Time for a change.

Many changes are about to occur in my simple life. I will be starting grad school in the middle of August, and while I'm excited, I am nervous about this new venture I am about to take. I will be going for a Masters in Elem Edu, and hopeful to teach Kindergarten or 1st grade. Going to grad school, I also encounter much debt with student loans boo! I just had a transportation chance in my life, I have bought myself my first car. It is a 1994 Mercedes E320 and she is lovely! Her name is Maggie Mae (yes Beatles influenced) and I love her! Brian was a huge help in this decision and I am so grateful that I have him in my life! So there is another debt increase to car loan boo!

An exciting once in a life time opportunity that I will be experiencing on Monday, July 26th is I will be having my dream come true and seeing Paul McCartney perform live before my eyes! If anyone knows me, they know I am obsessed with The Beatles and this is such an exciting event for me! A friend I have in England gave me a security contact that if I find this security guy he will have an All Access Pass for me to go backstage! AHH!! So hopefully I will find him, if not it will still be a surreal experience for me!

I am at a great place in my life currently. I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel of my career, I love my job being a preschool teacher, I have a wonderful boyfriend I care about and he cares about me that I see myself marrying one day and having kids in the future, I have wheels to get around, a dog that is wonderful to come home to, and much music in my life! God has provided so much for me and I am forever thankful to Him. It has been a tough year for me financially, but I have risen above it and I am at peace finally.

I am hoping to find the time to post pictures of Lucy, Maggie Mae (my new car), Brian, etc things in my life soon.

Until next time,
Peace and Love!

My Bucket List

So I have had a Bucket List since I have been in college, and of course it is constantly being added to as I get older. I decided since there are many things I want to do in life I might as well document my list, so I can remember what is on it. In case anyone is wondering what a Bucket List actually is, it is basically a list of things you want to do before you die. Yes I know it sounds depressing, but I view it as a positive thing, so you don't take life for granted!

My Bucket List: (In no particular order)

1. See Paul McCartney live in concert (doing this in July)
2. Run a Half Marathon (check, ran the Country Music Half Marathon in April)
3. Travel to the UK
4. Walk across Abbey Road
5. See Eric Clapton live in concert (check, saw him in February)
6. Get married once to my love
7. Become a mom
8. Graduate from college (check)
9. Graduate with my Masters in Elem Edu
10. Live on the beach
11. Be in NYC on New Years to see the ball drop (check, in 2008)
12. Own a Mini Cooper
13. Go hiking
14. Go to Hawaii
15. Go sailing

This is just a short list and I'm sure to have left some things out, but that is it for now. :)

Peace and <3
