Mother's Day

Well we had a great mother's day! Being the only female in my family that has not had a child I kinda feel left out, except my birthday is on Tuesday so I still got some attention. I think that after today I realized how much I really love my grandmothers, they both are simply amazing. I wish I could do more for/with them. Good thing Grandma Shirley really likes BM considering that we are now dating! Yeah thats right BM finally kissed me and well the rest is history.

Speaking of dating BM, its been amazing. He is being so sweet, which is a complete change from the past few jerks I have dated. I must say it will be hard to continue dating a meteorologist while I am looking for meteorology/hydrology jobs, which do not happen to be in the Des Moines area. Oh well I plan on taking the grad school path which will take me out of state eventually, and if we are together then and want to continue, great. If not, whats new? Most guys do not like long distance relationships, or at least that has been my issue with most of these jerks I have dated. As of right now BM and I are taking it one day at a time, and it is so nice to finally be with someone like that. Thanks babe, you are a doll!

It's been awhile...

So its been awhile since my last blog, wow not much has happened! I like my job at Brodkey's but I feel that I need a job in the science industry or I may drift even farther away from my dream of grad school. I am not going to lie, I want a civilian job with the navy in Cali. Its listed but there are so many others that are way more qualified then me. Why is the economy so shitty? Why can't I work with super hot sailors? haha Wow, my sorority sisters would be laughing right now. Oh well, graduate school has been my dream for ages. Why should I give up now?

I spent the day with Ro and T trying to get stuff done for CelebrAsian. We didn't get too far but at least it wont take too long. We even went to bug BM today at work! He is such a good sport. We absolutely love teasing him about possibly auctioning him off!

I miss living on my own and my sister has been pushing my buttons like no other lately. I seriously wanted to kill her this morning (not really but she was getting on my last nerves). I know I could live on my own again but I wouldn't be able to save any money for grad school. I seriously cannot live with her much longer!!! BM and I have talked about sharing an apartment or rental house, but I dunno people will think that we are dating for real. Like I told T, I am not objected to dating him but I just don't think it would be a good idea. He is way to awesome and I turn nice guys into assholes somehow and I can't do that!

Excitement!

I start my new job with Brodkey's Jewelers tomorrow morning and I couldn't be happier! Even though its not a hydrology job, I am very very excited. I feel this is something I could really enjoy and that's what I need right now.

Another exciting thing going on, Ro and I are going to the NKOTB concert tomorrow evening. We remember the days when NKOTB where the "thing" but we are going mainly to see the JabbaWockeez!! I love watching them perform, they are soo good! I wish I could break dance like them.

Oh and I took my good friend BM some dinner tonight, bc he has been at work since 4:30am and hadn't eaten anything except a slice of birthday cookie cake around noon. I am pretty sure that everyone at work was giving him crap when I left. Thats not a new concept that we face, a lot of people think we are dating.... he is just my friend. I guess it is kinda a weird relationship; I made him take bachata dance classes with me, I make him go out/join me to salsa nights, I made sure he had a birthday cake for his b-day, and I gave him a ticket to the BDSS show that was intended to my now-ex-boyfriend. I guess I could see where they get it, but I will make sure that no one else will question, BM and I are not dating, we are just really good friends. Besides everyone knows I only date jerks and @$$holes and the fact I should probably take a break after the last one.

A normal life will go on

I had a fabulous weekend with my friends in Ames! Thanks guys, I need that.

Yesterday, I accomplished a lot and took a nice like 10 mile bike ride. I can't wait until I am in shape enough to take a 20 or more mile bike ride. Oh well baby steps eh? I also had a lot of fun at bachata dance class. BM is doing so great, and I am super proud of him. He is like the best partner ever, and he is super excited about learning it too. You go BM keep it up!

I am getting excited for this weekend, a good friend of mine is coming on to the main land from HI for a visit. It should be a great time, I haven't seen him in over a year. Oh and we are going out Thursday and that happens to be BM's birthday, so we are gonna make sure he has a good time!

I miss my Ro, and its really getting to me that she can't be on the same side of town. I know that she had to move but its really taking a tole on me. Oh well we do see each other still just not as often as we would like. Sometimes you just need your best friend!

YAY, public blog!!

Ok so my other blog was criticized as being to personal, even though I kept it private. I still feel I should have some sort of public blog even though who wants to read it? Oh well you never know eh?

Currently, the job search has been - for lack of a better word - lame. Though good news is I had a great interview the other day and they invited me back on Tuesday! YAY! I know its not exactly a science job but I think I would really enjoy it for now. Besides, I may change my mind about grad school (I hope not because that has been my dream since the 7th grade -> loser!) or at least the discipline I pursue.

I have a big spot in my heart to all my friends that were there for me last night and dealt with crap that wasn't easy to deal with. Though I am tired of hearing, oh hun you are so pretty. Yeah like that really matters, whatever happened to you are so smart or you are so nice. I hope I didn't put to big of a damper on the evening and I promise I will be ready to go out tonight to support DJ Big Boi!! Though I am not loving the $10 cover! I have to say I love u Ro, thanks for trying to brighten my day even when you had a pretty craptastic one yourself.

Tomorrow I get to head up to Ames for a performance at the Global Gala in the Great Hall 7pm (free and there will be food there). I have a solo, and I am pretty psyched about it. I am also psyched to see Maggie, Katie, Kristie, Laurie, and Megan because I need them right now and damn I miss living near them. Hopefully we don't get too hammered because I have practice at noon on Sunday and I learned my lesson with depression and alcohol and how they really don't mix. Oh and I hope Maggie doesn't make a ton for breakfast again, I don't have the stomach for it since I haven't been eating much lately, but for some reason pancakes sound so good right now.
