Long Time No Talk!

I haven't had a journal since way back in high school. Now that I am 22 and feel that I have better things to talk about than I did back then. Let's see where should I start?! Well, how bout I start with my new life after a big move!

I have taken off a few years from school after deciding the field I was going into I had no life and would never have a life! I was dating a guy for almost 2 years and had moved from San Angelo, TX to Corpus Christi, TX. Let's just say the town wasn't for me and shortly after moving back to SA, I realized the guy wasn't for me either!

About 2 months after being back in SA, I still had this Ex who wasn't really an Ex if you know what I mean? Well, I get a phone call from my sister asking me a VERY important question. See she had just moved to Cape Cod, Massachusetts and couldn't find a day car for my 2-year-old nephew. She offered me an apartment off her house, to pay for the entire move, my food, hotels, and the flight of my passenger back to Texas. Then would pay me to watch my nephew Mon-Fri!

Seriously....who would say no right?!?! Well, Amber and I packed up all my things and I headed out the end of September. It was a roller coaster getting here but the best roller coaster of my life!! Things here were hard and difficult at first. It's a very different place from Texas. I'm used to the country life and all our Texas Country now being called Red Dirt Country.

I also now have a second job as a server at Uno Chicago Grill! I've been there for over 3 months...I still haven't made friends that I associate with outside of work except for one person, but I am hoping for that to change soon.

I'll never forget the first day I saw his BEAUTIFUL smile as he was looking right at me! Keep in mind I am still suffering from the heart that had been broken in a million pieces! But, no matter what I said this beautiful smiling face made all the right moves at all the right times and totally put my heart back together. He makes me the happiest person on earth. Not to mention he has an accent to die for because he is from Brazil. Beautiful country that I hope to visit someday!

Two days ago was my 22nd birthday! &*& I KNOW I KNOW I am not old...but for some reason I do feel a bit old. It was the best birthday yet! Douglas, oh yeah that's my love's name, went to Boston and had a grand ol' time just walking around with each other. Then the next day was my party!!! Just when I thought he couldn't surprise me anymore...he tells me he's going to store to get some toothpaste and comes back with a knock on the front door! I open it and here he is with this ice cream cake and a BIG 22 candle lit singing happy birthday!

I couldn't be happier with my life...granted I do miss my family and friends back home in Texas. But, I do think it is going to be a while before I visit home again! Well, this turned out to be extremely long I will update again hopefully tomorrow if I get a chance!

Thanks for listening!
