New moves

Within this last month a lot has happened and my life has changed so much.

Before leaving to go home for winter break, I got into a big mess and argument with my roommates, it was a small and dumb situation that turned huge. Anyway, with that having gone down I decided to move out when I got back to Bellingham and move to a new place.

I am so happy that I had decided to take winter quarter off from school, because I have no idea what I would have done if I had to take classes and deal with moving out of my house and finding somewhere new to live and come up with some crazy new plan.

When Adam and I came back from our trip in Colorado, I had immediately moved out of my house, literally, it took me two days to pack all my stuff up and move all of it out.

After that the hunt for a someone to take my place in my old house was still going on. This was not an easy task to do. I had to still try and communicate with the girls still in that house hold as well as try to be there to show a house with everyone else. Anyway, after about a month of trying to find someone to move in, a guy finally said he wanted to live there. Thank god.

Since he has decided to move in I have gotten my paperwork in and turned in my key, so I am finally done with that place!

Which left me to figure out what I was going to do now. Where will I live, is there anywhere to live...? Having it be just after the beginning of a new quarter, a lot of places were already taken, and a lot of other places were people like me trying to find someone to sublet their room in a house with other people. But having that bad experience with roommates, and honestly just wanting my own space to be able to call my own and not have to worry about anyone else or how my job and school life would effect another persons life, I decided that I want to find my own apartment.

It's the end of January and trying to find an apartment that isn't insanely expensive, or just not very nice, is challenging. I decided that with this time off and trying to find a place, I would go back home to work my ass off, make some money, and not have to worry about paying rent for a place that I settled for because there was nothing else.

For the past month I have been living with my boyfriend Adam and his three other roommates. They were so kind to not only let me keep all my stuff in their garage but they also let me live here while I figured my life out.

With all of this going on I have literally felt like my entire life is falling apart. Obviously it isn't, and I know that, but having everything happen all at once is a big change and it can effect someone in a very intense way. It's not easy to explain, and even if it was no one other than those who have gone through it could understand what that person is going through. All I can say is, try going through a situation where your roommates don't respect you and your job, lock you and your dog out of your home in 20 degree weather then send you snap chats of them beer bonging while you are locked out. On top of that they are rude and treat you like shit, turning your entire group of friends against you. I'll have you know this is part because I didn't really have time to hang out with all of them all the time, having work, school, and a dog to take care of. At the end of the day you just want alone time or time to spend with your significant other.

I'll spare you all the rest of the story because it's really not worth my time writing about, and I honestly don't care anymore because I am moving on with my life and only keeping those who are positive and have a great impact on who I am and where I am going in life.

Anyway, my life isn't falling apart. It's just a combination of all these little things going on that add up and you get sent into this chaotic mess.

Now, that I have a plan though I feel like I can go home get back on my feet, literally remove myself from Bellingham and everything that happened so that I can come back fresh and have a fresh start, only keeping those who truly care about me in my life.

Having made this decision, and deciding on when I am going back home and coming back, a friend had texted me about taking over her lease. Which would be the most incredible, and stress relieving thing that could possibly happen to me before leaving. Fingers crossed that everything goes right and this is possible.

The main point of this post is to give an update on my life, as well as say that instead of this blog being about the crazy adventures I planned on taking with my time off, it will be a place where I can reflect on life. A place where I can share what is going on, how I am doing, and a start to a new, more positive life.

I'm so excited to go home and work my butt of in Telluride for the rest of ski season, and then come back to both my boys (Adam and Rocko) for spring quarter!

I'll try to keep posting every week!
