New Joys

So with the change of the seasons comes the beginning of a new chapter in my life. so many wonderful events are taking place that my whole self is filled with happiness and i'm excited for every new corner i turn. The thing is, is that i know things happen for a reason and i believe that for whatever reason things happen the way they do they do happen for a purpose. ack! its just figuring out what that reason is and staying calm till things fit into place. :) well, things have been fitting into place for me lately and its been wonderful!


August, September, October and November have brought a few new surprises that i never would have guessed would of come. for starters, i've buckled down and scheduled to take my national certification for massage and bodywork exam. i will be taking it this friday! wish me luck! i've been studying my brains out and i feel my retention level has dropped %75! panic! pre-jitters im sure. i'm very nervous and unsure about changing jobs at this time with economy in such disarray, that im trying to come up with a good plan so as to stay as stable as possible during these times. maybe keep my job and do massage part time? hmm.... we shall see.

This year i celebrated my 21st birthday! so to celebrate my wonderful friends aubrey and darshiki and i took a weekend trip down to moab to shop, camp and swim. it was a great get away from everything, and the stars were beautiful! at night aubrey and i taught darshiki a few songs and she taught us some from her home in kenya. it was a lot of fun, except for breakfast lol. wanna know, you'll have to ask haha.


oh! and you havent met my little kitty have you? his name is Egypt :) jose and i got him together when he was only a few weeks old. he's soo cute!


this is a picture of him sitting in my lap while i did some scrapbooking. sweetheart! i miss him... he lives with jose and, oh! some more new news on here, jose and i are no longer together. he's a great person but he is not the one i am meant to be with. him and i still work together for the same company and talk, but we have both moved on. he now has a cute girl who i think fits his life style better and i have found a wonderful man who i feel completes me. his name is Brandon A. Williams. he is currently serving as a corporal in the united states marine corp. (im very proud of him) he's been over in iraq for forever now... he is currently on his third and last deployment, which will be over within a few months from now, im so happy! it will be wonderful to have him back home and safe.
(~he's going to kill me for putting this picture up! lol~)


its kinda a funny story behind us, i met brandon a little over a year ago actually. first time i met him he was dressed up in his dress blues when he came to visit his best friend while on leave from iraq... his best friend happened to be jose... yup :) i was dating jose at the time that i met brandon. the first night i met him he dedicated a song to me (very romantic man!) and now, a year later, he rededicated it to me as his girl. now dont think this is messed up, brandon never would try to steal his best friends girlfriend away. it was 6 months later after jose and i had broken up that brandon even mentioned his feelings for me. and even then it was only after brandon had talked to jose and asked for his permission to even try to date me did he make any move.


well, so since then brandon and i have been dating, and he's been wonderful. my heart throb :) brandon, me, jose and his girlfriend monica went on a few double dates just a few weeks ago while brandon was on leave. we had so much fun! we actually met up on halloween where we went bowling and out to dinner at the cheese cake factory mmmm mmm! the next day we went dancing at studio 600. i was so afraid, i dont dance and all three of them seemed to be 10 times more experienced than me! he made me feel like i had talent lol. after a bit of struggling he told me to close my eyes, .... and he danced with me.... this is for anyone who's never tried this before! go dancing and have your partner lead while you close your eyes! it feels so wonderful and almost mystical, everything changes and it feels like flying!

he is such a wonderful person, i really didnt believe there was someone out there that was as wonderful as he is. when he picked me up saturday night i was in such low spirits. to cheer me up not only did he surprise me with a rose, but he took me on a horse drawn carriage ride around temple square and up into the avenues! i cant stay sad around him. less than a week after he left utah i came home to find a large vase of flowers waiting for me in my bedroom! ....he's too nice to me. i dont deserve him. but im glad he loves me! needless to say, anngilee is twitterpaited.....
