My eyes burn. Howard Stern.

I woke up today looking like this..

Pink eye? Allergies? I don't know what you are, but you itch.

But good news is today my friend Rachel went to the food bank and came back with a bunch of vitamin water for me, I've been dying for them since we got here but there way more expensive then back in the states.

Here are some pictures someone on base took of me and Trey before we went swimming this weekend.

My husband is such a stud.

I wish I had more to talk about but I don't.

Bummer.

Great Day

Today was an all around good day. I woke up with only a few hours of sleep because for some reason Trey and I haven't been sleeping very well. I wake up every few minutes and toss and turn. He even went out to sleep on the couch last night. But then I went to worship and one of my new great friends Selena told me that God had a word he wanted her to tell me and it was so great! She told me that I can hear Gods voice and that I shouldn't ever doubt it because when he speaks he means it. And that now I just have to figure out the difference between his voice and my own.

I basically had kitchen duty alone today and it was nice just to get a lot of stuff done.

Now Trey and I are watching The lady in the Water and it's pretty good.

I'm working on no longer grumbling, today it went very well :)

Listen to Black river kill by Blitzen Trapper! So good.

And I'm in the mood to bless someone. I think it's from God so I'm just praying about it until the time is right.

Good Morning Scarecrow

Today something funny happened. I took down the laundry yesterday off the line and since we live in a community there are always a million different peoples clothes hanging as well. And Trey got dressed and halfway through our day we realized that he was wearing someone else's underwear. I laughed so hard.

We decided on how we are going to spend our Valentines day this year. He bought me the boots which I'm going to post yet another picture of because I am soooo obsessed and I'm going to get him this dread wax that he wants and then dread his hair for him. Since our roommate will be out of town for two weeks we will have the house to ourselves so Trey is going to make me dinner and I'm going to buy an ice cream cake for dessert.

Today I was thinking about how my mom and dad always bought us something on Valenti

nes day and how my favorite year I got the LFO cd. I was such a weird kid, but its awesome to always have parents who support you.

Heres a look at what my new room looks like.

I'm trying to make it home as best as possible, and I'm having a hard time keeping it clean now that it isn't just me living in it. We have soo many fans in the room because at the moment we don't have an air-con. Ohh the joys of being in 90 degree weather.

My Valentine

My lovely husband bought me my Valentines day present today! Rather than waiting. He was going to buy me a fish to keep me company but I wanted these for so long, we figured that they would be about the same price in the long run.

I have been wanting these for so long.

:):):):)

This weekend was great. I felt like I really live here and I wasn't sad at all.

I just want to do an early post of how much I love my husband. I couldn't have asked for a better valentine & I'm so excited to spend the special day with him as my husband! (This will be our first one.)

Growing Pains

I went to the grocery today and now I'm snacking on some Baba-Ganouj. It's so tasty and I got a POM tea. (Just like being home)

THE BEST THING IN THE WORLD HAPPENED TODAY.

Just as an insider I am in the middle of nowhere in Australia and I found online that in May, mind you thats when my birthday is. That there is a music festival in the town that I am currently living.

GUESS WHO WILL BE THERE.

Only the greatest: Tegan and Sara, Architecture in Helsinki, Empire of the Sun, Spoon, And Vampire weekend. (There's a lot more but those are just the ones I'm so pumped on)

I saw Tegan and Sara awhile back with my best friends at Bogarts in Cincinnati, Ohio and they were incredible and did an encore of Living room. My favorite song by then.

Trey has agreed that although the tickets are

pricey thats what were doing for my birthday this year and we will be purchasing them next week.

What a great husband I have!

Oh and ps. its Box Jellyfish season here. They're so cool looking..but fatal.

And I'm a freak and google things just to make myself worry more.

Meet Me in Outer-Space

Feel better babygirl.

Thank God for skype.

Tonight I saw the faces of my beloved Courtney Mason, Taylor Frommeyer, & Alison Ellis (plus her budlight) It made me feel astatic.

It makes me feel better knowing that sometimes when I'm bored that its okay because so are they.

I've got to put my heart into it.

Tonight I finally realized that if I don't open my heart I'm going to never feel better.

I've committed to this so I need to go at it whole heartedly.

I'm going to do something to mark the day I put to rest my bad attitude and list things that I'm really, really grateful for..

-My lovely husband and the past 4 years that I've gotten to know everything about him.

-His efforts in always making me happy. Even if that means eating McDonalds with me every day.

-My kind hearted, great mom for letting me be who I want, no ma

tter how weird that was.

-My lovely sister.

-Both my puppies.

-My new flat and all the gifts people have to given to make this home.

-My dad, for always making me laugh.

-The opportunity to start fresh in Australia...but always having Ohio as my home.

-The spiritual guidance and great friendship I get from my best-friend Courtney.

-Never being able to understand Hannah Johnson, but loving her enough not to care.

-The love hate relationship I have with Taylor. (mostly love)

-Sleep
