BESTIES FOREVER!!!!

Ok, so something pretty amazing happened to me yesterday. I met my favoritist artist and got to see her perform live! It was, well, amazing!

Jason bought the tickets and surprised me on my birthday with them and I've been pretty freakin' excited for about a month now waiting for the day I got to see her perform. She was great, and her opening act The Guggenhiem Grotto wasn't too shabby either. My only complaint, too many chatty lesbians. Listen, I have nothing against those who kiss chics and whats not, but seriously, be polite, and shut the eff up! I do not care how much you love this song, nor do I want to hear about how you think of your ex every time you hear it. I'm here to hear her, not you Chatty Kathy!

All in all, great show. Not to mention due to my inherent awkwardness I wasn't going to stay after to meet Ingrid, but Jason convinced me to and I'm pretty stoked that I did. She's funny, she likes sweet potato fries and we take pictures like we're besties so in my mind, I just made a new best friend. Not a bad night, not bad at all.

365 Project(ish)

Ok so I forgot about this project... not gonna lie. So here are a few pictures of my birthday. Mostly nothing much has happened since that lovely day but I'll give you the highlights.

I've taken 2 tests in my anatomy class and have A's on both.

I was on set for the film "in the long run" that Ben Dewhurst is in the process of making. Here's the website if you want to learn more: www.inthelongrunfilm.com

I also have received A's on both tests in my other class Life Span Development.

Started my observation hours for my grad school application. So far I really like the hospital setting as opposed to the nursing home setting.

Decided that when I move into an apartment all by myself in December I'm getting my first doggie!! :)

OH! And the Colts won on my birthday so that was pretty sweet considering their record so far...

OK! Pictures!

Ally and Jason made me dinner and a cake for my birthday

News

Life is full of new things that get mixed in with the old. My life hasn't changed much since I last posted. I'm still working on my pre-requisite classes to get into the grad school for Occupational Therapy at IUPUI, I'm still living in Indianapolis, still with the same amazing wonderful guy and I am still working at that retirement home.

My life is relatively stagnant from the outside looking in, but as you all know life moves on even if sometimes you don't. For example, I have a new computer (very exciting for me), I've decided that if I had enough money my design aesthetic for my apartment would be a country chic with some modern clean lines. My job, although still in the same building has changed and reverted back and changed again throughout the year.

I getting ready to turn 25 this month and it got me thinking... what do I want this year to be like? I know it should be full of happiness, but I'm sure I'll have some disappointments. I know that if it is anything like last year then I'll survive but I can't remember all the little things that happened this past year that made me happy. The big things stand out of course but the little things are what make the day to day a little more bearable. So, to document my year in the age of 25 I will be doing a project I heard of from a friend of mine.

For everyday I am 25 years old I will take a picture of something that represents that day and post it here. I'll give a little explanation and then as my year ends when I turn 26 I can look back and remember the little things, and the big things.

Memories...

Hey everyone! Does anyone remember when I was going to start using this blog as a place to share thoughts and funny jokes or anecdotes? If not look at the blog directly below this one.

I have failed in my mission to write more, share my thoughts and feelings and to generally be an awesome blogger. I apologize to all who were looking forward to the insight into my brain. To all my fans out there I have an announcement to make...

... i will probably not be blogging everyday. However, I do promise to start working on some material again. Due to the inspiration of my wonderful boyfriend I have started writing a journal and with that I will share some of my better entries. Give it time and you too will learn things about life you never thought I thought.
