One Week Later

I didn't realize that the last time I made a post was a week ago! I have recovered from the US loss in World Cup soccer action. I am rooting for Germany! I watched them school England and had my Germany flag in hand while cheering from my living room! I am just so happy that the World Cup has had such intense and enjoyable games as well as incredible performances from known and unknown players! I have enjoyed how involved the fans from all over the world have gotten. I love the costumes and outfits!

In other news, I finally went out and bought a planner! It's a lot bigger than my SEMO one was, but now I can get busy again and be able to fill up my days with ease. I really love it. It has a beach theme and it starts on July! I have been lost without my planner! I hope that my new planner with go along with my new life, being in a transition period between my career life and college graduate. I also got some little post-its so that I can put positive words on them to motivate me and get my days started off on the right foot! I am excited. I can't wait to see what is in store for me in the near future! I'm really up for anything.

In the job search, I have been considering looking into jobs that are related to sports. I have always loved sports and now more than ever. I have been able to watch sports more in the past month than I did in the past four years of college! I love how sports can bring people together. For instance, I talk to my brother every day about the World Cup matches. We are a 1,000 miles away, but we have been able to enjoy the Cup together. We sometimes watch the matches together while talking on the phone. We call each other during the Half-time report and at the end of the games. It has been great to feel as though we are closer to each other than we actually are. I know that distance is not was defined if you and a friend, family member or loved one are close. I have been far away from my family for a few years, and I have only gotten closer to them!

In music news, tomorrow will be the anniversary of my guitar, Declan! I will officially have my guitar for 1 month! I can't believe it. I'm so glad that I bought it. I have been working on my speed going through scales. I still have a long way to go, but I really enjoy playing and just feeling like my guitar and I fit together! I am suppose to be singing at one of my sister's wedding and I would really like to be able to singing and play the guitar for it! I know that I can do anything I put my mind to so I am really excited to set this goal and complete it.

Well that's all that I have for now. Can't believe July is almost here. I will be spending time with my best friend, Tanya! I went there last year and it should be a great time. Hope that you enjoy the rest of the week!

I'll keep you updated on the World Cup and everything else going on in my life.
