i didnt feel so bad
.....after i stumbled across this today
its been a month since ive written on here! geez. time is flying. 2010 is almost over. good thing, because im pretty over it. although....
the past month has been pretty great. the main events:
*Andrew arrived back in the USA and for the first time since August 2009, we are in America together. Hooray! It has been even better than I expected having him home.
*I started a job that I will be keeping for quite some time. Part-time nanny for a great family right down the street (5 minutes on my bike exactly!) 8 month old and 2 year old. Both ADORABLE. Hours are great, except Mondays are from 7:30 am to 5:30 pm. Long day. But no complaints- it is relaxed and the whole family is very respectful and appreciative. Big change from that crazy lady that fired me for spraining my ankle!
*Still interning with the Art Therapy Institute of North Carolina. It was 3 days a week, but has been cut to 2 because of my Monday work hours. I am growing more and more attached to these kids, they are all really amazing. This is the project I am working with: CHECK IT
*Freaking out over the SNOW that came last Saturday. I had not seen snow since March of 2009, so I went completely ape-shit when I saw snow-flakes. Christmas season in the Northern Hemisphere = A MUST. So glad I'm not sweating my life out in Cape Town, though that was a wonderful experience.
*realizing its ok if i dont go to art therapy school next year, if i dont move to boston or new york. i can stay put for a second and pay my bills like a big girl.
Soooooo Friday night and I'm here on the couch...... Tis the season for snuggling up to my furnace (the only source of heat in my house, which was built in the 30's...... which made the snow even more fun/freezing) and drinking tea and staring at the beautiful Christmas tree my roommates got while listening to jazzy piano covers of Christmas songs. I do all of this, of course, as I drool like a 14 year old girl over youtube videos of a particular Puerto-Rican/Filipino hottie who can play the piano and SANG.

I have also developed a celebrity crush on this guy:
Bruno Mars
Probably because my introduction to him was a music video (where this photo is from) in which he is all dressed up and pulls a piano around town.
you can play for me any day, baby.
