Chillin with no makeup on

Thats when im the prettiest. Lol. Testing my camera on my xyboard tablet. Had to give back the ipad2 i had as a 8 month loan from work.

I've always wondered

About who actually reads this blog. I know my ex fiancé has read a few excerpts and my boyfriend knows of this blog.... But has never mentioned a thing about it. I'll say it's because I'm a passionate Scorpio, that had my boyfriends at any time had a blog... I would have been reading that every day. I just want to know everything about them. I have however managed to let go of the "digging" for things that aren't there. It's something that my friend Ricky Amaya once told me; " when someone says bye, that's all it means. Nothing more, nothing less". Which leads me to no longer divulging everything that I feel or am going through on a blog. I used to. Even if I had to write it in Spanish...(circa 2007) just to let it out there... I did. I also don't sketch anymore. I have a brand new sketch pad with unused and in sharpened pencils. Can I blame it on life being good? Well maybe. It's sweet. Life right now is something that I would not have pictured happening to me for the longest time. Stable, healthy and loving relationship with a man that has been nothing I've ever known before but has given me every single thing to love about him? We are night and day in tastes and interests. I'm the social butterfly that enjoys a night out and he's the homebody that dislikes beings around anyone besides me and his brothers or immediate family. How do we make that work? I still don't know. It just does. I owe it to myself to give this my all. So I do. What I'm lacking is in giving myself more of me. Like this. Like sketching. Like love.

Yah

So I'm doing this new thing. I'm trying to keep minimal. I'm trying to live on only using mascara, blush and coloring in my eyebrows. What? Yah. This humid south Texas heat is killin it. I put away any foundation, powder, eye shadow and eyeliner. I've never been big on makeup. I went makeup less until I was about 25. Then I was all about my makeup and looks for a minute. Mainly when I got here. Kinda noticed that 80% of all females here are about their looks... Anyway, I'm trying this natural thing for now. Wish me luck. Maybe get back into running? We shall see.

Like a brand new day!

I'm back! " this ain't a movie dawgs!"

It's Almost here

I Love this show

aaarrrggg

Do notice that my last posts are titled with much emotion! It took me to make a blog for school to get me to come back and update my blogs! Geez. So yeah, I gave school a shot. This is now my second term. And boy am I questioning whether I will continue to stop. Verizon is prepaying my courses, thats like $1300 each class since it's all online schooling...and If I don't succeed with at least getting a C in class, Verizon will charge me the money back! Yikes! I have a 3.8 GPA as of now, so no worries,but the motivation is not the same! I chose substance abuse counseling...and I'm towards the end of my intro to psych class and it's all about neuroscience...and I'm taken back by all the terminology! Anyway, what keeps me going is a) I want to also have a degree that I can hang on the wall of my mom's house that accompanies my sister's and my brother's. b) How am I going to teach my kids that advanced education is good if I can't be proof of it? c) Martin, he asked me to go back to school because he knows I'm a genius, a lazy genius. d) I really like learning about substance abuse. You know, I have more than enough first hand experience in what it does..but I want to know why it does and why we do. Yeah. If all goes on course, I will be done by 2015 with a bachelors....I am planning on getting pregnant at the very end of 2013...which means that time line might not work in my favor. I really don't think I want to experience my first pregnancy with the stress of taking classes, writing papers and taking quizes. On top of making quotas and making sure I'm hitting at least over a $1000 on commissions every month. I rely on that money to pay for my half of the mortgage and my car payment. Car payment will be done by November of 2014. Now do you see why I can't get knocked up until the end of '13? Duh, I can't just afford it yet. haha. Martin and I have bills. We make too much money to not qualify for assistance, unlike every other woman or teenage girl in South Texas that uses their lone star card to purchase junk food at the convenience store. Hard work equals no help :) Lesson learned. Have I updated that Martin and I are now home owners? And land owners???? Yeeeeeaaah!!!! At the end of March we closed on an awesome house on 9 acres out in the country, not too far from city life. Just what we always wanted. Because of that house is why I have not been able to fly to Arizona to visit my fam since yesterday. All the savings went to the house..and I'm just grateful to be here :) By the way, we have been working on making this place into a mini stronghold in the event of a zombie apocolypse. That is just a given. Nite.
