I Am The Songstress

So, lets see where to start.

I never did take that job.  They wanted me to drive way too far for too little $ and it just wasn’t worth it.  So I’m still at the same job.  Ray and I have been working on how to share the car and it’s worked out really well.  The suv is finally paid off!  YAY!!!  *celebrates*

I’ve recently taken up working out with Ray and I’m loving it!  I’m eating a bit more healthy.  It’s nice to get into shape.  I’m not fat or anything, but I’ve never been really active and I’m feeling great now.  I have more energy and well, it’s all positive.  I’m even more proud of myself that I’ve stuck with it.

I’ve been making a lot more friends and life has been busy with work, marriage and hanging out with people.  I haven’t been around as much, but it’s all for good reason.  Although I’ve missed it and will make more of an effort because I want to be here.  ^_^

I’m feeling lazy and hungry so I’ll post again later.

Overview:  Life is good now that I’m living it.  ^_^

Yet another overdue post.  Sorry to be away so much everyone.  Also, I can’t log into the site.  Seems my user name is invalid?!  o.O   *shrugs*

Sigh  -_-,

I have been so wrapped up in life and I feel like I haven’t really gotten anywhere.  I have been busy with work and trying to find a new job and not to mention, my trip back to Michigan for a wedding.

It was great to go home and spend time with family and friends.  It was hectic though and since I’ve gotten back, I’ve been sorta drained and fighting off some sinus something or another.  Overall weak, tired, headaches and sneezing galore.  Ah!  The wonders of travel.  :P  It was all worth it though.  I’m finally feeling better but I’ll admit I’m stressed.

I was so excited when I received a job opportunity with a merchandising company and now I feel so disheartened…  I want out of my present job so badly and the company that offered me a job would be great to work for only I have a few problems that keep me from taking said job.

1)  I never did have an interview via phone like I was supposed to (I HATE when ppl just assume and go, OK you’re hired ^_^  but I won’t explain things to you)

2) Said manager who hired me without really telling or making sure that I want this hasn’t contacted me when they said they would.

3) I still have not gotten answers to my questions and they are important questions.

4) The details were never really given to me.

5) One person says, yeah!  working local to your area will be no problem, said manager won’t reply to that question.

6) Presumptuous company is offering me jobs that are by no means local.  I’m talking them wanting me to drive to a place that takes over 2 hours alone just to get there, work 8 hours and take another 2 to drive home.  Ummm…NO!  The better $ they’re offering me will all go to gas and there goes my entire life…need I say more?

7) Just one more thing dealing with the last, it is a problem because we share 1 car and no way will that work!  >.<

It just sucks and I’m not sure what to do.  We will be looking for a second vehicle to ease on the stress, but even then with gas prices the way they are…would this job be worth it?  Sorry this is such an unhappy blog but I really needed to let it all out and maybe some opinions and advice would be nice. At least I decided not to get into the reasons why I want out of the job I’m in.  I like you all too much to keep going on.

I do have 3 self employment ideas…but I’m just not so sure yet.  I’ll write about those next time.

Life in a nutshell…ready?! It’s gonna be fast. XD

Sakura-Con was tons of fun! I had a great time and got some pics too. We’re planning to attend again next year. That will be awesome. I posted the pics on my ringo account. If anyone wants to see em.

So, yesterday was my 22nd birthday. Thanks so much  X  for the b-day wishes.  ^_^   I had a great day!  Ray and I went out to Seattle for the Voltaire concert.  It was amazing! I got to get Voltaire’s autograph and everything! It was definitly the best birthday ever and I won’t forget it!  I’m just still kinda tired today.  Well worth the drive and being sleepy for though.
Today is also a different kind of special day.  Most of you may not believe, but today is mine and Ray’s second year anniversary.  (ahhh…wedded bliss)  We had originally planned to get married on the same day as my birthday, but due to Easter weekend that year, it ended up having to be on the 15th.  We had limited options since that was the only week the Navy would let him come home to have the ceremony.  It’s still really cool though!  I need to figure out something special for him.

*ponders*

I’ll think of something.  In the mean time though, I really need to eat and shower. 

I’m excited that I sound out about this Convention being held in Seattle.  Hubby and I will be going and cosplaying of course.  ^_^  I’ll be dressed as Lenne from Final Fantasy X-2 and Ray will be Roy Mustang from FMA.  Will anyone else be attending this?

So, an update on life is in order.  I guess.  :P  I’ve been pretty busy with work and all.  Typical really.  I agreed to help someone with their Senior Project by agreeing to sing in it for them.  It’s alright I guess.  I love to sing and all…but I don’t feel like she’s really thought this all the way through and I try and message her questions that are important and get no response.  It’s kinda annoying and well….rude.  I’m being nice enough to take time out to do this for her.  The lease I expect in return is proper communication.  -_-;  Anyways…..enough on that!

Well I told you all how I got my cat Diva recently.  Well, she hasn’t been spayed yet and it’s…..you guessed it!  MATING SEASON!  Oh gosh is it ever starting to get on my nerves though.  I mean, she’s really funny and all running about the house like a nut.  She’s taken on purring like she’s a vibrator or something.  It’s hilarious.  Also, she does this yowling that’s crazy funny!  The noises she makes are so hilarious.  Just…..not at night when we’re trying to sleep.  As cute as she is, all this is starting to irritate hubby and I both.  It’s way excessive and just won’t stop.  T.T  I’m calling the vet today to find out how much it will cost to get done and hopefully get her fixed up soon.

Not much new with me as of late.  I’ve just been spending time with my hubby, friends and working a lot!  I really do mean a lot.  It feels like I practically live there!  -_-;  It’s not so bad though since the paychecks are a bit nicer now.  At least I can still keep up with it all.  I try to keep a healthy mix between the hubby work and friends.  Sometimes it’s hard to make time for it all though.  I’m hoping things will slow down soon.  They probably won’t, but it would be nice.

We have a new pet too!  A little kitty.  She’s the sweetest thing ever.  She just needed some time to adjust to her new home.  We decided to name her Diva.  Believe me, it suit her!  LOL  She’s very silly and keeps us laughing all the time.

I can’t wait until June!  That’s when I’ll be going back home for my best friend’s wedding and also to see family and friends.  I’m pretty excited about that.  ^_^  We’ll be going for close to a week I think.  It’s been over a year and I miss everyone so much!  There’s so much I’ll be wanting to do.  I just hope we’ll get to do most of it.

I find myself in a strange mood today.  I’m not sure exactly why….but I have an idea.  Things keep happening all around me.  Not to me, but to people I know here…and to friends and family that are all far away.  I know that things don’t always stay the same.  Changes are good and I wonder….if I should be doing something more.

I have a small dream.  I’m not even sure if I can really call it a dream yet.  Over the past few years, I’ve had several people ask if I teach music.  I do not…but…I’ve been asked, will you?  I don’t know.  I know enough about music.  I can easily say with no hesitation that music is my passion in life.  I’ve studied for years…..  Is that enough to teach though?  There’s so many questions I have.  I do hate my job and I would love to teach piano from my own home.  So, why am I holding back?  I just wonder if I could really meet the expectations of an instructor….

I guess I need to do some more thinking on that one…..also, I had been planning on dropping off the Internet for the most part.  I just feel I’m wasting almost too much time.   I’m sure I’ll keep up on my blog for a bit.  If and when it’s considered “legally dead”,  go ahead and erase it….if I don’t do that myself first ^_~

The Honeymoon was more then fantastic!  I had a great time aside from getting a mild sunburn.  :P  I put up all the pics on my myspace page  ~ myspace.com/vampiric_pixi

We spent a lot of time driving around to enjoy the landscape and playing at the beach.  We also spent a day up at Mt. Haleakala.  We of course went to a super cool luau.  It’s nice to be home, but I wish we could have stayed longer.

And I’m not talking about New Years.  Ray and I will finally be taking our Honeymoon Jan.3rd thru the 7th.  We’ll be going to Maui!  I really can’t wait.  This is long awaited and well deserved.  At least those of you who have talked to me about this know about is.  With the whole, got married and 3 days later he left for a 7.5 month deployment, got home, moved me here, got setteled for a few months and he left again for another 6 months dealie.  :P  Neither of us can wait!  I promise to take lots of pictures and will share them with you all.
