Dear Livejournal...
It has been a VERY long time since I have posted anything here!!!
There's so much that I want to say/update/comment on but I truly don't know where to even start *lol*.
My life has been a roller-coaster (I like to think that it's turned into one of those loop-dee-loop ones honestly ;P)
but it's getting better, I think.
* * *
Tommy has been out of my life for several months now (Thank God!). I don't feel comfortable in going into full detail about the whole situation but it wasn't a good spot to be in. He was an abuser (in more ways than one) and for a long time, it felt like I would never get out.
But I was able to get out though (and for that, I have to thank my best friend nicole9514 because without her...I seriously don't know what would've happened. She's helped me in so many ways and with her support, friendship, and love, I have been able to find myself again and find inner strength once more and it's something I will never be able to fully repay her for but she's a BAMF, I love her very much and I just want to make a quick shout out to her:
"Nicole, you are my best friend, a serious BAMF and I love you! **HUGS** Thank you for being my friend and for helping me...(and I know it's going to sound weird but in my honest opinion, I feel like you saved my life and I just...I wanted to say...Thank you! :)"
* * *
-As for other things in my life currently, I'm doing better (I think anyway *lol*) I still have some health problems that need to be managed, but I deal with it and feel more optimistic where that is concerned honestly (I still have bad days but I'm also having some good days too so I just kind of focus on that at this point ^_^)
-I've been doing the Wii Fit Yoga and short morning walks for a while now (the Wii Fit has been a few months now, but the walking has only gone on for about a month). I found a park about a mile and a half away from my house that has a track so I just walk up to it and walk the track most mornings (I'm having to take a day off today though because of my health, but aside from that, I really have been enjoying it. It helps my mind get in a better state *especially if I have had a rough night*).
-My internet has been one the fritz since July (and it's an annoying issue *lol*). I wasn't having a lot of issues with it before but I think when we started hitting 100 degree temps and had to use the AC more that that's got something to do with it (like everything's getting overpowered *I live in a mobile home for the record lol so the electrical wiring for things can be rather frustrating sometimes*)...but that's my guess, since it still works (but it's at odd hours *lol*).
And the reason I'm rambling about this is because (thanks to my internet acting like a spaz) I haven't been on the computer much, which is weird sensation for me, to say the least. *lol*
But anyway...
-I'm working on getting my driver's license (*lol*), as well as my GED. There's an orientation class starting next Tuesday for that and I really hope I'll be able to get in this month (I called Friday but didn't get an answer so I'm going to call again Monday). Its got my anxiety kind of...insane right now *lol* but I know it'll work out. As for the driving part...well, it's getting there *lol*. I've studied and done practice tests out the wazoo but it's coming down to the part where you actually need to drive *lol*.
(I'm not sure how many hours they require but I know that I'm suppose to get a certain amount of hours in of actual driving before I can take the test to get my license...*or at least, that's how I'm understanding it*)
So, that's a big focus for next week as well (I've done a little but I'm needing to add more to it, I guess).
-I'm looking for a part time job (but it's going pretty much nowhere, it's a bit of a downer but I'm still applying *lol*. Part of me says that some of the rejections have to do because of the lack of GED (even though I've applied for places that weren't requiring you to have that) and the other part is because of the economy. I'm not giving up though.
-And this is random but I'm very close to having 2 months of no-caffeine under my belt (and yes, it's not a big thing for anyone who isn't me *lol* but considering the fact that I had at least one soda everyday for the last 10 years of my life, and now I'm not drinking (or wanting) any at all is...well it's is an accomplishment to me *lol*.)
And don't get me wrong, I don't dislike sodas now *or caffeine really b/c caffeine still has its merits* but I just...I kind of like the idea that I haven't needed either for almost 2 months now.
I'm quite sure that I'll have another soda or coffee in my life but I doubt it will be a daily thing for me ever again.
-Anyway, that's my life at the moment (all the serious stuff anyway *lol*). As for randomness, I'm into several new fandoms (or well, they are new to me *lol*) and since I haven't been on LJ in a bit, I figured I'd share a couple:
-Avengers/Marvel (I'm personally excited about the upcoming S.H.I.E.L.D. show as well!)
- Doctor Who (still watching and loving it! I'm on Series 3 at the moment ^_^)
-Firefly
-Star Trek
-Vampire Diaries (I have only caught Season One but I am strangely getting very hooked)
-Mass Effect (not a show but a wonderful game series that is honestly an addiction for me *LOL*)
--I'm still a huge fan of Supernatural and I cannot wait till S9!!! :)
* * *
I still plan to check out A LOT more in the future (Legend of the Seeker, Sherlock, Game of Thrones, Downtown Abbey *I hope I spelled that right lol*, and I started watching Merlin years ago so I have thought about checking that one out too at some point but I also need to catch up on the Vampire Diaries (I'm telling you, I'm strangely hooked to this one *lol*)...but yeah, that's what I'm watching/want-to-watch-in-the-near-future *lol*)
As for movies, I'm looking forward to Thor The Dark World (it may be the only movie I attempt at this year that's a midnight release *lol*. It's still a ways away but while I wanna see a lot of other movies, this is the one I'm really excited about and I hope I'll have the funds to see it ^_^).
Sorry that I have been gone so long. My next posts (whenever they come and whenever my internet loves me *lol*) will be more random and less long (hopefully *lol*) but I've been wanting to get back on here (I've just been nervous on how to post/talk about certain things I guess *lol* but here I am ^_^) so...
Hello Livejournal and friends! :)
P.S. The layout for LJ has changed so much since I have been here!
