Chill Weekend!

Time for a personal blog entry, because....well, because I feel like it! haha. This weekend has gone by way too fast, but I say that every weekend. It was such a chill weekend, and I really needed that. Saturday was spent staying in bed and watching movies and catching up on my American television shows. I was supposed to go grocery shopping, but my mom called and said that since she was already at the grocery store she would do my shopping for me, because I should rest! I know, I have the best mommy in the whole world! I think the real reason she did the grocery shopping for me was because she didn't want me to be tempted into buying junk food.  I must say that my parents have been a great support system for me while I try leading a healthier life.  I ended up watching Alien vs. Predator, Saving Private Ryan and catching up on Dance Mom's and Project Runway...and I did all this while staying in bed! Hell yea! That sounds like a perfect Saturday to me.  The only thing missing was...shoppingggg!

Today(Sunday) was a little more busy, but still pretty chill. I woke up to my annoying neighbors using their chainsaw at 8am. Who does that?!? They use their power saw's and anything else that makes noise between the hours of of 7am and 1am.  I think it's so damn rude to make all that noise that early and that late at night. There has been many times that I have gone outside and told them to shut that shit down. I work and I love my sleep to damn much to be disturbed all day and all night. Aren't there laws that should prevent this shit from happening?!? Anywhooo, I woke up and watched a little more television and called my mom to see if she was getting ready for church.  I went to church and then I decided to hit the mall and try on some clothing options for this summer. I do a lot of online shopping so it's always smart to go to an actual store and try on things to make sure they look good on you.  The rest of the day was spent over my parents house, talking, laughing and eating good food.  I'm now sitting here watching Housewives of Atlanta, drinking tea and getting ready for bed.

I hope you all have a happy and successful week...and I'll raise my tea cup to hoping next weekend is just as chill as this weekend was!

Until next time~

Friday...Saturday...

This has been a roller-coaster weekend for me so far. I was doing great during most of last week, but late on Friday something happened. Something that knocked me off of balance, I don't know how I let these thoughts get in, but sometimes they slip through the cracks. I don't wish bad luck on anyone, but sometimes these overwhelming thoughts and feelings...scare me, because for a few seconds..for a few minutes, i wish that something horrible would happen to him, or at least I'd like for him to feel even a fraction of the pain that i've been dealing with. That's not the way that I'm supposed to live...those are not the types of thoughts a God fearing person should have. I need to figure out a way to get these feelings of bitterness and resentment out of my heart, because with those two emotions there, i'll never be able to move on, and I realize that. What bothers me the most though is the fact that when I get over it, when I cleanse my soul, when I forget...he comes back and inflicts more pain, and then I'm back to where I started. How do you close the door forever? That's something that I'm figuring out day by day. So, Friday was pretty bad for me, but sometimes all you need is a good cry, and I felt a lot better after I cried my frustrations out. The sun always shines in the morning...right?

Saturday was amazing. I woke up with a new determination to go out get some fresh air and treat myself to a day of doing anything and everything that I wanted to do. I also needed mommy time, because that always makes me feel better. I woke up at 7am and went to get my hair done, because what better way to start off the day than with excellent hair?!? LOL....I finished that and decided to stop by my parents house. My mom was on her way grocery shopping with my brother so I decided to go with her, before my lunch date. I spent a lot of money, but it was good spending some time with them. My lunch date went well too, I enjoy dating and keeping in touch with guys that actually know how to treat a lady. I'm not saying that it's going to go anywhere further, but it's good to date every once in awhile ^^. Saturday night was really good too. I went over to my aunt's house and me and my cousin ordered pizza and we watched Paranormal Activity 1, 2 and 3. I was a little freaked out leaving her house at 1am, but that's just my over active imagination. LOL.

Anyway, I guess that's it. The lesson here is...don't stop moving, even if you slip up one day. Put it behind you and go towards tomorrow with the determination that "today is going to be a better day" Do that and you'll never fail at anything you want to accomplish~

Until next time~

Are You...Refreshed?

Omg...what an awesome weekend I have had! I'm feeling so much better about life in general and it's all thanks to the time I spent with my girls this weekend. Sarah, Marcy, Alicia and Kelly...my girls. We try to get together at least once every month and have what we call a "girls' weekend". We haven't been able to do it in awhile because we have all been so busy, but since I took a break from dance this term...my weekends are free <3 I want to relive every moment of this weekend over, but I know that next weekend is going to be even more awesome because my girls from Japan will be here on Friday. It's my 3 best girl friends from Japan. I met them when I stayed in Japan the summer of 2002 and it was like an instant connection. Emiko, Katsumi and Miyako <3333 I can't wait! These girls know how to party and when we all get together it's pure madness! I love them and it's Miyako's first trip to the States so we're going to make it extra special for her.  I'm spending a week with them...just us girls and then Yuta arrives on December 17th...just in time for Christmas. This holiday season is going to be the best. My house is going to be full of the people that I love...the people that love me unconditionally...flaws and all. My other parents...my best friends from here and my best friends from Japan. How could it not be perfection. Anyway, I'll fill you in on what we do after they get here. I just had to write it here because i'm so excited that they are actually coming to visit me! :) Back to this weekend....
So Friday I worked all day and Kelly called and told me that they had prepared a surprise "girls weekend" for me since I seem to be really down lately. I wasn't excited to go at first because I was tired from work, but I didn't want to be selfish so I agreed. We went to this cute karaoke bar where they serve the best sushi. I have never been anywhere cleaner. The sushi is so fresh, and I haven't found a place like it. We decided to do a private room, but it didn't stay private for long. Some guys who were on their way to their private room, saw Alicia come into our room while Marcy and I were singing and dancing to "Breaka Shaka" lolol....we finished dancing and the hostess came into the room with 4 bottles of sake. She said it was from the guys in room 308. We stared at each other because we didn't know what to do. We decided to accept the sake, but we were curious so we went down to room 308 and thanked the guys for the sake. They wanted to us to stay in their room but since the sake, most of our personal items were in our room and plus we had already started....Kelly decided that we should invite them to our room. The boys agreed and we partied in our room for hours. I exchanged numbers with one of the guys...his name was Jian...his eyes were gorgeous...really...they were bright and looked honest. We left the karaoke bar and decided to go clubbin!
We went to a club inside one of our biggest casinos here and danced and of course had more drinks. Talked to some more guys and just had fun! The cab brought us back to my house and as soon as we hit the door we were stumbling in and tearing off our jackets and shoes and stumbling for any flat surface to lay down on. I made it all the way to my bed, but the other girls didn't make it as far as the guest rooms. I had someone sleep  against the closet, another one sleep on the stairs and another one on the floor by my bed. I'm sure we looked a mess, but it was worth the horrible hangover we had on Saturday!
I would write about Saturday but it was pretty much the same thing...lots of drinking...lots of party and lots of being the social butterflies that we are! I don't expect anyone to have read this far. This entry was basically just for the purpose of looking back on the last few days and realizing how truly blessed I am to have such amazing friends that would do anything to see me smile!
Until next time....Party!
