Hey Everyone!

I'm currently listening to Come Round Soon by Sara Bareilles.

I'm dancing around my bedroom and singing my heart out. It is one of my favorite things to do. I am by no means the next American Idol, but I don't care. It is such a relaxing thing for me. It washes all of the bad things away and leaves me calm and happy.

I am anxiously waiting Saturday to be here. I want it to be now. I am so excited. You should be too.

My old Job

Hey Everyone!

I'm currently listening to The Remedy by Jason Mraz.

So, I obviously had to quit my job to move. Well, I quit my job about two months ago as well [the move that didn't happen]. I thankfully got my job back once the move didn't happen. I was very thankful of this. Unfortunately, will my issues inside of my house, I am forced to move. This time it isn't about my choices. I am happy, I am excited, but it is also a bitter way to do things. And I'm just talking with my family here. However, I had to quit my job once again. Something that was so hard for me to do the first time. I knew that I could not go through that again. I also knew my boss was out of town so left with one of two options, I went with the one that made more sense to me, emailing her. A voice mail would be too short. I wrote and rewrote the email, I wanted it to be perfect. Finally I got it to say what I wanted it to. I was nervous and wanted my sadness to be conveyed. I didn't want my boss thinking this was something that I wanted.

However, in the response that I got back, my boss was obviously upset. Which is understandable. However, she also said some things in the email that were blatantly not true. Perhaps the one coworker who I do not like has told her things, perhaps she just wants to blame me for things as an easy way out. I do not know, and I do not care to speculate. The job was wonderful and I had a fantastic time when I worked there. However I am saddened to say that two months ruined two years of a possibly great reference. I understand her desire to focus on the now, but the past two months have been hard in my house. I explained that in the email, but she brushed it off, making comment about work ethic.

I was offended by this. However, more so than my offense that I took about my work ethic from my boss, is the response that it got from a friend. Twin is upset. I'm not sure if it is about her finding out I was moving from my blog, or something else. It hurts to say that this perhaps is the straw. Our fragile friendship was moving in the right direction, but her lack of response to certain things and the tone that is in what she does choose to write to me is clear of the fact that something is not right. It is sad.

However, no matter how saddened I am by the responses I have gotten from the people associated with my job, I am extremely excited.

Closer

Hey Everyone.

I am currently watching Lost.

I woke up this morning and looked around my room and realized that I would not be waking up to the cool blue walls for much longer. My room is no longer my room. I am in transit. I am not welcome. I am a guest in what used to be my home. I am moving in with Sky on Saturday. This isn't the way we wanted this to happen, but both of us are excited about it.

I am excited about getting there and cleaning. Cleaning calms me. I am excited to just be with Sky. It isn't a trip, it is together. I am scared and excited. More so excited though. We've talked about a lot of things. Mundane things that make me so excited.

I look around my house now and realize that it isn't my home anymore. It is sad. I'm not about to say that it has really set in yet, but it has a little bit. Strange...

Looking Forward

Hey Everyone!

I'm currently listening to Sexy Bitch by David Guetta [For my english class!].

I am so sorry that I have not blogged in a while. Sky was in for a visit and school and work take up so much time. But I am blogging now. :) So please forgive me. :-P I had a bit of a hard time last night. I cried because I missed Sky. A lot of things just washed over me. I think it was good though, because I didn't cry as much after Sky left as I usually do. I had all of these pent up emotions that hadn't come out. Sky is really the best boyfriend ever. I called him in the middle of the night, crying. He woke up and attended to me. Seriously, the best boyfriend ever.

I am looking forward to the next time he is in though. Super excited. We will either be seeing each other either at the end of October or the early-mid November. Either way I am looking forward to a couple things. I want to sleep next to him again. I want to kiss him again. I want to hold hands with him again. I want to see the way his smile starts in his eyes before it travels down to his mouth. I want to kiss my favorite freckle of his. I want to feel his arms around me again. I want to feel safe in his embrace. I want to feel the breath of his whisper in my ear. I want to hear his voice and being able to feel him at the same time. I want a lot. I want all of him.

Sing it With Meeeeeeeeeeee

Hey Everyone!

I'm currently listening to Already Gone by Kelly Clarkson.

One thing about me that my friends and family are sure to tell you right off the bat about me, is that I love to sing. Off-pitch, but without shame. This isn't about my horrendous renditions of "Ain't no Mountain High Enough", this is about how as humans we have moved music into our lives.

Whenever I am sad, I throw on Kate Nash's "The Nicest Thing". Whenever I am mad, I throw on Three Days Grace's "I Hate [everything about you]". My mood dictates what I can stand listening to. Which is why my IPOD has over 10,000 songs. I need music to go about my daily activities. Right now, I'm listening to Kelly Clarkson's "I do not Hook up" while writing this blog. Which can be quite distracting because I want to stand up and dance around as I belt out the lyrics, but I will somehow stop myself. I listen to my favorite "driving music" whenever I am in the car. [I recommend Billy Idol's "Rebel Yell"] I listen to dance music and oldies when I am cooking, such as The Partridge Family's "I think I love you". Every activity that I do has a soundtrack.

I find that most of my friends are the same way. When did music integrate into our daily lives? IPOD headphones are now normal to be seen in offices, walking down the streets, and in classrooms. Music has infiltrated our lives to the point where our bosses think nothing of tapping our shoulders to let us know they need something because we are absorbed in "Right Round" by Flo Rida.

Everywhere I go I see headphones and people listening to their own soundtracks. Does this hinder our interactions with the people around us? Are we forsaking our interpersonal development for the "relationship" between us and our music?
