Valentine's Day Weekend...

Because of work, I am not able to spend time with the boyf on the actual V day. We celebrated a few days before hand. It was a good time and here are the things he got me!
Box o' Chocolates. I took a bite out of everyone of them... needed to check flavors!
He got me the Gorilla for Valentine's Day. But I put the bear with him because they are fast friends. From Right to Left: Roosevelt (the bear), Beesley (the bumble bee) and Carl (the gorilla).
And TULIPS!! My favorite flower. Yeah, they boyf is good.



Also, while we were hanging out I decided to start up one of my goals... Drawing.
A drawing of Dan. Doesn't look exactly like him but it was my first try and it's been a while since I did any sketching. I thought the fabric looked pretty good though.

I need to catch up....

I always set so many goals for myself and then slack to the up-teenth degree. So much so that I feel like I'm being left behind in my own life. My good friends from college are moving up and out and I am in the biggest rut of my life.

What to do? What to do?

Some things I'd like to start doing again:

Painting
Drawing (Charcoal babe)
Designing... and just creating in general.

I was to start a new chapter in my life.
I need to find a better job.
I need to do things for me, that make me a happier person.

If you didn't already know... I've said that before... but this is the first time I feel like I can really change my life. I have been too caught up with making other people happy and comfortable. What about me? Why do I push my feelings to the wayside??

"If you're friend said 'Hey man! It's my birthday! Get a tattoo of a hot dog!... Would you do it? NO!" --I heard that on the T today...
Even though is a particularly weird reference, it spoke to me. Why always make others happy if your not happy, right?

My newest goals:

Save up for a new camera.
Find a new apartment
Start designing... details later
Make a change, for me.

Time to stop....
Time to start.
