Oh but contrary to the Death Cab song, I do feel different, very different!
It's been a while! I find myself saying that with every new post since they have started to become so few and far between. It's only been a handful of months since my last entry but it already feels like a lifetime ago. A new President, a new year, a new job (sooner then later I hope!), and new friends :)
Congratulations to both Rudy and Mai on their weddings! They were both so beautiful in their own ways, and I'm so happy I got to be there to celebrate your special day. Rudy, if the time comes…you can help plan my wedding any day!
What an amazing time in history to be alive. To one day be able to look back and say I remember the day Barack Obama was elected, will be an amazing story for my kids and grand kids. On the other hand they may just think history is really boring, and hopefully by the time they can comprehend such things the idea of an African American becoming our commander-in-chief will no longer seem like such a big deal....and they will wonder "how was there ever a time where this was not normal". I truly look forward to that.
So I'm back and I'm jobless, what more can I say? ALOT! So although I'm jobless and currently have no cash flow...I'm somewhat enjoying this time. I feel like I'm in college again...sleeping at 3 or 4am (it's 2:15am as I'm typing this) and waking up at noon. If you would have asked me a month ago I would have said it was awesome...now I'm starting to think I'm REALLY over it and ready to get back to a normal life style, a normal schedule, and a normal paycheck! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the few opportunities I have been presented with. I would love nothing more then to get a job this month and magically be able to afford two tickets to see Death Can on April 8th...now that would be a way to celebrate! I also happen to need a new iphone since I cracked my screen when I dropped it this week!!!! At least it's still working (alhamdulilah!) so it could be worse. The sliver lining..it's a new thing I'm trying out ;)
I have spent most of the last two months really reaping the benefits of Netflix. I only wish I had started to use it a long time ago. I can't stop getting hooked on new shows which I have a feeling I will soon come to regret...god knows I already watch enough damn TV! Can I just say that Rudy has it spot on when she says "Entourage is Sex and The City for men" hahaha. I can't get enough of that show! It some how makes me see LA in a whole new light.
It's been way to long. I feel like I have so much to say but want to save it for another day...it gives me a reason to come back and write. I have been so damn lazy, I def need to this to get my brain working again.
Other then watching new T.V shows/movies...I have gotten the chance to catch up on a lot of reading and I love it! Got any good books for me to add to the never ending list? Let me know!
I'm really proud of one said friend. She's what made me want to get on and write today. She's actually the person who makes me want to stop being lazy and start making things happen. It’s inspiring to see someone get out there and do all the things they want to do. Be it starting a band or a new blog..nothing seems to big for this friend. So thank you for what you bring to my life.
I still have things left on my "To Do List" from last May (I SERIOUSLY can not believe it's almost been a year!) and as soon as I get a job I vow to make those things happen. I wish I updated this more often and I think it's time to get on it. Said friend, you know who you are...let's start coming up with blog ideas....I can't wait. But what I really can't wait for is your blog!
So my brain is all over the place, this is a great thing! I'll be posting more..I feel it. Hope you have missed me...and look out b/c it's a new year and it's definitely and new Sarah (yes the old me just might truly be dead and gone)
Reading before bed…this is the life!
