HellO!
I have been Sooo busy with all kinds of fun things.. and not so fun things..
Making new friends... making colorful swirly crayons... baking cookies and foccacio.. Zoo times.. Children's Museum times.. freak out about the future times... making me want to do even MORE things that I haven't done and find ways to continue doing the things i do like..
Therefore, I have had little time to concentrate when I am browsing the net and looking for fun things to post.
AND
I will be gone to Ecuador for a spell (Saturday March 15-Wednesday March 27)
Wow.. when i actualy write it out it seems like suuuuch a long time!
Yes. I am scared. Yes. I am excited. Yes. I am nervous.
Who knows what will happen? I know wayyy too many things that COULD happen.. but that does not mean that it WILL happen.
Anyway, One last post (i think) before i head out..
AND THEN>
Prepare for many pictures of my travels and stories of my adventures!
:) :) :) :)

Now
The days are running low..
soon i will be out of Tuscaloosa... To Ecuador..
I still cannot imagine myself being out there .. all by myself..
And then after watching movies with all kinds of friends going on adventures together.. I want that. I want that bonding experience that everyone else seems to have had. I try to explain to people.. no one really understands.. I NEVER had anything like that growing up.. and then especially when i got into college.. the first three or so years i was pretty much preoccupied with "issues".. many poeple may have THOUGHT that i was happy or i don't know what they thought. but they did NOT know me.
Now I am finally making connections with poeple.. WANTING to go out.. yearning to explore what the world has to offer and what I have to offer to the world. And sooo soon it will all be taken away and i will have to start all over again.
then soon after that i will be off to North Carolina.. and then what? then where?
My parents are NOT making this easier on me... every time.. every conversation.. "So, these places you are looking at, do they have Health Insurance?" . "You should've gone to Graduate School.." /| \
I don't know what i want to do with my life.
I find that this is a common topic throughout my blogs though. I shall not dwell on it much more.
I will occupy my time with scouring the net for more and more job opportunities that my parents can shoot down .. bring me back to reality that it IS NOT going to work for me.
I need to suspend reality for awhile. esssssscape!

Anyone out there?
I don't know. Probably not...
Anyway
The zoo conference has left me exhausted and tired. sitting down, getting up, talking to poeple, getting worked up about going to Ecuador, sadly rejecting job offers for the summer, staying up late and staying over in Birmingham.
Whirlwinds of crazyness.
Last night I slept at Francesca's house :] We had to go to a dinner/function thing which i was not too impressed with.. PLUS there was BBQ for dinner and lots of people walked aimlessly around.
BUT i did get to go up to the top of the Vulcan!
AND Elvis was there! :] He sang and did his pelvic swivel and soupy singing.
We FINALLY got home to Francesca's and her little Pug, Parker, seemed to take a liking to me. All the whole while i was there, Parker was ALL over me.. giving me kisses, jumping on me, following me.. AND sleeping with me! I felt loved :]
I also met a fun guy from the LA Zoo. He was quite fashionable, the first day i met him, he wore a uber fun Transformer's shit and even sketched out some Transformers for me! :] He was swanky and funky and oh so fun! He made me want to live in California... though i think i may prefer Santa Cruz.
I am also super nervous.excited about Ecuador. I cannot quite believe that i will be leaving a week from tomorrow (Saturday).. wow..
I miss Asheville...
And my summer camp! :) Charlie will come to visit! He won't be blue though.. Some of the old counselors will be there. I am at a better place in my life-mentally, emotionally- so i will be able to jump right in-full throttle, rather than edge in slowly as i did last summer.
