Ohh Sad Day...

Well not as sad as it could be, but I have to take my dad back to the airport today. He's off to Colorado again. Don't know when I will see him next-maybe Thanksgiving?? Hope so. I might as well get this out of the way...my parents are getting divorced after 21, almost 22, years of marriage. It's very difficult for me as a 21 year old. I never thought this would happen to our family. We were the 'perfect family'. One boy, one girl. Daddy's a Marine who dedicated his life to his country, Corps, and family. Who didn't want to be us?! But after several deployments, duty shifts, late nights, secret service missions, and memorial services it's all ending. It was the post-retirement that made things hard. My dads job took him to CO, my moms job is here.

I cried and cried when they gave my brother and I the news. I still cry. Has my whole life been a lie? How long have they been unhappy? I hope it wasn't my fault. I tear up writing this but it's real...it's still fresh. It's made me think about my life though. I broke up with my boyfriend of two years because I realized one day he wasn't the one. It seriously just hit me. God opened my eyes and my heart and although it was hard for the both of us, I'm at peace with it. I know I made the right decision and some things since then have shown me that. I thank God for leading me and helping me through this life. I need it. I cannot do this on my own.

Onto other things...tonight is a home football game for Havelock who is undefeated!!  GO RAMS! I'm going to the game with an old high school friend, Richard. I haven't seen him (along with many others) since graduation. I hate that. But it's life and I guess they are fine without me!! Haha Also, I worked out today. It was back and biceps so here ya go:

Wide grip lat pulldowns
Seated cable pulls
Incline dumbbell rows (5 sets simply bc I need more back work)
Dumbbell curls
Alternating dumbbell hammer curls
* I was going to do back extensions and narrow grip lat pulldowns but I needed to get back to the house*

As always, 3 sets of 12-15. You should be failing by the end of each set. I have slowly been trying to increase my weights, except or bicep exercises. I have always had naturally toned biceps and I don't want them getting too big. I love working out though. I feel at peace when im straining my muscles. I really wish I could do cardio though. I like cardio! But my knees are getting worse everyday. Just walking around campus kills me!

Alright folks, I will holla atcha tomorrow! Be safe! Mmmwah


Hahahahha!!!!!  Enjoy a good laugh =)

  1. Stay strong through this tough time.. I know it can be hard. I know my feelings aren't as fresh as yours are but if you ever need to talk, let me know :) And try not to think that the past years could of been false or unreal because it brought your whole family to where they are today. It brought you to who YOU are today- about to be a college graduate and you have such a bright future ahead of you! And when it all feels like it's too much, just think of something fun.. like vacuuming up vomit from a night out in high school...;)
