ready!

Job searching should be my job for as much time I'm putting in. I guess that would mean I'm bad at my job since I can't seem to accomplish anything. Lame. Is this a sign that I'm supposed to be a housewife for the rest of my life? Maybe later. Waaay later. I think its sad that I don't have an absolute dream job. (You guys are lucky.) I'm not sure why this is. When I was little I wanted to write and illustrate my own books. I can't say that wouldn't be a sweet deal. My indifference really bothers me. Maybe its not indifference. I wish I knew what I want to be when I grow up. (Kid at heart!) I wish I knew what my personal legend was or at least where I was supposed to start looking for it. (Read The Alchemist by Paul Coelho) The best I can hope for is pursue my bachelor's degree and find what I'm looking for on the journey. I can do this! I'm ready!

P.S. I have awesome, wonderful, motivating, inspiring people in my life. I love you guys!

Pictures I took long long ago. I should get a new camera.

ROFL

This is quite possibly my favorite building in Seattle.

I guess it means 6 more weeks of winter. Boo. Well, if it doesn't rain on the 14th I'll be a happy camper. I wish I could post about what I'm doing that day but it wouldn't be a surprise anymore. All I will say is it better not rain!

Still on that job hunt...It's rough out there. I know I'll find something. I have to.

I've been trying to go to the gym more often and am eating 80% paleo for the month of February! It's only the second day but I think I'm gonna be alright. Just trying not to think about the things I can't eat (like brownies, milk & cookies, ice cream, sushi...who's idea was this?). It's going to help me cook more too! Yay!

The end of an era came this weekend and I still can't make sense of it all. I think its because what happened changed who I was (for the better) and who I wanted to be. The only way I can sort of describe it would be having surgery. Like I had a scar for years and years, from an intense operation. It definitely doesn't hurt anymore but when I looked at it, I remembered that I got through it. And then waking up one morning with the battle wound gone. I feel like something is missing but at the same time I am relieved. Its bittersweet. I said what I wanted to say and as long as I was able to do that, I'm content. Goodbye. 100%.

A new one :) I actually blushed when I told Pauline about my crush. I am so not normal.



It was his crooked smile and slim fitting button ups in 500 Days of Summer that got me.

Don't worry, Pharrell. You're still number one.

It's December 1st and I feel like I can officially appreciate the season again! Taking a trip to Leavenworth this weekend to start off Christmas time season. I hope it snows! On Friday there's a caroling competition called the Great Figgy Pudding Competition at 6. Ice skating...I loved being in Hawaii last year but I'm glad to be in Seattle.

Lately I've been feeling busy busy busy. Thanksgiving was great! I gotta say I was a little sad that Allie and I came home to an empty house. I watched part of the Macy's parade alone. First Thanksgiving without mom's Thanksgiving but also first Thanksgiving with a significant other's fam. I feel so welcome :) I wish my parents were as obliging. Not that they are mean or anything. I guess its what comes with strict upbringing plus being the baby girl. Sigh. (Don't worry, Marc, my parents like you). This is also the first Thanksgiving since the 8th grade that I didn't go to Turkey Bowl! I made up for it by hanging out with the ones I love and eating ALOT.

What else...My parents landed safely in the PI. 2 more weeks til the end of the quarter. New snowboarding pants, but haven't been on the mountain. I need to Christmas shop!

P.S. I love taking Allie to the dog park.
P.P.S. Happy Birthday Noel!

The VS fashion show was tonight. Here's a vid from my favorite set and my favorite girl Miranda Kerr.
