I am so excited/nervous to start school! I'm stoked to make new friends that have the same interests as me, who have talent dripping from their ears, and who make me want to be the best I can be. I feel a little behind, being 23 in a class of majority 18 years old, and all. (Holy crap! I'm 23!) But it shall be an eye opening experience that I am ready to put my business pants on for!

I'm trying to do my best to soak up this summer so that all my "party-whoreing" is out of my system. Its fun, I just really need to focus in school. Part of me wants this summer to never end, but a bigger part of me knows it time for me to take that leap and hope I don't land on my ass.


This.... should be interesting...
