(2 Big Shots | Put your hands in the sky) update! [08 Sep 2009|09:17pm] [ mood | exhausted ] [ music | The Almost - Say This Sooner ] So work has been horrible. I got a job with Target in Castle Rock last week and they've been working me this whole week for 8 hours. Sometimes I'm just standing there! But today I worked in Food Avenue and I saw the most amazing thing ever. Two elderly couples who have been friends for, probably centuries, have coffee and talk every Tuesday in our dining area. I thought that was the best thing to see. It warmed my heart, haha. And when I was driving home the clouds covered most of the sky and it looked like some of the dark clouds were being swept downwards with a big paint brush. It looked like it touched the ground, and the bright light of the sun was peaking out of open holes in the sky. it was just so pretty! Anyway, since I started working, I feel a little more human. I'm interacting with people and feeling comfortable with myself but it all feels like I'm in a dream. Everyday it feels like that, but when I get home I'm awake even though I'm exhausted. Is that weird? I haven't really made any friends but I guess that takes time. I'm used to going to parties and just talking with everyone and being really dumb crazy with Diana and Megan but I guess I can't do that at work, huh. Haha. I miss them. I miss everyone back home. I've been terribly home sick but trying to make the most of it. I think Megan is visiting me this week! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Homework sucks online, I miss being in a classroom. I can just sit in the back and no one has to notice me, haha. I think I learn better with an instructor instead of just reading it on my own. We have these discussion boards and you have to post a reply to her topic so everyone can read it. Ew. Ash is the cutest, as usual. Still breast feeding! I don't think he'll ever want to stop but I think it might be that time... Although it is a lot easier putting him to bed with my boobs! Ethan and I are doing really well, I think both of us working and not being around each other everyday gives us more excitement. :) His mom is still in Japan and won't be back 'til the end of September. I miss her! She's so cute. I miss my own mother too, but I usually talk to her pretty frequently. I haven't really talked to anyone on the phone from California besides family. I think it would make me more homesick because I'm missing out on their lives as well as they missing out on mine. But I'll get through it, like my friend said, I just have to find my place in Colorado. And I will! I'm trying to better myself, start anew with confidence and intelligence. Pick my friends better and just be closer to God. (I'm trying to anyway) Hopefully I'll find that I'm a pretty awesome person and believe it!

(1 Big Shot | Put your hands in the sky) Ethan and I [13 May 2009|12:02am] [ mood | calm ] [ music | yeah yeah yeah's - heads will roll ] So we've lived in Colorado for 2 weeks now. It's kinda weird, like it doesn't even feel like I left California! It's the same weather! Haha. I think once it snows or when I fly back from California after my cousin's wedding it'll feel like a new beginning and a new place. I actually feel kind of hopeful of the future instead of weary of it now. Like I can do anything I want. I used to feel like there was no choices for me other than raising a baby and working @ the same job the rest of my life. Now I feel like I can go back to school and start over. Make new friends and maybe reinvent myself. (Just to throw some self confidence in there) BTW It's really beautiful out here! I've been worried about Megan lately. Ever since Q left for the army she's been depressed. Their relationship wasn't going all that well before he left and I don't know if this will make it worse. He's hard to talk to now, I'm hoping the military won't make him harder to get through to. But, I'm praying and talking to her pretty much every day, just trying to make her feel better. She got married, I moved to Colorado and Q joined the Army all in a matter of a week and a half. That's gotta be stressful!!! Anyway, I feel boring right now, haha. I've just been watching movies, eating, sleeping and going grocery shopping. Weee.

(4 Big Shots | Put your hands in the sky) My niece Kyrie!!! [28 Oct 2008|11:31pm] [ mood | ecstatic ] [ music | Ash is talking! ] Was born 10/28/08 9lbs. 10oz. 20 inches long So cute and sooooo chubby! Haha, I think she looks more like her daddy. =] Man, I love my nephew Bradley, my niece Kyrie and my son Ash so much, I never even imagined that I could FEEL this much!!! I'm so HAPPPPPYYYY!!!!!! So many babies!!!

(2 Big Shots | Put your hands in the sky) I made a song for Ethan! [10 Oct 2008|03:08am] [ mood | amused ] Ethan You're beacon to my heart You make me want to start A religion based off of my love for you. I'm glad that you love me too Ethan oh ethan oh ethan People may call you nathan or Ian but even if that's true... I love your face! Your pretty, pretty, pretty face That makes my heart go pitter pat Pitter pitter pat Pitter pitter pat Ethan my eyes only see you And it hurt when I didn't see that wall because I was staring @ you.

(Put your hands in the sky) [06 Oct 2008|06:27am] [ mood | aggravated ] [ music | Karate high school ] Oh my gosh I am so ridiculous!!!! I cannot go to sleep even though I so desperately want to... Man. I'm nuts. p.s. I'm watching Balto, good movie!

(2 Big Shots | Put your hands in the sky) [03 Oct 2008|03:52am] [ mood | pensive ] [ music | Avenged Sevenfold - Darkness Coats Us ] I'm trying to get into contact with people again. I just kinda hid myself away when I had my baby, which of course is understandable. But now I don't know how to get back into the groove of things. I feel totally like I'm in high school all over again. Shy, timid and don't know what to say. I think I have a problem with talking to people one on one. I'll like, look at them and then look away, avoid eye contact sometimes and my mind will go blank. I'm weird!!! And I'm pretty sure the people I talk to like that think so too, haha. And I think it has something to do with being a twin. Always having someone by my side when I interact with people... Hmmm I'm trying to get motivated to make a routine so I can get my body back to normal. (And actually get healthy!) It's easier said than done. I'm a total procrastinator. Even when I look in the mirror and hate what I see, I get all pumped up to go to the gym and then Ash'll get hungry and I'll get distracted. Seriously, what will it take for me to GO. Weighing 500 lbs. and pooping on myself with fungus under all my many rolls where I'd find things I've rolled over? Would I even be able to roll over? Sheesh. I need motivaaatttiiioonnnnn. Actually.. That SHOULD be my motivation. And I keep listening to songs that remind me of Khalil, Andrew, Mat, Sharde, Melissa, and other people I've lost contact with. Takes me back to what happened that day we listened to them. =[ It makes me sad but I love the music... Every song I've listened to has some sort of memory attached to it. I need a new playlist! Aw, nostalgia at work.

(Put your hands in the sky) Women with periods, men with commas [20 Sep 2008|12:33am] [ mood | amused ] [ music | Call it off ] I found some lyrics by Tegan and Sara that remind me of Ethan. Awww... I felt you in my legs Before I even met you And when I laid beside you For the first time I told you I feel you in my heart, And I don't even know you I felt you in my life Before I ever thought to Feel the need to lay down Beside you And tell you I feel you in my heart, And I don't even know you

(4 Big Shots | Put your hands in the sky) [19 Sep 2008|02:18am] [ mood | Reflective ] [ music | Tegan & Sara - Call It Off ] Today was a great day because I actually SLEPT last night. Work is going okay, I'm thinking of asking for a raise but I'm so frightened of being rejected... I think I deserve one, even though I'm late sometimes... Okay, most of the time. But I do my job well. I catch on quickly, I do whatever my boss asks of me, I volunteer to come in early, and I'm just plain awesome! I have a child to support now so I need more than 9 dollars an hour. Especially since I'm only working 3 days a week for 8.5 hours a day. And I really need more courage... Pretty much in every corner of my life... Someone told me that once you have a kid, everything changes. Especially your ability to stand up to people. I was listening to this old CD I found at my parents house. This song just reminded me why I need to stop worrying so much, it's meaning less! As I Lay Dying - Confined. These are just some of the lyrics that inspire me. "How quickly I forget That this is meaningless In a world passing through my fingers I still chase the wind What have I learned from yesterday?" Gosh I missed hardcoreymetal. I need to stop slouching.

(Put your hands in the sky) Update on Mary Anne [16 Sep 2008|07:34am] [ mood | exhausted ] [ music | The Veronicas - Revenge is Sweeter ] Mary Anne is still in the hospital but doing better. She can update her myspace so that's a good sign... =] She needed a blood transfusion because one of her veins almost collapsed... Man, I'm so effing glad she's alive. Thank you Grace for praying for her!! ((I can't write you back.)

(Put your hands in the sky) [16 Sep 2008|07:34am] [ mood | exhausted ] [ music | The Veronicas - Revenge is Sweeter ] I love how some people are unapologetic about who they are. Me...I find myself muttering sorry for being alive every time anything goes wrong. Oh, a bird poo pooed on your head while you were peeing on my shoe? I'm sorry! I feel ashamed of who I am because I don't have any confidence. I'm afraid of confrontation, afraid of upsetting anyone or hurting their feelings and yet I sit there and let them pummel me with fists of conflicts and let them beat me down with guilt. I seriously hate that about myself. I forgive to easily and forget too soon.

(1 Big Shot | Put your hands in the sky) [04 Sep 2008|07:31pm] [ mood | scared ] My friend Maryanne was hit by a car yesterday. She broke both her legs and was in surgery last night but she still needs more surgery. She's a wonderful, loving person with a good heart. She's been having other problems as well before this so I just hope she pulls through with the same positivity that she's been keeping with her since I've known her. Please pray for her. Thank you!

(Put your hands in the sky) Ash Hiro Ahlstrom [02 Sep 2008|12:17am] [ mood | chipper ] [ music | John Lennon ] 7/22/08 7 lbs. 15 oz. 20 inches It took me 21 freaking hours! Haha, but I had an epidural the first 19 hours so I didn't feel much for the first stages. It was so incredible to feel his head coming out and for Ethan to yell out "it's a boy!!!" I'm so glad we didn't find out his sex when we could have. Man... I hated being pregnant and I KNOW that it hurt like hell, but I can't really remember how it felt... So now I know I'd want another baby some day. Anyway, now he's almost 12 lbs. and it's only been a little over a month! He's so cute, always looking around and making funny noises. He's working on turning over and lifting his head when he's on his tummy. Sometimes I think he's a little too smart for his age... =]

(Put your hands in the sky) [19 Jul 2008|03:06pm] [ mood | anxious ] So they had my due date wrong! It was the 16th! 3 days ago! This one is based on fetal development and not my last menstrual period so if I don't go into labor by Monday, they'll have to induce me and that could take up to 6 days... LOVELY!! Ethan and I are doing pretty good. We laugh a lot at stupid stuff we come up with. The other day I was complaining that fetus doesn't ever want to come out. "Well, when I'm in you I never want to come out..." EW! Hahaha! I love him for being gross and silly like me. I just feel horrible because Megan is having a hard time with Quintin. She quit her job because she knew they were going to fire her and now Q is stressing out about it because he feels like he has to pay for everything. On top of that He's treating her like crap. He's not sensitive even though he knows he should be because she's pregnant. He gets annoyed at her if she cries or if she wants to talk about how she's feeling. When she's over a my apartment I feel guilty because my boyfriend is being supportive and loving and hers is being a douche. I hope that they work it out soon... I'm worried about her!!

(Put your hands in the sky) [07 Jul 2008|10:11pm] [ mood | crazy ] New cell phone law I figured we could all use the good laugh on this one! Cell phones - New Law (2008) According to new law that goes into effect July 1, 2008 you will no longer be able to use a cell phone while driving unless you have a 'hands free' adapter. I went to Circuit City and they wanted $50 for a headset with a microphone for my cell phone. Having a friend in the cell phone business, I talked with him and was able to come up with an alternative, working through Office Depot.. These kits are compatible with any mobile phone and one size fits all. I paid him $0.08 each because he bought in quantity. Then we tried it with Motorola, Sprint, Verizon and Nokia units and they worked perfectly. A photo is attached so scroll down & take a look and let me know if you want one. Also, forward this to anyone you know, who has a cell phone, and who may want one! ( Here )

(4 Big Shots | Put your hands in the sky) [02 May 2008|03:28pm] So we've decided on names! It's either Ash Hiro for a boy or Sage Kiyoko for a girl.

(Put your hands in the sky) [01 May 2008|12:58pm] [ mood | Fat for a reason! ] [ music | Metro Station ] My feet are 3 times their normal size. Weee!

(Put your hands in the sky) [30 Apr 2008|12:44pm] [ mood | calm ] We found an apartment in Rancho Cucamonga and have moved in recently! Yay! Now we're doing our best to make it look pretty and be suited to both our tastes. Ethan's decorating the living room and our bathroom looks boommbb. I'm a lot happier now. =]

(Put your hands in the sky) Diary of a Young Girl [30 Apr 2008|12:33pm] [ mood | contemplative ] "I wonder if it's really a good quality not to let myself be influenced. Is it really good to follow almost entirely my own conscience? Quite honestly, I can't imagine how anyone can say, 'I'm weak,' and then remain so. After all, if you know it, why not fight against it, why not try to train your character? The answer was: 'Because it's so much easier not to!' This reply rather discouraged me. Easy? Does that mean that a lazy deceitful life is an easy life? Oh no, that can't be true, it mustn't be true, people can so easily be tempted by slackness... and by money." "A type like Peter finds it difficult to stand on his own feet, but it's even harder to stand on your own feet as a conscious, living being. Because if you do, then it's twice as difficult to steer a right path through the sea of problems and still remain constant through it all." ..."How can I make it clear to him that what appears easy and attractive will drag him down into the depths, depths where there is no comfort to be found, no friends and no beauty, depths from which it is almost impossible to realize oneself? We all live, but we don't know the why or the where. We all live with the object of being happy, our lives are all different and yet the same... We have the chance to learn , the possibility of attaining something, we have all reason to hope for much happiness, but... we must earn it for ourselves. And that is never easy. You must work and do good, not be lazy and gamble, if you wish to earn happiness. Laziness may appear attractive, but work gives satisfaction."... "People who have a religion should be glad, for not everyone has the gift of believing in heavenly things. You don't necessarily even have to be afraid of punishment after death; purgatory, hell, and heaven are things that a lot of people can't accept, but still a religion, it doesn't matter which, keeps a person on the right path. It isn't the fear of God but the upholding of one's own honor and conscience. How noble and good everyone could be if, every evening before falling asleep, they were to recall their minds the events of the whole day and consider exactly what has been good and bad. Then, without realizing it, you try to improve yourself at the start of each new day; of course, you achieve quite a lot in the course of time. Anyone can do this, it costs nothing and is certainly very helpful. Whoever doesn't know it must learn and find by experience that: 'A quite conscience makes one strong!'"
