Through Thick and Thin


Carlsbad Beach "The Wall"
     As I get older, I realize that my trust and loyalty with people seems to go down and my vulnerability and isolation goes up. I have made friends, lost friends and I have put up a wall that a lot of people do when they have been hurt or hurt others. One friend that I have made and had the priveledge of being estranged from then reuiniting on a few occasions over the past few years is Cindy Fowles. The reason I say I have had the priveledge of being estranged and reuniting is that I can truely say our friendship has gone through the fire ...on more than one occasion and we have a friendship now, that feels sturdy and a bond that isn't paper thin. I feel like we have so many similarities but, we also have strong differences which seem to be what make our friendship so colorful and solid. We understand each others differences. I don't feel it was always that way. We had to go through a lot of arguments, resentments and other "ments" before reaching this place of common understanding but, we are here and I am so thankful for Cindy and our friendship.
Cupcake Love :)
A couple days ago, I got to spend a couple hours with Cindy. Going to Starbucks, lunch, the beach, and having cupcakes together:) Thank you Cindy for your friendship and accepting my faults instead of pointing them out and sticking with me through this sometimes lonely and painful life.  

A Disney Blast from the Past! 3D Edition!

      The first movie I ever saw in movie theater was Beauty and the Beast. The first lunch box I remember having was Beauty and the Beast and I have even looked online and tried to buy the lunch box again for sentimental reasons. Now, I just found out that Beauty and the Beast is back in the theater and in 3D! It has been a while since I have been so eager to see a movie.

College Bound

     I got my Palomar College parking pass in the mail today! Just another step closer to beginning my college career. After scheduling then rescheduling appointments for assesment tests and meetings with counselors for years, I have completed both those tasks, signed up for classes (Introduction to Art and Digital Camera), paid for enrollment and I will begin my journey on January 17! One small step for man, one HUGE leap for this girl!!!
