Bring it On Ike!

Well...the time is here. We are ready for a big storm ahead. I have never had the opportunity to sit through an actual big storm, but here comes my first opportunity. Hurrican Ike is hitting us tomorrow and I'm actually excited!

I know it sounds wierd but I'm so ready to sit this through. I have never been able to do something like this and in some wierd way I have this need to prove myself worthy of being able to take care of myself. I don't wanna prove it to anyone else but myself too. So, I say bring it on Ike. Let me show you what I'm made of and let me show you how I have the ability to take care of myself and function normally. And I truly believe there is nothing to be afraid of...especially knowing I have a faithful God to rely on in my darkest hour.

Bring it on Ike! I'm prepared to do this! WOOOO HOOOO!!!

(Don't judge me if that sounded dimented in the slightest of manners...it's just a personal goal to prove to myself...haha)

Is there a Dr. Brink in the room?

So, I just finished applying to HBU (Again). I'm curious to see how it will go for me going through this process WHILE I am still in the admissions office working myself. I think it will be helpful to students as I will know exactly how to walk through the process myself. It will be a good thing. Now, the next thing is to finally get a hold of that Nursing Professor! She is so stinkin hard to get a hold of.

Anywho...Finished Season 1 of Heroes last night!!! Awesome, Awesome, Awesome. Everyone should go see it. Heroes is such a thrill ride. It leaves you hanging on the edge after each episode and it is so well written that even the tiniest of details have a great significance. Well...I've gotta get back to work!

Hope this finds you all well! Laters!

Heroes/ Scrubs

You know...it's funny. The older I get the more I'm ready to pursue more dreams at once. Recently, with no explanation I've really been into chasing my dreams. I can't wait to start my nursing degree. So much so, that it's what I'm thinking about 75% of the time.

Then, 24% of my time is spent watching Heroes (I'm catching up on season 1 fixing to start season 2 and preparing for TV series season 3), wanting to be one of those guys, and spending time relaxing with family and friends. Life is soooo good right now. Such great vibes coming from all over the place. I'm happiest when I'm pursuing these dreams and these good things in my life that make me feel most complete. I've discovered that I have a really awesome core group of people that I spend my time with. The rest is just icing on the cake. Organizing all this chaos is rather difficult though.

Because... 1% of my time is spent actually working and organizing my life. I spend so much time enjoying life (which is not a bad thing at all) that I forget to do the rest of the important stuff, like working on my daily schedule. I used to do that a lot. Now, I really struggle putting that together. But I think that's one my goals today. Sometime, I'm gonna make a daily schedule to organize how I spend my time so I'm not feeling so pulled in so many directions and then allow it to change as I feel led to change it. It just makes me feel better about life when I do those things. I think I will do that soon.

So...Heroes and Scrubs....two AWESOME SHOWS!!!! If you haven't seen either...DO IT!!! Scrubs basically makes me more and more anxious about becoming a nurse (not that it's realistic at all, but it does make me anxious) and Heroes is just a an amazing show that is really well written and leaves you hanging on the edge each time. It's pretty much amazing.

I have so many dreams...
I'm gonna:
-Become a nurse
-Get married
-Have children
-Live up north for a while
-Take dancing classes
-Go hunting ever year
-Go sky diving
-Go on a cruise every once in a while
-Go snow skiing
-Do mission work every year
-Provide a stable environment for my children one day
-Travel around the world and see different cultures
-Learn two different languages (well)
-Get better at the guitar
-Write enough music to make a CD
-Record a CD
-Live life in the moment
-Do stupid things
-Enjoy time with family and friends

I have a huge list I've been compiling over the last few years. It's gonna get done before I kick the bucket too. And even if it doesn't. I will have lived an amazing life just trying to live them out. I highly suggest this to anyone who dares to dream and dares to dream big!

Adios mi amigos! Dream Well!!!

P.S.---Thanks for listening to my ranting...I know this post had to be so random and jumped all over the place. I tend to do that when I get excited. haha. Peace!
