I went to the Philippines from Dec. 15, 2007 - Dec 29, 2007. On Christmas day in the Philippines (which was Christmas Eve here in America) I took a pregnancy test & it was positive! This is the ultrasound I took 2 days ago which shows that I am 5 weeks, 3 days pregnant. It's soo tiny; the size of a grain of rice! Marcus and I are very excited; the due date is 8/31/08.

June.29.07 - iphone release date. My boyfriend and i waited 12 hours for the iPhone to be released. We arrived at the apple store in emeryville at 645 am and they released it at 6pm. We sat there in the cold wind with a blanket and a chair for nearly 12 hrs, but it was definitely well worth it! We have never waited that long for a product before. We passed time by reading books, talking, resting, staring at each other etc....but 6 o clock finally came; we were like part of the first 40 people they let in...but ill continue to blog on my iphone experience later....we gotta return somethin...be back later...
"What goes up, must come down!!......................." Sure your life can be so great at one point but dont expect ur life to stay that way. Things can go wrong at any time... Sometimes u may think u have it all, but in reality everything can come crashing down at any moment. Sometimes I feel that I don't even know myself anymore or what I want or need in my life. Life is confusing and not perfect. Money never buys happiness, Love is not always unconditional, People are not perfect and can do some really shady things. Nothing is ever promised in life. Sure my life can be really worse than it really is, so I guess I have to be thankful for what I have. Sometimes you can feel like your on top of the world and everything in your life is just dandy because you have a good job, a nice boyfriend, a nice car, a nice place, and money; but it doesn't mean that all of that can change in an instant. I've learned a lot in the past 24 hours and I look at life so differently now. I can't expect everything in my life to be great, and expect everything to be perfect in my relationships. I can't live day to day thinking everything is going to be alright, because you just never know. People change, feelings change and theres really not a damn thing you can do about it. Shit happens, and that's just life. I'm learning to accept this. It's hard when you realize that life is like this, but it's the truth. Sometimes its just better to not know the truth about things, just for the better; in order to not get hurt. Every time I get into an argument with someone, the other person always wins. I know an argument is not a game, but seriously I always feel like I'm the one who has done wrong in the relationship;or at least they make me feel that way. Even if its not my fault in the first place, reverse psychology takes place only to kick me in the ass! ...Life is confusing, relationships are confusing, I just don't get it...
"Mission Accomplished~!"...In relation to my last blog, I stated that I had quite a number of goals to accomplish this year. I accomplished all of my goals 6 months earlier than expected. In 2007, I wanted to get a new career as a nurse, a new car, new place and a new guy lol. I am proud to say that I got everything I wanted, but in a different order. First I got my nursing career of course in January, then came the guy, which was really unexepected but he treats me so well, and I'm very happy. Next came the new car...2 months ago in april I got my 2007 Lexus IS250; its a really nice car, and last but not least I got a new place with my boyfriend as of yesterday....So this year has been really fast-paced and overwhelming, but I couldnt be any happier!! =) Life is good...!
