| Writer's Block: Instant attraction |
[09 Nov 2009|09:18am] |
Sometimes, there's that instant spark; sometimes, there isn't. There's nothing wrong or right about either way, it's just different. I wasn't very gung-ho about my husband for the first couple dates, but the attraction and interest developed.

| Writer's Block: Forgive and forget? |
[26 Oct 2009|08:35pm] |
Yeah, I tend to hold grudges. I try to be a better person and forgive, but it's difficult. If someone wants to earn my trust back, they need need to show with their actions, not just pretty words, that they're sincere. They also need to take responsibility for what they've done - nothing's worse than saying "I'm sorry, BUT..." and trying to blame it on something or someone else. Just admit that you were wrong, that it was your fault, that you did something bad.
Also, I don't necessarily believe in "forgiving and forgetting." Forgiving, yes; forgetting, no. I think if you forget, and act like it never happened, you may open yourself up to it happening again. It depends on the situation, though, which leads me into...
As far as an actual situation - I had an ex that treated me very poorly, not to mention cheating on me with anything in a skirt. He would apologize but try to make it seem like it wasn't his fault. Several times, he blamed it on the other girl for being a "slut." Classy, huh? There were many other cruel things he did; I won't go into detail, but I can say that there is nothing he could do to win back my friendship and trust. I've forgiven him and moved on, but I haven't forgotten, and I have no interest in associating with that kind of person.

I haven't updated this journal in AGES, I've just been using it for communities, but I figure that I needed to post something as important as this... I'm engaged! June 18th, baby. Woo hoo!

Heath Ledger, because in high school me and my best friend had the hugest crush on him. It was sort of like a childhood memory destroyed... we hadn't spoken to each other in ages, but the day he died, my friend called me up and we reminisced.

I got to go to a major league soccer game yesterday, Real Salt Lake vs New York Red Bulls. Tons of fun!
I look like a villain with that scratch by my face... I was trying to open the blinds and the whole thing came crashing down on me!

Cyrus was supposed to meet me at the pool at noon on Wednesday. He never showed up, and never called to explain why. I texted him that night and asked, and he simply said "I got sick" and that was pretty much the end of it. When is an appropriate time to contact him again? I don't want to be pushy, but I'm afraid he won't text back. :( I think he's going to Idaho next week, but I only know that from his Facebook, he never mentioned it to me. I think it's with some girl, too, which is upsetting...

I picked my username for two reasons. Blue is my favorite color, plus it's derived from a quote in my favorite movie, Interview With the Vampire.
"And what sunrises, seen as the human eye could never see them: silver at first, then, as the years progressed, in tones of purple, red, and my long lost blue."

| I want to camp! |
[28 Jul 2008|11:09pm] |
I have the next three days off and I'd love to go camping, maybe down to Arizona or something - but my roomies are all like "no, nah, not interested, I'd rather sit around and waste every single day at the pool working on my tan, blah blah." And I don't feel comfortable camping alone.
Crap, now I'm going to be bored the next three days. There are museums, hikes, parks, etc, but my roomies never want to go. I know I can just go on my own, but it's not as fun.

You know how a week ago, I posted and was kind of depressed that my roomies all had dates and guys hitting on them, but I didn't?
Well, that situation is remedied. :D
I sat next to this guy at The Dark Knight and we talked for the half hour before the movie started. He was hot, and seemed really interesting, and asked for my number when it was over. We went out on Monday evening, then all day Thursday, and kissed last night.
Go me, go me!

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD.
The Dark Knight was AMAZING.
I CANNOT GET OVER THE AWESOMENESS.
Seriously, I was just blown away. I was riveted to my seat the entire time, and now I can't stop thinking about it, and I desperately want to go again...
Unfortunately, my lame-ass roomies were all like "omg it was sooo dark and scary!!!1!" and wouldn't discuss it with me. Instead, they insisted on watching Enchanted when we came home to cheer themselves up, and singing at the top of their lungs. D:

| So irritated |
[08 Jun 2008|01:06am] |
I get so irrationally angry sometimes. Like now - I got a new eye prescription and pair of glasses, and my mother picked them up for me. And somehow, they're wrong! I think the eye doctor gave me an incorrect prescription, because these are way too strong. I had problems with my contact lenses, too, I had to open like three pairs and switch them all around.
Now I've got to start the whole process again. I have to set up yet another appointment, find the time to do it, go all the way down to the base, try to get refunds, and wait a week for another set of glasses and hope they're the right ones.
I really wanted them to just be right the first time, you know? I feel like nothing ever is for me.

I've been musing over a haircut for months now. And I finally went ahead and did it! I am no longer a "long hair," heh. I'm thrilled with the result, though.
( AFTER! )

| Writer's Block: Whose part would you play? |
[22 May 2008|11:57am] |
Probably as Rose on Doctor Who. She was such a cool character, and it seems like a lot of fun! I bet it was brilliant being on Doctor Who. I also might've enjoyed being Beth on Moonlight, even though I might not have played her very well...

| Moonlight's been cancelled |

MOONLIGHT'S BEEN CANCELLED! Fucking CBS. Fuck them, the bastards, they're wasting a perfectly good show because it's not getting as many ratings as American Idol or some shit. I'm sick of the stupid crime shows and sex dramas and reality shows, Moonlight was one of the only good things on TV! I'm pissed as hell.

| Writer's Block: Pick an era, any era |
[11 May 2008|11:10pm] |
Probably the 1950s. It seemed like such an era of happiness and hope. Everyone was bouncing back from the war, there were new families and new inventions and everything was fresh and revitalized. I'm interested in many eras, especially the Tudor and Victoran periods, but I wouldn't actually want to live in them!

| Hooray! |

Well, I've got good news - I'm moving to Utah this summer! I was getting so sick of Alaska, so I decided it was time for a change. I applied to this one really-easy-to-get-into college, got accepted, so now I'm tranferring. I'm thrilled! I really couldn't be happier, it's going to be great.
However, I'm less-than-happy with my parents. They keep trying to insist that I do everything their way. I've laid out a general idea of when and how I want to get down there, but they keep making new suggestions and acting as if they're the ones making all the plans. Even when I've said I wanted to do a certain thing, they act as if I never spoke. When I get frustrated about it and try to explain how I'd prefer to do things, they get pissy and try to blackmail me or threaten me. Ugh, I'm so tired of it.
