Tangent of Thoughts

Soo I haven't posted in over a year. I kinda got into this because Nadia did it all the time too. Well what got me back into this was I was with my besties all weekend and I swear Jael knows the most random information. So I started writing down all the things that I wondered about and whatnot and decided to would be cool to write about it somewhere. Which brings me here.

So anyways this weekend was AMAZING! It was Jael's birthday weekend and so she flew down to Mesa and picked me and Alex up. Yea I said flew. She has her pilots license and her own private plane. So we flew up there, had an awesome girls night of dancing and catching up. Then today we went to the Brewery and ate yummy food and walked around the Dogtober Festival. So much fun! But before we knew it we had to fly back to phx. Jael was telling me that when its hot outside it creates thermals and when we fly through the mountains it creates updrafts and downdrafts. Well we hit one and it scared me hardcore! Poor Alex had been sleeping and that woke her up! Then Jael being the crazy girl she is, does this thing where it put us at 0 gravity for a second.. We all screamed!! From that point on I was praying we landed safe! But it was so awesome to have a bird's eye view of everything. We saw Canyon Lake and Weavers Needle. So amazing!





Other random thoughts I had:
Avocado ranch dressing.
Grind up an avocado in your ranch dressing. Sounds amazing huh? I can't believe I never thought about doing it before. I'm gonna go grocery shopping tomorrow and try it out to see how it is.

The song Purple Haze.. There is the line "Excuse me while I kiss the sky." Well I have heard from someone that it Jimi Hendrix was a homosexual and the line reads "Excuse me while I kiss this guy." I can't find any info on whether its true or not. But its definitely something to ponder.

I wanna learn how to make swimsuits and clothes. We watch Project Runway at work and I swear I think it would be so awesome to just make whatever clothing you wanted. Because doesn't it seem that when you go shopping looking for ONE thing, you find everything but that. So instead you could just make it.. I need to take a sewing class first!

Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
Watch it.
It will put you in a good mood everytime!

Last but not least..
I have decided to go back to school. I'm gonna start slowly and just do my prereqs online since I'm working full time right now.
I am going to get a Bachelor of Science with a concentration in Exercise and Wellness.
Then I will do a Master's Degree in Physical Therapy.
I got inspired to go back to school a couple weeks ago. But I wasn't sure what to study. Then I was watching TV the other day and this kid had broken his neck playing hockey. He had to do rehab to regain basic motor functions. I think it would be so awesome to help people. To help someone walk again. And I don't have to deal with any blood or poop in this part of the medical field. So thats my new goal for the next, oh I'd say 5 years. Wish me luck!

1/2 Best Day Of My Life

SO yesterday I had to take my Written Exam for my hair license yesterday. Let's just say I was a nervous wreck. I went in feeling really confident and totally ready. As I'm taking the exam, I am guessing on like 30 questions. I was feeling all hot and clammy and I seriously thought I was gonna throw up. So I get finished and the proctor guy was like You blew thru that! It only took me twenty minutes. And I'm thinking Crap! that probably means I didn't do so well. Then he says Congratulations to me. And I go "I passed?" He said he wouldn't congratulate me for taking it fast. HAHhahaha so I passed! Halfway done to getting my license. The practical part is going to be easy as pie and then I'll be all done.
So the girls and I decided to go out to eat to celebrate. We decide on Happy Hour at Kona Grill. We were standing around for about fifteen minutes and there were two older men sitting at a table and looking like they would be done pretty soon. So we asked if we could sit with them so we could have their table. I, of course, was seated right between the two men :( One was pretty normal, was visiting from Michigan. His son's best friend just moved to AZ, worked for UofP, drove a Jaguar, and was in the Marines. He was trying to set me up with him but I never followed thru on that. The other guy, however, proceeded to call himself the Devil and was blowing cigar smoke all over my sushi rolls. Yuck! In the end, they bought our dinner which we decided was totally not worth spending our dinner with them.
Seriously one of the most random nights of my life. But I love my girls! Thanks so much for the support!

Where do I belong?


So this weekend it was my parent's 24th wedding anniversary. Still in love as ever! We went up to Torreon in Show Low. Super nice cabin right on a golf course. It was exactly what I needed. Escape the hot, hectic-ness known as 'The Valley'. This was my backyard for two nights....
For some reason, being submersed in nature really makes me think deeply. I was thinking about what I want out of life. What do I want to accomplish, achieve etc. What kind of life do I want my future children to have? Because every choice I make right now is shaping what my future will be. My mom was telling me alot about how it was being first married, having kids and whatnot. I'm sure it was on her mind since it was her anniversary weekend. So it got me thinking. I'm definitely not ready to be married and nowhere near close to that even happening. So where does that put me?

My mom tells me that I have always had a hard time dealing with change and transitions. I just finished school and quit my job. But I can't get my hair license until October. So I'm somewhat job-less(thankfully my parents can employ me for now!) And everyone else is in school and doing that fun stuff. I haven't known what to do with myself lately. SO I've been up in Globe working with my parents. Its weird coming back to a small town. You can't go ANYWHERE without at least 3 people recognizing you. Old friends want to come back into your life. Even old flames try to weasel their way in. I thought I would like being home for awhile because it would get me grounded and centered on what is most important to me. Instead it has really made me realize that I no longer belong here. I've moved on and this place has nothing to offer me anymore. But if I don't belong here, where do I then?

And then it hit me! Right here is where I belong. With these amazing people!

Hello Blogging

So I'm completely new to this whole blogging thing. But it seems everyone has one. Even my own parents do. So I figured I better catch up with the trends and join in.....


Today is Labor Day! And I have a nice big kink in my neck from sleeping on the floor out at the Las Sendas house. I did, however, get a couple of glorious hours of shut-eye in the Tempurpedic bed.. Those beds are AMAZING. I'm so getting one when I get married. Or make big bucks. Whichever one comes first.


Tonight we have a full line-up. Drum roll please.............



Gossip Girl AKA our newfound obsession


Love me some Chase Crawford ♥

One Tree Hill.

We have predictions on what will happen this season

See you all at the Ledge of Love at 7!
