madrid

I'M IN MADRID!!!!!! it is absolutely terrifying flying by yourself in a foreign country by the way. I keep getting overwhelming waves of emotion and I burst into tears on the spot; not sure what's with that but it's getting old haha. anyway, I have the best friends in the world for being so supportive of this trip and i already cannot wait to get back and tell them everything!!! BUT i only have 7 minutes left on my purchased internet and must say goodbye for the moment. I'll try to write again! adios!

lost

Sorry guys, I've been kinda m.i.a. the last few days I'm going through a rough patch and really don't feel like talking about it yet. I'm still working on how to handle everything so I don't want to rant about anything yet. I'm a little heartbroken I'll put it that way and so I'm a slight wreck.
I don't really know what else to talk about because this seems to be all I can think about. Sorry I'm being such a downer I just feel a little out of control right now and I'm trying really hard to reign it all in.
That's all I have to say right now, I just feel like laying in bed right now.

help cont'd

FIRST: AHHHH I HATE TYPOS!!!! especially when I notice them in my own typing, I feel like a total failure when I see them haha.

Anyway, back to my previous post. I really am worried about them, but I don't want to enable their current behavior. I was talking to my mom today and she said that they probably have to be with someone to feel good about themselves, which I can understand, and that is a bad habit to fall into, but I also think that that doesn't excuse your behavior around others. I know I just keep saying the same thing but I am just trying to think of something to say to them that would be meaningful, but not offensive. I really think they need to quit doing things for others attention and acceptance and just needs to do what makes them happy for once. I think they need to find a way to not be insecure about every word that comes out of their mouth. I know, easier said than done but it realllly needs to be done!!! I feel so bad for talking about this, but I really am concerned about this situation. hmm bother. well that was a wonderful vent/thinking session. thanks!

on a lighter note, when to sushi with some good people, it was nice to meet new people. really excited for work tomorrow!

AAANNNDDD holy crap, I really have to start preparing for Spain. damn.

help

I've had this thought that keeps nagging at me and I'm not sure what to do. I have this person in my life that is having a hard time, but at the same time I feel like they've brought a lot of it upon themselves. I feel like someone needs to reach out to them and help them, but I don't want to enable their current behavior, but I think if I don't then they will only get worse.
I don't really know how to say what I'm hoping for. I guess I just want them to feel like they are accepted, and that they have someone to talk to, but not whine too! well I will add to this later, I've got to shower and such now!
I think I need to put some more thought into this one.

Preparations

I have nooo motivation today! I am tired and just feel like sitting on the couch and watching tv all day. But I need to get up and be productive and have a good day at work.

I leave for Spain in 11 days and I'm starting to get really nervous about it. I'm going to be living with a family that doesn't speak English!!! And it's for 5 weeks, that is so long. I'm afraid I'm going to be missing out on so many things here at home and work. I know it's a good experience to be away from home and the comfort of what you know but I am scared. I'll be taking classes so that will keep me busy! I am also scared of making friends!!! I know that is a silly concern, but I always get so nervous around new people, especially because we will be trying to communicate in a new language! I have to start getting packed and ready for learning a language. there is a lot to get ready.
So I feel a little better about it, thanks for letting me vent!!

Getting ice cream with my boyfriend tonight!! so excited :)

Duffy - Syrup & Honey

I love this video because it's her recording so it's not tweaked at all and I just love watching artists actually perform and really get into the music.

mother's day

HAPPY LATE MOTHER'S DAY! Mother's day was wonderful this year! we went to J's brother's homecoming at the Mormon church and it was really enjoyable! I've never been a religious person, mainly because I wasn't raised with it, but going to church every once in a while is quite refreshing. While the crying and talking babies aren't very enjoyable listening to the speakers is.

I don't really have much to say today, just that the weekend was awesome and it feels really nice to have finals over with. Today is not the day for deep discussion haha.

Oh one downside to the weekend, i think i broke my toe :(

so that is all for today. sorry, I'll have something better to say later i think.
