I Feel a Blog Coming On...

This past Christmas has been absolutely amazing. My friends and family are so good to me! The greatest gift of all was being able to go to Iowa to visit my family out there. I had a blast! I got to spend some good, quality time with all of them. And I really enjoyed being able to spend time with my little brother and sister. They are two amazing kids and I feel fortunate to have them as my sibilings. I can't wait to see all the greatness they'll accomplish when they grow up! We had fun playing in the snow under the moonlight, seeing avatar, playing guitar hero, creating Mii's on the wii, and watching the old Christmas claymation films while acting them out. It was great and very much needed! It helped console me, in a sense. I mean, this may sound kinda crazy and stupid, but just knowing that they do still "exist" relieved me. It was nice seeing their routines and meeting their neighbors. But like all good things, it had to come to an end. I came home this past Saturday and I haven't really had time to accept the fact that I am, indeed, back home and things have to go back to normal. Coming home is always bittersweet. It's so nice to be back in your own surrounds (room, house, etc.), but it sucks that reality has to check in as well. And saying bye (oh, excuse me, I mean "see ya later") to four people is not easy...Especially when you're leaving and going home by yourself. But I sucked it up like a big girl. However, you know what makes it so worthwhile to come home?? How happy everyone is to see you. It's almost as if they never realized what they had until you left. Everyone (coworkers, friends, family, parents at work) has expressed how glad they are that I'm back. That's a nice feeling, to know that I am appreciated and loved. And I mean that with all sincerity. Anyways, that just about wraps it up. Just wanna end this by saying that I appreciate each and every single one of you who read this. I'm so grateful to have you in my life :)

Dear Santa...

Hello, world! It's been quite a while since I've sat down to write a blog. Today seemed like a good day to do so. I don't really have a lot of interesting things to write about, but I just thought I'd take the time to let you all know how my life is going. I've been doing pretty well actually. Been working between 35 - 40 hours a week at Tutor Time still. I took one class this semester and passed it. However, don't know if I'll be able to take any next semester...School means money...something that I lack at the moment. I dunno. It's possible! I can't afford to go back to being part time though. I definitely don't make enough.

Anywho, onto a new subject. I'm super stoked because I've been lucky enough to get some time off to go to Iowa :) It's very exciting! I haven't seen my family since the end of June/beginning of July. I'm in need of some Corbelli time! Nothing but laughter and fun :) I leave the 26th...I'm kinda stressing out though. I literally have NO warm clothes. And I don't have any boots. So if Santa doesn't bring me any, then I think I may have to buy some while I'm there. I don't do well with the cold. I say it all the time, but I really do live in Phoenix for a reason. I do better with the heat! :)

I've been pretty dedicated to the gym the past couple weeks. And I've noticed that my pants are a little bit looser. That makes me happy! All my hard work is paying off. I love pumping some iron ;) Haha.

I can't believe that Christmas is this Friday. Where did this month go to?? I mean, really...Where did it go???? Luckily, I finished ALL of my Christmas shopping yesterday! Phew...I can relax now. All that's left to do is wrap all of 'em...Blah. I'm not diggin that, but it's all part of the Christmas season. I'm really excited about this Christmas :) I'm excited about spending Christmas Eve with my family and being able to go back to my grandma's house. It's going to be great :)

Oh yeah, and did I happen to mention that my sister is pregnant?? Yup. The rumors are true ladies and gents! I'm going to be an auntie...again :D This is her and her husband's first, so it's way exciting for us all! I'm so excited for her. So so so so SO excited! I hope I'll be able to go out to Oregon when the baby is born! That would just be the cherry on top of a fantabulous year :)

Alrighty folks, well this was as random as random gets! I hope you all enjoy your holidays! Thanks for reading. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year :)

Funky Feelings

Lately, I've been in a funk. It's made me extremely irritable and I get upset at the littlest things. After being on vacation, I've come to realize some things. I don't really want the life that I lead. Part of me is wanting to get the hell out of Arizona. I feel as if I need new surroundings, new people. I've been mixed up in all sorts of drama for far too long and it kind of took it's toll on me. It's affected my diet, my mood, my relationships, my job...everything. In turn, it feels like I've slowly managed to slip into depression. Not good. I used to be able to pick myself up after these kind of things, but it's been really hard this time. I fell really hard and I'm unable to do it on my own. I'm in need of assistance and I feel like every time I start to get back up, something comes around to push me right back down again. It's a sad feeling. I feel sort of alone, even though I know I'm not. I have a hard time explaining my feelings and the thoughts going on in my head. Words have never been something I'm good with. I'm better at writing. I'm really missing my family. In both Oregon and Iowa. I thought I was okay, but some days I'm really not. I will be though, and in the end, that's what matters.

Well, that it's for now folks. Just a little blurb to help explain the mood swings. Peace out.

The Song Has Been Sung

And so, my family is officially moving to Iowa on the 19th of June. Yeah...bum deal to the max. I avoid things, including emotions and reality. Just avoid it altogether. Not one of the better qualities that I possess, but it's just something I do. For a while there, I really didn't think this move was going to happen. I was being pretty selfish because I was excited that they didn't have anyone interested in the house. Awful thing to be excited about, I know. But, again, I tend to be a little selfish at times. When they broke the news to me that the house had been sold, it was like I had been hit by a semi-truck. I heard that annoying "screeeeeeeeeeeech" sound inside my head. I wasn't quite sure how I should have reacted to the news. Should I be happy? Sad? Excited? Angry? All of the above??? I honestly don't know how I'm going to react when it happens. The great thing about it is that I have an amazing support system. My friends and family are wonderful and I know they will be there for me until the very end. I may need a lot of shoulders to lean on. This is going to kill part of me for a while, but I will move on and I'll become a stronger person after this. I truly didn't expect to live in the same state as my family for my entire life. I've been spoiled with that. I think what I'm mostly afraid of is that I'm going to miss out on my little brother and sister's lives. Ugh...I don't think anyone could possibly understand how much that tugs at my heart. Tears are welling up in my eyes right now at the very thought of it. I haven't been a huge part of their lives as it is, and now many regrets are surfacing. This too shall pass, this too shall pass. I gotta remember to just keep swimmin', just keep swimmin', and to keep moving forward. Two quotes from Disney movies in the same sentence :) That's how I roll.

Anyways, I dedicate this to my family. I will miss you very much. I'm hanging in there the best that I can. And in a crazy way, I believe that this will just bring us closer rather than push us farther apart. I love you guys. Don't worry, be happy :)

Hello, Bloggers!

It's been a while since I've used this handy dandy blogging site. I kinda forgot about it. And I've been a little busy with school and life. Life has been pretty dramatic for me lately. But it's slowly, but surely, getting back to normal. I haven't been doing that great on my diet. I've put on around 10 pounds over the last 2 months, because of all the stress and drama that has been going on in my life. However, starting tomorrow, I'm officially back on the diet. No cheating whatsoever. And I'm starting a kickboxing class tonight that I'm completely stoked about. I think by doing this, it'll help me lose weight even faster. It's time for me to get phsyical, physical! :) hehe. I'm trying not to stress too much about my weight gain. I've still lost 20 pounds and that's pretty amazing to me. I think that I look trim. And the most important thing is that I'm comfortable in my own skin. This diet has given me more confidence than I could have ever asked for. I'm good with that.

I went to California to visit my "Aunt Kelly" and "Uncle John" :) Haha...We went for Kelly's baby shower. It was a blast, but way too short! You seriously can't spend just 2 days in Cali. You hafta be able to actually spend time there, ya know? It wasn't very relaxing because we were just always going. Constantly...but I had a really good time! I must say though, Kelly and John are one of the only couples that I see who just seem to keep falling even more in love with each other. I admire them for that and I'm completely jealous of what they have, but very glad that they are both truly happy. I love watching them together. They're just so sweet! And they love being in each other's company. And they aren't too mushy about it. It's just...sweet! I know I already said that, but I'm running out of words to say.

Anyways, that's pretty much all I've got to say. I just wanted to check in. I'm not sure if anyone even reads this site anymore, but whatever! I enjoy writing :) Thanks for stopping by!

Hellz Yeah!

Hello my fellow blog readers! Just droppin in to write a quick note. I'm sitting here thinking to myself how worked up we all get over the superbowl. Even I get worked up; me who doesn't pay any attention to football whatsoever during the season. There's something about the superbowl that's exciting. I mean we treat it like it's a national holiday. Most men would probably argue with me on that one and say that it IS a holiday :) It's so amazing how well the Cardinals are doing. I'm not gonna sit here and pretend like I'm a huge Cardinals fan or anything, but I have to support them because they're my home team. It's nice to see them FINALLY doing well! I just don't like how everyone here has jumped on the bandwagon and is all of a sudden huge Cardinals fans. Most people here probably don't know a thing about them. Sad truth. Anyways, that's my sports talk for the day :)

I'm officially back in school and it's going well. It was the right decison and I'm way proud of myself! It's hard going back after being out for a year. I had several people tell me they didn't think I would go back. I started to believe it too. But after being stuck at Tutor Time for so long, I decided that that was no way to live...No way to live at all. What am I doing for a living? Raising kids, training to be a mom and a housewife. No thanks. Not for me. Not yet at least...I mean I'm only 20 years old folks! I need a career. I'm actually enjoying my job now though. Four days out of the week I only work four hours. So I'm able to tolerate it a little bit better. Yeah, it's a big cut in pay, but it's really okay. I don't need to be making a huge amount of money.

Anyways, I think that's really all I need to say for the time being :) I'll try to check in more often. Thanks for reading guys!

Back to School, Back to School...

I'm totally stoked because after being off for a year, I am officially going back to school in a week :) And I actually have a sense of direction this time. I'm going to get my AA in science because I've decided that I am going to go ahead and pursue zoology. There are so many things I would like to do, but I need to stick with one for now. I love animals. I love everything about them and they truly make me my happiest. Haha, yes I know that was corny. But it is so true. So it only makes sense to do something that I love. I'm so excited :) I feel good! And I feel more dedicated than I have in a while. Yay.

I chopped my hair yesterday. Well, I took about 2 inches off. And my layers on top are really short, which I hate but they need to get cut too. The guy told me that if I want my hair to be one length again, I'm going to have to cut it into the angled bob thing, which I contemplated doing it this time but I wasn't ready. However, next time I think I'm going to do it. Ugh...yeah I'm going to. My hair has thinned out so much and it's cause I have all those stupid short layers on the top of my head. Haha, yes I'm really writing about my hair in my blog. We all know how obsessed I am with it :) But I'll end it here.

I went in for my weigh in on Tuesday and I gained 3 pounds. I really wasn't that upset about it though. I was expecting it. I've been slacking way too much. But I'm finally getting back on track. My mom and I started walking again this week, and I'm gonna start doing a thousand crunches (haha not literally) 'cause my mom got me an awesome crunch ball for Christmas :) Last weekend I bought my first new pairs of jeans that are smaller than the size I've been wearing, AND I got rid of several pairs that were too big. Haha that's so exciting! This is going to be a good year. I think this is going to be the year I've been waiting for. I've been waiting for my life to change drastically and I really think this is it!

Anyways, just felt the need to write. I'm way excited about everything and I wanted to share my excitement with ya'll. Thanks for tuning in!

Bring on the new year

This Christmas kinda blew. I dunno. I was never really in the "Christmas spirit" for some reason. I was just living through it. Don't get me wrong, I got amazing gifts from everyone and I was really excited to give my presents, but I still wasn't really satisfied with everyone's reactions. I mean they all loved my gifts...I can't really explain it. I've been in a sort of funk ever since my co-worker walked out on me. I hate change. I hate coming back to such a huge change. I don't like it when my little world has been tampered with in such a big way. It's frustrating. But I'm doing the best that I can. I'm dealing. There are so many changes that are about to happen and I need to man up and accept them all. Let's see...we got my weight loss, my family moving, my job, going back to school...Change is inevitable. It's always happening. I'm a fool to think otherwise. I need to suck it up. I don't have to like it, but like I said, I need to accept it. Life would be boring without change. So incredibly boring. And I think that's part of my problem. My life doesn't have enough change going on. I have the same routine practically every day (weekends not included). Get up, go to work, come home, bed, get up, go to work, come home, bed...How boring is that?? I'm like a robot. I need to live. I need to take the time and go out with my friends on week nights. So what if I get an hour or 2 less of sleep? I can catch up the next night :) I hate going to bed on the week nights though. I've joked about it with my coworkers, but I truly mean it. The sooner I go to bed, the sooner I have to get up and go to work. Isn't that an awful way to think?? Nobody should live like that. Nobody. And yet, here I am. Living the life I always dreaded to live. I need some excitement. That's my new years resolution - excitement. Next weekend, I'm going through my closet and getting rid of all the clothes I don't wear anymore. I going through all the junk I own and I'm throwing away the stuff I don't use. I'm ready to look change in the eye. I'm embracing it, welcoming it with open arms. This is what I need. Some of you are probably laughing, but I'm taking baby steps. I will overcome this! :)

Anyways, this blog turned in to something I really wasn't expecting. Didn't mean to rant like that. But I must admit, I do feel better! Happy New Year! :) I hope you all had an amazing holiday. Thanks for reading.

Feeeeeelings....

Ever notice how when you're upset or frustrated during the holiday season, people will tell you, "Don't worry, Christmas is coming." As if that's going to make everything better. Don't get me wrong, I love Christmas. But it doesn't fix my problems. It just puts them on hold for a day. Most of you know that I had pink eye all last week and that I was out of work until Thursday. Well, on Wednesday my co-teacher went on her lunch break and never returned. She just left. Mind you, I was out sick and had no idea this was going on. She had my phone number, she could've sent me a text message telling me she'd had it. She owed me that much. So on Thursday, I went in feeling pretty good. I was looking forward to getting out of the house 'cause I had been cooped up for four days. When I walked into the building, nobody in management had the courtesy to tell me that my co-teacher quit. None of them. I was there for an hour before I heard it from one of my other co-workers. I was absolutely devasted and I had the hardest time holding back my tears all day. I felt like I was being overly sensitive about it. But I mean, we were good friends! It was the last thing I was expecting. I mean, I don't blame her for doing that to the company, but she kinda screwed me over too, ya know? It's so selfish. Now it's my mess to clean up and I'm so tired of cleaning up everyone elses messes. I'm mentally drained. I don't like going into work, feeling like a prisoner. Yes, that's what I feel like! Once you go in, you don't know when you're going to get out! True story. It's been quite stressful there. I have kids in my class who are a pain in the friggen ass and they don't belong to me. They belonged to my co-teacher. Ugh....So frustrating.

I'm hanging in there, guys. Just waiting for that awesome job to come. Sent in 2 applications last week. Keep your fingers crossed. I need all the help I can get!

Anyways, Merry Christmas guys. Thanks for reading.

Sick Day

Alrighty, so somehow I've managed to get pink eye. Awesome, right? I can't even remember the last time I had pink eye. It's so embarrassing though. I look completely stoned. I went to the doctor today and he recommended that I stay home from work until Thursday (heck yes!). When he first saw me, his jaw literally dropped. He told me he hasn't seen eyes this bad in a long time. So here I am, sitting at home writing a blog with big, pink, puffy eyes. I woke up this morning and my eyes were literally glued shut because of all the nasty gunk. I had to pull them open. Oy vay. The doctor seems to think it's all my sinuses acting up and it's just coming out through my eyes. LOL Wow...

Enough about that. Ten days left until Christmas. I can't believe that. I don't feel like I've really had time to enjoy it at all. It all seems to be happening and yet, I'm not really embracing it. I don't really know why. But I'm still just excited. I've found some really awesome gifts for people and I can't wait for them to open them :) Yay.

Anyways, nothing else to report. Just wanted to write a small blog since I have nothing else to do and I can't really leave the house looking like this. Happy Holidays :)

Lala Is My Name, Random Is My Game

You know what one of my favorite things about Thanksgiving is? How little traffic there is. I know it sounds weird, but I've always been fascinated by that fact. Just looking out onto the street only seeing one car pass by about every ten minutes. For one day, most people are spending the day at home with the ones they love, without any other care in the world. I love it. I love that for just one day, the world stops completely. All you do is focus on the delicious dinner you are soon going to eat and you're enjoying your family's company. Random thought for the day :)

Ever since I've started this diet, I've been getting a lot of compliments - on everything. My clothes, my hair, my makeup, my shoes, my socks, my jewelery, how skinny I look, how pretty I am. Don't get me wrong, it's all very flattering. But at the same time it's a little overwhelming. I've never been good with compliments. I get easily embarrassed. I'm one of those people where I'd rather be complimented behind my back rather than to my face, you know? But at the same time, I love it. I need to hear it because it just inspires me to keep going with this, that it actually is working. I'm not complaining, so please don't mistake this for that. It's all new to me. For once, people are jealous of me. Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating a bit there. But you get what I'm trying to say.

I'm completely engaged in the Twilight book. I know, I'm just like everyone else out there. But it fascinates me. And what fascinates me even more is how much I have in common with the character Bella. Maybe I'll meet some hot, studly vampire who won't be able to stay away from me ;) Haha, totally kidding. I'm not that obsessed folks. But it really is a good book. I highly recommend it!

I'm excited because I've gotten most of my Christmas shopping done. Now I'm feeling like Christmas. It was hard for me to get excited about it, with the whole Iwoa thing. Then I realized I was just being a Debbie Downer and I needed to suck it up. So that's exactly what I'm doing and I'm stoked for Christmas to come. Yay!

Alrighty, random blog. Random is how I roll though. Get over it :) I hope you all had a great holiday weekend. I certainly did! Take care everyone. Thanks for reading! Lala - out! (haha...oh I still think that's funny)

Just Keep Swimming...

Alrighty, so my last couple of blogs have been completely pessimistic. I'm really not this horrible person who is always depressed and only looks at the bad side of things. I'm actually quite positive. When I write my blogs, they are completely raw. No editing whatsoever (okay, well that's kind of a lie. I do check for spelling!) But other than that, everything you read is the thought that popped into my head the second before I typed it. So I would like to apologize to anyone who may have read my last blog and gotten upset by it.

I've come to the realization that this whole Iwoa thing is happening. You can fight it or you can go with it. If you fight it, it's going to be a lot harder along the way. If you accept it, then things will be a lot smoother. I'm not going to sit here and dwell anymore. It's not happening yet. I woke up the other morning feeling really good and content with life and I decided that I like feeling that way. No, my life is definitely not perfect. But I'm going to do my best to change the things that I have control over. I've already started with this diet I'm on. I've lost 18 pounds in 2 months. Think what you want, but I'm pretty proud of that number. That's more weight than I've ever managed to lose on a diet before. Yay :)

I'm going to do my best to stay as positive as I possibly can. That's the only thing I can do right now. Positive brings positive. Negative brings negative. As once quoted by a wise fish, I'm going to "just keep swimming, just keep swimming..." and take whatever is thrown at me with a grain of salt.

Well, I'm starting to draw a blank so I'm going to end it here. So long for now my fellow blog readers! I hope you all have an absolutely fantabulous weekend. Thanks for tuning in :) Have a great night.

Definitely Needing Some Holiday Cheer

I have the tendancy to dwell on things. It's definitely one of my worst habits and I hope to some day be rid of it. But for now, it's just who I am. Yes, half of my family is moving to Iowa. No, I'm not too thrilled about the whole thing.

At this point, I'm not really sure how I'm going to make it through this. I'm completely bummed on life. I try to get excited about Christmas, but then it hits me that this may be the last time I'll celebrate my traditional kinda Christmas, Christmas the way I know it.

I knew that we would all go our seperate ways one day, but this truly snuck up on me. I'm angry that this is happening. Not at them. I'm mad at the situation. I almost didn't want to go to the family gathering we had on Saturday because I was mad/sad. However, I knew I would regret that entirely. I'm the kind of person who doesn't like to deal with things. If you don't face them, maybe they'll go away (haha yeah right). Well, this isn't going to disappear. This is happening whether I like it or not. Yeah I may put on a smile, but I'm hurting so bad on the inside.

I don't like to show my vulnerability to people. I'm definitely going to be needing some extra hugs through all of this. And as difficult of a time that I'm having with this, I know they're having an even harder time than I am. They're leaving everyone and everything they know. It's a scary thing. I'm trying my hardest to be as supportive as possible, but how can you be supportive of something you're completely against? Okay, I wouldn't say completely. If it wasn't for this move, my dad could be unemployed. So in that aspect, I'm all for it. And I completely understand. It's just a sucky situation.

I know this may not be forever (and I secretly hope it won't), but the thought of not having them near depresses me. Yeah we live in different cities, but it's only a hundred and some odd miles away. This is thousands of miles away. Hum dee dum...Don't worry folks. I will make it through this. I have amazing people that are here to support me and stand behind me through it all. I appreciate you all. For now, I'm going to cherish the time I have left with them. I know I'm talking as if one of us were dying or something and I apologize. Not my intention at all.

I love you guys very much. I'm always thinking about ya.

Sweet dreams.

Can Someone Please Take The Knife Out Of My Heart?

I got the dreaded phone call last night. Over the past few months, the company my dad now works for has debated on where to move him. First it was just between Tucson and Austin. Then Tucson was pretty much out of the picture and it was definitely going to be Austin. And then a couple weeks ago, his bossed asked him what he thought about Iowa. Well folks, it looks like my family members are going to be farmers. Iowa it is and bummed I am. It felt like someone had honestly ripped my heart out, stomped on it, threw it in a blender, and then stomped on it some more. I'm not going to pretend like I'm not sad because I am truly devastated. But at the same time I'm not going to be selfish. This is a great opportunity for all of them. My dad is very proud of his new VP position and so am I. I am going to need some reassurance that everything will work out though. I've been crying a lot off and on over the past 24 hours, which I think I'm entitled to do. The thing is, I knew this was going to happen and yet I wasn't at all prepared for it. But when the time comes, I'm going to suck it up, wish them luck, give them the biggest hug ever, and tell them I'll be seeing them soon. But right now I'm going to take advantage of the time I have left with them. This is all I have to say for now. There's so much running through my head at the moment and it's all jumbled up and not coming out clear. Just know that I love you guys.

A little bit less of me

Most of you know that I've started this diet called Smart For Life. Yeah diets kinda suck and what not, but I feel that this was the only way for me to actually get serious about losing weight. I've tried the whole eating healthy thing and whenever there was temptation, I would fail. I hate only being able to eat one meal a day, but this diet is working. Somehow I'm able to look completely past all the bad. I don't forget that the bad is there, but I'm able to look past it all. So far I've lost about 15 pounds in a total of 6 weeks, which I think is the healthy way to do it. They guarantee 15 pounds a month, but I'm not doing it as strictly as I'm supposed to and I'm okay with that. I'm not going to kill myself for a diet. I go in every Tuesday night after work and get weighed in. I'm thinking I may not be losing any weight this week 'cause I cheated on Friday night and had 3 small cookies...Bad Lauren. But I try to tell myself that I'm only human and sometimes tempation is going to be there and it's going to win. I haven't started working out yet. My mom and I are going to begin walking around the park again every night. And eventually I want to join a Zumba class. Yeah, bay-bay! As soon as I start working out, I think the weight will start to pour off. I'm completely excited though. I've never really lost weight on a diet before. So this is all new to me. I'm trying not to let it all get to my head though. But it amazes me how much of a difference people notice. Honestly, I don't think you're able to tell that much, but then again I see myself every day. People are always telling me how skinny I look, which is nice. I never realized how out of hand I let my weight get. The problem is that I'm not in high school anymore. While I was in high school, I wanted so badly to fit in with all my skinny friends. That was my motivation to lose weight. Then post high school, I didn't see all the skinny people as often and I started to become content with the way I looked, which isn't a bad thing. But I let it get out of hand. I would see myself in some pictures and think, oh my goodness, that's humiliating. That's when I decided I needed to start doing something about it. And here I am today.

Well, I didn't mean for this blog to be as long as it is. Thanks for stopping by :) Hope you all are enjoying this beautiful weather we're having today! Have a great week!

Change is Good

As we all know, we have a new president elect. I've never been one to follow politics, propositions, governors, yada yada yada. Politics isn't one of my better subjects and I'm not gonna sit here and pretend like I know what I'm talking about when the subject is brought up. However, I believe that this was definitely one of (if not THE most) historical elections America has ever witnessed. Either way, we would have made history. If McCain had won, the White House would have its first female Vice President. I'm really looking forward to having Obama as my president. He seems like a genuinely good person and like he really cares about the people of America. I've said it to several people before and I'll keep on saying it - I feel like when he speaks, he's talking to you rather than at you. I actually cried when he won. Tears of happiness of course! I am so proud of America for looking past all the racial crap and actually accepting Obama and believing in what he stands for. I am so thankful that I was able to live during this election, because as I said before, this is going down in history and I find it to be amazing. However, people who say that they're moving to Canada....You know what have to say to that? GOOD! We're better off without you and your negativity. How can you be that stupid to actually believe that things are only going to get worse? I'm sorry, I have a hard time finding the sense in that statement. But anyway, I'm looking forward to this change. Obama is an incredible man and he's taking on a lot of responsibility. I think it's only fair that we give him all of our support. He has a huge mess to clean up and I think he'll do it successfully.

Okay, well I think you've read enough of me babbling on about a subject I clearly don't know enough about, but plan on becoming more educated in :) Stay positive, people. Positive brings positive. Until next time America - Lala out! (As in Seacrest out...hahaha...I thought it was cute)

Drawing a Blank...

Hmm...Well, I'm new to this thing, so I'm not gonna take up too much of your time. If you've read my blogs on myspace, you'll know I like to write basically about anything and everything. Writing is one of my strengths :) Alright, well, I hope you all have an absolutely fantabulous night and thanks for stopping by!
