-I thought this song summed up pretty well every emotion I've had in the last two months.
Well hello all three of you reading this!
The last time I blogged was approximately two months ago. To be honest I'm not sure why I haven't since! But here we go. So lets just go through what happened in the last two months: I made some friends, lost some friends, did one of the hardest things i've ever had to do, got a job, went home, went to Pittsburgh, left my heart in Pittsburgh, came back, wrote midterms, wrote papers, did projects, got some tragic news, got some wonderful news, saw a friend, wrote a kick ass song, cheered like a fool, started writing a novel, went home, turned 19, came back, watched hockey and realized how blessed I truly am.
Yup that about summarizes it up!
I will go into detail about a few things: my friends that I have made here are truly wonderful, I am lucky to have met them! And we make pretty great cheerleaders if I do say so myself (ain't that right Wesmen ;) )
Pittsburgh, was the best weekend of my life.. and that would be an understatement. Die hard Pittsburgh Penguins fan right here. And I finally got to see them play live! Not only that but I got a private tour of the arena, including their locker room. I think about it and it still doesn't seem real, it really doesn't! I stood in their locker room and I cried. That was more then any fan can dream of! The pictures of me sitting in all the players spots have won themselves a permanent spot on my bedside table!
On a somber note, I got a highly disturbing phone call on October 31 in the AM. Four girls I went to high school with were in a car accident due to a drunk driver. It breaks my heart that two of the beautiful girls did not survive. This incident has made me appreciate life so much more, because really you just have no idea when life can be over. You have to live everyday like it's your last because you just never know. Too many tears were shed over something that was 100% preventable.
So please everyone DON'T DRINK AND DRIVE. I am going to preach this until I am six feet under, or until the concept of drinking and driving is six feet under.
Life out here has gotten normal. I am finally adjusted to living here! I like it, it isn't home and it wont ever be, but it will do! School is great, I can't say enough positive things about my program! It's lots of work of course but I don't mind doing the work! Also being in a city with an NHL team is also awesome, I haven't since '97 BRING BACK THE JETS! I am taking full advantage of it! After going to see my first game in the Dome on Friday (Blackhawks what the hell happened? Where were you?) I have a new goal in life...To be a Flames ice girl. They do my favorite things in the world, skate and watch hockey, HOW CAN YOU GO WRONG! And they don't dress sluty, so really there is nothing stopping me from applying to be an ice girl next season! The phrase 'dream job' doesn't even sum up how perfect this job is for me! So get ready NHL'ers, I'll be scraping the ice in the Dome next season, just you wait!
So I guess thats it, I wont bore you with every detail of my life, those are the main ones.
I promise it wont be another 2 months before I blog again!
