So it has been quite some time since I last updated. Partly because I was too lazy, and partly because my computer broke down after I decided that I would finally get the energy to update.
As I recall a lot has happened and occurred since I last updated. That was the Ani concert. And that was beautiful and fabulous and wonderful, charming...all of these words put together.
Since then I worked at Camp Bishop as the head cook for what comes close to 3 weeks. That was an experience and a half. Something new and it was incredibly enjoyable. I re-met and met people I already knew. I became friends with people I would have never expected. I learned things about myself I didn't know, such as: I can make damn good spaghetti for over 30 people, my nachos by the bulk aren't bad either. It was a lasting experience to spend all that time in the same kitchen as my darling German:)...I really don't think I could have asked for a better three weeks.
When we got home things slowed down a little and we just sorta chilled out. I have gone back to work at the YMCA teaching and coaching and ds'ing...I guess that is good. $$.
I also got a job out at my mom's boyfriend's computer store (which is where this entry comes from, because my computer is still under the weather) I am the "friendly-faced girl". I don't really know a thing about computers other than the usual, but he needed someone to run the place...so here I am:)
Things with Tristen are going very well. I love the kid so much. We have our dummy little stints, but overall things are well. He is one of my best friends and I love to be around him.
Things with other friends haven't been going as smoothly one might say. Apparently people say that I have changed...well I don't know why that is such a bad thing. Isn't that what life is all about. People grow and change and learn new things, so that's what I ahve done. But I guess there are just those who can't deal with it. I say farewell to them witha caring heart. I don't have hard feelings and I have tried to keep my bridges from catching fire, because if I were to judge them for the things they have said, done or otherwise I would be forced to clasify myself as a hypocrite. If that were the case I would be the one not allowing change. I have come to terms with all that is happening.
I have always felt like the one who was unsure of my future, this doesn't refer to my distant future alone, but to my immidiate future. The questions that ask: what are you going to do next year, next week, what?...And I have always seemed to be the one without the answer. But something has changed, I feel like all of a sudden I am the one with the answers, and most of the rest have lost sight of what they wanted.
I decided to take this year off from school (a desicion not looked highly upon by many, but I KNOW that I WANT to go back to school...so I WILL!) and work to save money (I want to take as much slake off my mom for school as possible and I just bought a car -of my own-). I am finally taking charge of the things that I need to do for me and becoming an adult.
I give my best wishes to everyone and the things they do.
Sylvie leaves very soon and that is sometimes really hard to think about, I feel like I can hardly process the thought without breaking into a frustrated tear. However, I then take a look at the moments we have had and the time we have spent and I feel happy. And I know all the wonderful things that face Sylvie when she returns home and how happy she will be, and I am happy for her. I will miss her and I am going to have a hard time letting her go. But I will:) Sylvie I stand strong with the fact that you are my sister, my heart, and my soul.
We are going to Canada on Thursday-Saturday that should be fun!!! Yippee.
Signe you are beautiful and wonderful and I am glad that we are building again. I love you.
