Alligator? Don't Mind If I Do

  Well you know you had a great and extended day when you wake up physically exhausted the following one. It was adventurous and it was good. For me it's waking up to unfinished chocolate milk from a spontaneous late night trip to Wendy's and a nearly almost finished slice of fudge from Bass Pro Shops left out beside my bed. 

  At 6:15 my alarm went off and although I'm not nearly a morning person, I was rested and ready for this one. It started with creepishly taking pictures of my boyfriend helping some random guy push his car up to the gas station. I still find it attractive when witnessing his random acts of kindness. He's the one with the tight pants on the left hahahaha.

  After a meeting with the School of Worship staff we began our first day back  at Costa Mesa. I embrassed the long hugs and excitement from the students who were happy to be back from winter break, also finding myself in a tight hug from Pastor John Hwang. He is my favorite. If you sat in a study of his and told me you didn't get anything out of it, you would be a first. 

  Then we had lunch at Ruby's to celebrate their anniversary and a fine cheeseburger for only THREE DOLLARS. 

Nothing compares to sitting down and talking with my love. 

  We came out so full we could barely handle walking the mall. We made it all the way to Tiffany's to exchange my ring for a smaller size feeling super in classy with our Ruby's leftovers and my chipped nail polish. I always feel like I don't belong in any fancy place that exists. You know I'll be the girl who trips in her heels or gets food on her face or anything embracing like that. So it's great to find a guy who thinks it's cute...

 I guess I'm turning this post into a journal entry. I don't expect anyone to read it so why not?

  Next I drove home with Jeanette and we pretty much raced to every white car thinking it was Javi hahaha. We made it home to their and I took a nap, showered and got ready in three hours give or take. I feel home there. Calm. Peaceful. One of my favorite places. 

  For dinner I tried alligator and deer and my kind of salmon dish. Mmmm. 

  Dinner and adventuring. Go ahead and assume there was much laughter, bathroom breaks, and gun shopping. Fun fun fun. Also, picture taking per Jeanette's command. (: 

   I love my family. My soon-to-be family I guess I should say. I'm still breaking out of my shell but they make that easy to do. 

  One last long car ride with Oscii and Lyss quickly turned into a Wendy's late night stop for all kinds of dairy, Disney Princess music and looking up Big Bear houses we can call our own someday soon. A castle perhaps?

  I need to stay on top of my blog entrees. Why do I even have this thing?

Happiest Place On Earth

It was a good day indeed! I forgot what it's like to carry my own bags and not have a man to bear the burden for me! Haha! Let's just say, my shoulders will be sore in the morning. It's such a nice thing being able to get signed in to Disneyland by my boyfriends parents. They have the sweetest, most tender hearts. 

-- So I've got a bit of a bad case of wanderlust. It's becoming more serious as the days go by. So today, walking around in a perfect little man made world, I realized how awesome it is to be able to stroll from era to era, theme to theme, world to world. It made me cherish Disneyland all the more.

Mr. Canon

   One of my resolutions that I know I will stick to this year is learning how to use a proffessional camera. Yes, I know, I stink. I'm completely aware but in due time I will learn how to use you, fancy Canon camera. I will be your master. 

-- I fancy the city of Corona del Mar and I will surely be missing this season, both in my life and in Hollow's life. I'll also be missing my favorite Frosted Flakes Ice Cream from his work (B. Candy). All in all, it was a good day. Pizza, my love, the ocean, ice cream, long drives, and Disney are my favorite mix.

January for my 19th time

  Here it is again. Mr. January here to greet us kindly yet all too suddenly. Everything feels the same yet I know it's going to be different. I'm driven and focused on improving who I am. We all bring out our lists of resolutions around this time and as the months carry on, we forget about them. They end up crumbled and dusty under our beds, in the back of our mind. We settle into our new year and everything feels normal again. I want to strive to keep my determination and my goals for as many months, days, seconds as I can. 

   Not to mention that I have someone so wonderful to keep me on my feet, inspiring me to become better. And not to mention that my body is the keeper of who is helping me transform into a better image. So I feel set. 

    I'm thrilled to endeavor in this new chapter of life. The last one was incredible. A chapter I will forever cherish in my memory and in the photographs we took on a wistful, golden day. 

    So here I start this blog because of my love's request. Because, for whatever reason, he believes I need an outlet to excecise my creativity. Here goes nothin'.
