Lots and Lots of Changes


Okay so time flies when you're having fun! Or stressed out of your mind. Both work.
I have officially been dumped for the first time in my life a few months ago. It was an interesting experience - it's definitely easier doing the dumping. But it was done on very good grounds, very good terms, and both of us are going to be happier for it. Every relationship/break-up I've had God has taught me something new about relationships and people and this was no exception. I went through a whole rollercoaster of emotions but ultimately I felt like God had planned this all out and there's still a larger plan at work. So... yeah. I thought you all should know so you don't ask how the boyfriend is. I will just reply that I am currently accepting applications. haha.

Meanwhile while in my mental turmoil I had to manage to get through my semester of school when my heart was definitely not in it. I count it as a major blessing and tender mercy that I was able to get my but in gear enough to pass all my classes with A's before I did any major damage to my school career. It was definitely hard and I was so excited for summer break.

On top of all of this I learned that I am allergic to eggs. Anaphylactic allergic. I have an epi pen to stab myself if I react so strongly that I stop breathing or have a significant drop in blood pressure. No lie. This is a big adjustment knowing something I eat could potentially kill me. This has only added to the stress pile of life. My anxiety just loves this whole thing. **sarcasm**


Then day after the break up, my good friend Ashley took me to Disneyland to cheer me up! It was definitely a nice break for my mental state so I couldn't dwell too much on what happened. I ended up having a pretty good time all things considered. We even tried out a different restaurant in New Orleans Square. Sooooo yummy! Our waiter was awesome and we told him so but he said, "Nah, I'm just Tim. But there are times I look in the mirror and wonder who Mit is." HAHAHA. Loved him.

(Can you believe all of that happened in the same MONTH? Crazy. March was hard.)


I also had my 10 year high school reunion this year. That made me feel old. I mostly hung out with a couple of friends who came. I missed my friend Nicole and we talked for 2 hours after the shindig ended because we had so much catching up to do.

Shortly after thatl I threw a baby shower for my sister Lizzie. It was book themed and I had so much fun collecting baby/child books and character stuffed animals. Lizzie now has an excellent library of books for her baby to be envied of all other children. We were so focused on good hosting that we took ZERO pictures. We are terrible family members. I am only consoled by the fact we spoiled her with our gifts. That baby will be so loved! Can't wait for her to come in the next few weeks.

Rushing!

Sorority Life . Not what I thought, at least for Lamba Delta Sigma . To begin with, I didn't know what a sorority was until the day I joined. I thought it was full of prissy girls who go shopping, gossip, and wear pink all the time (kind of a Legally Blonde persona, see picture). But my friend Nadia didn't want to join alone so she dragged me along and convinced me to do it too. By the time I left the first day, I could see my presumptions were wrong. It wasn't full of silly blondes in pink skirts and high heels at all, instead they were all young women like me. This was great news because now I can tell blonde jokes without having to explain them fifty times! Since I'm not taking classes this fall I decided I needed a change in things to make sure I keep active, especially after not doing too much this summer when it came to friends. Not that it was that bad being a homebody. Watching my sisters turn their pretty faces into gruesome troll expressions is quite ...

Believe that the Earth turns Slowly

[Photo taken by me at Aphosian Gardens 2008] Life is moving really fast for me now. I can't believe how many things will happen within the next two weeks, most of which I'm not entirely prepared for. First of all, my  birthday in a couple days. I'm young yet, early twenties but am I the only one who finds it weird when they become a year older? I don't feel much different than I did last year, and with everything going on it doesn't feel like my birthday. Normally I start counting down at the beginning of December because I just add 2 weeks onto the countdown to Christmas. This year, at the beginning of the week I had to count to make sure my birthday was actually this weekend. I'm just too preoccupied to think about it much. I also have school starting next Monday, and I'm going part time, but I'm working part time at crazy hours running back and forth from school and work, and my best friend gets married right after it starts. At least her wedding isn...

Bibliophile - Book Lover - That's me!

I absolutely love to read. My whole family is a bunch of readers and every one of us has our own collection of books. (Mine covers my ledge stretching along my 9 foot wall... and I ran out of room for them.) When I was younger (maybe 10) I found out my Grandma Walker kept track of every book she read in a journal and wrote it down, so I began my own book journal. So since 1997-ish I've written down each book's title, author, summary, date finished, how much I like it, and number of pages. I like to keep track of how many pages I've read in a year and the most I've ever gotten was just over 11,000 pages. This year I'm up to about 7,000 which is normal for me at this point. Seeing how I'm obsessed with books I thought I'd mention some of my favorites and favorite authors if you're ever looking for something to read since I have a few people who ask me for reading suggestions as it is. My new found favorite author is Brandon Sanderson. If you haven't he...
