I'm done!

You know your done... when it's graduation time! I'm so happy my beautiful family came out to see me some even drove hours. I truly have the best support system ever! We are defiantly not perfect, but we love each other dearly.  I also just found out that I passed my practical! I'm hoping to receive my Esthetic License in the mail soon. This year is all about working to pay off that student loan.

Esthetics love it...

So, you make ask... Did I find my passion? Yes! Yes! Yes, I did! I'm only a few more days from graduating top of my class.... to becoming an Esthetician. I'm over the moon. I love everything that has to do with skin physiology, as well as the beauty side of it. I can talk about it for hours. Right now my goal is to work for a high end salon, and stay with the for as long as possible to learn new techniques and grow within a company. I want to have a stable lifestyle and career.  I'm all business now! I have a planner that I absolutely love.  I purchased with other girls in class. Sometimes we just sit there, and we hold it because we are just so excited to be planning whats to come of our new careers. I defiantly did not come from a financially stable home, but let me tell you! I'm no games when it comes to getting the best for my career. Its strictly business from head to shoes. I want to be the best and soak up as much knowledge as I possible can. So that I have the right education, and understand whats expected of me. I'm still that crazy- fun Latina people love to be around with, but with many priorities, and responsibilities to myself. I'm at a great place in my life! I have a great support system. I want follow this career that I'm completely in love with in see what extraordinary things are to come of it.

The understanding of reality...

Wow! I can't believe that its been over a year since I last posted. Crazy! Life really goes by so fast the older you get. So much has changed I don't even know where to start. I miss the sun tremendously my goodness. I didn't think I would miss it this much, but oh boy! I miss it like an old man misses he's wife when she's gone for good. The upside to that is that I know in the future. I will once again live in paradise. That is a promise to myself expect for this time. I will be a business women and not a girl that was so carefree, and hated to work. All I used to think about before was how I was not going to be part of corporate society and get sucked into brands, tv and 8 - 5 job. I loved what I stood for, and I fell in love with such an amazing man in the process. He inspired me and opened my eyes. To follow a passion something that I love doing. Keeping me grounded all the time. I was scared for he's life because he was a police federally. I dealt with the fear of him not coming home because he's life was on the line everyday he left that front door. After much planning we decided to move to the states. He's first time in the USA. It was not easy a lot of fighting and I mean a lot of fighting happened. He changed everything for me. I expected him to smile, love it, and appreciate me. How selfish of me. A moment of realization came to me when he went back once we decide we needed a break. I realized I needed to be patient, and much more understanding with him this was not only a different country culture, and language, but as well as starting over. He had lived a very comfortable lifestyle, and was respected everywhere he went. To transition from that to general labor. He is so realistic with all of our conversation sometimes I question he's age. He never hides from fear or hard times. He faces them straight on, and I'm there to assist him in pushing thru.  Now its different we talk all the time. I love him for not changing who he is, and dressing like a fifty year old mountain hiker, and  for calling me out when I'm out of line. We have the same dreams. We talk about them constantly. I love it that he doesn't want to change me either. Life is about loving yourself and loving those around you, being surround by positive people that will push you to find your dreams and helping you make them a reality.

Working out to the FULLEST!

Every year for the past years I've been saying I'm going to start working out just like I used to. Recalling back to those times when I used to get up early in the morning or late after school and I’d go jogging with friends or with my sister. We lived in the middle of nowhere so this was easy for us. I don’t every remember doing it because i wanted to be skinny but because i really enjoyed it. Seriously I always have… I’d do it just for fun during my lunch in Middle School. Ever since i can remember I’ve just simply found so much joy in it. The fresh air on my face feeling the warmth of my legs getting tired but my mind not ever allowing them to give out on me because I had to continue all the way to stopping if I needed too. Passing the neighborhood taking in the sight from the houses and trees. If someone was watching me. I would get serious and continue my jog even faster. I did a little bit of everything in High School track and field, soccer, Cheer I even took up softball for a short time.  I miss running around for no reason at all. Living in the City makes it nearly impossible because i hate the gym and Seattle hardly is warm enough or dry enough to jog out on the streets. But this year is the YEAR! I'm going to get a membership and love it! And when it’s not raining - I’ll get up put on my shoes and just go!  I need to release all my energy let the good one circulate and the bad ones!

 This is me currently... I'll post a new pic every month from now till I look completely fit. I'm sort of looking like a box - kind of embarrassing.
