Then there's work... work... and MORE work. Can't complain about an actual full time job. Especially when I'm getting more responsibility and showing I'm legit and know what I'm doing.
Last night we spent at the Vanguard. We went to see Sander van Doorn, who I've fallen even more in love with after that night. The guys before him, Second Sun, tore the place apart, their energy and set blew my mind... Very quickly became a new favorite of mine. I'm not sure if I've ever had that amazing of a time there.
2 weekends, 2 amazing shows.
Can only get better by... SEEING ARMIN MAY 17TH! I need my Armin fix BAD! How I miss him.
Maybe Tiesto in June too... Yay!
It's so nice to just let go.

Although I had the WORST day yesterday:
Dropped an egg
Dropped about 5 other things
Smashed 1 finger on each hand
Dumped ice out of my cup at dinner
Wore some of my dinner
Hit trash cans while I parked my car
Poked myself in the eye hardcore
It was bad... and I even went to the gym, but survived that. Not sure how... but I did.
Thank the Goddess I have 2 days off... need to recover.
There's also a boy... can't quite read him, but we will see what else develops.

gloomy
Just when everything works out
I have things figured out
When I'm actually happy
I get shot down, back into this reality where my life is nothing but a giant let down.
Betrayed
Appreciated but still walked on
Taken for granted
This week I'm really going to take sometime to recenter and find myself... because I'm lost again.
Happens I guess... so I'll hang out in my dark time and lay low. Keep to myself until I'm stable enough to emerge.
I have to remember that my life is awesome... because there's only a few things keeping me alive right now.

And my week is already full of totally RANDOM shit.
Yesterday I get a text from someone I figured would just delete my number when I turned around... hmm mmm... Mr. Hot stuff from Thanksgiving... it wasn't for me... but I figure... well hot damn he still has my number ;). Tripped me out, TOTALLY wasn't expecting that. I saw it was him and was like holy shit... I don't even care if the text wasn't meant for me HA!
Today... my phone rings... and it's an old number that I haven't seen in forever. So I answer and spend an hour on the phone with Matt... Even talked to his mom, it was actually a really fun conversation, complete with some reminiscing. I would have went over to see him if he brought his BMW Ha! I'm to the point where I can be his friend, part of me will never forgive or forget what he did to me, and I must admit part of me still cares, but I can be civil and a friend, especially after all we've been through and since I have respect for what he's doing for my country in the Army.
I LOVE the randomness that is my life...

I'm really enjoying myself too. Making alot of new friends, going out and seeing alot of new things. Letting go, finally finding myself, not afraid to show people who that is. Growing, changing, evolving. 2008 is proving to be pretty big.

I applied for my passport... another step in the Italy stage of my life. And on the way home... I was behind a semi truck that had ITALIA plastered all over it... talk about irony. I'm taking it as a sign =).

New Years Eve was liberating, Tiesto was mind-blowing. Something clicked that night, and this year is going to be my best yet.
I got the privilege to see Wicked because Emily and Wendy's Dad didn't want to go, so they invited me. There aren't words to explain how amazing that play was. It was my first live musical and I almost cried.
Rounding out the week was a trip to the Vanguard to see ATB, one of my favorite DJs to see live and I haven't seen him in a long time.
There's a boy... yes I know... but with some balls and the help of a friend, we've exchanged numbers and are becoming friends. He works at the local watering hole and I've had a crush since the first time I saw him. Has some baggage... but don't we all? He makes me so giddy smitten it's funny, and gives nice hugs <3.
I'm on a mission to lose more weight before Italy... so more will power and self discipline to reach my goal.
Life is good, and it just keeps getting so much better. I thought 2007 was going to bring a new Rebecca... seems like that was only the beginning.

Hanging out on MySpace, saw that I got a message, thought it would be this guy that ALWAYS sends me msgs, but I finally blew off not 5 minutes before...
Instead it's this girl... who complimented my look, was very nice to me... and also said she likes to live as a girl... I just made a friend with a transvestite... now that's a first.
I'm always up for making new friends =).
She's talking about coming to LA, shopping at MAC, then clubbing and finding some boys... I love it...
Another first that's happened in this whirlwind year...
New Years Eve is going to be the shit... finally have a bunch of people going... I'm so excited.

Ever since Joe has been gone it's like I'm a new person. Rebecca's been reborn. New motivation, and a reason to be motivated... myself. I almost feel bad for thinking that, but I felt so smothered by him, and now I'm free... I'm myself again. It's liberating.
The last few weeks have thrown me for a loop. I've met so many new people and made new friends. I'm totally smitten over one and he actually remembered me from the week before when we partied the day before Thanksgiving... score for me... Check my Thanksgiving pics on myspace... there's one of just me n him... Mmm hmm hello gorgeous! He's one of those one's that knows he's hot though... who cares, I made a friend ;). I'm worth remembering =).
I thank the Goddess everyday for the people put in and are already in my path. I love being kept on my toes, having things happen that blow my mind. Jen and I were talking and I told her life is finally good, and I finally really thought about why it is. Because I've learned to be thankful, for what I have, and for the options I have. I'm not married, but so what, when he comes he comes. I don't really have a career, but I have a steady job and I'm working on something more... I could have no job and no options to move up in the world. I seriously have THE greatest friends on the planet, and I think that helps. Nonetheless... Life is good =)

There's a GORGEOUS trainer at the gym (haha... yeah I know... again) who goes to Schooners on Thursday nights. I knew he had a GF but she wasn't there last night... so when I finally get enough (liquid) courage to talk to him, I even had a "I think you work at the gym" line... he's leaving to get her. Damn! I'm keepin my eye on him though... I'm after him, once she's gone... haha.
So I meet some 22 year old Air Force boy who's REALLY cute... but one of those I doubt I'll hear from again. Meh...
AND I get letters from Joe... all the shit I want/need to hear, but still can't believe. It always sounded too good to be true. I was ok until all that... blah! I hate how he can do that. But I'm continuing to stay strong because I'm too old to wait around. I can't keep sticking around, I've been pushed too far. As much as I'd like to believe he's already changing... I just can't believe it... Oi...
Life is interesting.

Random lame girl moment... And some motivation

chipper
I love Tuesdays... Criss Angel is fucking sexy. I can't help it, he's even hotter in the newer episodes with the shorter hair. He blows my mind too... some of the shit he does... how the Hell do you hypnotize a chicken? WTF? Dear god he's so hot...
Moving on...
I'm really excited to go to Monster Massive and enjoy myself without having to check in every hour. I hate being smothered and irrationally worried about, if I'm not back in the morning then you can worry. Oi... it's like I'm out of a cage.
I'm bringing the Bat Girl costume back... 1) I'm cheap, 2) The booty shorts are for Armin ;).
I'm really trying to get farther at work, working more and making the Manager position. She offered to pay for more school, so I'm looking into a bachelor's in Natural Health... hopefully, I'll probably have a little extra work to do since my Associates is in Photography.
I'm keeping Photography with me too, I know I have an eye for it, and it's such a welcome release from reality to enjoy what the world has to offer me visually. And I know now I can't just wait for someone to find me, gotta get my ass out there. I can only bring so much to me and try so hard while I'm sitting on my ass... doesn't work that way.
I've fallen away from my religion a little too, and I'm finding my way back now. She's brought me back on the path to finding her and myself. It's been a wonderful experience.
Life is good!

Back and better

The Goddess is working in ways to bring me back to myself since I lost it along the way. Made myself into someone I thought I wanted to be. Too bad she had to show me so tragically I was headed in the wrong direction, I just hope the person most directly involved has the wisdom and strength to understand this is what I must do. I've done all I can to help him, and this is the result, he has to have the motivation to be a better person. I'm moving on, I have to.
Too much to look forward to to let myself get down.

Less disapointment that way.
Always a step behind, always 2nd place.
Maybe I don't try hard enough sometimes... and then when I do it's still not worth it.
What am I doing wrong?... Or maybe... What am I not doing at all?
I give up... I know one of these days I'll have everything... but right now I fucking give up.

Sick of getting blamed for the shit that goes on right underneath her nose.
Why should I have to live with a shattered heart and have to have my life ruined... all for the sake of people thinking they know what I need, thinking they know what's actually going on in our lives.
I know I'm not the easiest person to get along with, but alot has changed... for the better.
I can't keep trying to make everyone happy, it's killing me.
It's all about me now.

You haven't been appreciated, and you're not going to take it any more. Just be sure you don't burn any bridges -- at least not until you've crossed them.
It's true. There's too many people in this house and I'm sick of being walked on. Sick of being a pawn in everyone's game. Sick of being called a bitch when I have an opinion. It's fucking ridiculous. When I don't like a situation I just take myself out of it, maybe they'll miss me, maybe they won't, but I'm sure the support I'll get is just money and their opinion, because I get nothing else.
I know it's drastic, but if I don't do something now I'll still be stuck in the same place sticking it out, hoping something good comes out of my loyalty. When my boss told me I'd be working more I didn't want to work Saturdays! STILL getting screwed.
I'm done here.

This is good and bad, because I couldn't be happier, things are changing for the better... for me at least. Keeps things interesting.
I'm entered in a photography contest for Carpinteria... I'll know by the end of July if I'm in the 2008 calendar.
My "Sunset" shot was featured in a deviantArt news journal.
Joe and I are trying to get on our feet. Things are great there.
Life is good.

Strange how things fall into place...
To wake up and see his face was beyond words.
And now I know what was missing with someone else so long ago.
Love is strength and the perfect weakness and vunerability... never a burden.
It's encouragement and where words falter.
It all makes sense now.
I've fallen in love with him over and over again everyday since he's been home. I didn't know that was possible.
wo0t! for birthdays and Ferry Corsten!

I blame that on myself, because I could be doing more. I'm just in a comfort zone.
I really should go back to school and am seriously considering it, CalArts is a good school. I just have to get my portfolio in gear and come up with admission... hello student loans. A Bachelor's degree will look even better than an Associate's. We'll see though... but it's a good option.
I guess I'm just waiting for my break... but I can't do anything sitting on my ass.
There's something more... I just have to work for it.
It will be easier now that I have someone else to motivate me. Someone else to grow with me, as individuals and together.
Everything always works out... I just have to make it through.
2007 = new Rab.

NO strength left

mood:
discontent
I'm so emotionally drained I'm ready to throw in the towel. No matter how positive I am I get absolutely nowhere.
I'm not directly involved in a certain situation and I can't bring myself to be happy about it and it's affecting me.
My ex is now married and it's bothering me too. Maybe I'm upset in a malicious way... wanting him to be as miserable as possible, me wanting the last laugh and rubbing my amazing relationship in his face. Either way... It's bugging me and I hate the fact that it's bugging me. She's stupid enough to marry that cheating son of a bitch. The girlfriend before her was way cuter. Oh well... not my problem... so I dunno why I'm so burnt out on it... FUCK.
Try to kill you but that part of me can never die...
A personal situation is the most draining. I've tried so hard to be strong, to be motivating... but it's zapping whatever sanity I have left. Sometimes it's easier to let the negativity take over. Thank god this is almost over... I didn't know it would hurt so bad. Not everyone would be as loyal as me... especially after such a short time. I've sacrificed so much... and it still doesn't seem like enough... even though I don't even have to sacrifice in the first place. This sucks... I wish I could sleep until it was over... then I wouldn't feel this way, feel angry, and feel bad for feeling this way.
Just shoot me...
