Radio, Radio

This morning on my drive in to work there was a radio ad for some diet pill, Healthy Trim. I'm not going to lie, I have looked it up. I have read about it, maybe even had all my information filled out but didn't push confirm order...

What is it that makes "The Cheater Way" seem so much better than "The Right Way"? This isn't just a thought for weight issues, but anything in life that gives you a short cut but you know the short cut isn't really right!

I'm not exactly sure where I want to lead this blog too. But, "Cheaters never prosper" and there is a lot of gratification of getting to the end of the road the right way.

*disclaimer, I am definitely not saying that someone taking or doing a certain way to help jumpstart something is a cheater... so I hope no one takes offense or is hurt by what I am saying... Its kind of an analogy to life I guess... Sometimes you need a little push, I get that. But sometimes, take the high road...

Good Morning World!

I woke up this morning, still on the wrong side of the bed, but I am going to try to change that! Last night I was in bed, procrastinating and there was the loudest pop ever! I text my roommate, (too scared to go out to the kitchen because I had no idea what had happened) and asked if she was in the kitchen. She said no but that her bf went out there and couldnt see anything. we blamed it on our neighbor upstairs, most noise comes from him anyways, but it just didnt seem possible to me. well about 30 minutes later I decide to go out and check it out myself and everything looked normal until I opened up the refrigerator! a diet coke that was in the top very back of the fridge EXPLODED everywhere! it had frozen and just too much pressure! there was DIET COKE SLUSH EVERYWHERE!!!! it was almost 11 oclock which is way too late for me anyways but I couldnt not clean it because it would have been impossible to clean up after it had dried. I had to take EVERYTHING, and I mean EVERYTHING out of the fridge to clean up the mess. sooo, lessons learned: Don't have your fridge too cold, Don't put soda in the far back, and if youre in a bad mood staying up late to clean up a mess doesn't help in the morning!

but on a good note, I just had a really yummy breakfast for only 3 points!! Half a whole wheat sandwich thin with half a laughing cow cheese. I sliced up half a roma tomato and friend 1 egg with 1 egg white! Yuuuuummmmmm!

off to school! <3

You know its that time of the month....

i had this great idea for a blog post. i was going to vent, whine, complain, let everything out i have been holding in because i was just plain moody and frustrated when i got home. if its the stress from the next week that i can see ahead, if its because i was hungry or if it was because i can tell that i am mooooooooooody, im not sure exactly but earlier i wanted to let it all out. now that i am here trying to come up with all the things that were driving me crazy just 15 minutes ago, i cant now...

what happens to you when that time comes around?!

Well, here it is...

Ok so, I am going to put it all out there. I started Weight Watchers this week. I know some people may say, why the heck did you do that?! Or, you don't need to lose any weight!! And I know, I know I am very blessed and lucky because weight has never been a huge issue that I have had but for me, it is still an issue. I want to have a healthier lifestyle and feel comfortable in my own skin. I have always been someone with great confidence and I can honestly say I have never felt super self conscious in my own skin, but as of late, I have. I have found myself really beating myself up not because of a number but because of my energy level, the way my clothes fit (or don't) and just plain and simple, I am not comfortable!! I know I am not the only who feels this way sometimes, and truly its not about the number on the scale. Its not like I have to weigh a certain amount for me to feel comfortable but I want to fit into my jeans again, not wear dresses because I have too but because I want too. Or that my "fat" jeans are my tight jeans now!! I'm really sorry if it sounds like I am complaining, but these are my feelings right now, and I want to put them out there! Oo and its a support system, my mom and sister both started as well so we can all do it together. Its a great feeling to have really put a start to this and hopefully change these decision I have to consciously make into a healthier lifestyle. I am really starting to realize that what I do to my body now will have a huge affect on how I am when I am older and it would be better to get this under control now than later! thanks for listening. and if anyone else needs that extra push, I am here for you!! love you xoxoxo

Control...

I'm not really sure when it started. I don't remember always being like this... control. Sometimes it engulfs me. I have to be in a controlled situation, things need to be this way, not that my way is always the best but there has to be some kind of organization to what is going on. If you don't have things organized or put things where ever you want them to be you can never keep track of things. I have really been struggling with the idea of control lately. Things always seem to be out of control and I try to put them back and it just doesn't work. I am not sure why I let little things get to me but they do! I don't think I am obsessive about it, I just think that there is an order and people need to recognize it and follow it.

frustrated.

Tired of this Rain Cloud

I have been No Bueno at updated my blog with my cooking adventures or just anything. but this morning I have something to say, I just dont have to words to say it.

Not sure why I felt like I could come here but no where else seemed like it would matter. But O well... here come my words...

I guess I just have a lot on my mind. Why people do certain things or act certain ways? I cant keep up anymore! One day you are happy, one day you are not, one day you are friends, the next day you dont talk. Maybe its that ever occuring problem of expectations. everyone's are different, everyone expects certain things from certain people, but its funny when they expect so much from you, yet you dont get much from them. let me explain, its like people always expect the best, and the most from you, yet you dont get that from them. I dont want to live my life where people have to walk on eggshells around me. I dont want to be a kind of friend that people arent sure how my moods will be so they dont know if they should act one way or another around me. I dont want to bring other people down when they are having good days! I just dont want to take on other peoples burdens anymore. I feel like I am a sponge, I take on the vibes of others around me.

I want to brighten everyones days and lives. Even on my bad days, I want to be something good for someone else. I want to be a cup of joy that overflows for others to have my joy as well. I feel like this is something important, that this is something I truly can change because its a choice. I have a choice to be truly positive and up lifting to those around me. I have a choice to extend my hand to my friends even when they dont do it to me. I just want to be real good for people.

Im just tired of this rain cloud that gets tugged around. So I'm letting it go!

PS... I think I am starting my happy campaign once again! =)

Faceless Travels

Sooo I haven't been as good as I wanted to be with the whole Kate's Cooks but I was talking to a friend tonight, and looking through old writings and this came up... I thought I would post it here.

its intimate. its revealing. its me.

-The Faceless Travel

Im not much a writer but these are my words
They're going to form a story just of a world
It starts with a girl and will end with her too
The Mysteries held within are between me and you

Its hard to tell from where it begins
Because she didnt feel life until she met him
Life had happened before, just not in her heart
So lets begin, Lets take it from the start.

She traveled down roads some long and straight
Others more troublesome, she never knew til too late
Where she will end only he will know
So she kept on running down all the wrong roads.

Most roads undiscovered were pure in her eyes
Some she goes back to for the comfort of lies
Old wounds from old travels hold her captive to old ways
she tries to let go when she cant she just cries
"Listen to way I have to say!"

"You know that I need you here by my side,
to carry me through my life needs a guide
I need your grace, your comfort and all of your heart
you're what I've been needing, my life is ready to start"

There are places she goes but never alone
These roads once desperate, now careful to roam
With him by her side shes never afraid
She knows the paths that she wanders, he already paved

The sky not always blue, the grass not always green
She puts one foot forward, patient for the unseen
Each road has a treasue and secrets untold
Yet every encounter is a treasure alone.

She has her own struggles that you'll never know
She wants you to know why but she feels so alone
There are memories she has that she wished went away
She tries to breathe deep inside when she cant she just cries
"Listen to way I have to say!"

"You know my heart and even my mind
you are in my life but where are you most the time!
I know my life would be nothing, it started with you
but Im ready for more, can you give me that too!"

The wandering girl travels down yet another dark road
Not knowing who is waiting for her hand to hold
This is where she will meet the one he has for her
This is all she has asked for, its love she is sure.

They go on their way hand in hand
Some days it may pour, but they continue to stand
She knows what it is, what it is her heart feels
Shes been down this road but it wasnt this real

This girl and this boy dream of for forevers
She wants them to walk all their roads together
But somethings not there, it hold the boy back
She just wants to know what it is that she lacks?

The memories they make are her favorite of all
She hopes her love is enough, but she feels so small.
She wants the boys love but doesnt know the way
She tries to not lose herself but when she cant she just cries
"Listen to what I have to say!"

"How can it feel this way so good and so bad?
Sometimes I wonder does the boy miss what he had?
Now you need to tell me am I wasting 'for forevers'?
Or is this something the boy knows has always been a never?"

She needs that comfort of him and those words from his heart
Shes never questions what the boy has from the start
Here they are now but they came from such different places
She knows that their lives have been filled with different faces.

The struggles she has are all from before
She tries to forget them and move on to more
She hates to admit shes afraid from her past
She just needs to know their forever will last.

The boy has fears too its something she can tell
Her travels become faceless as her heart continues to swell
She has lost herself in the boy and all of his ways
She tries to be honest but when she cant she just cries
"Listen to way I have to say!"

"I cant promise you 'for forevers' and days of sunshine
but I can promise you this my heart is not mine
I have done what I can, I dont know what else I can do
But I guess its just one thing I will never hear from you."
