It's That Time of the Year

Want to get away?

When I look at this picture, all I can think is how beautiful it is. Wow. Wish I had taken it.

This is my new obsession. It's a really good show. The characters are great and the story lines intriguing. I love Netflix; the watch instantly feature rocks.

Crazy Hair Day

I hung out with these little people for a week at VBS. I miss them this week. I don't know if I miss the crazy hair though.

Netflix

Netflix is pretty awesome. They are adding a lot of movies and TV shows to the instant play option. So I've been getting into News Radio, which is hilarious. And right now I have a Buffy episode playing while I blog. As I said before, Netflix is awesome.

Home Sweet Home

I've been at Walt Disney World for the past week. But I'm home now. It's nice to be home. I'm going to post my thoughts on WDW and some pictures soon. I had a lot of fun, but it's nice to sleep in my own room and bed.

Interesting

Mark Driscoll is a pastor at Mars Hill Church and is interesting. Megan heard a sermon where Driscoll tells the guys to be men and take initiative; go up to the girls and say hello. I've been looking for that sermon. While I don't think I've found it yet, this sermon is interesting. http://www.marshillchurch.org/media/religionsaves/dating

Death of Laptop

MacBook Pro

My laptop died. It was sad, but not unexpected. It lasted me longer than I thought it would and it's been on its last leg for awhile.

Instead of investing in a new laptop, I'm using a Mac that isn't being used in my family. I'm learning that Macs are cool, but also that I don't know how to use them. So it can be a bit frustrating. But I'm grateful that I have a good computer to use without having to buy one.

I've been lazy and haven't posted anything in awhile. So I decided I needed to rip off the band-aid. Now, what to post on, hmm....

Well, I've had a few successes recently. I finished my externship that I thought would kill me, I finished my master's degree and I parallel parked on my own on the first try. I'm most proud of the last accomplishment. :) Maybe that isn't true, but I don't have any pictures of me regarding any of the other successes.

Next on my list of things to do is find a job. And I'm off to do so!

Monday

I had jury duty, went to class and went searching for receipts and info for my taxes. It's no wonder I have a headache and I'm tired. The end.

Making Peace

"At a certain part in your life, probably when too much of it has gone by, you will open your eyes and see yourself for who you are. Especially for everything that made you so different from all the awful normals. And you will say to yourself, 'But I am this person.' And in that statement, that correction, there will be a kind of love."

Sick

I haven't felt right for the past 2 1/2 weeks. I've had a swollen throat and a cough. Then yesterday I woke up with a sore throat and not much of a voice and later in the day developed a fever. So I spent yesterday in bed and that is where you'll find me today. It doesn't seem like this sore throat is turning into a cold. I just want to get over this sickness. Blah.

Flickr and God

I'm doing a 365 project on Flickr this year. I just looked over the pictures I've taken so far and I find it interesting how they remind me of the past days. In a way, this is a diary through pictures. I can see how some days have been tough and others fun. But in the end God will get me through this year. It will be interesting to look at the pictures as a whole throughout the year and see God's work. No matter where I go this year or end up God will be there.

Frustration

Day Fourteen: January 14, 2010
Originally uploaded by mrbosslady

This is how I feel. Frustrated, over it, tired. I don't like drama and I do what I can to avoid it. Unfortunately, there are people in my life who don't share that goal. So on top of everything that is stressing me out with work and other stuff, I've been dealing with overly sensitive people who do not think about others before they respond to situations. I really don't need this. I want everyone out there to remember that situations are not only about you and perhaps the other person is going through stuff that you don't know about. Thank you.

Big Bang Theory rules,

How I Met Your Mother rocks,

I love Monday nights!

Hello!

I am still here. Update: I quit my job and start at the DA's office on Wednesday. It's a volunteer position and I don't know when I will next receive a paycheck. But I'm okay with that. I'm excited to work for the DA and that get to see if this is what I want to do on a regular basis. On the 1st I started a 365 project on Flickr, which has been fun. I like having to take a picture every day and hope by the end of the year I am a better photographer. I got my haircut short and it's cute; my mom wasn't thrilled and kept pouting that she missed my hair. I think that's all I have to report now. Happy January and 2010.
