airlift rescue

so, all i do is exercise and eat healthy now.

this morning hiking, i saw two helicopters, they kept circling around and my cousin and i were trying to figure out what was going on.

no other people on the trail. somewhat early morning. weirdness!

then we got to the very tippy top and there was a group of people sitting.... we checked out the view, and began going down.

i made a joke about how i wasn't going to carry my cousin down if she fell...

then we see at least ten firemen(only 1 hottie) coming up, with a bunch of stuff and a stretcher on wheels. they asked how much further, and i told them just a few minutes. they asked if we wanted to help, somewhat joking, somewhat serious. i think by the sign of their drenched shirts they were pretty tired.

anyway, turns out it was all over the news... an older lady we having chest pains.

so, new note to self... bring cell phone even though it is annoying to have stuff when running down... because i may need a rescue someday.

oh, and i did 500 crunches today. i am obsessed.

the hardest thing ive ever had to do

waking up at 530 to workout. i hate it.

but i love the results im getting already and its only been a few weeks.

it takes hard work and dedication, and a verrrrrry early bedtime.

i have given up social life for exercise.

speak up

its much easier to get what you want if you just make it known. and even if you don't get it, you will be happier knowing you spoke your mind.

ps. exercise and eating right are addictive.

eye opening

i found out this morning before work that a young man i knew from ub was shot and killed a few weeks ago.

i was completely shocked and upset. although i didn't know him too well, he seemed like a nice guy, and we kissed once. i hung out with him and a bunch of ub people one night and we drank and had fun and craziness. it was one of those random great nights that stay clear in your memory.

what is even more odd is that i have lots of photos of him in my laptop, from that night we hung out, and me and friends would look at them sometimes and laugh.

he was 23, and was murdered the same day he graduated. luckily the cameras in main street caught the murderer. the poor guy's mother had to spend mother's day making funeral arrangements.

it makes me think... i want to really live each day with meaning and be full of life. i know life is hard, but at this age i(and everyone my age) have so much to look forward to, and so many decisions to make and ways to shape my life....

i just don't want to live a wasted life. i don't want to ever feel sorry for myself again and or wish i have something i don't. it can all disappear like that.

i doubt i would have ever talked to him or reconnected with him, but he made an impact on my life. it's a wake up call, to realize how amazing my life is...

i am grateful to be here now.

the end of the world

i had this dream last night that the world was basically/possibly ending.

there was this giant flood everywhere and it destroyed most of the food.

i was somehow in blo and when the flood hit i was with my brother, and i was swimming with one arm so i could save my laptop, which i did.

then i met up with (e:paul), (e:mike), (e:terry), (e:hodown), and (e:matthew) and we headed to wegmans to buy lots of meat and some canned fruit and veggies.

we were living in some house in the sorta ghetto, maybe like one of (e:paul)'s first apartments.

i ended up in charge of the food, surprise, and, i decided the men should eat more so they could stay strong.

other people weren't taking the whole ordeal seriously but we were preparing for the worst, in the most fun way possible of course, with peppercorn covered steaks.

i decided, if the world does end in 2012, i would like the end it with these peeps. however, i really hope there is no end of the world in sight.

80 cent plane ticket

the remaining cost of my plane tickey to blo, 80 cent.

i was using up a voucher. it was actually too low a price and i had to call in to purchase it because the website kept getting all messed up.

i will only be in blo for a few hours... im coming there first so i can travel to aruba with my friend. if i flew from here it would be a 24 hour fiasco, which isn't my thing.

plus better to travel together than alone.

aruba by way of blo here i come!!!!!

women

women tell other women not to trust men.

but really they are trying to divert your attention because it is other women you can't trust.

most will knock you when you're down, and then try and deny it later.

i have less of a problem with men because most don't pretend to be completely honorable.

i'm going in the pool now.

vacations galore!

i am going to aruba in sept with a friend for a wedding.

plus (e:deeglam) is coming in july and we are going to resort it up here.

so, i have a little mini-fun weekend plus a big vaca to save for!

i think i am going to start looking for an extra job, just to bring a undred or two more home a week to save.

i think in addition to already having a f/t job and then working a few hours at my other job, and taking summer classes i am really just going to have no social life.

but i have little of such as it is.

anyway, i'm really happy and excited about all of these fun plans!!!!

i already have a fancy designer dress for the wedding, oh lala!

i need to start my workout plan!

mr sun

he is calling me and asking me to come out and play but i must work.

i was supposed to get the entire weekend off, but the other sec. needed saturday off, so i was only off yesterday.

now i must work mon-wed, and then off thurs/fri and on next weekend.

and next weekend is a holiday which will be the third consecutive holiday i've worked. somehow this doesn't add up.

oh well i get time and a half for holidays.

i just thank god i don't have to work work with the crazy this week who makes up stories about my non-compliance and cell phone usage.

i can't wait until thursday, when i can return to book reading and the pool. my two current fav things.
