I love how I say I’m going to update more often and I never do. I’m finally going to keep up with my blog this time around…I’ve just been sooo busy with helping to manage a business and then with my photography picking up but I’m no longer going to let that hold me back from blogging and finally answering questions. Honestly it felt really good to finally make my own background for this xD

Anyways, this is what has been happening:
-I am no longer working at Giant! Giant is a grocery store that I was at until March. In March I was hired at H&R Block which was a great opportunity for me. As I was working at H&R Block I was able to receive an amazing opportunity to become a shift manager.

-February 14th; Valentine’s Day I was hired as a shift manager.Honestly it has been a wonderful opportunity and I am still loving every minute of working as a shift manager minus not being able to do much with friends or family but it is worth it.

-My best friend is pregnant and I am going to be doing photo sessions of her and her pregnancy which is very exciting! I’m sooo ready for the little one to be born so I’m able to get new born pictures of her little one! Here are some pictures from her first session :D
She was unable to make a heart so her younger sister did it for her :D

unexpected picture but it came out beautifully :D

Sisterly love :D

Honestly everything has been going so well and I couldn’t be happier. Soon I will be blogging my opinions and questions that have been asked. Sorry I haven’t been able to do so, I’ve just been very busy.

Let me tell you this has been one heck of a year…I’m sooo ready for 2011 to come to a close which today is the last day of this year xD yay!

This month has been an a very bumpy month but not a horrible one :) Here is a bit of an update on what has taken place so far this month:

-Eric and I celebrated our two year anniversary which was nice.

-I put off my Christmas shopping til almost a week before Christmas, lesson learned to knock it out right after my birthday!

-Becca has been home in a cast due to her breaking a bone in her foot. Let me tell you, she was miserable.

-I’m still working at a grocery store and let me tell you it’s been very difficult due to many factors. Don’t get me wrong it’s not the worst job…I’m just happy that I have a job.

-I’ve had three photo sessions so far and they all went amazingly well :) Here are a few of my favorite pictures from them :D

The photography sessions have been going extremely well and I have many more photo sessions lined up. I’m so glad that I did get my camera because I’m doing very well with this. I’m super excited that this summer I have another wedding session.

Well I’m going to update a little later…I’m thinking about a New Years Resolution and I will post that up later ;]

0.o I can’t believe that I haven’t updated for a LONG while…a lot has been going on that has been keeping me busy such as work and school!

Updates:
-I’ve been extremely bust with school…let me tell you this semester is tough.
-I have a new job….I’ve been working at a grocery store. I’m working over 20 hours a week and have to deal with school
-I had my second knee surgery on September 21st and I have been doing much better thanks to this surgery.
-I’m finally following my dreams….I finally purchased a professional camera to do photography on the side of my other job…meaning that I’m going to make a more affordable photography shop :3
-I’m turning 21 this Friday…I can’t believe how fast the years have gone by!

Me and my new camera :3

I’m planning on blogging more often since this semester is coming to an end and I’ll have more time on my hands :3

To be completely honest I’m not like many people due to me being so completely different. Many people fear clowns, spiders, snakes, drowning, being eaten by a shark, etc; however, I’m afraid of something much deeper than all of that. My biggest fear is having people hold my knee against me….what I mean by this is that I don’t want people to think that I can’t do anything because sometimes my knee does pop out of place. The reason why it does this is because I hardly have any cartilage between my knee and my knee cap, this causes my knee cap to pop out of place…I admit that sometimes I am in pain but that is bound to happen! In time, I am going to have to get a knee replacement but for the time being I am doing exercises that will make my knee stronger and with my weight loss that is helping me from being in so much pain.

I admit that sometimes it’s a bit more difficult for me to do certain things but I am more than capable of doing anything that everyone else can do…sometimes I do have to take it a bit slower due to the possible pain but it is a part of my life that I have to get past.

What caused my knee problems:
I have always had weak ankles due to playing basketball, softball and volleyball when I was younger and I tended to sprain them a lot throughout the years. In time it caught up with me. One day in gym class in 8th grade I ended up popping my knee out of place and my knee swelled up horribly; however, that did not stop my basketball coach from making me practice that evening even though the school nurse told him that I shouldn’t. As the practice went on, I fell down three times on my knee and ended up unable to walk for a bit. After this happened my grandmother picked me up from the school to take me to the emergency room to find out that I had torn my meniscus; however that doctor was wrong. I found out recently that I hardly have any cartilage in my knee which makes my knee pop out of place.

What helps keep me positive:
I am very lucky to have such an amazing boyfriend, family and friends. Honestly I don’t know what I’d do without them….they have been great and have always been there for me.
-Eric: I am lucky to have this guy a part of my life. He is my best friend and the love of my life. Ever since I met him he has known about my knee injury and has NEVER once held it against me and has always been there for me when I’m in pain…he tends to sit things out such as amusement parks when I am starting to hurt…he really is great due to putting up with my knee.
-My grandparents: They have been here from the start of my knee problems and they have been great! After having to get surgery they helped me out to the best of their abilities and to this day they still help me with everything that I am unable to do.
-To ALL of my friends: They have always been there to help me out and cheer me up when I was in pain, they also always sat things out due to me at a point. I love them all to death.

Honestly a lot has happened since the last time I updated…a lot of negative things have occurred, however; it will NEVER change my positive outlook on life.

Events that have taken place:
-I am no longer working at Lowe’s. The reason why I’m no longer at Lowe’s is because I ended up being a seasonal employee and did not know this until two months into the job, it really disappointed me when I found this out since I applied as a part time cashier. Not only was I a seasonal employee but I ended up working almost everyday due to people calling off or not showing up. I believe that I was a very hard employee who did everything in their power to make sure that I’d get a part-time position once there were available openings. Sadly when the available openings did open up I was never hired because of college and my knee; those excuses made me feel like complete crap. Oh well, it was for the better.

-On August 6th I was involved in a car accident, to be perfectly honest I still don’t know what exactly caused the accident except that I did not hit the person in front of me and I was rear ended. It took almost two weeks for my car to be fixed, and luckily no one was hurt in the accident. I had minor damage to my car: the exhaust needed to be replaced and the bumper had to be replaced, however; luckily the guy we took my car to was able to fix the bumper and make it look good as new!

-On a better note, I was recently hired to work at GameStop. To be honest I’m super excited because I will be in my element since I know about games and gaming systems….not only that but I know what to expect there due to working at a movie rental place for my very first job. Many of my friends are jealous about me working there because they’ve been trying to get in there or they just wanted to work there in general.

-Eric and I have been together for a year and eight months which is very exciting for me, especially since we have yet to get into an argument and have been in this relationship straight through without taking any breaks.

-Today is my first day of classes and let me tell you I’m kinda nervous, I don’t know what it is but I always seem to get nervous for my first week of classes.

This weekend I’m super excited, I will be going to the Uproar Festival with my love, his sister and her boyfriend :3 This time around I’m planning on taking pictures of the concert.

I keep saying that I’m going to update more often, however, that never happens because I’m working a lot. I honestly have not had a day off to myself due to a lot of events that are taking place at work: people have been quitting, people have been calling off due to beautiful days outside, and one person is extremely ill….I’m pretty sure that this has happened to everyone at least once.

Here’s a little update on everything that has been going on:
-My love and I have made it to a year and six months together :3 let me tell you this is an amazing thing because we have been together almost everyday since we’ve been together and before we were together. He is a great guy :3

-I’ve been working a lot of hours since the semester of school has ended. I’m usually working about six days a week, sometimes even seven due to being called in a lot due to people calling off. My job is a bit hectic however I wouldn’t quit because it is a great job to have.

-I went to the movies for my one year and six month anniversary with my love :3 we saw Mr. Popper’s Penguins, it was such a great movie, I do advise people to go see it.

-My sister graduated on June 10th and I am very proud of her.

-My mother visited the weekend of my sister’s graduation and her visit was as horrible as we thought it was going to be. Her visit was actually very pleasant.

I do plan on blogging about my opinions on things that have been asked on my Formspring. I’m kind of tired of answering the same questions over and over again so I think it may be best just to post the questions and answers on here with a long blog on some of the questions. Please do not get offended if you do not see your question on here it may be answered on my formspring so keep on eye out on that :3

Also I am planning on going to the Uproar Festival once again this summer, the reason being is many amazing bands are going to be playing such as Avenged Sevenfold, Bullet for my Valentine, Seether, and many other amazing bands, I shall keep everyone posted once this occurs because there will be many pictures taken this time around :3

Finally, I have the chance to update this. Lately I have been extremely busy with school, work, family, friends and my love.

Update on What’s Happening:

-The job interview went well and I am now working once again. I absolutely love my job even though it is a lot of hard work. This job is going to make me a stronger person since I have to do a lot of lifting and what not.

-College Life: A lot has been going on this semester. My English Professor is very strict and what not. Lately I have been swamped with many papers. I recently handed in my Research paper which was on the Dangers and Hazards of Social Networking. Let me tell you, this paper has opened my eyes up and is making me be more careful with everything that I do online now. Also in school I have been doing very well grading wise, of course, I have to put a lot of work into this semester, but in the end it will be worth it all. I’m am glad that this semester is almost over then I will no longer have to take regular math courses and just accounting courses :D

-My grandmother recently was in the hospital to get her knee replaced. Let me tell you, she has been recovering well. Best part about this is, she will be able to do a lot more things that she wants to do without having any knee issues. My grandmother has been gone for a few weeks and everything is going well at home and with her in the hospital. Today she shall be coming home.

-On Saturday, my Pastor was put in the hospital due to a motorcycle accident. He is in critical condition still to this day, we are unsure if he is going to make it due to all the injuries that he has acquired due to this accident. I am very hopeful that he will recover and won’t suffer the long term injuries that may happen due to the accident.

-Apologies were made and they were accepted. This means that there is no unnecessary drama or stress that is going to take place. This makes me extremely happy due to the fact that I have other things to worry about such as my family, work and school.

-My love and I have just celebrated our One Year and Four Months Anniversary. It still amazes me at how long we have been together straight through without taking a break, fighting or even breaking up once. I usually have issues with keeping a relationship straight through, however, this is completely different as everyone can tell. Eric is such an amazing guy, and honestly I am blessed to have been able to have this chance with him. He is such a sweetheart and is absolutely amazing in every aspect. I do realize that there will come a day where we will have a disagreement, however, we won’t allow it to come between us because we have such a strong bond.

-I got a new cellphone called the HTC Inspire. Let me tell you, I absolutely love this phone compared to the iPhone. When the iPhone came out, everyone just had to have it and I ended up getting it a year later and ended up having sooo many problems with it. HTC phones seem to be doing a lot better than the iPhone these days, I hope to see more HTC phones being improved because they are more affordable than the iPhone.

Obviously there is much more that is happening within my life, however, I don’t think it is important to post everything that is happening in it because I’m sure not everyone wants to hear about it. Soon I will be able to post up quotes and my view on things. Not only will I be using this to post my views of things but I will be finally working on my youtube account to post videos. Obviously, the videos aren’t going to be as great as me blogging about everything but it will be a fun experience for me. I hope that I am able to blog a bit more often since this semester is coming to an end, and summer vacation is right around the corner. Take care<3

0.o Whoa, a lot has happened since the last time I blogged. I might as well blog since I have plenty of time to do so now.

What has happened:
-I was bitten by a spider on my left wrist. Let me tell you the pain was horrible, I actually was to the point that I wanted my arm taken off. I have been bitten by a spider before but this had to be the worse. Most likely due to the location. Not only was I bitten but I was having major side affects from this bite: swelling, my arm was starting to turn purple, horrible pain, fevers, and body aches. On top of being bitten by a spider I ended up having a major sinus infection that was causing me horrible migraines. After going to the doctors for the spider bite and sinus infection, I ended up losing my voice…horrible, horrible two weeks.

-Midterms have taken place for two of the four classes. I ended up getting an 82, on my one midterm, and I am waiting for the results of my one midterm.

-On my first English paper I received a 95 on it, which was very shocking since this professor is a very tough one. I am now awaiting the results of my second paper.

-I recently left my job due to many reasons. Main reason was that I wasn’t getting hours and they were cutting back on people’s hours. They pretty much called me in when they needed someone so I left.

-I had a job interview yesterday and it went well. The day of the interview I had to take a drug test, which of course I’m going to pass since I have never touched a drug in my life. I am pretty sure I’m going to get the job since the two people who interviewed me really liked me and asked me to change certain things on my application, so I can get more hours. I just have to wait for the phone call.

-Tomorrow will be my anniversary with my love; we will be together for a year and three months. I still get excited to this day the more and more time we are together.

-I’ve been playing a lot more video games since I have a bit of time on my hands. I couldn’t believe how many people who are 20 and up who still play Pokemon. I was at the game store and this woman randomly started talking to me and she said, “I can’t believe that my father loves to play this game, he is sixty years old.” I just laughed, especially knowing that I was there to purchase the newest Pokemon game. It’s nice to know that people my age and up are still playing the Pokemon games xD

World Wide NEWS:
-Japan has suffered a major earthquake. It is the largest quake that has ever been encountered. The earthquake was an 8.9. Not only was Japan hit with this horrible quake but it suffered a ferocious tsunami that wiped out many villages and towns of Japan. Many cities of Japan are suffering due to power outages, and no water. This is very devastating news. This has taken place on March 11,2011. Many people have lost loved ones due to all of this. I am praying for the people of Japan. Not only am I praying for the people of Japan but I am praying for their future; that they will be able to fix everything to be able to live a normal life.

Well I’m going to update as soon as I am able to do so.

0.o whoa a lot has happened since I last updated. I am sorry for the lack of updates, I have been extremely busy with school. Lately college seems to be taking up my life. Here is a bunch of short little updates:

-Well tomorrow is Valentine’s Day as we all know. Well due to not wanting my love to lose work hours I decided to celebrate Valentine’s Day yesterday. I ended up making my love one of his favorite meals. It was very successful, I am proud of myself. I made home made mac and cheese the way his mother and grandmother make it. They make is differently than many people and I was able to succeed without a recipe xD I also made my famous tandy cake. My grandmother thinks I am a natural at cooking.

-My love got me a beautiful cross necklace with a dove in the middle of the cross. It is a beautiful necklace.

-I found out that I love cooking. Last Saturday I decided to make breakfast for my sister, my love and myself. I made bacon, dippy eggs and biscuits. Ever since then I decided that I am going to cook a bit more xD

-Once again I am being harassed by the person who I have not talked to for almost a year. Oh well, let her keep trying to get at me because she won’t succeed. I just wish she’d leave my friends and family alone.

-I have been busy with a lot of class work, this semester is seriously stressful. I really wish that it would die down but it is probably going to be the worst semester of college ever. I am always doing homework and hours of it. Oh well, once this semester over it’s summer time and time to relax and work :D

-Today my great-grandmother Doris has passed away, very depressing but death is a part of life.

Eh, kinda not in the best of mood to update, I shall update this weekend :D

Alright so on January 12th, I made the decision that it was best to cut my hair! The reasons why I had to do it:
-My hair wasn’t growing but 1/2 an inch every two months.
-There was a lot of damage due to bleaching it to be able to stay in school. I was going to get kicked out of my school because my hair color apparently wasn’t natural. I am a light auburn with a tad of blonde in it. Whatever, I made the mistake of bleaching it because I wanted to be a full blonde.
-I wanted to get a perm for my graduation and it lasted a few days after getting it.
-My hair was breaking a lot.

As you can see there was A LOT of damage to begin with. It was such a pain to deal with. My grandmother asked me if I considered cutting my hair and I have but I NEVER imagined myself with short hair. My grandmother and I was out and about and we looked at a hair book and found a possible style that would suit me and we agreed that this was the best look. The first thing I did was ask the hair stylist and she said it was best. I asked the others who were there and they all agreed, they all have dealt with my hair at least once and agreed that the hair style I picked out would be best. Let me tell you I was a NERVOUS wreck before hand. Luckily everyone was right, it really does suit me. Also I am hoping that my hair will grow back faster than it was and eventually have the hair I really want, if it doesn’t grow back I’m going to stick with this hair style since everyone loves it. I like it for the most part but I miss my LONG hair before all the damage happened! Oh well, life is about taking risks and doing things differently. It’s a good way to start the New Year xD

Sooo far Twenty-Eleven has been a good year. I will soon be with my love for a year and one month, this is seriously exciting for me since it is my longest relationship straight through without a break, or a breakup. Let me tell you he is perfect in every way possible. I know we will one day have a little argument but in the end we are going to stay together. 

Also there is NO drama in my life since I have dropped the problem starter! Of course once in a while she does try coming into my life such as trying to get my cellphone number, tries adding me on Facebook to message me, asks me questions on my formspring, tries getting my friends who associate with her to get me to add her, etc. Let me tell you this girl has major issues. I just don’t understand why she keeps going when I don’t bother responding back to her…oh well, whatever, she has NOTHING better to do and it’s obvious.

My second semester of college will be starting this Monday. I’m looking forward to it, yet I’m not. I spent $545 on books that we probably won’t use. Well we will be using the math book obviously but probably NOT the other books. Oh well I’m not complaining since I had a book voucher which covered the costs of my books. I really hope that I do well this semester like I did the last one :3

I will be attending the Avenged Sevenfold, Stone Sour and Hollywood Undead concert on the 20th. I’m looking forward to it, especially since I know that Avenged Sevenfold puts on such an amazing show thanks to going to the Uproar Festival. I’m looking into the up coming one since I enjoyed myself last year :3I do plan on taking pictures this show since I am going to take my camera this time around. The only reason why I didn’t take my camera to the last show was because my love and I thought it would be best to leave it behind incase something bad happened.

There really hasn’t been much snow which I am very thankful for. However we did have a horrible snow night that I had to work but they sent me home early. I absolutely love my new car due to being able to drive safely in snow.

I’ll update probably after the first week of classes, and after the concert :3
