Mi 1/2 Bday (>'.')>=O____l_*__O=<('.'<)

Happy 1/2 birthday to ME!!!
<('.'<) (>'.')>
Soooooo, it is 6 months until mi 25th birthday, in which I will be a 1/4th of a century old...Crazy!!! How times flies when you don't know what is going on! (,_,) Life is creating and destroying paths to reach the ultimate end. Finding happiness, bliss, sadness, anger, and every emotion along the way. If the majority of your travels in life is "Happy" then I guess you lived a good life. I have a wonderful family who even though we have our problems I love them very much, I have an awesome boyfriend that is across the Atlantic ocean, but who is loved a lot more than the miles that are separating us, and I have really good friends. Some I truly know that they are a part of mi family and I wouldn't be me if it weren't for those friends. I love everyone in mi life. Some disappoint me more than others, while others make me sincerely appreciate them. I don't know what life is going to have in store for me when it is mi birthday, but I hope within these 6 months before I will create and destroy paths, so when I reach mi ultimate end...I can say, "I lived a happy life. I am thankful for all the people who loved me and I know that they know I LOVE THEM TOO!!!"

Happy Birthday, Mi Cam!

Saturday, October 11, was Mi Cam's Birthday!
Happiness Reigns Supreme!!!

It was a busy day trying to get stuff ready for her party and getting the house cleaned to mommy standards. Ahhhhh!!!! I mowed the lawn, dug out a bush, baked sugar cookies (cut, baked, frosted, decorated), finished Cam's present, made puppy chow/food (aka Muddy Buddies), cleaned, etc.

Cam's festivities for her birthday was a PJ party @ 10 P.M. I got to her apartment around 8 P.M., in which I drove there! Ahhhh. Kansas City roads SUCK!!!, but I got there! Banzai. I got there early just incase she needed any help, etc, but it seemed she had it all under control! I really didn't know that many people @ the party, but it was all GOOD! The majority of everyone was dressed in his/her PJs, which was nice because that was the point! Everyone seemed to have a wonderful time. I think Cam enjoyed herself too. I always enjoy myself as long as my friends are having a good time!

Stuck in the MUD!!

How do I say this...???? mmmmm......mmmmmm????
Have you ever wanted something and not sure what it is? Have you ever known what you want, but then not quite sure how to get it? Or feel like everyone is on his/her path in his/her life, while you are stuck in the mud just left behind?
I am not quite sure what I should do in my life or what paths are ahead of me (even if there are any)!!! Maybe there is a special path that is waiting for me and I just have to stand in the mud until it appears, but keep my eyes open or it might disappear!!!

"Do something you want/like to do!," everyone tells me, but what is that? I have NO IDEA!! I want a job that I love waking up in the morning to go to, I make a decent income (that I can support my family and afford things with ease, not worrying about "the budget"), enjoy working, come home at a decent time (so I can spend time with family etc.), etc. I know this is probably what everyone wants in one's life, but the question is how to get it? I want a nice job and I don't want to go back to school even though a Master's Degree makes be look smart!!! hee hee!!! Unless, that nice job pays for me to go to school, in which I would say yes!! A really nice school!!! I don't want to pay $70,000+ just to get a degree that I am not sure I want to do. I know I should be looking around finding what I like etc., but the things I like is traveling to different countries and languages! I am not comfortable with depending my whole job on my language abilities. I don't want a job that is free lance and that is what interpreters do. I want to travel to foreign countries, wear business suits, feel important, converse with the natives in their language, be looked at as a professional who is interested in the country I am visiting other than an English teacher.

I guess the future has a lot in store for me. Hopefully more than a can of worms to go with my mud!!! ^_^

Back Home Again!

It has been a looooong time, since I wrote on this, but I figured it never toooo late and it's my blog...so there!!!
What have I been doing since my last post...mmmm...I went to England to see mi Bubba! It was soooo nice. I can't express how wonderful the experience of going to England and Ireland was or spending time with mi boyfriend I haven't seen in a year. I was only there for a little more than 3 weeks, in which I learned it wasn't enough time. There are sooo many stories I could share with whomever is reading this, but unfortunately I am going to keep them between me and mi Bubba! I will just show some pictures.

Tower Bridge ^_^ London

@ Blarney Castle ^_^ Ireland

Edinburgh Castle ^_^ Scotland

I have been home trying to figure out what I want to do with my life and the only thing that I actually get accomplished is cleaning and baking! Here is what I have baked soooo far. I actually baked more, but haven't taken a picture of those. These desserts are all healthy (btw!)
