update.

So we have had a refreshing and fun couple weeks. Mike had "spring break" and we hung out at home for the most part. We hung out with our friends too. Throughout the school year Mike has met some quality people at school. Really good people. Anyways, I have met and hung out with Pia, one of Mike's schoolmate's wife. She has been awesome to hang out with and hope to continue. I really feel like we(Mike and I) finally have connection with the outside world and by that I mean, outside of our apartment. I actually have friends now. We had a "girls night" when all the guys were at school last saturday, Jackie, Pia and I went downtown and hung out at Jackies place. It's really good to finally hang out with other people. Not only that, we all have SO MUCH in common. We all have dogs, we all love cars, our guys all go to Wyotech, we're all close in age, our personalities are pretty chill, outgoing, and fun. Needless to say, I really feel grateful for meeting the people we have met and have become good friends with. These are the kind of people who will go the extra mile for each other. We all have each other's back so to speak. Anyways, here are some pics of this weekend. We had a BBQ at Kevin's house and I met yet another chic named Kate she seemed really cool. Kevin has 3 rottweilers(sp?) Lola, Buffy, and Willow, kind of scary but really cool dogs. We don't dare introduce our pups to those girls. HA. Anyways, so our friends are...Kevin, the skinny dude with the shorts and tattoos(Kevin's girlfriend, Jackie, is in Vegas for the weekend), Greg and Pia, Briggs (in the red head) and Kate.

The only downfall is that now that we have a network of friends, it's making me less motivated to do school, cause I just want to hang out. Anyways, still trying my hardest.

a few pics.

Hey, just wanted to share a few photos, nothing too extraordinary, but pics nonetheless...

So we finally got a "grown-up" bed and we are both enjoying not sleeping on a single mattress on the floor anymore. (GHETTO) and speaking of ghetto...that "head board" in the picture is actually our old mattress covered with fabric...ha. we had no where else to put it and didn't want to get rid of it. :) design on a dime yo. Thank you 2008 tax returns!





This is a tree that is blooming, the picture was taken in February, but just now uploaded it...anyways, it's pretty right now in this area, with most everything blooming!

Plans.

So for a while now we have had a few plans.

Plan A- Win HGTV's Dream Home in Sonoma, CA. Win the SUV that comes along. Sell the home for about 1.8 million, trade in the SUV for a Lexus. Pay off all of our student loans and buy a decent home in the 300,000's or so. And give some money to the parents that have spent so much on us through the years. Live happily ever after and doing the things we love.

Well Plan A fell through. Some joker in FL stole our Plan A. So onto Plan B.

Plan B- Continue renting and watching our money disappear. Have so many student loans that it gets my stomach upset just thinking about it. Continue to drive a 97 Pontiac. Having the desire to buy a home, but knowing that it is in the very distant future. Live a life full of ups and downs, not knowing what is going to happen. Doing things that we need to do just to get by, not necessarily loving what we're doing.

So I don't mean to be pessimistic...it just can be kind of disheartening not knowing the future and only dreaming of the future with "present" eyes.

deeper.

it's almost 5 am.


Be Here Now
Ray LaMontagne


Don't let your mind get weary and confused
Your will be still, don't try
Don't let your heart get heavy child
Inside you there's a strength that lies

Don't let your soul get lonely child
It's only time, it will go by
Don't look for love in faces, places
It's in you, that's where you'll find kindness

Be here now, here now
Be here now, here now

Don't lose your faith in me
And I will try not to lose faith in you
Don't put your trust in walls
'Cause walls will only crush you when they fall

Be here now, here now
Be here now, here now
