「Do It!」★

おはようございます!

Yesterday was a little busy. My dad got discharged from the hospital so my sister and I went to visit with him. 

My aunt came down from Tampa so we also had the chance to visit a little with her too. She made up two very large bags of stuff for me to take back down to FIU. It was extremely thoughtful of her!

My dad looked pretty wiped out and a little embarrassed. The import part however, is that as long as he maintains a healthy lifestyle he should be fine. He is pretty weak right now though.

He had suddenly asked me to mow the lawn for him because my step-mom was insisting that she would and she's really not in the physical condition to do it either. I couldn't and wouldn't have argued anyways. It was really hot and I forgot how much it sucked to mow the lawn but I am very glad I could do something for him.

We had a little lunch and then later on my step-mom took me up to the shopping plaza. She wanted to find a French Press and I wanted to look at clothes. In the end I may have overspent just a little..but I bought some really cute shirts and blouses!

She bought me a French Press and this morning I gave it a whirl but I definitely need some practice before I break it out to the world.

Today I'm doing work for Pat in the backyard and cleaning in her sister's home. It's going to be a long day for sure! Thursday, Friday and Saturday I am also going to be working. It's going to be a long week, I just want to speed up everything!

Since my dad needs to rest up, I'm going to try and work a little next week too. I need to save up and do what I can before I go back down to school.

So, I felt pretty drained and overwhelmed last night but this morning I feel powerful! (Is that the coffee talking?)

がんばりますね!

こんにちは~

Yesterday went pretty smoothly.

I worked for a few hours then came home and rested. 

My mom and I decided to go out to eat but we didn't end up going until later.


We ended up going to TGIF and she treated us which was really nice. We don't usually have the money or the time to all get together like that, so it was refreshing. 

I felt a lot more yesterday about everything going out. 

It's been awhile since I've been home on a Saturday night so I thought I might get a little bummed out. Of course, I really wanted to go see 好きな人 sometime soon.

Instead, にし and I decided to watch the Twilight Zone! She's such a cutie pie just sitting behind my laptop on the desk.


She is such a sassy cat! Anyways, I've been pretty relaxed so far and I'm happy for it.

I didn't even get upset when 好きな人 texted me late and said he'd be working through the week. That leaves pretty much no time to see him before school starts but at the same time it's a relief.

I can make plans to work more this week and completely focus on getting stuff ready for school.

Of course I worry about him though. He has pretty long days and I think he's overdoing it a little but I do understand. I just don't feel as affected as I thought I'd be.

It's definitely a good thing though. I'll just have to go with the flow and I think being understanding will pay off.

So! Later today I am going to do a little shopping for some school supplies. I'd like to get up at a decent time and even take a jog (though I always say that!)

Hopefully everything will go smoothly with my father too. That's definitely on my mind. At this point I am ready to start up classes again and get into a normal routine. 

I know I am going to miss being at home but I need to get a move on too.

This semester should bring a lot of interesting opportunities I think!

I'm just going to post a small update for this morning. 

Actually, I should be asleep!

So, the past few weeks have been a little rough. I usually like to blog about the happy stuff with a lot of photos and something new to talk about.

I have a little over two weeks left until school begins and I feel like so much has been happening!

I've spent some time in Orlando, I've worked a little and there have been quite a few problems at home.

I feel like my money just comes and goes so quickly. It's partially my fault, partially responsibilities at home to help out my family.

I feel stuck in the middle sometimes and a little helpless.

This week I was supposed to work a little with Pat but it kept getting cancelled which had me sitting around a lot and thinking!

On Wednesday I had promised my mother's friend to go to our small water park here. She had free tickets and it was her birthday. I had a pretty good time and I didn't really burn at all which is great!



Thursday work was cancelled again so I stayed inside and cleaned up the house. Yesterday I stayed around the house as well and slept.

Staying inside so much really started taking a toll on me. I wanted to eat more and just sleep. I feel very thoughtful and kind of irritable.

So, I tried to make a couple plans but they didn't end up working out. Instead I went for a jog to clear my head. In the end, that was the best decision. I felt a lot more relieved and less irritated. 

I realize it really bothers me when I don't have something to focus on, especially when there's a lot of difficult stuff going on. 

So, for the last two weeks I'm going to try to keep as busy as possible (even on days when I don't work or clean). I have to keep my mind preoccupied.

I got a little over 4 miles in today and kept going until my leg hurt. It was really beautiful out!

I have a bit of a schedule for the next two weeks already. My top priority is fitting in as much work as possible.

I'm trying to prioritize and think of these things first. I really wish I would have saved up more this summer..but, I had fun.

Tonight I'll be using my worry dolls though. So much stuff going on. I know it will all clear up.
