I never understood why people would complain about all of the things that their boyfriend/girlfriend do to annoy them, I would just think, Well, then why are you dating them? Now…….now I understand. It’s one of those, I really care about you but right now I’d like to punch you in the balls, kind of things.

“And I do believe it’s true that there are roads left in both of our shoes, and if this silence takes you then I hope it takes me too. So brown eyes I hold you near, cause you’re the only song I want to hear, a melody softly soaring through my atmosphere.”
— Needless to say its been quite some time since this has been updated, but what can I say, I’ve been pretty busy enjoying my life. :)
Let’s see, since the last time I wrote autumn quarter finished up, it didn’t go quite the way I was hoping but thats okay. I worked at Victoria’s Secret for the holiday season and it was okay too, nothing special really, I only worked about 4 times. Literally. I probably made $200 working there, but it was an experience.
On Thanksgiving I met a lot of Brad’s family and that was really nice. Ali and Jared came to visit for Christmas, but I only got to see her a few times. I had a really wonderful Christmas with my family, I spend Christmas Eve and morning with them, and I went to Brad’s aunt and uncle’s house in Bonney Lake for Christmas dinner and met more of his family.
New Year’s Eve this year was my favorite day of the entire year. It was my brother’s 18th birthday, so we went out to lunch at Olive Garden and talked about when he was a baby. Then I went over to Brad’s house before making the rounds to all of his friend’s houses. We went to Dylan’s first, who is very nice and I’d met once before. Then we went to Dallas’s, who I’ve grown to like very much since meeting him. We were there at midnight and I had my first New Years kiss.
Right after midnight Brad and I went out on Dallas’s porch to see some of the fireworks people were lighting, and while we were out there he told me that he loved me for the very first time. So yes, it was the most amazing thing, and perfectly timed, if I do say so. :)
Then we went to Nathan Ramos’s house, and Pam was there and I was so happy to see her, and two people that I went to high school with were there too, as well as Tor who’s back from England for the holidays. He’s such a good person, I enjoy being around him.
It was around 4am when we finally made it back to Brad’s house and I was completely exhausted and slept until 1pm. We spent New Years day trying to decide if we actually wanted to get out of bed, and when we decided that we did it was after 4pm, and we went to this Chinese place called Good Wok and ate some delicious food, and went back to his house and watched some Dexter episodes.
Tomorrow school starts again, and I’m really looking forward to my classes. And on Tuesday I start my new job, which is actually at school in the student store! It sells drinks and snack foods and notebooks and pens and stuff like that, and I just work the register and stock things on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 12-5.
2011 is off to a very good start.

I went to the emergency room today because I haven’t been feeling like myself lately, and with the previous experiences I’ve had with that feeling, I thought it best to go and see someone. I’ve been having anxiety attacks for years, I think my first one might have been in the 8th grade, but as I get older they get worse and worse. Actually, for the first half of this year I really didn’t have any problems with them. I mean, they would happen, but they’d go away after a few minutes and didn’t affect whatever else I was doing.
But in the past couple weeks they have effected other parts of my life and its really inconvient and irritating and I’d like for it to stop. So I went to the ER today, and the doctor was really nice and he said he was going to give me medicine to hold me over until Monday when I can go see my regular doctor, and that medicine is Ativan. When he said that I kind of laughed, because of course the first thing that pops into my head is “don’t say no to pills, Ativan won’t kill”, but he probably thought I was weird.
Just FYI: Everything in my life is going great, there’s not anything bad making these anxiety attacks happen, they just do, and that’s what makes them so annoying. GRRRRRRRRRR

CUTEST THING IVE EVER SEEN.
I was sick all this past week (well, Monday-Friday), so I didn’t go to school at all, but luckily Friday I felt well enough to go to work (oh, did I tell you I work at Victoria’s Secret now? Pshhhh Forever 21 was horrible, VS for life. Well, at least the holidays)
After work Brad and I went and saw The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets Nest, which is the last movie in the Swedish ‘Millenuim’ series, and it was amazing. And yesterday I went over for his house for what I thought would be a couple hours, because he was going to hang out with his friend that was back home from Pullman this weekend, but I ended up staying there for about 10 hours. We didn’t even go anywhere until about 11:30 at night to get milkshakes, but that was it. I can just say that it was a really enjoyable night, I love being around Brad, even if we don’t do anythingggggg.
But yes, I started working at Victoria’s Secret last week and so far I really like it. This store is so organized and as only about 25 people working there, so its 1000x better than Forever 21, which was ridiculous. I don’t work at all this week, but next week I’m getting trained for the holiday rush, so that should be interesting.

Coco’s favorite place to lay: anywhere on Brad.
I guess you could say we had our first fight this weekend, although there wasn’t an actual argument. We just didn’t speak to each other for an entire 20 minute car ride from his friend’s house back to mine, so that was tons of fun. But once we got to my house, we basically talked it out without having to argue first, and then by the morning everything was fine.
Since the beginning of football season, Brad has stayed the night at my house on Saturday and watched football all day Sunday every single week (except for one when I was working), and it’s pretty nice to have that to look forward to at the end of the week.
Pam and I went costume shopping today, and it was very successful. She’s going to be a sexy referee, and I’m going to be a 1920’s lady. Orginally Brad and I were going to be Snooki and The Situation, but for me to really do the Snooki costume I’d have to be orange or else it wouldn’t make sense, and I’m just not that dedicated. So now he’s going to be an old-school gangster man and I’m a fancy flapper-looking girl. Pam and her roommates are having a Halloween party on Saturday, it should be pretty awesome.

School started last Wednesday and so far I really like all of my classes. On Mondays and Wednesdays I have the History of Philosophy, and Tuesdays and Thursdays I have World History II and North American Regions (which is focusing on the Mississppi Valley region).
Forever 21 is going to be opening up this Saturday and I’m sure that’s going to be insaneeeeeeee. We’ve been setting up the store over the past week (although I’ve only worked 2 days), and its an absolutley beautiful store. I wonder how long it’ll stay that way.
But yes, somehow I managed to have Friday night and all of Saturday and Sunday off work, and I spent my weekend with my favorite boy of all time. Friday we didn’t do anything, literally, I took a nap at his house for like 2 hours after work, but Saturday night we went to his friend Dallas’s house for some girl’s birthday party. I kind of had a mini-panic attack when we got there because there was probably 20-25 people there and I didn’t know any of them, mostly girls (you know how girls are), and I wanted to leave, but Brad convinced me to stay and I’m happy he did. Everyone was really nice and it ended up being pretty fun for the most part. Then Sunday morning we got up semi-early and had breakfats at Denny’s and came over to my house to watch some football with my parents and we had a nice steak dinner.
After dinner I was taking a shower and when I came out of my bathroom this is what I happened upon. Brad was on my lovely pink laptop snuggling up with Coco. This is why I’m crazy about him.

The last two weeks I have been incredibly busy, I’m happy they’re done with. Work has been good, but its getting pretty ridiculous. There are so many people that need to be trained to go to the Tacoma store when it opens (hopefully October 9), but for some reason they’re all being scheduled at the same times and us people who have already been trained literally have nothing to do. Call me crazy, but when I go to work I actually want to have something to do. But Friday SHOULD (crossing my fingers) be my first payday, hopefully nothing goes wrong with that.
Other than working I’ve been hanging out with Brad a lot and our relationship is going wonderfully. I wouldn’t say that I’m in love just yet, but I can definitley see that happening in the not-too-distant future. I guess right now I’m falling in love and I’m stupidly happy about it.

“Don’t want nobody, nobody, ‘cause baby, it’s you.” I also really like the sha-la-la-la-la’s in this song. Good job, Beatles.
So last Friday I got a call from Forever 21 and I got hired there! I was quite surprised, but totally thrilled. Today was orientation and tomorrow is my first day of training at Southcenter. I work tomorrow, Friday, and Saturday, then have Sunday and Monday off, then work Tuesday through Saturday. So in the next 10 days I work 64 hours! I haven’t worked that much…..maybe ever. I might die, but it’ll be a really good paycheck before school starts.
Brad starts going back to school tomorrow, although he doesn’t know yet if he’s still eligible to get financial aid, and it’s really going to suck if he isn’t, so I’ve been praying like crazy that he can keep getting the same aid he’s been getting. He’s so close to being done with his Associate’s its not even funny, I’m just really praying that everything works out okay, he deserves it more than anyone. Once I get my first paycheck I’m going to take him out for a nice steak dinner.

Pam came over tonight and ate dinner with my parents and I and hung out for a little while, because she’s my best friend and she can do that, but mainly because I didn’t want to be sitting at home by myself wondering what’s going on with Brad tonight. Pathetic, oh yes, I’m aware. But tonight is his best friend’s birthday, and while he’s a really good friend to Brad, I am not a member of his fan club. He’s a good guy or whatever, but he has some pretty bad (and illegal) habits and likes to hook up with random chicks, so I honestly think it’s really not that pyscho of me to be thinking about what’s going on at his house while Brad is there.
Its not really fair to Brad, because he’s never even come close to giving me a reason not to trust him, and I know why I’m like this. He’s about 7 feet tall and lied to me about 90% of the time sounds came out of his mouth. Again, not Brad’s fault, but its what I’m used to.
If I had been more observant and not so ridiculous I could have been with Brad a long time ago and skipped all of the nonsense. But it is what it is (what a horrible saying), and thankfully I have my mom and Pam and Ali to tell all of this to so Brad doesn’t have to be subjected to my insanity. Well, them and this blog. Sorry.
I’m happy Pam came over though, we drank some Bahama Mamas and watched movies, so it was a good night.

“True love ain’t that hard to find, not that either one of us will ever know. Would you lay here for a while? Please, do not let me go. Please, do not let me go.”
— Yes, its true that I only have one Ryan Adams album, but I kind of feel like its all I need.
Is it normal to have basically everything you want, but still sit and wonder about things that could have been? I feel like thats a really selfish and ungrateful thing to do. Anyways…….
