| So today I decided to blog. It's Valentine's Day, so happy day to all of you, single or taken! I don't think people should be bummed today, it's just another day, and I happen to have a decent day all in all. I am exhausted, but happy all around I suppose. I've been having some very deep discussions recently, and I don't know if they've made me feel more on track, or more behind schedule in my life, but they've definitely put me in some sort of mood.Oh well, such is life, I'm sure that I'll never be 100% sure of where I'm going in life, but I'm doing my best, and hopefully it will all work out. So since my last post...I got fired, got the best job known to man, started the best, and craziest semester yet, and am officially living on my own. The Texas Fashion Collection job is more than I could have ever hoped to stumble upon, and I find it completely thrilling and wonderful. Tomorrow I am going to be spending the day in downtown Dallas, and helping by doing whatever I can to set up a show. I know, right? Exactly what I hope to be doing until the end of time hah! I love everything about it, even if I do just catalog all the time. The most mundane tasks at the job are amazing ones, because I get to stare at clothes and learn all sorts of amazing things. Truly spectacular. I have starting making these amazing art cakes with my besties, Ashley, Marianne, and Katie, and it's become a crazy good passion. It is definitely a labor of love, because it drives me crazy 1/2 the time, but I love it. Currently, I am trying to make a cake on my own, because Ashley is out of town, Marianne busy, and Katie with her hubby, and am a bit worried. It's this really cool spooky/trippy tree that's hopefully going to be about a foot or so tall. Who knows, it could totally rock. Plus, it's the first cake we're getting paid for and I definitely can't wait for that part! Basically, despite my occasional whininess, I am enjoying life, and looking forward to all the fun surprises around the corner. And, in my usual fashion, stay tuned at the bottom of this post for photos from the last 8 months that I didn't update during!!
 21st birthday drink!
 Cousins at Thanksgiving, I love my family!!
 This is me and my beautiful new cousin at Spence and Em's wedding. Great times, great family, I love the West Coast!!

| so, i guess its time to update. umm..its finals time, one down, two ta go. school has been kicking my ass, but I've never worked so hard before. I hope my grades reflect it!! So basically just been working, schooling, and hanging out with friends...Sarah and I got our apartment a week ago, which is fun, even without furniture I love it. HUGE freaking kitchen too! If you want, I'll cook for you :) haha, anyway...so life is being a little weird to me lately. As much as I hate to admit it, I let my guard down and am acting a damn fool. I'm not really so sure why I feel the need to look like a moron 4 days in a row, but I guess since life has been boring it's what I need to do. Thank God it's almost summer and I don't have to worry about it. Whatev. I just got a call from work saying I don't have to go in...::Does Dance:: EXCITEMENT!!! I'm making some tasty tasty cupcakes to celebrate the awesome that is not going into work, having extra study time, etc. Well...I've lost my enthusiasm for this post just like I've lost my hope on this crush. All in all, I need this week to end so that I don't go insane and kill all of you :)
much love
L
ps-i cant wait for austin with amy, I can't wait to see whoever else wants to play in austin, i cant wait to see lauren, i miss my parents, i wanna see my brother, and i want a real bed! i love all of you!!!

| So I think I'm going to start writing in here a bit more often. I tried doing that whole myspace blog thing, but feel just a little silly. Life is good, bad, and all of the above. Classes are kicking my ass and are never going to stop. I don't know if I ever will graduate, but if I do, Washington(or possibly Oregon) here I come! Let's see, where to begin with how life is going. This semester is almost halfway gone, and then I'll be 1/2 way done with undergrad, theoretically. I got a new roommate. We're not soulmates, that's for sure. I am just happy that in a few months, I'll have a room to myself, and a kitchen, and a home, a real one. Sarah and I have been looking, for those of you who haven't heard all that drama. It will be great once we get it all decided. Let's just say I can't freaking wait. I've lost 17 lbs for those of you who keep track of that sort of thing. I'm finally beginning to be able to tell, so that's great. Almost 1/2 way there. Jarod and I are no more, but that's old news. He's happy now, and I suppose that's what's important. I get to see him this weekend, since he'll be in the Metroplex for stuff with his girlfriend and their club thingie..oh well. I am counting the seconds til Spring Break, and know it will be here before I know it. I'm going to Houston with three of my best friends, Katie, Tyler, and Ashley, and possibly Boerne with Ashley later in the week, and hopefully, if all works out, College Station for Aggie con and some good drunken times with old friends. But it's all up in the air. I'm trying to grow up and move on, and I don't know how. It seems silly, but I thought turning 20 would do something radical for me. I thought life would make sense and I would grow up and things would be good again. Well, they're not, but I'm surviving, obviously. I guess it all comes down to having amazing friends who are there though everything. It may sound silly, but without my friends, I would be nowhere. They tell me when I'm being stupid, they help me get through the tough spots, they make life worth waking up to, and I love them more than words can express. In 9 months, I'll be 21, and my baby brother will be 18. It's hard to believe. I can't wait for that. We're getting tattoos together. I'm going to get cherry blossoms, either on my ankle, or my shoulder, I haven't decided yet, because they mean something to me, and so does Alan. I dunno, I'm hoping by then to have reached my goal weight, to have finally made a bunch of A's, to be settled into my apartment, to finally get used to having to work every day, and to have actually saved up enough money to pay for Alan's. So. I'm going to watch Sex in the City, then go to sleep. This is my life, and I'll try to update you on it more often. I close with my favorite picture of all time right now. :) ok, and maybe one just to show off my amazing embroidery skills...
Night ya 'll!

| New Year, new things, new problems.
Things are good so far in 2007. I think it's gonna be a good year..2006 was crazy, I guess I should recap-I did good and bad last semester, got my 1st A and failed a class. I changed my major, I've starting look at grad schools, I am single again. It's been a crazy year, and I've been really enjoying myself. Work is fun, but busy, classes are killer but awesome, and I love my friends more than ever. To show how awesome I've been since October 06, I will show you, since you all know what a picture junkie I am!

That's basically my life the past few months. It was good fun. I am really enjoying everything that 07 is throwing at me so far and totally excited about all that's coming up. Maybe another update in a few months. Love ya'll!!!
