today is a day I have been waiting for, when I finally feel like me again.
"me". again. hahha
I'm not being selfish anymore, focusing on my own problems. In these past couple weeks, I've kind of lost myself in all "the madness", trying to figure out where exactly my place is in all that's been happening, while still trying to take care of myself.
But even though I've been trying my hardest to keep my sensitivity towards others, I haven't been caring for them as much as I usually do. And it's really sad, because I've felt it. I've felt myself being less caring, and it's horrible to say that I ignored it. I ignored the opportunity to try and do what Jesus would do.
Some people say it's easier to just not care, but how could it be easier to be stuck with the guilt of knowing you could have been the one to make someone smile, or make somebody's day, which could truly change their life !!
I'm okay now. It's true, the month of February always just SUCKS. I wanted to wait til tomorrow to b-log, but I figured I could at least end this crappy month with a BANG
hhaha
I've been lucky enough to find some reallllyy great people in my life, who have come and 'lifted' me, I guess, at just the right time. Being in my comfort zone will get.me.NOwhere.
There are people that care for me, and want to see me happy, as I do them.
There IS a plan, and I know God has put these people in my path to not only help keep me happy, but safe and true to myself.
There is nothing better than being your best self-not only FOR yourself, but for God who did not waste useless talents and strengths on you.

bright
I tried not to let it get to this point hahh.
tomorrow will be one week since my grandpa died, and monday will be a week since my grnadma died.
I didn't realize until this happened that I have never gone through someone close to me dying. There have been people I've known who have died, but they weren't really close enough to me to effect the way I wake up every morning now.
Funny how I wasn't necessarily the closest to my grandparents.. no reason really, I was just 'busy'.
Being busy always takes up what is more important. I had to punk out on cooking with grandma one night because I had to work.
becauseihadtowork. that poor thing just wanted to spend time with me, and I know I still would've been able to survive if I hadn't worked that night.
I painted Grandma's nails for her before she died on Valentine's Day, so when I heard she was gone I painted my toes the same color hah.
The church has been soooo so good to us. Our phone has been ringing off.the.HOOK, and last night a lady from church brought us a cake hah :)
So many people have been praying for us, and I reallyy truly AM grateful, and have felt how it has kept me strong
but I still just cry. and cry, and cry. on my way to work, and at night, and whenever I try not to think about it.
I know that with a trial comes a blessing, so I'm hanging on to that
and to faith, of course

my mind is blank when it comes to putting a title for this one
but blogs aren't about titles, are they ? ..o.O
I have found myself at an alltime low today for some reason.
or just this week. i think my grandparents' cancers have just taken an ENORMOUS chunk out of all of us, and now I'm not functioning" the same I guess.
I don't want to sound like a complainer
but my knee is hurting
and I've been trying to work on having better posture and my back is KILLING. me. and it scares me, because I know it's not just from working on my posture
I know that it will eventually get worse and I will mooostt likely have to have surgery on it, but it scares me to think it may be sooner rather than later. a 20 year old getting back surgery really ??!
I can't work out that much lately cuz of the achy's hah..and I feel lower and LOWER every day that I don't. I feel sick. which IS sick, because I shouldn't feel like that.
how sad.
I try not to let myself get to this point
..
I don't really have anybody to tell this to, and besides God, I don't really know anybody who would necessarily 'understand'.. at least noone I can think of that would.
of course life could be worse. of course everyone has issues. I'm not trying to be selfish in any way. I'm not trying to put the focus on me, or to make anyone feel sorry for me.
I just don't really feel like anybody can make me feel 'good' again. but I don't even know what 'good' would be to me.
o.o

Hey now..
In the matter of 20 years being a VERY. dramatic person
and in the matter of 1 week, everything has seemed to fall apart and together at the same time.
Of course, not everything has fallen apart. But when I go through a trial, I tend to put all of my attention and energy on what I'm going through, rather than putting my energy on what I am still blessed with.
"In trials, never blame God, and never ask 'why'. Having faith gives you the knowledge that everything will be alright. 'I know what I know, and that can't be taken from me through ANY trial.' There is only one who can turn anger into complete gratitude when His plan is understood."

Far, Far
I haven't been on this in awhile
wel it's been awhile to Me hah.. I feel more alive not relying on something to give me something to do like this
or Myspace. I really don't feel much different after deleting it to be completely honest. It just forces me to do SOMEthing, rather than sit in front of the computer. I go outside a LOT more, which I like doing more anyway
I went to San Diego on Saturday. It was BEAUTIFUL down there.
It's kind of funny being content in this city, and then going out and realizing how much more there is, like I always wanted to.
The sun down there was so bright and the air seemed S0 much clearer than ours..
there was so much to do, and so much LIFE
but I think I'm just one of those people that would get tired of all that 'life' constantly.
I like the quiet out here, without all the forest or w/e is usually tied into quiet towns. haha
I'm learning to become more content with myself also..
mostly because I keep praying, and praying, and PRAYING for it
it'll happen, I know it will eventually. it has to.
ahhhhhhhhheodhaledfhcqwoexn239934nc903n !!!

500 days of summer
i want to act
but i think now. the more i watch movies, the more i realize i don't really like myself. not that there's anything bad to me i think i'm a good person
but then i see people in movies that are so much more creative than me, and it makes me not want to be
myself ?
i realize i'm not really as 'individual', you could say, at how I think.
of course the characters in the movie aren't real
but the lines are, and the ideas are from real people
i wonder.... if i had never watched a movie in my life, and liked the characters in them more than myself
if i would be the same person i am now.
if i hadn't of compared myself to them, or even tried to BE like them, would I be any different.
would i think any different, or be any more interesting, rather than just
average.
if we didn't have these things to influence us on what is the 'ideal' type of person in our minds, maybe it wouldn't be so hard for everyone to be themselves..
or to just not care what other people thought of them.
of course I could be wrong, but do i really want to try and contribute to people like me who are impressionable, so they turn to movies or shows instead of finding their own identity ?
i've always had a hard time thinking for myself. of course i have my own beliefs and opinions, but not necessarily my own identity. I guess that's just something to work on.
tell me to go shop for clothes that are completely my style, and I will have NO clue what to do.
"lost" if you will.
B.T.W. i finally deleted my myspace. ...1 month and 1 day later than i said i was going to
but BAM! did it. hahah. sooo0o proud. S0 proud.
