My last day.

Today is my last day in California. The whole day felt really strange; me knowing that today is my last day here is somewhat unsettling. I have not slept well, along with not eating much because I am pretty stressed. Not at the fact of the actual move, its at the fact that I will be on my own for now on.

"Having confidence in yourself is the key to success" I've heard that from countless people. Ranging from family members, strangers and friends. Right now I have a huge amount of self-confidence, I am proud of myself for taking this first step into the rest of my life. Granted its an absolutely huge step forward, its a step none-the-less.

When I get there, I am pretty sure that things will work out. Right now it's a game of "wait and see".

Well, to all of the people who read this. Wish me luck, because I am going to need it.

Progress!

Here is my progress as of late.
  • Put in my transfer for the Radioshack up in Washington
  • Gathered some boxes for packing and shipping
  • Got my Jeep running! YAY!
  • In progress of installing new gauge cluster
  • In progress of saving money
There are 13 days left until I move, I just hope that the move goes smoothly. When I get there initially, Ill be living in a glorified Astro-van motor home. Hey, I am not complaining. Its still a roof over my head, and it's still a place to call "Home". To tell you the truth, I am extremely nervous at this whole thing. I feel the butterflies flutter in my stomach as I type about it. There are just so many things that we have to do on our own now, it's going to take some getting used to. The good thing is though, the family that I'll be living with I get along with them extremely well. So I highly doubt that there will be compatibility issues between them and I.

As I sit here, I can't help but think of the possibilities that my mate and I will have together. Yes, I know. There are going to be times that we are going to get on each others bad side, but what relationship is absolutely perfect? Not a single one. There are still things that we need to learn about each other. Basically I just have to get used to sleeping with another person in my bed. It's still a whole new experience for me.

Another thing that I am going to miss out on is building up my AR-15 rifle. A while back my father bought a few frames for himself, my brother and I. They both have built up their's but I have yet to complete mine. Time and money constraints prevent me from completing mine. It would just be a moot point to complete mine at this time. Currently there is no way to ship it up to me so I can't take it with me when I move, so he will have to drive up there and deliver it to me personally when he drives my Jeep up there.

That about does it for this post, I need to take a shower and such. So goodnight all.

Round three of "damn its been a long time"

Here goes round three of "Damn its been a long time!"

Well, it has been a long time since I have last posted in my blog. Honestly, I actually forgot I had one until a friend stumbled upon it. There has been some major changes since I have last posted on here. For one, my boyfriend had to move out due to compatibility issues with my own kin. Second, I am moving up to Washington state to live with my mate's family. Third, I got Jeep running finally! *Does a round of appaluse for himself* It is a somewhat moot point though since I am not going to drive the Jeep up there. Gas alone would be over 400$! Then you have to account in insurance, maintence, and various other things that need to be fixed on the thing. So I just saved myself the trouble and bought a plane ticket for 140$. Fear not though! I am not giving up on my vehicle! I've fought long and hard for that thing and I don't plan on giving up on it anytime soon.


Overall though, I have been doing fairly good. I'm doing alright at Radioshack, albeit from almost strangling a few customers from pure frustration. It's been doing pretty good. What I have planned is that I am going to transfer up to the store in Washington close to my future locale, and theres a plus too. It's a mall store. Mall+store+me= More money for me, hopefully. I may only be able to get a part time job there but still, hey it's a job.

I must bid all my readers goodbye for now because the rather nasty cut on my thumb has started to sting from all of the sweat getting into the wound.

Later all, peace out.
