Living a Journey

Fan Mail

2012-02-12T23:03:00.000-08:00

If you haven't figured it out I am a huge fan of all things ADELE!!

This Queen lives on! After winning every category nominated in tonight's Grammy's, she has showed those so called singers- Katy Perry, Bruno Mars, Niki Minaj, Rihanna, Lady Gaga and so on, who actually has the Pure to Heart TALENT!!!

Yes, ill admit I love groovin to rihanna and Lady Gaga's hits, but Adele will always have my heart.

My opinions of the Grammys.... Bruno Mars performance- very vintage, Taylor Swift- you are the age that is on that guitar you played 13! sorry not a fan, Katy Perry- you tried to put on a good show with the fake you and being in a cage thing; didnt work out and Niki- seriously? I thought your performance was going to kick butt, but all I was thinking was am I going to hell from watching this?

It was an entertaining night.

OH and GO BON IVER!!!

What's your opinions of the show??

PANAMA

2012-02-08T18:03:00.000-08:00

This post is dedicated to an AMAZING band with the most humble, friendly, down to earth people I know.

This is PANAMA!

(Click to Listen here! )

Did you Listen? Did your head start to bop? Did your body start to grove?

If you liked what you heard, don't be hesitant "like" them on Facebook!

Im sure you readers have a fast food chain, coffee, a quote, or a celebrity that is "liked" by you.

This "like" would actually be used wisely.

21st

2012-02-07T11:26:00.001-08:00

Alright, so I think you as well as I know, thats it's almost been a month since my last post. I've been busy lately and honestly forgot about blogging. I know traitor.

Let's catch up... So January -boring month.

February...

This past weekend I was in Vegas with my family celebrating my 21st BDAY!!!! When the clock hi midnight Sat. Feb 4th 2012 I was in an Irish Pub (which seemed like the real thing) with a pint of Bulmers listening to a band sing, "Little Lion Man." It was perfection. Of course the lead up to the moment of being legal, was annoying and a bust (everyone is drunk, you are sober-annoying) However, once I could order my own alcohol and didn't have to watch for cops, a weight was lifted off my shoulders and I was free!

After sleeping 6 hours it was time to party. I secured my crown on top of my head, took some gambling chips with me, and bought a huge slushy rum drink. At night I crossed one subject off my bucket list... attend a Drag Show!!

Yup DRAGS the Queens! It was absolutely amazing, and very professional! At the end of the night, I found myself again in the Irish pub where I met two brothers from Derry, Ireland which one of them presently lives 15 min away from me :) Yup! we gonna chill.

Anyways thats the news from these past weeks.

Norway

2012-01-12T23:33:00.000-08:00

UPDATE: Norway was Beautiful in the winter!!

It was awkward seeing my boyfriend after 4 months, we talked everyday, and once I opened the door he suddenly seemed as though he was another person. However, it didn't take long for me to fall for him and become a little giddy, giggly highschool girl.

Now back in AZ, Tucson, starting another semester again; still too far behind the Professional Business Program application, but already knowing what the juniors are learning now.

I turn the BIG 21 in 3 weeks. I imagined this celebration differently then how it actually is going to be. I imagined myself having many friends 21 and older all road-tripping to Vegas, living in a hotel room together, and enjoying the clubs, bars and drinks.

In reality I will be in Vegas with four 50yr old women.

I guess thats what I get for only being close with people younger than I, or those who live out of the state and country.

WTH. I've already lived my '21st B-day' almost every night out in Dublin!

Will NEVER forget that year.

Airports

2011-12-14T14:48:00.000-08:00

Ode to Airports...
Your an awkward place, where many people gather
No one acts like themselves, almost everyone tries to be seen as "normal"
Stampede of people, followed by those weird golf-cart cars, and wheelchairs running over who ever crosses their path.
Airports are the PERFECT place to people watch.
and Im done. wasn't really an Ode.

I LOVE people watching, its always entertaining, especially in airports One bad thing about airports well two, its always frezzzing and you have to travel a mile to find an outlet- hence the cord :)

Well the gate Im sitting in is verrrry entertaining at this moment, the people are flying to Kuwait,

and Ive learned a new word! woohoo Gete/jete/jhete idk how to spell but I know how to say!

Everrrrday Im learning!

one hour I will board and fly to Frankfurt Germany; then off to Norway!!!!

2011-12-13T01:56:00.000-08:00

I cant believe after 4 months I'm finally going to see my Viking!!!

1 day before I board a plane; first stop in one of my fav countries, Germany then off to Norway.
3 days until I can have my first snowball fight with the BF. Yeah sad thing, I have to stay in Bergen, Norway one night until I can see him in person, oh business Seminar how I loath you!

Now let's get to the whole Finals, torture week, infamous post...

2011-12-02T00:31:00.001-08:00

First off, hope yall Americans had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Always love seeing and being with family and best friends!

Noooowww, what to write about? Black friday Experience? Oh that was a JOKE!

How I havent laughed so much in the past 4 months then I did during thanksgiving break?

or how I have one more week of school then BAMB in 12 days leaving for NORWAY!!!???????????!!!!!!????!!!!??!!!! kinda excited.

It's finals time, and yes Stressin to the Maxxxxx. This weekend is being devoted to a Business Showcase Project, 8 page English paper over a video I Never watched ( thanks wifi for not streaming) and studying for my MIS and Spanish Finals. Honesty CANT WAIT till Dec 9th when I walk out of my final at 8pm and drive home to Gilbert.

Anyways, here is Just something to share which I found amusing, thought it would make this post more entertaining.

Before I die...

2011-11-17T09:51:00.001-08:00

"Before I Die is an interactive public art project that transforms neglected spaces into constructive places where we can discover the hopes and aspirations of the people around us."

Im absolutely in LOVE with this idea Candy Chang had! Found this wonderful project while I was stumbling, and again as I said before, I FELL IN LOVE!!

Before I die I want to... build one of these walls in every place (city, state, and country) I travel to.

Let's start with My college campus! Already found the wall for my mural on the building of Museum of Art, go figure; all I need is to receive approval and a team.

Inspirational

2011-11-16T18:19:00.001-08:00

This song was much needed for today and really for this past semester.

So inspirational is it not?

Readers, trust me if your crossed about life in general, relationships, deciding on a Major, Deciding were to go for college,deciding where to work, or Just thinking about studying abroad.

GO FOR IT!

Dont let your dreams, get away from you! If your thinking about study abroad; the fact your considering it- means you want to go for it. Deciding on a major? just live life normally, and the idea will hit you, explore different subjects you find interesting. Deciding on where to go for college? I can tell you Ive transfered twice and might be transferring for my third time. What you decide can be changed, dont live unhappy. Sorry, but if your thinking about ending a relationship- end it! Why else would you be thinking about it; as well as the idea of starting one.

Lastly, Deciding where to work after college? Pick a job you'll feel comfortable in, "where you belong." Same as choosing a college, work for a year or so, if you hate it change, explore different cities, and job descriptions, and always apply to other companies if unhappy. Sometimes the job you feel isn't going to entertain you, turns out to have a great business atmosphere.

As Hercules says " I will go most anywhere, to feel like I belong"

I hope you all feel the sensation Hercules sings about having in your life. I have already experienced the feeling at 20 yrs young, and Im truly grateful.

Thanks Disney!

OHHH and just realized today, I am actually done with school 4 days earlier then I thought.

To figure this out, is truly an experience of pure happiness!

Now tryin, and hoping, I can change my flight to go to Norway 3 days earlier than I planned.

Wish I could have the luckiest night and be only charged $100 to change, better yet ~~$20~~ FREE!!

Wouldn't that be AMAZEBALLS??!!

Getting Close...

2011-11-15T19:48:00.001-08:00

To my trip to NORWAY!!! SOOOO FLIPPIN, DIPPIN,PIMPIN EXICTED!!!!!!!

Yesterday the countdown was 30 days, now today 29. Weird how 30 sounds so much larger then 29.

I remember when I started the countdown at 108 days and now its almost 28.

Although, sadly I can only stay 10days Im still enthusiastic about finally seeing my Boyfriend after 4 Long months. I know I shouldn't be complaining, many people have to be apart for 2 years until they can see each other again, but I dont care, these past months have SUCKED A.

Once December comes I dont think I will be able to sleep, anxiety over finals an anticipation of seeing Øye.

Explicit Post

2011-11-14T19:09:00.001-08:00

Ever heard of this show?

"I didnt know I was prego"

Im guessing most of you have. If you havent the title says it all, women who had no idea they were prego. Well this show has literally scarred me for Life! Yup. Im not going to get too personal or anything, or start writing about explicit situations and opinions that might make people feel a bit exposed and awkward; I just want to say, this show is supposed to be educational and informal, and yet for me its a horror ~~movie~~ series.

Sad part is, I have only watched one episode. One episode has given me sever paranoia.

I know a baby is a treasure life brings to you, but I aint ready for NO treasure until im 30 maybe 35. Way to immature at this point in my life.

Gah just deciding which vid to post for my example is given me anxiety, paranoia, and butterflies in my stomach.

"I love seeing Lady Gaga’s boobs and bum. I love seeing Katy Perry’s boobs and bum. Love it. But that’s not what my music is about. I don’t make music for eyes, I make music for ears."- Adele

Honestly, Who doesn't LOVE adele? Who?

It's always a difficult one knowing I have to sit in the car and drive 2 hrs to go back to Tucson. Thanks Adele for making that drive more bearable.

and now back to life, back to reality.

2011-11-08T18:32:00.000-08:00

A lot has happened since my last post.

Two fillings were placed in my mouth. ( I had an elvis lip afterwards)
I had to have 2 yes 2 shots!!
Summer is officially over in AZ woohoo (AZ summer: April-Nov.)
bought a networking cable and now my internet is AMAZING!
Really Creepy:I also followed a guy around school from Africa, I really liked his accent. No I never met him before, I had an hour to waist so I followed him for a bit. YES i am a creeper.

Why are these points really important in my life, umm because they are the most exciting events in my past week. yup.

First off, I HATE shots, I despise them with a passion. The idea of a needle poking me, makes me tear up. Let, me set the scenery for you; It was 7am at the dentist office, the assistant calls my name ( dad stays outside in the lobby to wait) As I sit my terrified caboose down, I start to feel cold, thinking "its just a shot, maybe they will give me some laughing gas? ah no its going to be a shot ahh..." While she hands me the paper work to sign, I procrastinate as long as I possibly can, for her to ask if I understand and have any questions. While I hand her back my certificate of pain, the jolly, humble dentist sits in his thrown and says, "Great way to start a weekend two fillings, am I right." I glare at him, with disappointment and regret. The moment he says the words," alright we will numb you up and get you out of this office as soon as possible." I say with my vibrato voice, "Is there going to be a shot?" Dentist: "Yes, hopefully just one." I then start to tear up to a waterfall ( ha coldplay) and say, " I know I'm 20, but can you get my dad?" Yes I balled like a baby, and held my fathers hand for comfort. After the ~~shot~~ Shots the procedure wasnt bad at all; however, now I have to do the same thing over again the 18th with 3 shots. uhhhhh not looking forward to it.

For numero 4 Yes my internet succckkkeedd AAAA for as long as I could handle it. I was furious with the internet, I decided to nicely complain about the situation in a friendly matter. Well I did complain, but in the complete opposite way as I described. I think I scared the worker. Well long story short, i bought a cable and now instead of taking 15 min to open a webpage it takes 5 sec woohoo.

Finally, me being a stalker, I dont know what to say, I was bored and his accent was amazing. Judge all you want.

"Music is my delight" if you know where that quote is from...YOUR AWESOME!!

You know the feeling of finding that one song you just Have to play on repeat because its just that amazing?

Well I defiantly found my weekly fix. I've been listening to this song this whole week anytime Im around my ipod or MAC; I Cant get enough!

Music is truly a masterpiece when it can connect to the listener in an emotional way.

THANK YOU Coldplay, You never Fail!

We all have our Ups and DOWNS, and if you've been reading my blog lately you know I've been in a Down funk all, humm, these past 3 months. So what do you do when you find yourself in this predicament?

7 easy steps...

You say to yourself "I am pathetic" and really down yourself to the ground
CRY! cry like your a baby again, cry for your mommy/daddy/ anyone, just cry until your eyes sting
Take a looooong nap.
Wake up and realize you cant change some situations. Sometimes things just simply, dont work out, or at least not the way you planned.
Fulfill your guilty pleasure. Your SWEET pleasure, it is halloween time.
While eating or making your delicious treat sing "I get knocked down, but I get up again, nothings ever gonna keep me down..."
Relax and become fat :)

And voila you smile more than you did before.

I'll be making this tonight yummmy, heres the Recipe

2011-10-28T17:31:00.000-07:00

Why is it so hard to make friends in college(aka: TUCSON U of A), especially when your a transfer student? I don't understand this... everyone has been in my situation as being the new kid, why doesn't anyone have compassion. Nowadays people are only frineds with one another if they can get something in return; popularity, boys, money, drugs, alcohol, or even good grades. Is there really no one out here in Tucson,AZ that's just friendly and welcoming?

I MISS DUBLIN!

47 days until Im out of here!!♥

White Christmas

2011-10-26T22:03:00.000-07:00

"Im dreaming of a White Christmas..." and I am gonna get it! Woohoo

Just officially bought my plane ticket to Norway!!!

48 days and I will be spending my first christmas away from my family ( sad I know) but with My Øne and Ønly♥in another country!

Ello culture shock Galore.

I cant even Explain how EXCITED I am!!!!

Norway in the Summer

These are my Confessions...

2011-10-19T20:52:00.000-07:00

So I really like this photo.

Nevertheless, I found some inspiration from another blog.

Here are my Confessions.

I am currently trying to loose weight. Im eating small meals and its one of the Hardest things for me to do. I either eat smaller portions and Im too tired to exercise, or I exercise and eat huge meals uhh Darn you delicious Food.

I can't stand shallow, insecure, hypocritical people. The ones who say they are Never going to do something and they do whatever 'it' is in less than an hour. The ones who are fake and try to be friends with people not because they value the relationship, but the fact the other person is 'cooler'.

I still use the British form of english when writing papers. behavior(USA) Behaviour(Ireland/England)

Money and Society are always the Problem.

I want to be engaged in 3-5yrs (hoping) :)

I am Addicted to coffee!!!!

I CANT wait for these next 55days to be over because, I can Not wait to feel the sensation of falling in Love all over again. Also I really want to see the northern lights, and go dog sledding ha

Take me back to DUBLIN

2011-10-17T21:41:00.000-07:00

SERIOUSLY TAKE ME BACK!!!!!!!!!!!

Im so, completely, desperately, over this AZ life.

This song doesn't help.

I listen to this and all I want to do is put on my heels ( ha actually my brown boy shoes) and hit the club and DANCE alllllllll night. I seriously see myself dancing in Fitz, D2, Kitchen, our apartments, even down the streets listening to this/ singing this, being with friends, drinking, and having the best of times.

I want to feel the feeling I used to feel every night in Dublin, I want to be happy and at home.

Dull

2011-10-12T23:29:00.000-07:00

well, really, I have nothing to blog about. Honestly, my life is so dull all I can write about is its dullness; and that's dull.

Yeah you can say I miss my Dublin Life.

Home

2011-10-06T23:18:00.000-07:00

I am absolutely in love with this video. If you haven't ever heard the song "HOME" well your going to hear it today; like NOW.

Anyways, 68 days left. 8 days until we are Half way.

Yup HALF way, then 2 more, long, aggravating, and torturous months.

Please oh please, have me find something to do, in order to keep my mind off the countdown. I really need theses days to go by faster! Any ideas?

comments here or fb will be much appreciated.

Music Saves My Life

2011-10-04T00:53:00.000-07:00

Have you ever experienced maybe shuffling your ipod, or turning on the radio in your car, to hear a song that brings back memories??

Well tonight was the night; many beyond many memories were making me turn my frown upside down at the thought of what fun I've had in my life.

First, it was Little Lion Man- Mumford and Sons

second, Dare you to Move- Vitamin String Quartet

and finally, Burn it to the ground- Nickelback

singing our hearts out

Random 3 right? I know. But each one made me smile and flashback to those particular moments that made me feel at home.

"LLM"- Dublin at the end of the year party singing and dancing with the best man Francis

"Dare..."- Dublin, first semester. This song just always lifts my spirits.

and finally "Burn"- strange enough this song takes me back to sitting in the back of a race-car with øyestin, holding his hand, driving through the mountains and windy roads of Norway.

Honestly, MUSIC SAVES MY LIFE! It's a fact!

Toga

2011-10-02T17:37:00.000-07:00

Saturday was amazing want to know why? Becaussssseeee I finally was reunited with some of the BEST people here in AZ. It was great, I went to my friend Jimbobway's house for a toga party with all dancers. I seriously felt at home, and all I wanted to do was DANCE!!! dang i miss it.

My life might be taking a positive spin, however only in this category.

Fall

2011-09-30T02:35:00.000-07:00

Today is the first day of Fall, and what will be the high temperature for Tucson, AZ?

97º & Phoenix- 102º.<---- this is not normal!

If it was, well then summer would be the ultimate longest season ~300 days a year according to AZ .

Fall in Ireland

second photo: an old school house next to the lake.

Anyways to say the least, I cant wait for the weather to cool down. Especially for these reasons...

WARM coffee
boots/cardigans/HUGE sweaters, jeans ( and nothing really needs to match)
Feeling warm and cozy in bed, and not like Im stepping out of a sauna
NOT having to shave my legs every other day :) if your a girl, im sure you would agree to this.
SCARFS -I love scarfs
sitting by a fireplace
being able to play in the rain/snow
being able to sit in my car without 3rd degree burns from the seat/ steering wheel

I love the COLD, now if only I could be with Øystein , then I would add cuddling to the list (cheeeeeesssssyyyy) but seriously I would. 75 days ♥

not relying on another or others for aid or support

lonely: lone·ly

The answer: YES she can!

Another dinner tonight alone in my room, blogging, fbing, and completing hw. Maybe a movie later?

"no invites, just assumptions of independence in the air, which is a false accusation."

College Drivers

2011-09-20T16:19:00.000-07:00

Honestly, you cant trust any driver who lives in Tucson, AZ, especially dumb college kids. Why is this a post for today, well I almost was run over and became roadkill. YUP the F***ing Dumbass kid didnt see ANYONE crossing the street ( I wasnt the only one.) Luckily and I do MEAN, THANK THE LORD luckily, neither I or the other 2 students were hit.

Let me describe you the incident. Walking across the crosswalk on one of the major busiest streets, known as Speedway Blvd. 3pm. Im walking looking around at my surroundings, actually making sure there is NO car, when bam I look to my left and theres a green CRV speeding to make a left turn, 3 feet away from me. I freeze, Dumbass swerves, no one dies, and I Yell PUTAIN (french) with the middle finger showing all its glory.

Very thankful for my life!!

2011-09-19T23:42:00.000-07:00

I have really bad dark circles under my eyes, and I have for many years. During the summer they disappear, but once school is in session, there is no way to get rid of them. They're obviously due to poor diet, stress, and lack of sleep- which summarizes school life.

Anyways I try to use these "Can make your dark and puffy eyes disappear" products, and I always forget I have the cream, oil, gel crap under my eyes.

To say the least, my eyes sting. I've got to stop rubbing my eyes when im tired, or at least not wear the product!

not relevant: i miss being legal!

2011-09-17T12:55:00.000-07:00

Its OKTOBERFEST in Germany, and where am I, sadly in America! Scheiße

If you dont know what this festival is about, well let me educate you with a one worded answer: BEER

This festival has been celebrated since the 1800's when King Ludwig married his Queen, and ever since then, the party has brought many people from around the world.

There are beer tents, pretzels,bratwurst, Dirndls and lederhosen! What could be better??

This festival is on my Bucket list! I love Germany, have friends their- to share my experience with, and Ive always wanted to wear a Dirndl!!

Oktoberfest 2012: September 22- Oct 7 I AM GOING!!! I MUST! screw midterms, im gonna party the way my ancestors did.

Natural Beauty

2011-09-16T23:12:00.000-07:00

Gorgeous.

I might have the opportunity to see this natural wonder this winter, and share the amazing moment with mi amor. What can be better? peaceful love.

7 months

2011-09-14T19:43:00.000-07:00

Well we made it to 7 months!! Thats more than a 1/2 a year, thats more than any relationship ive been in, (this is actually the only relationship ive been in) and guess what its as close as you can get to PERFECTION!!!

WARNING: the next paragraphs( well really Looong sentences) might be offensive to some people.Its just me babbling about something I feel very strongly about.

Im am proud to say after 7 months of dating, I am not married (yet) or raising any babies!!!! Yes I love him, love him enough to say out loud if he did propose, I would accept in a heartbeat; however I do believe we need some years. I really find it incredibly amazing how many people I know date for 4 months, marry and are my age already raising a child??!!!!!!¡¡¡¡¡ We are only in our early 20's, we have our whole life to be raising a kid.

I honestly dont care when I get married, as long as I and my husband are happy (After college would be preferred) and I AINT RAISIN NO BABIES until Ive been happily married or some years, financially settled, and have a confident stay-put job. GIRLS: Its called condoms and birth control!

I feel as if I am still a child, and from what I know now to what ill know in 10 years, will have a dramatic difference. So Sorry if I offended any of you reading this, its your life and you should live how you want to live, but your dream is my nightmare!

anyways like I said I am very happy right now in my life to have Oye be apart of it. He is the BEST boyfriend anyone could have, he puts up with my crazy stressed out moments, and when I just act like an alien freak. I LOVE you and im psyched to see where our relationship goes from here. Cheers to many years to come!♥

COLL-EGE

2011-09-13T18:06:00.000-07:00

You know when you were a kid ( well most of us still are) ok I mean remember when you were 14, oh the awkward year, anyways my point; remember watching movies of college kids and truly thinking that must be what college is like? the people in the movies would be so poor, they would eat Mac & Cheese for every meal, parties were constantly disrupting their 'right decisions,' and they would have to study and do homework throughout the entire night???

Well its my reality. Dinner tonight: Mac & cheese ( poor) I live in the biggest party complex in Tucson, and I have a HUGE MAJOR INTENSE MIS honors project due on Thurs. no all-nighters tonight, but it will be a looooong one.

Heck my roommate even told me people you would never expect, would pay other people to do their work for them ( sound familiar-movies) --- Dont worry im going to do my own work!

Well phone far away, Logging off FB, Skype and very soon Blogger. wish me luck.

BHP!!!

P&P

2011-09-11T14:34:00.000-07:00

Ahh Another glorious day planned on watching Pride & Prejudice! I don't understand how most people I know hate and despise this movie? I dont get it, its sooo beautiful! the people, the background landscapes, music, and the time period, its allll sooo BEAUTIFUL! seriously my wedding is going to be inspired by this movie /book. Heck I might even have my ceremony in Darcy's Home, Oh god that be amazing!!!!!

Gotta get down...

2011-09-11T01:14:00.000-07:00

...On Friday!

Well friday I stayed in Tucson for the first time during a weekend, with roomies and mi cuzz; an I had a blast! It's true, sake bombs do bring people together. ahh the first night of partying since Dublin, Oh how I missed it soo.

(sorry for the blurr)

Just to brag: I tore up the dance floor ( only one dancing) I had all eyes on me, and I was turning heads.

Note

2011-09-09T11:37:00.000-07:00

Note to self...

Even though your closet consists of a double mirror door, when dancing in front of it, Dont dance full out! Your not in a studio, your in your bedroom; there is a TV, a wall, and a bed frame also in the picture. There goes another toe severely brusied/ popped out of place/ Broken. My medical diagnosis Broken!

Well at least it wasn't my arm again. FACEPALM followed with an 'ow'.

A year ago...

2011-09-08T20:35:00.000-07:00

A year ago on this particular day, I boarded a plane heading to Chicago and then to Dublin,Ireland.
A year ago I was scared of what I was getting myself into.
A year ago I had to prepare to actually learn and remember how to get from A to B without navigation.
A year ago I had to learn military time.
A year ago I made the BEST decision I have ever had to make in my life.
A year ago I arrived in Dublin,Ireland, for where I met the best friends anyone could possibly have; decided exactly what I wanted to do for my career; went to a bar legally; drank; met the best boyfriend I could possibly ever ask for- but didn't realize it at that time ( just thought he was, "that kid with the name I cant pronounce;") travelled to see one of the top wonders of the world; Partied hard! and well again Lived a whole another life than what I have compared to now.

Studying in Dublin, Ireland changed me, I know for sure I dont want to live in america, and well to put it short and sweet i matured; which is something I cant believe happened.

I MISS DUBLIN, Erasmus, my friends, my school, my apartment complex!! i MISS EVERYTHING!! I miss how alive dublin was at night, I miss meeting people from around the world, I miss feeling safe even walking home at 2am, I miss how small our classes were, I miss hearing french outside my window and in my apartment, i miss hearing spanish and trying to figure and remember words here and there, i miss our school cafe, i miss the relationship between students and teachers, I MISS EVERYTHING

miles from where you are

2011-09-07T22:10:00.000-07:00

2011-09-02T02:21:00.000-07:00

Perfect song.

Melancholy

2011-08-31T21:57:00.000-07:00

Im feeling a bit better actually, Im starting to feel like Im not some dust particle floating in the wind (EMMOOO) of course this feeling didnt come till 9 hrs after my crying moment. I have so much sadness from our situation, when I just need to Suck it up and take it like a Man! Yes 4 months is torture, but there literally is nothing we can do. The idea still hurts, but im trying as hard as I can to make it better; starting...now. Actually procrastination takes a part, sooo in reality starting in 30min. Actually probably the morning. Im a realist trying to become my old optimistic self.

" I love you and forever more.

Especially when your standing by my front door

Yes our situation is hard at times

But you keep me from committing any crimes

I am filled with Joy when I gaze at you

Thank God for skype, I dont know what I would do

Your my one & only

who keeps me from feeling lonely

And that is why I gave my heart to you."

108 days

2011-08-27T12:43:00.000-07:00

Yup the countdown has begun!!

SD

2011-08-26T00:54:00.000-07:00

Let's Go Back!

I LOVE...

2011-08-24T20:29:00.000-07:00

I love him obviously

but I also love that I'm driving home this weekend to get away from this Tucson life.

I love how during my one hour break I decided to go to Starbucks and delightfully enjoyed a heartwarming carmel macchiato in the bookstore.

I also love how when, I was walking out, Adele starts to play over the radio. You would think as much as I listen to her it wouldnt matter if her voice was playing, well it does. Adele seriously is my therapist. So yes I stopped walking and stood listening to her beautiful voice while singing in my head ( hopefully just in my head) .

3 years

2011-08-23T17:36:00.000-07:00

YUP 3 more years of school, hopefully 2 more. Just being in school for 2 days, I've realized I need to work UBER hard!! Especiallyo ona Spanisho excuse me espanol. Need to be fluent when I graduate, very scared of that. Rosetta Stone might be purchased here very very very soon.Like my mom said "Don't worry about the bitches and assholes, focus on your education and get the Hell out of AZ." ha LOVE HER!

miss him. 4 months uhhh SUCK.

First Day

2011-08-22T18:53:00.000-07:00

Today was my first day attending a class on campus at U of A and what can I tell you about it? That I made alot of friends? That Im super stoked for this semester? That im already stressed? NONE of the above! I can tell you being in Tucson, living here for only 2 nights and the first day of school, makes me MISS Dublin sooo much more than I already had. I miss the people, the small classes, the surrounding area, I MISS everything!!!! I miss the relaxed behavior, I miss not having typical americans around me, aka: high maintenance sluts and douchebags( sorry but its true) I miss having the bf two floors down. I MISS EVERYTHING!!!!!

Everyone keeps telling me to be positive and its only in the beginning, But I have never felt this alone in my life! ( sorry for the depressive post) It's true, I always seemed positive but I have NO good feeling whatsoever. Who knows maybe in a month Ill have a big group of great friends like in Dublin. Or maybe I still be in the same position as I am now.

I wanna go back!!

Packed but NOT ready to go

2011-08-18T17:37:00.000-07:00

It's almost time for me to get back to reality; to actually attend a school in America. Uuhhh SOOOO not looking forward to this. 3 more years; Please let it go by fast!!!

Many people are excited to start a new journey and go off to a university, making new friends an experiencing life like a rebel. Well I agree, I love starting new journeys however, I am NOT quite fond of the place I'll be studying at U of A in Arizona which is in America ( Yuck). I sometimes think I shouldn't have studied abroad, my expectations have been set to a NEW level and all I crave is an adventure out of USA.

Of course Im Extremely happy I did live in Dublin for a year, I met the person who makes me smile and blush everyday. I would never wish for that to have not occurred. He is the Best thing that has happened to me.♥

GUESS WHAT??!!! The Boyfraaand arrived in AZ the same day I got back from the midwest! I only had to wait 1 month ( a difficult month).

The past 3 weeks have been AMAZING!

Its true the heart grows fonder and becomes (a little bit) stronger in a relationship like ours. Now that he's gone, I just start counting down the days until I can see him again, and I absolutely can NOT wait!

October break: NORWAY

2011-06-24T09:32:00.000-07:00

Ello blog, yes I am still alive; however I have fallen, fallen for someone who maybe the one. I know super cheezzzyyy. A Great relationship in a screwed up situation (5000 miles/8000km away.) A Long Distance relationship for sure, but he's a keeper. Whoever invented Skype, THANK YOU!

“In true love the smallest distance is too great, and the greatest distance can be bridged.”

Madre

2011-05-07T15:20:00.000-07:00

Well this post is dedicated to My MAMA yup Madre!! Ello it's Mothers Day today! woohoo

Even being an ocean away this amazing woman still seems to help me when I just wanna cry "I want my mommy."

As crazy as she is, She always calms me down, and makes me forget about anything negative and always focuses on the positive. She makes me laugh, encourages me, and is always there for me to talk to about anything!

I LOVE MADRE!!!

Blog renovation

2011-03-29T13:36:00.000-07:00

It's almost been a full semester since my last post and I've experienced many life acquaintances, relationships, and decisions.

What's New in my life, which is worth writing about?....My AMAZING Boyfriend!!! Gotta 'Kinda' love this kid.

Norwegian. Name: OYE ( cant pronounce his real name: pathetic) Sweet. Surfer/diver/snowboarder. a best-friend. easy-going. makes me feel at home.

Already planning on visiting and meeting his friends and family in Norway!

Other than that, this semester has been, well it went like a bolt of lightning, fast!

Going to hopefully, study abroad another year in Barcelona, Spain next year, where I will be visiting Norway multiple times throughout the year.

-Dont ever want to loose him." psshhh thats a secret.

interesante

2011-01-24T13:12:00.000-08:00

Since when is it a terrible thing to have many friends? I can understand the loudness being a problem, but really being social? thats a joke. Oh Dublin 2011 its quite...interesante.

Oh well gotta be a Positive Polly it has only been 2 weeks, and I still have the B's and the boys who Love me.

I LOVE this dude right huurr.....

He is My and only my TWIN!! can you see the similarities?

How can I describe us? humm outgoing, open, and Loyal!

Jan (Yawn) is my twin because... we can discuss anything! nothing is awkward between us. Ive learned sooo much from this kid, 'baking,' and the birds and the bees.

Twinners has been by my side through many of my emotions and problems that I have encountered. He has never tried to run away, even with his 300 pairs of shoes. He is my grasshopper and I his master. We are each others therapy.

I absolutely LOVE you Twin!

Hope to visit you in Munich soon! it will be an Epic trip down in the Home country.

Grown

2010-12-29T20:51:00.000-08:00

I have grown so much since the last post ive had. I have seen who people really are and have realized who really care for me. Last time, I said I was done, you still confuse me, but why cant I get you out of my head? Same for you with me. Im happy with this, whatever it is? What is it really? What are we? Where we gonna go from here? For me to be done and feel completely over you, and then for that one look made me change, made all the feelings I thought were gone, just erupt again. You have surprised me! to Not say goodbye, but to say, I'll see you later, makes me even more confused than I have ever been.

GUESS WHAT...Im going BACK to DUBLIN!!!!! Yes another semester another 4 months being in Europe. Sadly all my Germans and french had to go back home, but those countries are only 2hr flights away, and im already planning.

Cant wait to see you again twin.

Done.

2010-11-20T13:42:00.000-08:00

Im done playing games with you. You are too immature and have messed with my head and heart too much these past 2 weeks and im done! "Should've known you'd bring me heartache

Almost lovers always do."

"You have to Forgive to Forget, and Forget to Feel again."

im done. I may have fallen hard, but guess what i can easily pick myslef up. I've got friends who love me in 5 different countries and they will always be there for me. So have fun playing these games, you will be the only player, whether you realize it or not.

LAR

2010-11-16T19:35:00.000-08:00

Ive never felt this way before, which frustrates me! Its times like these for which Im thankful I have these Girls by my side. LOVE you Biiaaatccchess!!! "Thelma and Louis"

Now I just need to talk/ Cry to my Best Friend. Miss you soo much.

(taken from This&That)

but I can't break through it all.

It's a heartbreak...

I don't care if we don't sleep at all tonight

Let's just fix this whole thing now

I swear to God we're gonna get it right

If you lay your weapon down

Red wine and ambien

You're talking shit again, it's heartbreak warfare

Good to know it's all a game

Disappointment has a name, it's heartbreak warfare."

Back to escuela

2010-11-09T12:23:00.000-08:00

Vacation was BOMB!

this is what I did during my vacation...

I went to Malahide

did a little bit of rock climbing

Celebrated my West Coast Dirty Hippie's 21st B-day

And joined a band. Well they joined me. our most popular song..."Barbara Striesand"

Vaca

2010-10-30T06:14:00.000-07:00

Its vacation for us right now; one week off from escuela. And you ask where am I going during this break... Barcelona? No. London? Narr. Germany? Nine. France? nope. Im staying here in Dublin, since im stupid and never bought a ticket early enough to go travel. Already bored. Merrr.

time for Skype Galore...

recap

2010-10-26T13:19:00.000-07:00

"Blessed is this life and im going to celebrate being alive"

So far since the last post, this has all happened...

My mother and her Bestie visited.

This Guy Colin ( one of my 5 bros) has become my hero.

this kid has somehow introduced himself into my life

This Spaniard Carlos has become my Big Brother! I love him!

Ive partied with my German Gurls!

oh and how awkward this was I find it hilarious: I was asked to go on a date with a 34 year old. Apparently he didnt realize im still a teenager, well for 3 months, even then 14yrs difference.

Paintball

2010-10-16T06:29:00.000-07:00

I went paint balling yesterday. one word...Ouch! thats the only way how to explain it.

Ive also realized the song "Just havent met you yet" is Perfect! ive always liked it, but never actually listened to the lyrics. Wow just Perfection.

"I'm Not Surprised
Not Everything Lasts
Have Broken My Heart So Many Times,
I Stopped Keepin Track.
Talk Myself In
I Talk Myself Out
I Get All Worked Up
Then I Let Myself Down.
Tried So Very Hard Not To Lose It
I Came Up With A Million Excuses
I Thought I Thought Of Every Possibility...

I Might Have To Wait
I'll Never Give Up
I Guess It's Half Time
And The Other Half's Luck
Wherever You Are
Whenever It's Right
You Come Out Of Nowhere And Into My Life"

Honesty

2010-10-13T16:16:00.000-07:00

"Honesty is the best quality."

Everyone has heard that quote before, but honestly, do you believe its the best quality?

I sure do. Maybe not the BEST of the Best, but its up there all right. The only way to make your point across is to be honest and brave; most of the time. You can be a coward and still be honest. Honesty has brought me to where I stand in my life at this moment.

to be honest... "I like you."

confused

2010-10-09T09:20:00.000-07:00

Im confused. surprise surprise. However, what im confused about is a little difficult to describe. Im not confused about Ireland or the courses im taking, but im confused about the aspect of communication. Why is it no matter where your from, everyone is the same. Everyone has the same way of thinking and communicating.

take that as you will.

anyways to quote "Strange and Beautiful" - Aqualung for which i found on Nat Uh Lee's blog.

Sometimes, the last thing you want comes in first,

Sometimes, the first thing you want never comes,

And I know, the waiting is all you can do,

Sometimes...

Music

2010-10-07T09:04:00.000-07:00

another reason Ireland is amazing, where ever you go there is always music playing. I found this dude when I was supposed to be writing a paper. He's muy bueno!

Kerry

2010-10-06T12:59:00.000-07:00

First let me start off with, This Blogging thing is going to be extrmely hard. I never realized how much free time I had in AZ. Here i wake up, go to dance, go straight to school, go home eat dinner, do homework, then go out with mi amigos. Its Crazzzy. But yes I still Love it!!

Anyways this past weekend we went to Kerry! BEAUTIFUL scenery but terrible tour. We were stuck with all these american kids who apparently thought we were obnoxious? ha never heard that before.

Sadly I lost my camera charger so I dont have my own pictures on my comp. but heres some swell pics from the friends.

CEA Dublin 2010!

I was the fat kid at the end of the race. the Last one up the hill.

I love Castles and to 'look' at the ocean!

Glendalough!

2010-09-24T18:21:00.000-07:00

Today I went to Glendalough with a Huge group of Kids from the independent college i attend! It was absolutely breathtaking! I LOVE the country-side especially the Irish countryside...heres pics.

Forgot

2010-09-19T06:40:00.000-07:00

I cant believe Ive forgot about blogging!? What is this?!!

Well good thing im sick and have time to sit around and blog at this moment.

First, I LOVVVEEE Ireland. Thats alot to say, to have only seen the city of Dublin, not the countryside.

( Dublin)

Second, I LOVE my Friends!! weve only been together for a week now, and it seems like weve all known eatch other for years!

(Lauren:NY Heather: Mass officially the diet coke gurls of Ireland)

Third, Im learning French! je m'appelle ashley, comment vas tu ? OH lala. Yes I Have a French roommate who i now adore. and because of her i now have maybe ehh 20 french friends. yes im now considered french!

(Roomies!)

DUBLIN

2010-09-10T18:49:00.000-07:00

ello Im now moved into my apartment in Dublin City, Ireland!! It's almost 3 am here and only about 7pm in AZ. I hate time difference; Makes life sooooo much more difficult! uh anyways yeah, it doesnt seem like im living in another country; honestly, it seems as if Im in Brooklyn, New York.

I havent slept since tuesday night. ok well 3 hours total, but in my book thats nothing! so 3 hours out of 72 hours. I think thats the correct calculation?! I wouldnt know with only 3 hours of sleep. all in all its was all worth it.

I still havent seen all of the city yet, just the ghetto area. I love the people im here studying abroad with, and our other roommates from France! very sweet.

anyways yeah im tired. goodbye.

familia

2010-09-08T00:20:00.000-07:00

Tonight, was my official last night at TDA. Yes, I will be back to take classes here and there, when not in school, but sadly this was my last night as a full time TDA student. sad night.

Anyways I FREAKIN LOVE each ONE of my fellow TDA dancers/TDA family!

just wanted to blog that information.

Pride

2010-09-06T01:27:00.000-07:00

"Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously. A person may be proud without being vain. Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what we would have others think of us."

So do you consider Pride a Fault or a Virtue?

Pride & Prejudice

MY LOVE!!!!!

2010-09-02T01:08:00.000-07:00

The word Countdown. What enters your brain?

For me the song tilted Countdown by Phoenix. "Countdown unless your juvenile" good song. Of course the other more obivious thought that enters my mind is, How many days do I have until I leave? Wellll when I countdown my way; looking at a ye old calendar and crossing off the days, I have 8 days left. Although, I do trust my way, just being a curious college student, I traveled through the www and searched countdown clock on Bing.com. According to the e-countdown clock i have 7 days.

conclusion: I like the electronic way muuuuch better!!

One Week Yall!!!!

This past saturday was spent with some of TDA's Best.

I realized I have another sister. We actually look like each other. It's quite amusing. (especially with our hair in buns)

My sister and I discovered we were naturally born DJ's. You can make your own opinion, but I say we were the shizzz.

Oh yeah I talked to my Best friend in NYC!! Glad he is living the life in an empire state of mind! ha Confessions on the dance floor?

Sad night.

I recently visited some friends and my cousin in Tucson, at U of A to be exact. This little trip made me think why didnt I decide to attend UA?

I visited the one and only Jimbobway!! Met all his friends and stayed at his apartment. This made me so completely enthusiastic about Dublin. I will be living in an Apartment and cant wait!!! How are we going to decorate?

Every time I go down to U of A I actually do like it. I like the campus, and the people. Sooo why didnt I decide to attend? I mean it is in AZ but, I could transfer out of state after Ive graduated. The only thing to complain about is the weather, and well Ive lived with this heat for 19years already.

I really dont know why I didnt just go to UofA! gahh life would be sooo much easier.

Now I have to make up my mind. another semester abroad or at CGCC? Then after; U of A, college of Charleston, or NYU ( I wish)???

Ehhh College why do you have to be so difficult?!

Hi. I want to do something life changing. Yes thats right Life changing. I've always wanted too. somehow I want to help someone in need!

Maybe ill do a mission. humm.

Well today I helped someone... yup i received my first pair of TOMS. Woohoo LOVE THEM!!

Next, Charity Water. <----- check it out.

Sad to think about one billion people in the world are not supplied with clean water, some barley any water at all; and yet Here in the USA we waste water as though its nothing. Think about how many water parks we have in the country, and how many thousands of gallons are used each day to keep all those mermaids happy. ( i will admit it, I love water parks )

IDEA: all water parks should take some of the money they earn, and donate it to all the people who need water soooo they can survive.

I finally went to sprinkles just to see what all the fuss was about. Why haven't i discovered these heavenly sweets before?! I took one bite of my Lemon coconut cupcake and fell in love. You know that feeling when you eat something soooo amazing, you slouch in your chair, exhale, and savor that taste in your pallet as log as you can? yeah thats how good they are. You turn into a mouse and take the tinniest bites, so you can make that cupcake last more than 30 sec. Finally when your done, you feel overwhelmed with depression. so sad.

Imagine that the universe is a great spinning engine. You want to stay near the core of the thing - right in the hub of the wheel - not out at the edges where all the wild whirling takes place, where you can get frayed and crazy. The hub of calmness - that's your heart. That's where God lives within you. So stop looking for answers in the world. Just keep coming back to that center and you'll always find peace. "

— Elizabeth Gilbert (Eat, Pray, Love)

Can't wait to see this movie!! I might read the book. sounds very inspiring.
