It's Okay...

...Thursday!!! Yes, I'm linking up with Neely again. It's been a while...so here it goes.
 

It is okay to...

...hate the cold weather we are experiencing in southern California (I know, we are spoiled!)

...sleep 30 minutes longer...just for once. I needed the sleep.

...crave a sugar-cinnamon pretzel, but since I'm going gluten free I simply can't eat it. Crap.

...love Starbucks for giving me my money back, and for their free drinks.

...not really like our neighbors lately.

...look forward to my friend A moving to California.

...look forward to birthday parties I'll be attending in March.

...be happy for my friends...they welcomed their second girl this Tuesday.

...not to be ashamed to admit that I love TV.

...spend certain days in my PJs; all day long of course!!!

...cry.

...to save money for the future (even if the future is like a week or a month away!).

...not start the day without coffee because...

Have a fabulous day! :)

It's OK Thursday....

It's OK ...

That it is cooling down over here (finally!!).

That I almost got run over by two bikes today...actually it's NOT ok.
(really, use the effing street to ride your bike, don't sneak up, and don't drive like a maniac on campus...you are NOT alone!!).

That I wasn't feeling well yesterday, or the day before.

That I haven't gone to Starbucks in over a week.

That I ate a whole salami by myself.

That I'm looking forward to a fun day on Monday.

That I will not be attending one class on Monday because of the fun things planned. (shhhhh!!).

That I feel like crap being very anti-social lately.

That a simple Halloween Card made my day sunny and bright! (Thank you J!!) ;)

That I snuggle too much with the dogs.

to go to bed at 8.30/9ish on a regular basis now. Not sure why.

to miss Europe sometimes (and its fall weather!).

to have sore legs from dancing too much at Zumba!!

to finishing up homework and whatnot so I can catch up on Criminal Minds!

Happy Weekend everyone. It always starts on Thursday for me.
More, happier, photo-loaded posts are on their way soon...just when life happens or nothing happens at all it's not as easy to pretend that everything is okay. Bleh. But today felt like a good day, I also think the wind and gray clouds have a lot to do with this...it's gorgeous!!!

I linked up with Neely and Amber, have you?!

xoxo

It's Okay Today...

...to be addicted to Pumpkin Spice Lattes.

...to dislike the 90-degree weather we have been having.

...to get annoyed at people.

...to get irritated too.
...to not be perfect!

...to be a little confused about the future.

...to make decisions based on my level of stress (the less stress the better!)

...to miss driving.
...to crave BBQ chips even though I just had them last night.

...to want to do more over the weekend because being stuck at home SUCKS.

...to pout once in a while.
...to miss my independence (yeah I know!)
...to want to go on a coffee date not just with myself!
...to feel like crying most of the time.
...to be working for school and being done with HW and all before Friday.
...to want to go shopping almost 24/7.
...to feel alone most of the time. (actually NOT, but oh well!)

I'm linking up with Neely and Amber today.

Inspiration is needed. I feel like everything is slipping away.

Last week I was told good news, and then those news kind of threw me off and now I really don't know what to do. Best possible scenario for me is to wait another year and not force myself to finish school so fast. I may be afraid of change and all that (who isn't sometimes, really?!). I just don't like to rush. I hate to be rushed or not have a concrete plan. I'm a little wreck these days.  I just don't like that kind of change. I'll be still in southern California. But, I feel like the older I get the more afraid I am of change, or the possibility of failure, or what not. Where did the old Selma go?! Really.

Either way, I hope you all had a fabulous Labor Day Weekend, and a rather smooth start into a shorter week. Keep your fingers crossed so I can finally enjoy a weekend that fulfills the requirement of a weekend...I do not want to sit in my sweatpants in front of a TV again. I do, but that's not the point. I wanna do that when it's raining outside or so cold I'm afraid I'm about to freeze my toes or something. I did not like my past weekend. Period. The burgers on Monday evening were nice. But Sunday sucked, and Saturday did not turn out as planned which was a huge bummer and I feel bad for having spent money on something I could not enjoy. Great evening, really. Please add MAJOR sarcasm to this. 

...so, it is OK for me to vent and be irritated and also annoyed. Nothing ever is happy and pink and super flowery and all...we all have bad days. I just had a bad weekend. And a rather confusing start into this week. Let's really hope for something better!!

PLEASE!

Thursday Update - It's OK

Good morning from sunny and hot California!

I'm still jet lagged, but it's getting better each day...I am trying to get rid of it by today.

I'm also trying my best to stay awake, get enough fluids and sleep and enjoy summer!!

In less than two weeks I'll be sitting behind books again which I am really not looking forward to at the moment. Grrrr...

Since I can't think straight (yet), I think a "It's OK Thursday" post with Neely and Amber would be appropriate! Have fun!!

It's OK...

...that I am still jet lagged.

...that I didn't feel any earthquakes happening, but everyone else around me did.

...that I take naps during the day.

...that I am older than I look, it makes me feel special.

...that I am catching up on PLL and True Blood...just feels right sometimes.

...that I am lazy most of the time.

...that I gained over ten pounds while in Europe, so I can lose it all again here.

...that I felt like linking up with this link up today because I needed to distract myself a little.

...to be super happy to hold my new DL in my hand...I can buy a bottle of wine now without having any problems.

...to be excited about walking into Target today.

...to be equally excited to be in California again.

...to miss home already.

That's that.

It's a beautiful Thursday morning. I woke up, got ready and am sipping on my coffee contemplating about life and all. It's that fantastic. Then again, I don't want to stay in bed just so I can sleep in. I need to get back into a normal daily routine...beat the jet lag because really, my body now thinks it's almost 5.30pm at the moment, instead of 8.30am. Thank you very much. I don't want dinner, I am eating breakfast now.

If anyone of you has tips on how to get rid of a nasty jet lag, fill me in. What I am doing and what used to be okay and what used to work so well for me is not working anymore. I have been doing this flying/traveling for over twelve years, but heck, it is not getting easier. I also blame it on the fact that I am not getting younger. I used to have no problems and now this...oh well.
So yes, if you have a tip or two let me know.
Thank you.

Have a great day.

It is okay...

Hey guys,

today, I am utterly exhausted and slowly going nuts by everything going on around here...so I decided it was finally time (first time ever for me) to link up with Neely and Amber for this week's It's OK Thursday.

Have fun reading my ramblings/musings today.

It's OKAY...

...that I slept in today.

...that I spent more money today than I actually wanted.
 

...that I actually wish my friend would call off our meeting tonight because I am exhausted and don't want to go out anymore.

...that I can't stop playing a stupid game on my iPhone.

...that I want a pair of shoes I know I won't be able to wear often in southern California.

...that I am okay leaving my mom again.

...that I gained some pounds while visiting Europe.

 ...to be reading more than spending money on movie tickets.

...to be slowly eating less meat.

...to look forward to seeing friends again next week because I really missed them all.

...to look forward to finally driving again (I know ridiculous).

...to spend my last couple of days here with my mom, and lots of food, drinks, and shows I won't be seeing or having for a long time again.

...to freak out while packing.

The last one is really freaking me out.
Two suitcases, not enough space and me really wanting to bring most of my items and not buy too many new things for a while...this can be a freaky thing.
I am calm though.
I got to be.

Happy Thursday. 

xoxo
