The Future?

Ever wonder what the future may hold? Well I'm sure wondering that right about now. I don't know what I'm doing with my life and I don't necessarily like making decisions. Actually I began to think about it the other day and realized I have never really made huge decisions in my life. Yes I decided where I was going to college but that was more of a OWU comes to youth camp, that's where my friends planned to go and so that was that. I "chose" to major in business management and leadership, but that was more of a I don't know what I want to do and I will take the safe route and go with business I can do anything with that. But then I will go back a little further my first job, they needed someone my friend worked there brought me the application and I got the job. Oh but it doesn't stop with that job I have realized that every job I have had is because other people have called and said "Nikki i know someone who needs help and I know you need a job. Yes I know that happens for a lot of people but I can't go through my entire life just going with whatever may come my way. I guess I need to go out of my way and find something that I want to do and will really enjoy doing and go for it, the only drawl back is I have no idea what I want to do with my life. Oh the joys of being a "grown up".

Out of Shape!

So after watching the Olympics and seeing the toned bodies of the womens sand volleyball players or the track runners I have decided that im out of shape. Ok well i already knew that but I have become inspired to not be so fat and lazy. One might wonder what I have done to change this, well at this point not too much. I ate a salad for lunch yesterday, and not alot for dinner tonight. But i did go on a short bike ride tonight it was probably about a mile and a half, but hey its a start. Tomorrow I get to help Becca move into the dorms, walking up the stairs to the 4th floor will be a workout, so hopefully I will gradually get into some sort of routine. I just have to not be so lazy!

Olympics make me tired!

I think its about time for the Olympics to end, then just maybe I can get some sleep again. I'm not saying I get enough sleep when they Olympics aren't on but, how can one possible go to sleep when Michael Phelps is breaking all kinds of world records and winning 8 gold medals? Or when May and Walsh are dominating in volleyball? Or when gymnast are really earning a gold medal but getting rewarded with only silver? Oh you can't forget about the trampoline too. I do love the Olympics but I love my sleep as well. Only a few more days then I won't have to worry about this again for another 4 years... Ok or 2 when the winter Olympics are on.

My shirt from third grade

I have enough clothes that I am able to go without doing laundry for a month or two, but yet i think i don't have enough. Maybe its not that i don't think i have enough, maybe its more that i just like shopping, ok let me rephrase that i love shopping. So my problem is that when i buy new clothes i never get rid of any of the old ones, and when i say never i do truly mean never.

I have one shirt that I have cherished for a long time now. I remember the day i got the shirt, my grandma had taken me shopping for one outfit, well there were two that i just fell in love with. So my grandma (who spoiled me beyond belief) gave in and told me to go ahead and get both outfits, her only stipulation was that i had to promise that i would wear them both, so of course I'm going to agree I mean after all i was going into third grade. Well one outfit i wore a little bit i mean I'm sure my grandma didn't waste any money buying it for me, but the other outfit i just couldn't get enough of. Well i stopped wearing the shorts to the outfit but the shirt i just loved! But that was back when i was in third grade there should be a time when the shirt doesn't fit me anymore right? Well the shirt still fits me, maybe not quite the same fit as it used to but i can still wear it. So I'm going to turn over a new leaf and I'm going to finally retire my old shirt from third grade, but don't worry i plan on making a t-shirt quilt someday and it will definitely be the center square! So here it is my shirt from third grade goodbye old shirt :'(
