A Post About Whatever, Just Becuse!

Well, I have to get up early tomorrow for work, and so I can't stay up to late, so at this point, a movie is out of the question, but I'm not going to bed just yet, so I decided I should make a post on my blog, and here it is.

Work: Work is the same, I don't want to be there, but I don't know where I wanna be. I search job listing, but nothing appeals to me, I just don't know where I belong in the career scheme on things. A few months back (while dealing with this dilemma) I asked my self this question... "Audrey, if you didn't have to work, and time and money were not an issue, what would you do?" The answer I gave myself... "Travel and workout." Well, I don't know that I would love many of the availible jobs involving travel (stewardess, cruise ship employee, etc) for multiple reasons, so that leaves working out. I think it would be fun to get paid to workout, to teach classes or what have you, but I don't see myself as someone suited for that job per se. I could probably get to that point, but I think I have work to do. SO, until then, I'm staying where I am I suppose...

School: DONE! As you all know, I finished school last fall (2008), but have yet to put my degree to use. I ponder the possibility of going beack to school for a Masters or another Bachelors, but I'm not sure I'm ready to go back yet, plus I want to get rid of my student loans first.

Church: I'm currently a Visiting Teaching Coordinator, but not much has happened with that calling yet, we were going through transition in our ward, and then only just this last sunday got our assignments, so not a hard calling, but I haven't done much with it yet. I have made a BUNCH of goals this year, 2 of which are, to read my scriptures everyday (so far, so good), and attend the temple (for baptisms) once a week (so far, so good). I've made these goals before, but I've never done so well for so long, so I hope to do it this time and make it a perminate habit, wish my luck.

Health: I am healthy. I had a cold for a couple of weeks, thanks to Miss Grace-Face, but I am over it now. I workout everyday (except sunday), and I'm doing really well with that and eating well. I've never been good at eating well and working out simultaniously, but I am doing it now, and I've lost 7 lbs since the first of the year, so I'm down to 153 lbs. WAHOO! I still have some work to do though. :)

Love Life: Well, what can I say, if someone wanted to write a love story about my life, they may only have enough material for a title page... The Absence of Romance.
I was thinking about this yesterday, I remember when I was young, I ALWAYS liked someone, even if only for a short time. I used to use the crush I had, on whatever guys of the time it was, to help motivate me to get up and get ready for school (when I would much rather be sleeping) by reminding myself that I would probably see that person, and I would leap from bed to get ready so I could see them. :) Now days, it all me getting me up in the morning, no hopes of seeing that special someone to light a fire under me and get me moving. It's kinda boring. I mean, there have been guys here and there that I saw potential in, but they always proved to be disappointing.
There were a couple of guys for a little while, but there were so passive about asking girls out (despite being socail butterflies) that if I didn't know better, I'd think they were gay. :-S
I know there are other girls interested in these guys too, but they are not proactive daters. Why are the more desirable guys the ones that are unreceptive, and the not so desirable guys are all over the playing field? An interesting conundrum.
I would like to be interested in someone, it would be something exciting to throw into the boring day to day sameness of my life, but alas, males are bums. :) I say that with a smile on my face, I'm not upset, just bored with dating, and would like person to stand out and be different from all the sameness I see when I look at the single guys around me, but until then, I'm really just fine working to improve myself and experience other aspects of life.

Travel: 10.5 weeks till we sail the high seas again. I'm so super excited. There are 11 of us going, and I think it's going to be a blast. I've normally been one to enjoy male friends rather than female because males are (typically) less dramatic, and more fun/funny, but I have been lucky enough to have some wonderful, fun, sensible female friends throughout my life, and these girls are some of them. I'm certain to have a blast on this trip with these great ladies. :)

Well, it's time to get ready for bed, 4:00 comes early. :)

  1. What a great post! You, my darling, know how to write an entertaining blog.
    I have something to say: You are beyond ready for teaching aerobics/personal trainer, anything. You live what you would be teaching. Not everyone does that. You are so beyond where I was 5 years ago when I did it. I did it just to try - and love it. You will be a natural!! You have no work to do. I do know that Weber is not offering a group certification so we'd have to go on our own to a different gym. It's really no problem.
    congratulations on doing your goals so well! You are amazing!! I especially love the temple every week. That is so great!
    I love your love life narrative - I say amen sister! I know that guy will stand out soon. You know what you want!
    I am so excited for you for your trip! Please let me know how it goes!

  2. Oh thanks! You are so kind, too kind! :) I really didn't think that my blog posts were all that entertaining, I really thought that perhaps they were quite dull... but you and my cousin both told me today that they are entertaining, so thanks to both of you, I'm glad to hear I'm not the mayor of Boreville!:)

  3. I must agree with your friend Nikki, every thing she said, and yes you are entertaining! you are good at writing.

    you could be a personal trainer or aerobics instructor. Do it!

    As far as dating goes, I seriously, seriously think you need to go back to LDS singles, or mingles. I know you don't want to, but it could be a good thing! most people meet their mates from work, school or church, but if that isn't working, then you should go out side this box and try it out. Maybe your mate is in another state or even country (Hemi) It's worth a try. you think it's only for desperate people, but I say no it's for people who want to have fun dating and possibly finding the one! you never know. Give it a try!

  4. Thank you... and no thank you. I'm not THAT bored. Never speak of it again, or I shall send thee to the gallows! ;)
