2012 new year's resolutions

i can't believe another year has gone by.
time just keeps passing.
i mean just yesterday it was christmas! omg!

2011 was a bittersweet year for me, there were too many ups and downs, sadness, bad news and stress.
so i hope that 2012 will bring all things
positive in my life.
i'm going to start with a resolution list in no particular order:

1. keep working out and lose weight
2. keep a good paying full time job
3. do 2 things i never would
4. let go of stress and have fun
5. do not return to retail for a job
6. go back to school
7. pay off all my credit cards
8. save money, both chris and i together
9. buy a home or get an apartment
10. take better care of myself
11. be happy or find my happiness
12. spend all holidays with my boyfriend
13. go on 3 amazing vacations
14. volunteer somewhere

i'll probably add more to this list
but this is all i can think of in one sitting.
bring it on 2012!

just waiting...

i feel like something has been missing in my life.
i mean, i have a good job, an amazing boyfriend, a wonderful family, everything.
i do have a good job, but i want to have a job doing something i love,
especially with my artistic craft.
i do have an amazing, loving boyfriend,
but we're falling into a routine that couples do and it's not so amazing.
and i do have an amazing family, but we all are fighting for our dreams and butting heads in the process.
or maybe it's me wanting bigger and better.
but... there's something else.
something i'm waiting for.
i think it's excitement, something new. anything.
i always said i was an average girl with big city dreams.
i know i can reach any dream that i have.
i'm just afraid to fail.
i know i'm asking for a lot,
but i want to be selfish for once.
is it wrong to feel that way? i don't know.
i don't have a lot of money or time. i'm so over this average life that i just deal with because i have to.
all i do know is that
i'm ready to be swept off my feet.
i'm ready for surprise. for now i'm just waiting.

project bling #08

accessorize! accessorize!
here's another project that i worked on!
these are iphone cases that i put bling on.
i saw them online and youtube. i thought, 'i can probably do that, too.'
and yes, that is exactly what i damn well did!
here are some photos:

i bought the cases in bulk online
as well as all the rhinestones.
i used my fingers and tweezers to put the rhinestones on the cases.
and finally i used loctite to glue them on.

insanity

being 23 years old, going through many changes.
i can say that i've always fluctuated with my weight.
now i'm not complaining about my weight or anything.
it's just i can gain weight and lose weight a little too often.
i was pretty satisfied with the way i looked.
i think transitioning to a new job stressed me out and i gained a little again.
instead of crying like a little baby about it, i'll try and work it off.

i'm going to start the workout program insanity tomorrow.
it's like p90x but a bit more fast paced.
the program is 2 months long and i will report my progress in the middle and end of the program.
i've finished the workout before. but not consecutively.
so that's the goal. plus lose weight, again. :P
here are my statistics as of today, 04 december 11.

height - 4'11"
weight = 120lbs

bust = 34
mid-section = 33 1/2
hips/butt = 37

let's hope that 2 months from now all the numbers above will shrink really really low! :)
wish me luck!
