xmas 2008

 christmas was awesome this year... me and chris decided to spend time with each other on christmas and do the family stuff another day. we got yummy thai food for xmas eve dinner and then opened all the presents we got each other. (:
here is a run down of some ofthe awesomeness i got from him:


plus a whole bunch of minis and chocolate yummies!

chrismas day we decided to go to a movie and get some indian food, which was delicious by the way! we went to see the day the earth stood still... pretty good movie, makes you think.


anyways, life is good and i had a great holiday (:

holy crap im using my Lj again....

i want to try and update this about my life more often. even though some of my older entries can bring back old memories its nice to have details i may have other wise forgot documented on here.

reading old entries on here makes me realize i've grown up a whole shit load the last few years and i'm a much strong person inside and out. (:


so life update:

i finished my first full semester of college successfully! i currently have a 3.5 GPA and hope to keep it that way. i'm going back in spring and i am taking 1 more class, so lets hope it goes as smoothly as the last semester.

i will be going back "home" in january which i am extremely excited about.... i miss my mom soo soo much and a few friends as well. the only shitty part about going back east will be going through all my stuff that's been in storage and either donating or craigslisting becuz i cant afford to ship it. :\

in february me and chris will be celebrating our 2nd anniversary together and im still as madly in love with him as i was the first month or so of our relationship. i can totally see our future and *gasp* children when i think about him and us. i'm so glad i found my true soul mate and hopefully there will be wedding* bells in the next year or two (:


i also made a blogger.com blog to post my cooking adventures, probably mostly baking but it'll be interesting so add me up on
there if you use it. hopefully by the end of january i'll have a new digital camera so i can post better pics here and there.

current myspace: www.myspace.com/fortherecxrd
current facebook: me
current email: lizbarrett3@gmail.com

so that's it for today, anything else you need/want to know comment freely !

*in april my divorce from Andy will be final and done!

for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

i am hopeful life will lead me the right way. fate has deffinitely showed me a whole new perspective on everything. i feel like i look at everything with a different eye, like ive grown up in so many ways and see beauty and wonder in every little thing. i value friendship in a whole new light. i trust certain people in ways i never thought possible. ive learned life can be hard but i also know i can be pushed and pushed and still survive no matter how hard the course may seem. i am slowly but surely conquering all my fears and doubts and making my being stronger and more able than i ever thought possible. i am undoubtedly ready for the next chapter in my life.

rambling of my inner thoughts.... very scattered

Sometimes i wish i didnt join the army. or even have the thought of it. it has made me grow and change in so many ways but also made me realize sooo much. The last year of my life has been to say the least... hard. I married the one person who i thought i would be with forever, i didnt even think of anyone else. and then i left him for the army. to make OUR lives better and all it did was fuckfuckfuck everything up. i am not made for the army. or the lifestyle or any of the bullshit envolved with it. being away from my home and husband and everything that made me smile in trade for egotistical people in funny hats and rules galore.... but it paid the mortgage and then some and i truely thought everything would be okay when i got back home. no one ever seemed to notice that me and andy had some serious problems that we both neglected and that i was seriously depressed for a long time or that we never had sex even though i truely wanted to make love and feel love.... depression kills the mood. i guess i hide it too well. Or what about when you told me i always felt like more of a friend than a girlfriend but you married me anyway. or that every night you called me either drunk or depressed telling me you were gonna kill yourself if i didnt come home. you think i did all the wrong when all i wanted to do was the right thing. maybe we were too young and hopeful for everything. but would things really be different if i had never signed up? how long would it be before the emotional dependence killed me? i will always love you. always. and im aware it feels like i ripped your heart out and stomped on it. but do you fail to see all the other things that we ignored? were you really happy with me and i mean really? did you see us having kids an growing old? you told me you always did everything for me(the house, decorating, money).. .why didnt you have a voice? you let everything stay inside till you explode. i guess i did too. how healthy is that for a relationship?? i truely care for you.... even though i fucked up you had "your hand in the cookie jar" before i even said a word. im not even concerned with details or anything of the sorts, nobody is perfect. perhaps if it was meant to be we will find each other again. you are still in my heart.



i feel like i had to fall apart to truely find myself.

crazy.

thursday morning ill be getting my ass handed to me in Fort Jackson.

so that means no more internet/phone for about 2 months. ill try my best to write letters to everyone that gave me their address but no promises im sure im gonna have a lot going on so dont feel bad.

I leave for basic training in 2 days!!!! how fucking crazy is that?! im so excited/anxious/nervous all at once. i just really hope i can make the best of it and not be a wuss or cry or something. its gonna be hard but itll all be worth it. i just spent the last 2 days doing army stuff for memorial day. it felt amazing having people clap and salute me even though im not even totally in yet just becuase they respect me for what im doing. i seriously almost started crying today... i got to march in one parade and ride in a hummer in another and wave and while i was waving from the hummer a little boy was holding a sign saying "thank you" made my eyes swell up. I fell like i can truely be proud of myself for what im taking on.

and if one more person says to me " hope your ready to go to iraq" im gonna punch them in the face. first off fuck you for your ignorance. i heard a statistic that 1 in every 270 americans will enlist in my generation. that means im stepping up for 270 of you dumbass' saying stupid shit to me. im not afraid to get deployed so shut up.

i hope i can live up to my standards and do everything i have set my mind to.

lastly, thursday is my PT assesment.... to see if i can do the minimum requirements for basic. im pretty confident i can do the sit ups and mile sufficently but i dunno about the push ups well see..
and if all goest well i leave for basic training in 2 weeks!!


im so excitied for my future, its scary.

as soon as i find out the exact address to my basic training i will post it here along with the dates ill be there. im pretty sure two months without internet/phone is gonna be weird but as long as everyone writes at least ill feel the love. (;




and last but not least ....
me and andy are getting married mid august. we decided to make it private....to save money and reduce the stress of planning a wedding in just a few weeks. so its going to be just me and him. we are going to boston for a few days and enjoying the city and getting a nice hotel and marrying along the way. im sure itll be fantastic. we might possibly have a get together afterwards back home but nothings for certian yet.

life experience

Recently i made a major decision... i joined the army. First of all i dont want anyone to freak out and make a smartass comment about going to Iraq. Just becuase im in the army doesnt mean ill end up going overseas, ever... war or not. So if i do go there wish me the best and think positive. Being supportive is all i want from you. Everything im gonna learn and do is going to be an amazing life experience the good and bad.

Im really amazed with myself for actually going through with this... I go to basic training June 1st till the end of July.... im already anxious to go. and i know its going to be really hard and i know i might not like everything we do but in the end its gonna make me stronger physically and emotionally and at this point in my life i think its exactly what i need.

My decision is gonna help me in so many ways... its gonna be hard not seeing Andy. I mean if we can go two months using only letters to communicate and the 3.5 months of occassional visiting and phone calls than itll prove to me that we can make it through anything. I mean the saying goes "absence makes the heart grow fonder" and im positive in our case thatll be true. And im truely blessed that for the most part my friends and family are very supportive of me. My mom even told me how proud she was of me... seriously made me teary.

Im really joining the army for me. Selfish as that sounds. i know im strong and smart and i really want to prove to myself that i can do this. I can graduate basic training and i can continue my educate while enlisted and i can have a happy life with Andy. Im really looking forward to all the great things i WILL accomplish while im enlisted. I can go to college for free, get great medical and dental benefits (for me and Andy*once he marrys me*), if i make a career out of it i can retire by 42, and when i retire ill be set for life. like i said before ive really been thinking positively about every aspect of my life no matter good or bad and for once im truely happy with EVERYTHING.


....


Besides all the crazy i just wrote about, Andy and I will most likely be getting married VERY soon possibly this month.... if not than August. So once we decide ill make sure to announce it to the world heh. Also once i find out all my info about the base ill be at ill post the address here so you can all send me cookies and letters while im away.

yesterday i got fired? or i quit im not sure.... due to very lame sircumstances. so if you know any place hiring CNAs preferable 3-11 please let me know. But in other news... im going for my LPN in september so i can make double my income now. which would be amazing. the schooling is 5 days a week sept -sept so itll be intense but very worthwhile. other than that me and Andy have been talking about making a family and whatnot and we decided that once im done with school and have a good lpn job that we can start having kids. since i should have no reason to be financial unstable by then. And possibly move.... if not out of CT to a better town in CT. That way we dont have to worry about money like we do now. so im pretty excited about that. even though i wanted to already be having kids i can wait another year or so hehe and Preston and Cillian will have a younger cousin... hopefully a girl to play with. im just glad me and andy are working out some issues we have been having lately. i really felt like i was so close to loosing him for realitively easy to fix things..... so hopefully we can keep this upbeat attitude together. i mean even though im jobless im happy as can be.. i finally feel like i have a hold on what my future should be like and Andy is behind me 100% so that helps me A LOT. maybe we can figure a way to get married this year that would be amazing.... even though moneys tight im sure we could figure it out. right now im just gonna worry about getting a job, or two to save and pay off some shit.

so yea fuck being unhappy im finding a positive in everything lately no matter the situation.... i think reading becky's lj helped me a lot too. if she can make the best out of her situation than so can i. even if she doesnt know it shes helping me stay sane and for that im thankful.
