Long Time Coming
Things are drastically changing in my life right now. Don't know whether I'm happy about it, but I'm definitely not crying. While I won't go into details, I am more than excited to say that I am finally free to find out what I've been missing from life for the last 10+ years. I don't know who or what may have sparked the desire for change, but I can't help but be excited about it. Changing your entire life, I have to say, is scary, but not quite as bad as I imagined it would be. For far too long, I've been dreaming about what could be, and living the nightmare of what was. I have never forgotten who I really am, and I certainly hope that I can quickly recover the real me. I will never again change myself or my beliefs for another person. And I will certainly never again let anyone tell me that I'm not good enough. I don't expect this to be easy, but I find that anything that's worth it, rarely comes easily. Essentially, I will walk away from anything and everything that has kept me from being truly happy for the last decade. I will try. I will succeed. I will find the true happiness that I deserve. A friend has explained to me that there is one very important part of life that I've been missing out on....so, here I go to find it. Who knows, friend, you might just get what you've been asking for.

RANDOM NOTIONS
I love those little bunnies!!! All that sarcasm is good for the soul:)
- Nobody worry, but I think I'm ready to start my next semester already. I am not very good at having extra time....
- Went to the movie gallery this afternoon to rent a movie....FINALLY, they have a copy of Fast and Furious....it's a new movie and they only have like 15 copies...WTF??? I know Bridgeport is not a huge city or anything, but 15 copies? Really people?
- I love those movies....all of them.
- I really need a hair cut/color...i'm only 27 and I found a grey hair!!! NOT COOL!
- I used to think people were crazy when they said that they didn't feel their age...the closer I get to thirty, the more I realize they might have been on to something.
- Hello. My name is KRP and I am addicted to Facebook!
- I don't know what is so fascinating about it......
- Anyone watch Trueblood? I love that show!!! It is quite graphic, but worth it.
- Sometimes I wonder if I am ever going to get out of school. I just changed my major...again...but that was decided mostly to get me out of school faster!

RANDOM NOTIONS
- I am finally back in Leonard...only to return to Bridgeport on Sunday...I think....man, I am tired of being in my tiny little truck.
- I had to come home and start filling out paperwork to get back into A&M-Commerce. I sure hope my GPA is back up to a suitable number. If not...I think I might screeeeeaaaamm.
- Now I just have to request all my transcripts.....normal people have one or two request...I have four!!
- The summer session I just completed kicked my butt....but I am proud to say that I aced astronomy after failing it the first time....again...I hate UNT!!
- I miss being in Bridgeport, but I want to finish school...and I can't seem to keep it together in Bridgeport. So Leonard it is, I guess.
- I emailed the bookstore about when they would be back at the Sulphur Springs Campus to buy back books....they said they weren't coming because they are paying wholesale for them and it wasn't worth it....I wonder if they asked everyone they screwed if that extra 60 or so dollars in their pocket would be worth it...cuz I could have used it....
- Which brings me to this fact....if they are only paying us back wholesale prices, I assume that's what they paid for the book when they ordered it....their website says I am only getting about about thirty dollars per book...I paid 150 for each book....which means they made a 120 profit off each book....what a rip-off
- and they think it's not cost efficient for them to drive an hour to buy back the books....
- Sorry, about that rant...had to do it....
- Well gotta go...phone people are here to bury our line....they're gonna disconnect me for now:)

RANDOM NOTIONS
- We're getting ready for a garage sale this coming weekend. At first, extra money seems like a great idea. But then you start adding up how much work goes into it compared to the pay-off...is it really worth it? I certainly hope so.
- I have a couple of things that I'm going to sell in the sale, but I don't really think I'm gonna make that much money off it.
- I hope I get to go golfing when I go to Bridgeport. It kinda just depends on how much homework I have left to do that week since it will be my last week of school.
- I unpacked the last of my boxes today from the move. I have way too much stuff...I could put it in the garage sale, but I'm not sure anyone else would want it. I could throw it away, but I'm not sure I can make myself do it. I'm not really a pack rat, but there are a few certain things I just can't bring myself to trash.
- I have a 10 page marketing plan due before the 9th of July and I have no idea where to begin. This is one of the downfalls of online classes. If anyone reads this that might have some advice, please help. I'm not real sure what I'm doing.

RANDOM NOTIONS
- Michael Jackson passed away last night. I didn't see that coming. However, I did see a report this morning that said it wasn't quite as unexpected as it seemed.
- VH1 is doing a Michael Jackson Video Tribute. I wasn't exactly a die hard Jackson fan, but he did have a few songs that I liked. I think I liked his videos more than anything.
- This has been a crazy week for deaths in Hollywood. MJ, Farrah Fawcett, Ed McMahon, and I think someone told me Walter Kronkite isn't doing so well.
- My summer classes are kicking my butt. They're intense. I knew that online classes have twice as much work, but I think I forgot to factor in the length of the semester. Since it's a summer session, it's twice the work, crammed into four weeks. Not cool.
- Took my nephew to see Transformers 2 on Wednesday. I'm going to have to go see it again. He's young, so I kind of expected a little bit of talking. But wow, he talked the entire time. And what I didn't expect was the TWO bathroom trips in the middle of all the action sequences. I have taken him to movies before and we didn't have this problem.
- I also think that this Transformer movie was not as appropriate for younger viewers as the first one was. It had much, much more bad language, and as my nephew said, it's much scarier for young kids.
- I almost got up and took him out of the theater. I thought he was going to cry.
- I can't wait until August to see the GI Joe movie. I used to watch the cartoon. I kinda like these cartoon made movies.
- I have been feeling like I've been neglecting my blog. But the last two weeks have been so busy that when I do get a moment at the end of the day, I'm just too beat to try and figure out something to post. And I don't see an end to the madness anytime soon!!
- I'd better get back to my homework, or I'm never gonna get it done.

MISS ME???
It's been a few days since I've even seen a computer, much less had time to sit and type something. We have moved to our house in Leonard, but there is no internet there yet, so I am having to drive once a day back to Sulphur Springs to use the internet for my online classes. It doesn't leave much time for stuff like this blog. So, I promise to start posting again soon. Our internet won't be hooked up until Friday and I am going out of town until Sunday. So, I suppose, it will be Monday before I can really get back into it. I feel like I've been neglecting you guys. I'll catch up...it's a promise.
