It's the little things.

I went to a college friends wedding yesterday and it was so nice to see all of them. I'm bummed I am now just meeting her boyfriend, now husband, as of yesterday. I should have taken more of an effort to actually physically see her. I'm not very good at keeping in touch with people I don't physically see a lot. I start off good then gradually goes down as I get busier and meet new people in my life I see all the time. I do miss the girls though! I also missed out on any pictures with them damn it. All in all it was a simple and really nice wedding. Very much her. The food was great and the music. It was worth driving the three hours for it to NH. I love NH! I wish I lived there. Maine is nice and all if you want to be poor, all the tourists love it because they have money with their summer homes on the cape. I vow to go and visit her because I have Saturdays off now and I could see Corey getting along with her hubby, they have already discovered they both love their ...

WHOOO are YOUU?

and that question can be easily answered by social media. Say you just met someone or you know of someone that you either dislike, want to know more of or someone from way back in school and don't actually talk to that person then social media can help you out. Facebook is harder to use if they make their stuff private but Instagram man if that shit ain't private its very easy to tell what type of person you are and what you well love or obsess over. I found a girl last night from high school, was not in my grade, and she has become obsessed with body building and super dieting like a smoothie for a meal and that's it. I was surprised there. I stumbled upon other peoples as well like a couple of my friends who I didn't know had Instagram and people who HATE ME for no good reason and don't even know anything about me and what I found was EXACTLY what I thought, no surprises there. Sometimes it is just interesting to see people from back in school that you have forgo...

All work and no play

causes injuries. I had to go to the doctors yesterday because my right arm started having muscle spasms near my elbow last week and it got worse and worse then my hand started feeling weak and the pain traveled up to my shoulder. The doctor concluded that I have a strain in my trapezius muscle, she could feel the knots the size of golf balls around there and it definitely hurt when she pushed around that area. My arm is just basically super fatigued and she put me on ibuprofen 600mg three times a day for 5 days to see if that helps. Icing and warming the area as well. If it does not x-rays and steroids and if still not fixed physical therapy and bloodwork to check my electrolytes to see if the spasms are from that. So yay work. The positions I get into and for the length of time I am not surprised I have some sort of injury. I am sure I will get more as the years go on. I am young I will bounce back. In other exciting news I get to dog sit for a friend next week and in August I ge...

Let's Digress

I completely forgot I had another blog after I graduated from college. I used livejournal all the time in high school and I don't think I did too much blogging in college, although I wish I had, but I used that one temporarily because it was under my school email and after things with Anthony I guess I just wanted a fresh blog. I was too busy in college getting my Bachelor of Science Medical Biology degree. Yes I am proud of it I worked really hard. I may not be a doctor but I love the job I have and I feel like I make a difference in animals and clients lives every day. Being a veterinary nurse, which is the new term now, is incredibly hard grueling task you have to know just as much as the veterinarian. You are basically their second brain and have to do most of the work while they do the things we legally cant. Techs can do just about everything except for surgeries but we do dentals all the time. And we can't diagnose but we certainly help the vet get to the diagnosis. When...

Grew a pair.

I have been at my job now for over a year and usually by now you would probably get some sort of raise. I have had two really good reviews since I have been there and yet no raise. I am usually one to just let it go and let things happen. I am not one to go put my foot down and be like look I have improved a lot since I have started and I work really hard and really well so I should have a raise by now. I am in the process of getting licensed so that makes me look even better. My boyfriend has been getting at me to ask for a raise for months and people at work have been too so today I finally grew a pair and sat down with my boss and talked to her. Basically told I've evaluated how I've been doing since I started work there and that I have improved a lot and I work really hard etc and then I asked if I could have a raise. I definitely could have said I deserve a raise or something of that sort but I didn't. She agreed that I do deserve one. And gave me props for coming to...

Time to rethink my life...at 26.

Life seems to be just full of ups and downs, lately it seems to be mostly downs for me. Financially my life has turned upside down and I'm broke, not like I cant afford to go out and have a drink like I  cant afford freaking groceries or my medications. I just switched health care to Obama care because I am off my parents now and it isn't the greatest insurance. It will cost me $150 for my 90 day supply of Crestor which I cant afford so ill have to do 30 month supply for $50 a month. even then still expensive. My parents have decided to cut me off from any more help. Basically I have to sit down with my boss and tell her the situation; I either get a raise so I can stay there and continue my schooling so I can get licensed or if not I have to discontinue school and find a completely different job most likely one I will probably be miserable with. It really sucks. I would hate to stop my schooling, I've been doing so well with it so far and I like learning all kinds of inte...

Beyond $tressed.

Since I graduated college I haven't had great paying jobs and I owe a lot more money than I am getting paid and my parents have always helped me because they cosigned. I pay for two of the loans they pay for 1. I pay for my car, gas, car insurance, phone and now health insurance since I am turning 26 this month, groceries once a week for my boyfriend and I and anything else I need. My parents have helped me with really expensive medical bills this past month from getting my blood drawn and an ultrasound which was $325. I have always been able to pay for my car registration. My school payment went up for Penn Foster since I signed up for Semester 2; $60 to $91.66. This month, for some reason, I do not have enough money to pay my bills and register my car. Id have to pick one or the other. In the real world I would probably have to like sell my body or eggs or something for money but in my world I'm hoping my parents will help. I HATE asking them for help. I'm almost 26 this...
