i'm going to TRY
to make a post here almost every day.
God, what's been going on in my life?
I've had the same job at the pool since August of 2013, so it'll be two years this summer. It's been an amazing experience for me, hanging out with kids and meeting some of the coolest little people I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. I've become so close with some of my students and I feel so incredibly lucky that I've gotten the chance to understand and communicate with kids -- it's brought me closer to my own desire for kids and it's also been an incredible leadership opportunity for me, ever since I was made the Aquatic Director last spring/summer. Being a trainer and manager was what I was made for, I think, and I'm so happy I was given the chance. I know, eventually, I'll have to move on, and it's going to be hard -- but I'm glad I've had this chance.
Ugh, what else? Boy. A boy. A boy who lives far away most of the year. I definitely made a post about going to Tucson on here back in the summer of 2013, and that was when we kind of hooked up and rekindled things and such. It's been a rollercoaster ride of emotion, and I wouldn't wish it on anyone, but I don't regret it. He's crazy awesome, super cute, and very driven. All my favorite things!
I had originally moved to a different LJ to do icons, but let's just be real -- I suck at making LJ icons. You'll probably see some here from time to time, but yeah, I suck at it. I tried to be good at it, but it's not my jam. So I'll just keep writing fic like you know how I do. You've probably seen the letters I've written up for some fic exchanges I'm participating in. I'm also doing an apocalypse big bang and, eventually, the Mass Effect Big Bang should get it together some time. I'd love to participate, if only to spread around my weird background shipping nonsense.
Have I made resolutions for this year? Kind of? I want to watch more anime, finish some I never did. I want to write more journal entries, if only for myself. I want to continue losing weight, possibly get down to a size six in jeans. I want to train for a marathon. I want to really put a dent in this second degree program. I want to move out, but hey. Can't have everything.
