Cold Water Blues

So I wake up this morning with a million things to do only to realize I have no hot water. Now, a lot of people may not know this but I really dig a hot, soapy shower or a steamy bubble bath. Yes, this is absolute relaxation for me. I love nothing more than water sliding down my skin with fragrant bubbles. But I digress, there was only cold water for me to bathe in, so I skipped it and went about my day without it until about 4. I have to say it can be kinda difficult living in New Orleans with such hot weather and no shower, but thanks to wipes I made it.

Other than that I had a fruitful day. I got a lot accomplished and I feel good about myself. :)

I am sexy.

That is all for now ;)

Monday, Monday

So today is going to be busier than I thought. I stayed in bed until the absolute last minute cause I didn't feel well. Anyways, now that I am up I realize I have a 4-7 page paper due before midnight, one to edit before tomorrow and some chapters that I need to read. I need to post on Blackboard, I need to update my resume. I want to relax. I want to sleep. I don't want to be sick. I want to frolic in the park. Now I think I really get my class that talks about woman-self and woman-being. My being is forced to do all this foolishness, while my self is chilling. I am starting to realize that I would like to live a life with a job, a husband and some kids. I think that would be ideal for me. I need to feel busy, obligated but not enslaved. Yep-that's me, I like to be busy and sort of tested just not stressed. I have good friends (except one or two toxic ones I might need to kick out and even that will come in time). I must say I miss the easy life of high school but mostly I think I just miss the people who helped me to grow into the woman I am today. Looking back on it all I realize that I was quiet, a non-fighter, and I did a whole lot of not standing up for myself. I let a lot of things slide. Now I am gonna tell you the truth. You're gonna hear in case you want to or not. It's not such a bad way to be. People are going to have to get that you have to show respect to other people. You can't just go around treating people any way you want.
Ok break time is over, so that's all for now. :)

A Reflective Peace

So it's been almost four years since I started this whole college thing. I am going to be done soon and I think life after college is going to be very interesting. I am becoming very nervous and anxious about how life after college is going to work per se. I mean apartment, car, bills, more school, job, relationships, keeping up with friends. It's all too much for one person to take in all at one time. I think a lot of people think I am doing these things effortlessly, but wow, if you only knew. This is so not easy. It's like every time you think you've got it right there's another setback. There's never enough hours in the day to get things done. You're always stressed or tired and even when you're relaxing and trying to do nothing something always crosses your mind. Sometimes I don't know how I am going to make it, I just know I have God, a great family, wonderful friends and an amazing life that I am so grateful for. Anyways, I hope everyone has a good week.

As Gina would say,

Perfect Peace:)
