Sorcha Rose is here!

This is my niece Sorcha Rose, my brother's new bundle of joy and she is so beautiful! I fell in love with her the moment I set eyes on her! We got to the hospital at like 6am, and I had not slept but these are the pics! SO CUTE!!!

Work...work...and yes more work.

I have been working so much the past couple... well few weeks its insane! I just got promoted at my work... which brought on a lot of stress. First of all when they did my criminal background check it came back that I had a warrant. I was shocked!!! Then I called the courthouse and the lady I spoke too said "umm who told you that you have a warrant? Cause there is nothing here" So I call my work, and I tell my manager what the lady had said. Then it turns my background check came back clear that morning... weird right? So I go to the courthouse and get a document that says I don't have any warrants, nor were any EVER issued, and take that to her at work. I have only ever been pulled over for expired tabs. Which is not a warrantable infraction. I was so relieved to hear this, but at the same time... I WAS SO STRESSED OVER THOSE COUPLE DAYS!!! So now, this week is going to be oh so fun! (do you sense the sarcasm?) I am working 9 hours tomorrow, then I will be in Seattle all day on Sunday for Bumbershoot! Till about 1 am... then I get to go to work open to close the next day! I am already so tired of it. It's experience. But its VERY tiring. I am trying to get back into the Pharmacy field. My grandpa really wanted me to do that. So wish me luck in this adventure/path in my life! Im going to need it! As for everyone I hope you are all well and doing great! Miss you all!

*hugs*

More pics of my trip.

I thought that I would post some more pics of my trip and my cousin's wedding. I had such a great time there. It was nice to see my family.

This is my cousin Brandon. Caught him making a funny face!
My aunt with Brandon's little girl Angelez. She was adorable. I got to hold her for a little while, then she realized she didn't know me. ha ha

My Aunt Sue and my beautiful cousin Sheena. She was such a beautiful bride. I am so happy for her.

Sheena and her dad coming down the isle.

This is my dad, his fiancee Carol (I LOVE HER), and mi abuelita.

You can't really tell, but this is the humpback whale we saw on our glacier cruise. It was so close we could hear it blowing water of its spout. THAT WAS AMAZING!

These were the otters just chillin on their backs! It was so cute cause they were just staring at us as we slowly went by. I had no idea they get up to 5 feet, and 100 pounds. They aren't all that small.

This is the polar bear at the zoo, he was very cooperative for the camera!

And this is the house I spent a lot of my time in. There are a lot of memories in that house. When we drove by I almost thought I would see their cars in front of it. The yard is very different... but the house still looks that same on the outside.

Well I hope you enjoy the pics. I know I had a lot of fun up there. It was a great escape while it lasted.

You're a constant echo, I hear ringing in my ears...

I don't know if many people can relate, but I am sure some can. I just wish my life would get back to normal sometimes. I miss the normal part where my grandpa was still alive, I miss a certain someone so much. I try not too. I never thought that I would be where I am at right now. I guess it's all part of God's plan for me, and I try to have faith in him and know that he wants me to learn from these situations I get put in. But it's so hard to accept. I guess to accept and move on. I try to be strong but it's so hard when all you want to do everyday is cry because your life changed from normal to what the heck is going on? Where am I? I just wish I could breathe. My heart aches so bad lately, and I miss my family. I miss the structure. I have alienated myself from so many people, and it's because I get tired of faking happy. I try to be happy for real, but it's hard when you feel like you can't cry.

Back from Alaska.

Well. I went to Anchorage. I had a lot of fun. My cousin got married, we went to the zoo, went on a glacier cruise... got to see my family. It was nice. I almost didn't want to come home. Ha ha! These are some of the glaciers we saw from the boat. We got really close and its amazing how cold it was, just from the wind coming over it.


Just a few pics from our trip. It was AMAZING.

Happy 4th!

So, it's the 4th. I don't think I am doing much at all... I have to work today and no one really has anything planned. I think I may just go over to my dad's and chill with everyone there.

Well be safe! Don't blow your hand off! Remember kids... if it goes up or blows up... it's ILLEGAL!


Heh heh. Have a good one everyone!!! *HUGS*

I wear my sunglasses at night...

I HAVE A NEW OBSESSION!

I have finally had the joy of seeing Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children and let me tell you... it's absolutely amazing! I also started playing Final Fantasy VI today. I played it for 4 hours! INSANE! I guess I just lost track of time.

It was WAY too hot to do anything today. I attempted to start cleaning and packing up the bedroom but every little move I made I ended up breaking out in a sweat. Our apartment is right on a pond as well... so it was super humid out here! Anywho.. other then that not much to update on. Now that it's cooling down I think I will make an attempt to pack. YUCK!

Just a small update.

The
Animals!

= I miss so many things=

Well a lot has been going on in this past year. Lots of hardships, and lots of learning. I have learned that people are not always who they seem, and you can find a true friend in someone you have only known for a short time, in comparison to someone you have known for a long time. I have decided to try to keep this up to date, due to my lovely mother in-law. [Thanks Judie!] I had the chance to visit with her today, and it was awesome. I miss them and that part of my family a lot. I learned that just because things didn't work out with me and Ryan, it doesn't mean they love me any less or not at all. I really miss him at times too. But I will always be his friend.

Well I have been living in Kent, and its nice. A bit far out to visit anyone a lot because of the insane gas prices! My goodness they are crazy! I remember when I first started driving the prices were $0.89!!! Oh to have it be that now! Frida is getting big! She is still my little girl! I don't know what I would do if I didn't have her! We also have gotten her a little friend! His name is Diego but we call him booger. Well I think that is it for now. It's getting late... and Amanda needs sleep.
