And

Miles from where you are,
I lay down on the cold ground.
I pray that something picks me up,
and sets me down in your warm heart

Yo

I'm actually happy I found the channel to watch eurovision. So me and mom were sitting eating snacks and testing drinks lol Honey Rum with like apple cider, which atcually was good. But we were sitting and rating each song. And then when they started giving points usually when you hear the first countries 12 points it pretty much similar for the rest of the countries. So when they said norway I was like "wtf sersiouly??" haha and mom is just yelling going "I knew it I knew it!!" So that is awesome norway won and considering today is their national day! pretty cool for them. :) I actually liked the song and thought he was cute. And then what the heck was with the singer from germany and his silver leggings? haha and dita von teese? did they really think she was going to give them more votes? each year is unpredictable, one year u have hard rock, next year a ballad, and now a folk song. Which means everyone next year will be doing folk songs lol. but other than that went to the beach yesterday and now helping my mom's friends translate a paper from swedish to english, my god I haven't done anything educational in over a year lol, just been letting my brain turn to mush. Although I took my friend Amanda's college books that she was done using to keep my brain going but haven't even touched them lol but I think i will soon...maybe....ahh who am i kidding! lol. But just bored out of my mind and watching dubbed spanish television. Why do they have to dub it? WHY!! gargh. Been watching 10 things I Hate About You. It's interesting watching Heath Ledger speak spanish. lol but I think I'm gonna go shower then take the bus to meet my mom when she gets off of work

ciao!! xoxo

What?!!! I have a blog??

haha whoopsie!! forgot about the blog, for like a month. But anywho it's almost two in the morning. I don't know if I can't sleep because I'm hoping things get better soon and I make a decision on what to do with my life soon. since this year went no where near how I had planned it.
I really wish the economy gets better soon, I don't know how much longer of this I can take. I'm tired of reading the news how another few thousand people have been laid off. It gives me no hope. Everyone is in the same postition to get a good paying job to support their families and put food on the table. Some people might think I'm just lazy because I don't have a job at the moment, but that is not the truth at all!! Do people think I like being stuck in the house all day because I have no money to go do anything? I can't even go buy water if we run out! (in spain you can't drink the water from the faucet) And here where I'm at everything is based on the tourists! We have no tourists = we have no jobs. which means I have no job. And I don't know what to do about school because I don't know where. And the whole money issue, and all the kids are thinking the same thing now, no jobs so go to school so that lowers ur chances of getting into school perhaps. But then again, maybe if i start school now, by the time i get out hopefully the economy will be better...But I may be having high hopes on that dream. Since in the past 5 years it's been deteriorating slowly and no one even bothered to fix it. And now look where we are at! The are calling it a recession, I would say we are past that! It's a depression. Why did we have to go to that stupid war in iraq? Why did banks keep loaning out money to people who can't afford to pay it back? Look where that got us? One store after the other is closing. The thing I love the most about this is how prices keep going up when people making less money. Who thought of that? lol. Smart. I just hope when they start to fix it, I don't know how, might read up on what some people have thought of for ideas to bring us back. I just hope they do it soon..
I wanna be able to go back home in july to chicago, although being without a job, yet again I don't know how that is going to work out. I wish I could have seen my future about 9 months ago and never left target. I mean yeah I liked it there and the people were fun and I enjoyed myself at least, and the hours would have been perfect if I were to have started school. I should have just done that. I know it's too late to go back and I shouldn't bother myself regretting it, because I can't change it. I guess there was some meaning I came here. Just not quite sure what it is yet. Maybe I came here to see that I really should get a move on with my life. It seems like this place is one of those places everyone comes to, to get away from their problems. mine was the opposite. The problems started when I got here. Maybe it's meant to put perspective into my life. And see how things are somewhere else and what their life is based on. To find out what makes the world go round in different parts of the world. Apparently it really is money. You know how they saw that money isn't everything? That money doesn't make the world go round? It really does. Because when you make money, and go spend it, you are paying someone else's paycheck. You are giving another person a chance to put food on the table and continue the circle onto the next person. I'm not saying that money IS everything and that money DOES make the world go round, I'm just saying that money does play a big part in our lives.
Although being here is interesting. Meeting different people from all over the world and hearing their point of view on everything. It does make you wonder and then you get your own perspective by talking to so many people and giving them your point of views. And how your opinions can change or become stronger about certain things. You stand up for what you want and what you believe in. Maybe it makes you stronger when you get into a discussion and you are able to stand your ground and not fall victim to the other person's belief.
haha wow I'm doing some really serious writing here, and realizing things, well I fell a bit lighter and more at ease, I guess the expressing yourself really does help. I think I should go to bed so I can wake-up to another dreadful day of soul searching. Although mom keeps yelling at me cause I'm always so "negative" well it's kinda hard to be positive when everything is shit. Maybe that's another one of life lessons I'm learning here. To always stay positive, cause when u think positive you allow things to happen. If you're always negative you turn down everything and maybe even a miracle in disguise.

Something smells like Curry

So mom is making dinner right now and soon I'm gonna go start getting ready for work. Today woke up and went and ate breakfast. Then took the dogs for a walk. Yes we still have them. Which I'm very happy about, I like not having to sleep alone and everyone thinks they are so cute!!! Then me and my mom went to the beach for a while trying to work on my tan. It's funny how all the tourists are tanner than the people that live here. Because when u live here u don't feel like going to the beach everyday because it's right there!! I literally live across the street from the beach. So I see it everday and it's like a 2 minute walk to get there but always to lazy to actually go to the beach. I'm loving these dogs more and more and Lady follows me everywhere I go. But I'm gonna go start getting ready and then since tonight is Thursday it's me and jemma's day to go out but I don't know if we will. Well lets hope the boss isn't there tonight at work, he's so annoying. It's a lot more fun when he's not there. later

xoxo

sooo...

yeah so right now I'm getting ready to go to work, just waiting till its 8:30 then i'll start walking there. But today I'm actually prouf of myself! I did two loads of laundry (i would have done more but there is only so much space on the drying rack) and I actually made dinner. And not like a crappy easy dinner like a sandwhich I made spaghetti and meatsauce. I know that's not that hard but it does invole boiling, frying, and simmering so ha! its more work than a sandwhich. And the dogs are still here which I don't mind at all just that it's gonna make it a lot harder when they leave because i'm starting to love them like crazy!! But i'm gonna go get my MP3 player and head out! check in tomorrow!!

xoxo

meh...

just woke up, i felt good about waking up around twelve then mom reminded me that it's daylight savings time so we move the clocks one hour ahead so really woke up around one. Realized haven't put a page in my blog since like 3 days ago. Well with the dogs still here, (and I hope it stays that way, they are soo cute) anyways with the dogs here I usually take them to the park and run around or to my moms work and hang out there for a while, So haven't really had much lazy time. I on friday I had my first day of work, and I'm supposed to work again later today at 9. So I hope I'm not just filling in for someone and I actually get to continue working there. It's nice with some money in ur pocket for food and then eventually can start saving a lil here and there to either finally buy a new pair of pants, since like the 3 I have here are close to falling apart, although the only place where I like to buy jeans is america. Because there they make pants S R L. which means Short Regular, or Long. And of course I always get long and they fit over my big bum, which all the guys like so woohoo but trying to find pants boohoo. lol
Today mom wanted to go to the beach since it is just right across the road. If i knew where the camera was i'd take a pic to show ya, but can' t be bothered. My neighbor's british english and everyone else's is starting to wear off on me. lol But hopefully I can get a massage today before I go to work, because my back has been really weird lately. I honestly don't think it's possible for my to only write a short blog entry, lol. But anywho thursday was a horrible day, was about 5 minutes away from getting raped, So that's why I didn't write thursday. and then after almost getting raped I asked jemma to come over because felt scared and stupid. So then when me and her were sitting outside we saw josh walking by! A guy we met on wednesday? yeah i think wed. So then he saw us and then came over and hung out with us the rest of the day! which was loads of fun. Then friday don't really remember, i've just been really tired lately, think i know why. But then anyways friday night I worked for the first time and then afterwards me and jemma met up with josh and were out the whole night lol. OH!!! thursday!! after what happened my mom didnt want me staying home alone, so went out with her and jemma. Since thursday night is me and jemma's night to go out. haha it's kinda funny i've been mad at her twice already but we always make up on thursday so we can go out lol. retarded i know, but both our lives are so boring anyways that's all we have to do. But she is working now so I think I'll go see her. But anywho thursday, I did NOT dress up at all! I didn't want any guys talking to me what so ever! No make-up and didnt even bother with my hair, but then I still get this hot civil guard come up and starts talking and blah blah blah, oh and then the dj's at harleys, (which is like our fave place to go) were a bit drunk or tipsy or just stupid, and asked if i had silicone boobs, u know how hard I laughed!!!??? because I have no boobs what-so-ever. I have an ass that I know! ;) and then they kept trying to grab my ass so I called claudio (one of the dancer/waiters at harleys) and told him to pull me out. So he did and then continued dancing with jemma. and last night was just ok. so yeah this entry is really confusing, it's very similar to when I talk, I'll be talking about one thing and suddenly I'll remember something else and then start talking about that. Usually when I remember the other thing i yell OHHH!! which now looking back at this entry I already wrote that lol. But I'm hungry so gonna walk to spar, or mom is and get some food so we can make french toast!! check back in tomorrow most likely. or I'll add some pictures later today!

xoxo

4:00 AM

That's the time right now. Got home like 2 hours ago. Came home before my mom because I was responsible and thinking of the dogs!! haha So then got home took the dogs for a walk. Then when i came inside I saw that one of them had took a wee on the couch. So I took the couch cover off and handwashed it. So by the time my mom got home with KEBABS.....YUMMY MMMMMMMM i hung the couch cover outside to dry.

But today didnt do much this morning besides taking the dogs for a walk with jemma to go pick her brother up from school, which by the way 5 dogs....FUN!! lol And then me and my mom went to the shopping center to eat and then were walking around looking for shoes for my mom, but since I have no job and no money right now can't really buy anything. And then we were walking around asking people if they knew any place that was hiring. So got a few tips! Gonna try tomorrow. or friday...since usually have to get up early to go job hunting and since its 4 am already i dont think i wanna get up in 5 hours looking like shit. And I'll go when my mom is off work so she can be my back-up! lol oh and then we went into a jewelery store because my mom needs a new chain, and I saw the prettiest ring from Swarovski!! if thats how u spell it right. Oh found a pic of it!
the Flicker Ring i want so badly!

I've been wanting a ring ever since my mom got her little irish ring thingy. I used to have one but its back home in sweden or somewhere. And I want a nice ring that wont turn my finger green if it gets a lil wet. But that was like one of the only rings I saw that I liked. I when I tried it on it felt so right! haha I either want to buy it for my self or my mom can get it for me for my b-day which is coming up. But since I have no job and NO MONEY right now might just wish apon a far away star for that ring! but im going to sleep now. now it's 4:23. It's takin me 23 minutes to write this lol and look for the pic and take a Which Gossip Girl Character are you? and I'm Blair Waldorf. lol was hoping to be serena or jenny but no biggie!! The dogs are sleeping with me again tonight. Moby was on my pillow but now they are both under the bed lol! G'night! or Good morning!! since i hear birds starting to sing!!

xoxo

oh did I forget to mention I HATE MY PHONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! tell u about that later when i wake up!!!

another xoxo! :D

Followers

So today took the dogs for a walk to my moms work and hung out there for a while. Then I went to go pick up food for us from the shopping center and I took the dogs with me. Well on the way back when i was walking a guy looked at the dogs and smiled and said Hi so i said hi back and kept walking. So then I was walking for about 5 minutes and then I was going to cross the street and make sure no cars were coming, and then suddenly that guy was right behind me! he had his phone out and asked if he could take a picture of the dogs and I was like umm ok. And then he just started talking to me u know askin questions like how are u, where u from and blah blah blah. Then he starts telling me where he works and stuff and im just like ok......and then he kept walking and talking with me. So i just had to cross the street to get back to mom's work and then I was like ok well im going now. and he asked is this where u live? I was like no. and then he was like what are you doing tomorrow? Maybe we can hang out and talk. I was like no I'm busy tomorrow. And I have to go, my mom is waiting for her food. So then he's like you don't wanna talk and I was like no. And i just started walking away and he kept talking. I was just like Uh Huh! And then i turned around to make sure he still wasn't following me. and then he turned around and walked away. These stupid morockons! gosh they are so annoying and don't understand no. Like last night when we were out, this morockon starts talking to me and i was like ok..And then I asked where are you from? and they respond Sahara....ok.....that's a desert. And I'm like you mean morocko? and then he looked kinda dumbfounded and was like yeah. I mean cause they have a bad reputation here. So then when they say Sahara, they are trying to make seem like they come from a better place. Well sahara is just the desert. And then that guy last night, he's like so u wanna meet up tomorrow and talk? I was like umm no. Yeah so they are annoying and they keep popping up everywhere! And all the cute Irish and English and other nationalites are only frikkin tourists that go home after a week. So all ur stuck with are the morockons! and im probably not even spelling it right. Well anywho that is my rant of the day, maybe i'll go see jemma at work since im bored. I was thinking about watching some gossip girl but I dunno yet, check back in later.

Windy City #3???

Am I just prone to moving to windy cities all the time? I mean come on!! Chicago=windy and cold. Sweden= windy and cold, Gran Canaria=windy and warm! haha I mean at least here when the wind blows it doesn't sting you :) Aww wait! Now I remembered the bad part about the wind here, when it gets really windy and rainy (it's not rainy now just windy) but when it does we get the sand from the sahara desert blown in here. Honestly no joke! After a good storm go take a look at your balcony or car and you will see all the sand. I mean its not like thick sand but enough to make it dirty. Well anywho...GOOD MORNING! or AFTERNOON. Really its afternoon now because it's past 12 o'clock but it's morning for me because i just woke up... Yeah wow big shocker there!! So right now eating some breakfast and i'm bored. Me and jemma were supposed to go to the beach today buts it's quite windy so maybe yes maybe no? Plus I don't even know if she is up yet. We always just wait till one of us is outside because we don't like knocking on each others doors lol And she hasn't put money on her phone on like forever so I think they shut it off so can't call her, but I left the front door open so she can see I'm sitting here and I'm awake. Usually I just wait for the smell of cigarrettes and I know either jemma or her mother is outside. Then I usually pop my head over the fence and say hi. But for now I'll just wait cuz her dogs aren't even outside and the door isn't even open.
Me and jemma

There is a pic of us before going out one night :)

So anywho the dogs are still here and slept with me last night in my room, and they were soo cute such cuddlebums which is exactly what I love!! except that lady kept licking me this morning. other than that they didn't really bother me at all last night. Gonna go take them for a walk soon but I was gonna wait for jemma to see if she wanted to go with and we could do another crazy walk with 5 dogs lol!! But before I forget I think I'll finally fill you in on what happened saturday! nothing that exciting but I took pictures!! Haha!

So around 6.30 met up with my mom and jason at the shopping center and then ended up watching the rest of the Ireland vs Wales rugby came. And i was in an irish bar watching it so win ireland won it got loud! lol I guess ireland hasn't beat wales in rugby in like 60 years? or 40? Can't remember. But anywho that was fun. Then later ate dinner and ran into Sandra and Ian and ended up sitting with them. My god is ian hilarious! we were all laughing so hard!! And then later we ended up in MacGowans and Irish bar which is really fun.

Ok ive been writing this blog for 3 hours because I've been trying to add pictures and its not working and I'm getting annoyed. So I'll try again later.

Oh and p.s. I HATE BOYS RIGHT NOW

Thank you :)

Frying like an egg

thats what it feels like right now!! my god it is so hot!! the sun is going down but right now its shining right on my balcony and im dying!! Gonna go shower soon because might be going out for dinner, well got some good news or bad news. It's past 4:30 and the person hasn't come to pick up the dogs. I'm happy because like I said I wouldnt mind keeping them a bit longer!! :D So then I cut their hair around their eyes and now they can actually see!! You wouldn't actually believe they had eyes under all that fur!! and me and my neighbor (who has 3 dogs right now) took all the dogs for a walk which was hilarious!! omg trying to walk 5 dogs and all the leashes getting tangled!! haha I'll bring the camera next time we take them for a walk. Speaking of walking, one of the fun things about living here is looking at the funny tourists! haha Ususally me and my mom sit on the front porch and take turns guessing where they are from! People from finland = the men always wear bandanas or the children look goth or emo. Norway = they have a backpack on them wherever they go and those sandals made for a lot of walking. Sweden= blond. lol The women wear leggings with everything!! England = a lil bit on the heavier side. Not trying to offend anyone but u come down here for about a month and you will know what I'm talking about! You will be able to spot them no problem! but here is a pic of some tourists I spotted which gave me a giggle!
The colorful tourists

gonna go jump in the shower check back later! ;)

Dogsitting

So our sunday night was spent with Moby and Lady, two little dogs we were dogsitting! After getting a call from our nieghbors (who themselves already have two dogs) asked if we could take care of their friends dogs,being their friends had to make an emergency flight back home. So at about 4:30 someone else will come to pick up the dogs. Which I wouldn't mind having them here a lil longer, lol! They are both so cute and SUCH CUDDLEBUMS!! they love the attention!!
me with moby and lady!

Rubber Ducky You're the one!

Just took a shower! Now I'm feeling all squeaky clean and refreshed!! So now I think either me and L <3 are going for a walk or going to meet up with my mom at the center where she is watching Ireland play football and hopefully get something to eat! I'm getting a lil hungry over here!! So I played around a lil more with the colors and its better. Just gonna learn more about it later, my head started hurting from being on the laptop too much lol. I kinda wanted to walk to this one area along the beach where u can go down by the water on the cliffy part and take some pictures, but that might have to wait until L gets back from his trip or do that tomorrow. But last time I forgot the camera which is typical!! That was when something funny happened. Now when I go probably nothing will happen. Well I'm bringing the camera everywhere I go nowadays because I think a blog is more fun when someone puts pics up from what they did that day! So I'm bringing my camera to take pics then can put up on here later for y'all to see!!

Rubber Ducky!!

So I jumped on the bandwagon

So I finally decided to make a myself a blog. I have had one before but this website looks a lil more fun! So for like the past HOUR AND A HALF I've been trying to figure out how to design it all. And right now its pretty basic and boring but hopefully after some research and playing around I will figure it out and be able to make it look better and more interesting! but for now I think I'm gonna head to the beach with L <3 I'll try more later today or tonight or tomorrow because I think we are going out tonight since L is leaving for 10 days on monday :(
