For 8 years, I tried so hard to make the puzzle pieces fit with someone who was not right for me. Now ... in the less than a month, everything feels perfect with you.

I am excited, scared, confused, nervous, hopeful. And I can honestly tell you, I have never felt this way before. And I hope this doesn’t go away any time soon.

Quotes That Remind Me Of Virgo

[agasshiiayah]

You must not try to forcefully erase your wounds. You must embrace, accept and love them. Each of our wounds become a map for each of our own lives. So rather than trying to overcome the wounds, how about trying to embrace them. Because our scars are like a GPS to our lives.

Andy showed me this picture. "You just like the hair," I said. "And the girl." My heart and body are now wobbly live things. This night, I am gloomy from the thought of turdface's presidency, my financial situation, and death. Then I see Andy, and I feel a bit better.

Thanks to everyone who has worked out with me. You all keep it fun. In the last two weeks. I have gone to four gym locations, which is awesome. Today I finally felt my legs getting stronger. Whoo hoo! Go leg days.

The pressure is on.

Dear New Boss(es), 

I do not want to let you down. I hope I don’t let you down. I want you to like me. I hope you like me now. I hope I can prove to you that I am competent. I hope I am component enough to prove to you I am component.

Thank you so much for this opportunity. Thank you so much for choosing me. This means so much to me. 

Sincerely,

The New Intern

When people love people

Dear SpringHill Guests of Anaheim, Thank you so much for being so kind to me.  You don’t know this, but I have no idea what I’m doing with my life. Not sure how to climb the ladder. And I’m still bummed out by not transferring to Residence Inn.  Currently working 40+ hours and 5 days a week, I am here a lot, so you have made my days, my afternoons, my evenings, my nights. Sometimes my eyes will let out a couple tears of happiness.

With all the love I can muster ... Thank you.

I found my soulmate!

It’s Mika. I’ve been watching and listening to him for the last hour. 

And there are two essays. Two essays that I need to write and get done by 5pm tomorrow. It’s about sustainability in the hospitality industry. I like reading about it, but the combination of being lazy and scared that it’s going to suck is making me not want to do it. 

So .... close.

(Pretty sure I’ve reached my year’s capacity for the number of times I said “Fuck.” Threw it around a lot today. Thank you, Meeting Planning final.)

A peek of light. Possibly.

Visiting Terranea was amazing. The name itself is earthy. (Like Bella Terra. Beautiful earth, right?) It was not necessarily due to its luxury. That was nice, but I was fascinated by salt. The chef makes his own salt and flavors it, what? There’s a farm half a mile away. Water is tested to ensure nearby ocean life is hangin’ in there. The machine that irons and folds linens! What?!?!?!?! It was great. The Chief Engineer gave us a tour. And wait. This is my favorite part. Next month, they’re putting in a COMPOSTING BIN, that turns organic material into liquid. I don’t know much about it, but how cool is that? I hope it significantly reduces waste in the environment. I was so excited, I started calling myself the trash queen.  After class, I asked Professor Anderson for his info, so I can learn more about that composting bin - how it works, how effective it is in reducing the landfill, etc. Anderson didn’t have an email to give me, but talked to me more about it. I’m pretty sure he could see how passionate I am about this. I am lost, and I want answers dammit. I want direction to point me in the right path with what I like. I want to go to grad school, but am unsure what major to choose. Today, I can somewhat see it.

Anderson said I am smart and I talk in class, which leads to me having the “ability,” I’m always surprised when people call me “smart” because I don’t think I am. And that’s not to put myself down; I just feel like I am not. But that doesn’t mean I’m not good at other things! I love talking to people. Same thing with speaking up in class. Just because I do it, doesn’t mean the things I say are intelligent.  I AM TOUCHED. That, combined with the artificially flavored caramel iced coffee that I had earlier today, put me in such a good mood.
