Seattle, Life and School

by Courtney Elizabeth · July 31, 2006 · Life ·

Weekend before last, Incog and I went to Seattle….:kiss:…OMG, I love Seattle…I like the people *so far*…I like the ocean…and I like the homes. :woohoo: Seattle is muy bueno.

:camera: – I added photos from our trip.

School is…..still in session. *sigh*. Yep…summer session has lasted at least 10 weeks so far. I believe it’s actually 12 weeks total. :shocked: At one point, I had 3 classes going at once…I’m glad that the number is slowly dwindling. God’s been watchin over me. :pray:

I’m still on the weightloss kick..and to be honest, with all that’s been going on, I havent really been as faithful to it as I would have liked…eh…but what can ya do….:cry:. I can still fit the bridesmaid dress and that’s all that matters right? :wtf:

I hope to be updating more as August moves forward…I’m really going to try this time. icon smile Seattle, Life and School Promise!

If I’m not posting on here…you can ALWAYS find and JOIN me…at Imgrown.com. *Quick Plug* I know some of you have already joined, but….there are some of you who havent. :hissy: It’s a great forum, with great people…Im sure you’ll have fun. icon razz Seattle, Life and School

Anyhow, stay blessed!

4th of July and Other Things

by Courtney Elizabeth · July 5, 2006 · Life ·

Wow…what a weekend. We did a lot this weekend, and it felt good to get my mind off of school for once. *sigh*

Saturday, we spent the morning getting things together, to head out to my mom’s house. At 5pm, my cousin Timmy got married at the Mandalay Bay Resorts in Oxnard. :dance: It’s so weird to think of us all growing up, ya know? Anyways, everyone looked great! I uploaded the photos to the gallery for you.

On Sunday, Incog and I chilled and relaxed for most of the day. Of course, we went to Church in the morning, but after that…we were still a little tired from the night before. After we rested, we went to Griffith Park Observatory and walked around. I havent been there since….1998, so it was cool to be able to walk around up there.

Tuesday, I worked. :uhh:

Tuesday, the 4th of July, we went to the Dodger Game for the Game & for the fireworks that followed. I dont think i’ve ever seen a better Firework show. It seemed pretty long…unlike most shows. lol We had really good seats too. We were on the 3rd base line, right above the Field Boxes. :thumbsup:

I have to admit that I didnt want the weekend to end. It means, Papers and Schoolwork….and work. But I AM looking forward to July 21st. I tell you that much. It’s a long awaited mini-vaca. :woohoo: My mind has been on so many things lately…it’s so draining. I wish I could type it out…but that’s a protected post, for another day, and another time. Plus, I just dont have the brain power right now.

I hope that you all enjoyed your weekends…and that they were fun, safe, and filled with Love.
Stay Blessed.

I Cant Sleep.

by Courtney Elizabeth · June 24, 2006 · Life ·

I’m sittin here thinking about where I’ve been over the past few years…things I’ve done. I’ve been to the Bahamas and back…Costa Rica…God, Texas…who woulda thought I woulda gone to texas to see the RHOmeos with the sorors. It wasnt even about the RHOmeos *sorry guys*…it was just about bein around the sorors and trying to lose the stigma of the “in” soror…taking photos *God, I love taking photos*. I even went to Atlanta, on a dum-dum trip. Don’t ask…won’t tell.

Before, when I couldn’t sleep…I’d run to my computer and program my little heart out. It was like…a quick fix. I’d program til my eyes would start to water, and I’d have to shut them. I’m a nerd. I know it. Or I’d write poetry and then re-read it in the morning and think, “WTF was I trippin on last night?” I’m such a dweebo.

So, I’m sittin here lookin around the office. I cleaned up today because one of my coworkers came over to install a router so that I can use my VOIP phone for work, at home. I finally put up all of the photos that I had at the old apartment…and even a new one of my grandparents that I took at Thanksgiving last year. They look so cute. That’s pure and unconditonal love right there. I even put back up the group photo that contains all the people I like, and a broad that I dont like, just because I look cute, and I can cover her face up with a magnet. *Simple Problem Fixed* I’m such a brat.

And yet and still…even though I’m all these things…*Nerd, Dweebo, Brat*…I cant help but wonder what’s next for me. If there’s one thing I’ve learned over the past few years is that I can’t really PLAN things. They just…happen. And you either have to roll with it, or get rolled over. I’ve also learned that no matter how many times trying things have been thrown my way, I’ve managed to lean on God, and let him guide me through.

For the immediate future, I’d like to throw a shoe at one of my professor’s head. But since I can’t do that…maybe I’ll just sit there and soak in what he has to say and try to find a way to apply it. I’ll continue to move forward with my plan to finish in 1 year instead of 2.5 because, I dont like school. No one likes being in school from 6 o’clock to 10 o’clock at night after they’ve worked all day. I dont want to be doing this for ever.

Then maybe I’ll plan a trip somewhere….mmmmm….maybe it’s time to go back to Barbados and reconnect with the family. Or…visit New York for the first time – ride the subway, go to a Broadway play. Or…Europe maybe? I’m a little hesitant with the war and all…but maybe…just maybe.

One thing is for sure. I’ll never stop being me….all of me *Nerd, Dweebo, Brat*….it’s like a ….a….super dork mix….yeah….a CUTE super dork mix.

Good Night…stay blessed.

Lion King Tickets!

by Courtney Elizabeth · June 21, 2006 · Life ·

Welp…as you know, I havent really been posting lately, with classes and work and LIFE goin on. Yesterday, I secured some Lion King Tickets for the Saturday before Christmas. :curtsey: I was so hurt last year, because by the time I went to get tickets, all the VIP and Regular Tickets were gone. icon surprised Lion King Tickets! uch: I decided to get on top of it this year. I’m pretty sure that we’ll have a great time. It’ll be a good Pre-Graduation gift to myself as well. :woohoo:

With the way things are going, I SHOULD be graduating in January. But you know, God says…”Make Plans, and I’ll show you what mine are”…so I’m trying to just let things be what they will be..in ALL aspects of my life. :sun:

I’ve still got until July 1 to fit into this dress for my cousin’s wedding. I purposely bought it a size smaller so that I would have some type of motivation. I can fit it, and it zips, but it’s still a little snug in places that I know that I need to work on…..more motivation. The next photos you see of me will be at the wedding, so hopefully, I’ll be looking and weighing in a little slimmer.

Welp, I hope that all is well with everyone. Continue to pray for me, as I for you….Stay Blessed!

IMG 2181 Happy 3 Years CE.COM!!

Yeah, it’s been that long…although, it doesnt seem like it.
Sorry that I havent updated in such a long time…I’ve kind of been dealing with personal things. Haven’t really felt like posting or photographing. :camera:
Speaking of which…

Last Thursday, I realized that I couldnt find my camera. Yeah, the Canon Powershot SD30 that I had purchased in October. My first thought was “Oh God..what the heck!”. I couldn’t figure it out. I thought I had left it somewhere at work on the day that I went into the office. Then I thought that I had left my bag open somewhere and maybe someone took it. By Monday, I had given up and decided to just buy a new one. You know me and cameras. :blush: I can’t not have a small camera to whip out in case I “see” something. I, of course, still have the big one, but I only take that on trips and times where there is SERIOUS PHOTO-OPING going on. In any case, Incog and I drove to Best Buy and I purchased the Canon Powershot SD630. I like it. HUGE 3inch screen, Panoramic shots, and 8 MegaPixels…super cute and small…But uhh….

Yesterday, *Tuesday* I was rummaging through my gym bag, and found the camera that I lost. :shocked: I’m a dweeb. :loser:
Welp, so the story goes, I’m selling the Powershot SD30 on Ebay and keeping the Newer One. Only those serious need apply.

SO I’ve decided to start living a healthier lifestyle. I’ve visited an inner health center, and conferred with other doctors and I’m SERIOUS about getting my health and body back to the way it needs to be. There are two weddings coming up that I need to definately be in shape for, one of which, I’m the bridesmaid, so I really need to get it together by August. :wtf: I’m on a mission. :surprised:

As before, I dont plan on posting any substantial self-portraits until I “feel” presentable. :thumbsup:

I hope you all have had a great past few weeks! Stay blessed!
