A special gift from a special friend!

A few days ago I received a package from one of my dear friends Amle. A pair of beautiful earrings she made just for me.

I want to share a picture of them with you.

Thank you again my friend!

Please Welcome My New Baby!

As of 15 May 2010 I have my own brand new car!

A 2010 Honda Civic DX-G in Neutron Blue. It’s a standard!

It feels so good not being dependent on someone. Especially if that someone takes advantage of that fact.

He has not taken the news very well and *punished* me with silence. Good...you might say...at least he's leaving you alone. But silence can be so hurtful sometimes. I am not sure how you feel about that.

It has been a roller coaster ride of emotions with him ever since I made it official we are no longer a couple.

I am desperately trying to find a place to live. I also don't want to rush into anything...but the pressure is on!

Hopefully, my next post will be about my new place to live! :)

A Promise To Myself

Never ever will I give up my life for someone else again...There is too much hurt and too many obstacles involved.

Basically, I have to start all over yet again. Geez, I just did that 3 years ago. To be honest: it would be my 4th time...What is wrong with me?

I had finally a life for myself established in the USA but wasn't happy with where I was in my job and I had no friends. I sensed an opportunity to start all new..until I realized it is just not working...

So here I am again....I have no credit history which means I cannot get a car without a co-signer. I have nobody here to even ask. I have no references to rent certain apartments, since the rental agreement was never in my name as well.

I just feel like throwing everything away and go back to Germany. I'm sure it isn't any easier there, but at least I have my family...

I am hopeless...angry...upset...confused...stuck!

Truths For Mature People

• I think part of a best friend’s job should be to immediately clear your computer history if you die.


• Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you’re wrong.


• I totally take back all those times I didn’t want to nap when I was younger.


• There is great need for a sarcasm font.


• How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?


• Was learning cursive really necessary?


• Map Quest really needs to start their directions on # 5. I’m pretty sure I know how to get out of my neighborhood.


• Obituaries would be a lot more interesting if they told you how the person died.


• I can’t remember the last time I wasn’t at least kind of tired.


• Bad decisions make good stories.


• You never know when it will strike, but there comes a moment at work when you know that you just aren’t going to do anything productive for the rest of the day.


• Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don’t want to have to restart my collection…again.


• I’m always slightly terrified when I exit out of Word and it asks me if I want to save any changes to my ten-page technical report that I swear I did not make any changes to.


• “Do not machine wash or tumble dry” means I will never wash this – ever.


• I hate when I just miss a call by the last ring (Hello? Hello? Damn it!), but when I immediately call back, it rings nine times and goes to voice mail. What did you do after I didn’t answer? Drop the phone and run away?


• I hate leaving my house confident and looking good and then not seeing anyone of importance the entire day. What a waste.


• I keep some people’s phone numbers in my phone just so I know not to answer when they call.


• I think the freezer deserves a light as well.


• I disagree with Kay Jewelers. I would bet on any given Friday or Saturday night more kisses begin with Miller Lite than Kay.


• I wish Google Maps had an “Avoid Ghetto” routing option.


• Sometimes, I’ll watch a movie that I watched when I was younger and suddenly realize I had no idea what the heck was going on when I first saw it.


• I would rather try to carry 10 over-loaded plastic bags in each hand than take 2 trips to bring my groceries in.


• The only time I look forward to a red light is when I’m trying to finish a text.


• I have a hard time deciphering the fine line between boredom and hunger.


• How many times is it appropriate to say “What?” before you just nod and smile because you still didn’t hear or understand a word they said?


• I love the sense of camaraderie when an entire line of cars team up to prevent a jerk from cutting in at the front. Stay strong, brothers and sisters!


• Shirts get dirty. Underwear gets dirty. Pants? Pants never get dirty, and you can wear them forever.


• Is it just me or do high school kids get dumber & dumber every year?


• There’s no worse feeling than that millisecond you’re sure you are going to die after leaning your chair back a little too far.


• As a driver I hate pedestrians, and as a pedestrian I hate drivers, but no matter what the mode of transportation, I always hate bicyclists.


• Sometimes I’ll look down at my watch 3 consecutive times and still not know what time it is.


• Even under ideal conditions people have trouble locating their car keys in a pocket, finding their cell phone, and Pinning the Tail on the Donkey – but I’d bet my ass everyone can find and push the snooze button from 3 feet away, in about 1.7 seconds, eyes closed, first time, every time!

Please feel free to add to that list!! :D

And The Award Goes To...

Today I received the  Honest Scrap award from my dear friend Amle I am asked to reveal 10 random things about myself. I have only come up with 8 so far… :P

So let's see:

• I am afraid of balloons and that they might pop. If I see someone blow up a balloon, I will run for cover!

• I love amusement park rides. You will find me on the craziest ones!
• Believe it or not, I have a Boston accent from my time when I lived in Connecticut. *Want some coaffee?*
• I cannot wear contacts. If I did, I'd still have to wear glasses.
• I love the color red but hardly ever wear it.
• I am a huge fan of Shania Twain. I even went to visit her museum up in her hometown Timmins, Ontario.
• I love cheese. I am addicted to cheese. I’d die without cheese (maybe not quite, but it sounded good)…
• I cannot drink anything warm first thing in the morning. Usually it is a glass of ice cold sparkling water.

This photo makes me so happy. Perhaps, because it reminds me of myself when I was a little child!

My blog has permanently moved

Here is my new blog address :)

Choices

There are always two choices...Two paths to take...One is easy...And its only reward is that it's easy...

I have finally made a choice. I am in the process of looking for an apartment. This time for real. No more procrastinating.

The big bang happened on Friday after yet another argument. Some not so nice things were said, which made me come to realize: I have to do this now or it will never stop. That evening I went to the bank to open my own account and had my name removed from the joint one. My cellphone is only in my name now. I also bought some storage boxes for what little I possess. I was going to stay at a hotel but he was kind enough to offer me to stay until I found a place. Lots of money is being saved! I do got myself a rental car though so I can look for a place to live. It would be kind of hard to do that by bus....

I am scared, confused. My mind is numb. The past few days I have been living in a daze. i don't know where to start and what to look for. I cannot afford a full apartment which is not furnished. That means I will be looking to rent a room in someone's house. What a scary thought that is!

I have also been thinking of putting up my own ad...

I need your help!! What should I watch out for? What is reasonable to ask for? Any ideas are more than welcome. You can e-mail me at: NorthernLight Is Moving

Words Of Wisdom

"When all the trees have been cut down,

when all the animals have been hunted,

when all the waters are polluted, when all the air is unsafe to breathe,

only then will you discover you cannot eat money."

-Cree Prophecy

Native American ~ Words of Wisdom

Courage

Go Forward With Courage

When you are in doubt, be still, and wait;

when doubt no longer exists for you,

then go forward with courage.

So long as mists envelop you, be still;

be still until the sunlight pours through

and dispels the mists - as it surely will.

Then act with courage.

Ponca Chief White Eagle (1800's to 1914)
