For the First Time

Today, mainly do to fairly recent events in my life, I have decided to fast... Christ has commanded us to do this, and I have never done it. I have thought about it, but never fully went through with it. I woke up this morning and decided that I would start today. I am unsure as to how long I will fast, hopefully enough to get answers or insight as into my path. I have also started to read the Psalms. I think the worst part about it isn't the food, yes, I am hungry and only have allowed myself some water. I can't help but feel that I'm out in a snow storm. my hands feel like ice, and though it is fall, it is technically not warm clothes weather... I pray that God gives me strength during this time and enough energy to keep up with my responsibilities.

Ch Ch Ch Changes

I really doubt anyone reads this thing. But yet I still fill the screen with ramblings.

In the last week or so my life has changed quite a bit. A week ago I broke up with my boyfriend, decided I needed to focus on other things, and get a job so I can move and have a place of my own, thus becoming a true grown up once again. So far the job searching has been a dead end, but I'm staying optimistic by looking at future housing for myself and dreaming of silly things. I will continue to apply and send out my resume in hopes to find something that will get me somewhere. I am mainly looking here in Long Beach, but going to open up the possibility of moving back to Flagstaff. I loved it there and could see myself living there for the rest of my life, but income in these times and in a town that always had low employment rates, it seem near impossible. Long Beach and neighboring cities wouldn't be so bad, I would be close to my parents and such, I just hope I find something to fill my pockets enough to have a decent roof over my head. 

Vacation= Doing Very Little

I rode the train down to San Diego Wednesday night to get some quality time with my siblings and a bit of a break. With Monday being a holiday and having class only on Mondays/Wednesdays I southside for a whole week. So far day one was full of rushing Brian to work, shopping, lunch, office tour, and more shopping and jamba juice. Did you know they do happy hour at jamba juice, free upgrade to power size. I ended up making that my dinner. Waking up this morning, after trying to sleep in, I can't help but feel exhausted. Maybe I slept too long, or just my body isn't used to the rush rush we had yesterday. I had fun nonetheless. I have done very little today, mainly waiting for my sister to arrive home. Watched a DVD, did some dishes, and played with the quail.

I guess all I can do is try to relax and enjoy it.
