Sometimes I hate change. I know it can be a good thing..but I'm having hard time dealing with what I feel is "different" or a change with one of my relationships. It may be all in my head, but it's just not like it used to be. It's not bad, I guess I just almost feel slightly neglected. I guess that happens sometimes in this case. It just makes me sad, and I think back to just a few months ago and a year ago, and how I was just happy and not in this "place"..I don't know. It's weird. I guess I can't worry about it, but I think about it and it just can drive me nuts.. I just miss my friend and the way things were before. I just want it all to be ok for me and to keep that relationship close.

Anyway, a year ago at this time, I was in Hawaii. Man, I miss that place. I have such wonderful memories from that place and that week that I spent out there. I loved it. I'll remember it forever. I'm grateful I was able to go and have that experience and vacation out there with my friend/friends. 

That's a picture from Busch Gardens of the group of us that went there last Friday. It was a lot of fun. So my vacation was a really great time. It was a week and a half that I really needed..just to be away, and try and relax, and just be normal with things somewhat. It turned out to be a really really nice time. The wedding in California was really nice. I got to see the Golden Gate Bridge, some of San Francisco, Fisherman's Wharf and some other spots. There was like 9 of us friends coming from Chicago, so it was really cool to hang out with everyone, and get to know some a lil better. Some of our rooms were adjoining, and me and my roommate, and three of the guys just left our doors open and used both our rooms together. It was cool how it worked out, since we're usually all together more anyway. We got to go to the rehearsal dinner and of course the wedding, which was fun. I caught the bouquet again. My second one this summer..lol. We went to Florida for a week also, but that was only 4 of us from California, going to Florida. We ended up having a stop in Las Vegas, which for some reason, none of us knew about, so I got to see the strip there from the airplane..lol.

Florida was great. The weather was so awesome!! 80s-90s degree weather and sunshine! Just what I love. We went to Disney World, and did some of the Magic Kingdom, Epcot, and MGM Studios. My friends took me on what they thought were a lot of the highlites, and good rides. And a good part of it was that we got in free! So I feel really blessed for that. I felt I saw and did a lot for one day. Also throughout the week, went to Sea World, and Busch Gardens. Went to a condo in Clearwater for a couple days, which was absolutely beautiful. This guys condo we stayed in was sooooo awesome!! It had a pool overlooking the beach, and our room overlooked the beach with a couple balconies to go out on. So I went swimming in the pool and the ocean    I got up earlier on Friday and Saturday morning to go walking on the beach alone..Saturday my friend came and met me out there though, and he and I went walking and running. That was really fun for me too. We also did some other things down there of course, like Citywalk, mini-golf, going out or just hanging out. Too much to type out right now..but that is the jist of my vacation...I thank God soooo much for the wonderful weather, fun time, and everything with it. I was so sad to come back home for various reasons..but I'll just deal with that now. I'm just grateful I had a wonderful time, and all worked out and felt normal.

Time is going too fast sometimes..

I don't know what to say. I don't think anyone does "xanga" all that much anymore..lol. I think I'm one of them. Although I do still check it or other peoples sites anyway. Ah, who knows. Well, not much to say or anything real new..at least not that I'm going to put on here right now. I'm just keeping busy during this summer, and trying to really enjoy this warm/hot weather. We all know I love the 80 and 90 degree weather! I have my birthday in August, and hopefully and God-willing my vacation in September. Plans are California a few days, and then to Florida for a week. I'm praying all works out with this, just like my good trips last year. It will be nice. Ok, that's all for now. Latah ya'll
