Its the little things in life that make life so beautiful. Like a group of amazing friends hanging out all day at the beach. The water. The sun. The sand. Drinking. Eating. Sun-bathing. Playing football and volleyball. I don't think I'll ever need a ton of money, a fancy house,a fancy car or wealth to be happy. Yesterday reminded me of how lucky I am to have the people I have around me. And as long as I continue to have amazing friends and family around me I will be a blessed girl.
Yesterday we went to grand beach. 
There was us four girls and about 12 guy friends.
Life really couldn't have been more grand.
beachin and brawlin... literally.

| Sometimes I think I could move to Vancouver... |
[Sep. 3rd, 2009|05:41 pm] |
All my friends are going there. I miss them. My best friend leaves in 4 weeks. What am I going to do without her? I was supposed to move there in May. I think I could move there. Then I remember why I didn't move there, in May, as was planned. I could never afford it. If I'm always broke in winnipeg, what makes me think I could ever afford to live in Vancouver?
I was doing well with saving money...'was' being the key word.
Today I got paid. After paying all the many bills I have, I had 208$ to last me for two weeks. Awful. But I could manage on that. No problem. Then my dog's ear started bleeding. Took her to the vet...181$ later I find out she has a severe ear infection. Poor girl. Poor me. I now have 27$ to last me till payday. FML
The upside: I'm so glad my San Diego/Vancouver trip from Oct 2-Oct 18th are fully paid for. :) |

However far away I will always love you
However long I stay I will always love you
Whatever words I say I will always love you
I will always love you |

HAPPY 7th BIRTHDAY AMELIE LORELEI! I can't believe She's already 7 years old. It seems like just yesterday I was 18 years old and couldn't wait to pick up my puppy. The very beginning of my livejournal actually talks about me getting her. How funny.
I was 18 years old when I got her.
Baby Amelie
Wasn't she a cutie?
Amelie with her siblings and mom and dad.
She is female # 2.
my baby princess.
My lovely all grown up! <3
always and forever.... <3

It was beautiful out today; +25 at least. It was the perfect day for a ride. I went on a three hour trail ride with 8 other people. I got to ride Tia. It was the first time I had really ridden in months. I missed riding. I missed her. I also missed the weird conversations that are started on horseback. We rode through fields of alfalfa, around bales of hay, through ponds filled with ducks, geese and comorants. There were ducklings in those ponds. Its almost the end of August. Its late in the season for there to be tiny ducklings...maybe this means we'll have a longer summer? If not, those little ducklings better grow up fast so they can fly away before -50 hits us. Sometimes I feel like one of those little ducklings. |

| Being 25 |
[Aug. 3rd, 2009|04:33 pm] |
When you turned 25 was it as big a deal for you as it was for me? I didn't think I would feel any different when I turned 25, just like all my other birthdays before... I was wrong. I suddenly felt so old.
Lately I've done alot of things that are out of character for me. I find myself caring less and less. I don't know how to explain it. I don't regret the things I've done at all; I just continuously surprise myself. I'm not going to write about those things I've done but suffice to say the past few months have been strange...
On a different topic...two weeks ago I rescued a beautiful black lab. She's 2 1/2 years old and I named her Moira. I don't plan on keeping her, although I've grown extremely attached to her these past two weeks. I've taken her everywhere with me. She's an all around amazing dog. She comes to work with me even. On thursday I drove down to minneapolis with my friend Carlie and Moira. I brought Moira to meet the family I used to nanny for 8 years ago. Their black lab died years ago and I thought they would love her. I think they are going to come and pick her up 2-3 weeks from now, if all goes well. So right now I have 3 dogs. Moira is terrified of stairs, she goes down them but refuses to go up them. I decided to work on this with her so I took her to the forks where there are stairs everywhere. We jogged up and down the stairs alot and she has gotten a bit better although she still isn't keen on going up the stairs, its so bizzare. This dog absolutely loves water.
I took her down to the river and we just sat there for a long time. The two of us. It was serene. I hadn't done that in a long time. Just sat down and relaxed. Man I love summer.
Yesterday I worked the Blink 182 concert. It was fun. I felt like I was 16 all over again. |

| my 20's |
[Jul. 16th, 2009|06:40 pm] |
so I haven't updated this thing in forever. I write most of my stories in an actual diary that I keep by my bed. Its pink and has a puppy on it. It's almost full. I have three pages to fill and then its time to start another one. I enjoy starting new ones, it feels like I'm starting over again. I probably have up to 10 full books now. I have no idea what I'll do with them. I enjoy looking back on them though and seeing how far I've come.
I hate winnipeg. Summer here has been ok. Nothing spectacular has happened so far and I'm hoping that'll change soon. I might be going to Singapore, maybe India. For now I do know for sure that I'm going to San Diego in October. Fun, but not far enough. Spain's 'running with the bulls 2009' in Pamplona has just ended. I wish I went. I want to go to Spain and run with the bulls. I think in 2010 I'll finally do it.
I've been saving. I have no idea what for. I can never decide between school and travel. I'm torn.
What do I do?
I see some of my friends married, settled down and with babies. Sometimes 2% of me wants that. I envy their comfort. Then I have weekends like I did July long and I remember that being single and responsibility free is the way to be at 25. I don't get it. What is the rush? Why is everyone getting married and having babies in their 20's? We have the rest of our lives to do that. Why waste our twenties being stuck at home putting children to bed. Don't get me wrong, if thats a choice you made, then great! Good for you! I'm happy for you! Some of my best friends have made that decision and they couldn't be happier. It just isn't for me at this time; thats what my 30's are for.
Being major responsibility free has its advantages. I went to country fest two weeks ago. It was a very last minute decision. I wasn't going to go. Then I realised that I won't be young for the rest of my life. I'm only 25. Now is my time to have fun and party. Now is my time to make irresponsible decisions. Who knows when I won't be able to make them anymore.
I love being able to take off whenever I choose. I am enjoying my freedom. I live for spontaneity.
