So I am a lil' crazy...

I just got home from visiting my Mom. It's my Spring Bring and one of my childhood friends got married this weekend so I went down the first weekend of Spring Break. I got to see my wonderful dad and spent some quality time before he had to leave that next morning to go to a bible convention in San Luis Mexico.
I got to see my best friend in the world Marisol. We usually spend every Valentine's together but we didn't get to this year so we just exchanged our Valentine's almost a month later. We ate some yummy Bob's Tacos and enjoyed some time together before she had to hit the books to study for midterms.
I also got to spend a lot of time with Mom. Last night we jammed out on the karaoke machine and had such an awesome time. We laughed so hard and just acted crazy. Seriously is ANYONE were to have seen us they would have thought my mom and I would have taken some shots of tequila or something. But oh no, it's all natural... we are just crazy ha ha. It's great though I laughed some calories off and we had a good time singing and dancing. "Sing and dance like no one is watching!!"... and for our sake, we hope no one was watching!

One step closer to paradise

So I did it... I bought my ONE-WAY ticket to Hawaii last night!!! It's crazy to think that June 23rd I am boarding a plane and moving to Hawaii (*crossing fingers*). I've been very VERY nervous about this and everyone else has been telling me get over it and that they would love to be in my shoes so instead I'm just taking it in and saying yes... I'm going to embrace this opportunity and go with it instead of being so... stressed.
I'm thinking I need to get a nice tan before I even think about boarding so that way I might blend in a bit more instead of being this not very tan Mexican girl that I am, haha. I also bought a GIGANTIC suit case yesterday called the "Mammoth" because we are literally packing our bags and going. NUTS huh?
I'm going to be a VERY busy girl in June. I'm having to move out of my apartment, move out of my classroom, figure out what I'm going to do with all my stuff and all of this without Nathan. Last year Nathan and I were at the school till 12:30 AM packing up my classroom and that was both of our efforts I am DREADING this part of doing it on my own and being hindered by my never ending shoulder issue. Also, I'm going to do a lot of visiting before I leave. Because I'm not planning on taking trips back to Texas since it's not cheap and well... I've faced the facts that Nathan and I will be more like having to make ourselves eat SPAM instead of going out to eat seafood due to money issues. We'll be on a strict budget I'm sure so... I'm hoping to make stops in Laredo, Richmond, Mexico, and Del Rio so we will see how that goes.
