Damn, Long Time No See!

So I guess it has been 3 or four months since I have posted anything on my blog. Figured it was long over due. I am in my final class for my BSM program and it ends April 20th. Only a few more weeks and I will be edumacated! Yay! Also, on the 24th is Britney! I can't wait, I have been dying inside with anticipation as gay as that is. Everyone gives me shit because "she lipsynchs" but honestly, I know that and don't care. No one goes ( I really hope this is true or they are going to be dissapointed) to her concerts expecting her to sing live, it is all about the show and the spectacle. I have seen her tour videos on You Tube and I am definetly getting every penny out of this and then some it is THAT GOOD. I have decided, due to the "economy" (or should I say the poor state of my pockets) that I will not be getting my little outfit but instead will go buy a tophat from a costume store, a feather boa, and get a shirt made that says TEAM BRITNEY to wear until I can get inside the stadium and buy a tour shirt. There is also a huge pre-concert bash going on from 4pm until the concert starts that I will take part in because honestly, why not? I have decided to walk for my degree and my graduation ceremony is July 18th at the UOP Stadium. This is an important step for my in my life. I am the first to get a college degree on both sides of my family and I have really worked hard to get to this point as much as I complain about the process or the system. I owe this to myself and I deserve this recognition. I had to shed a little tear in March because I would have been in the Bahama's had everything worked out but there is always next time. I am trying to get a Mexican cruise planned for the beginning of next year to give myself to save and plan for it. Disneyland is still on for my birthday July 25th and I will be visiting my little sister in California which will be nice since I kind of miss her. Janet's kids have come down to live with her which is fun because I love her kids and it is nice to see her getting the chance to be a full blown mommy again instead of a warden for her hormone enraged 16 year old LOL. It is also nice because my brother has someone to play with since she has a 6 year old son. I got a decrease at work....What can do you? It is what it is. With the way the economy is it has been hard to find jobs to apply for. A lot of places have put a hiring freeze on their positions so it is just a wait and see game for now. I plan on sticking with UOP until at least the end of the year so I can use up my current vacation time, get more in September, and start my MSP program. Oh yeah, I decided to go for my master program in psychology. I have really enjoyed those classes out of my bachelor program and figured it could apply to many different departments and positions. I have decided my next car will be an Audi A4 thanks to Katie lol. I went and test drove one and feel in love. I was so afraid of the horse power compared to my SUV that when the guy said to hit the gas I just built up the speed. I want to go test drive it again and really put it to the test! I will have to wait about a year or two before I can trade in my car and get my Audi because my credit took a severe nose dive after my foreclosure and I want time to rebuild my credit somewhat so I don't have a ridiculous interest rate or payment. I can't really remember what else I am forgetting or leaving out but I think this pretty much covers what has been going on in the last few months. I will be posting more on here now because I have a lot going on in the next few months.

Cha-Cha-Changes

So a few things have changed since I last posted to my blog. I am no longer going to go to the Bahamas on the cruise that I dreamed of...After crunching all the numbers it came out to be WAY more then I thought it would be (I was going to spend about $800-1000!!). So I decided to go to Vegas instead for a weekend in March. I have not been to Vegas since I was 17 so I am going to do it right this time. I am going to get drunk, get lap dances, and dance my ass off LOL. Plus, the countdown is on for Britney.....Only three more months!!!!! I can't wait! I have to wear elastics for my braces now but thankfully only at night but that does not mean they hurt any less. FREAKING SUCKS. I also gave up soda cold turkey. I am going on 2 weeks without a drop of soda. The first day was really rocky but it is not bad now. I had my first dream about soda last night which was pretty interesting. I actually felt guilty when I woke up! My sister is moving to California this weekend (me and my mom are driving her up there) to live with her boyfriend so we will be down one person in the home in Maricopa. Just me, my mom, and brother now. AND I am also going to Disneyland this summer for my birthday since I can get in for free and to make up for my lack of tanning in the Bahamas. I can't wait to see Mickey again! That is all for now. Adios!

Looking Forward to 2009




2009 seems to be off to a great start for me and it isn't even here yet! I get my braces off anywhere between Feb and April depending on how my teeth do in the next two visits. I will be going to see Britney in concert in April which is something I have wanted to do for over 5 years now. I will be going to the Bahamas in March and will finally be graduated with my BSM degree in March. Also some of the movies I have been anticipating are coming out next year! I'm talking Nororious, Underworld, Madea Goes to Jail, Watchmen, The Wolfman, Star Trek, Night at the Museum 2, Terminator, Ice Age 3, Wolverine, Transformers 2, Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, and Where the Wild Things Are. Good thing I have my suvenier cup and shirt for cheap soda and popcorn HAHA! All I can say is.....So far so good! I am really looking forward to all of these things and seeing what else 2009 has in store for me. Right now all I can think of is my cruise to the Bahamas and Britney's concern in April. Time to get my official comeback in gear so I can look fabulous, fly, and sexy for them! Operation get-Liz's-ass-in-shape begins now!!! I am terrified I won't be able to fit in a wetsuit and swim with the dolphins. Plus I need to lose some weight to fit into the outfit I plan on wearing to see Britney :)

I GOT THE GOLDEN TICKET!!!!






I GOT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I bought my tickets today for Britney! I am pumped! They were totally worth every penny and I will be so close to the stage!

Seriously, if she wipes her brow of sweat it will hit me in the face. That is how I roll!!! Me and Janet are going to go and we decided we are going to dress up like Britney when we go to the concert. I am going to be Ringmaster Britney (ringmaster hat, ringmaster jacket, black pants, black boots, and a long wavy blonde wig) and Janet will be Toxic Flgith Attendent Britney (blue flight attendent dress, flight attendent hat, little shoulder jacket, blonde wig, blue heels). I can't wait for April to hurry up and get here. Here are pictures of the costumes we are going to get for the concert (Janet's is a darker blue then in the Toxic video so we will have to do something about that). I also posted a picture of the arena and where I will be sitting ha-ha! Enjoy!!!!

It's Britney B!TCH


YEAHHHHH!!!!!!!!! I have officially died and gone to heaven, then come back to earth to re-live the awesomeness that is Ms. Britney Spears! Not only has she been returning to the scene with tons of appearances and performences but today marks a GLORIOUS day for me and Brit Fans everywhere. Today she dropped her latest cd Circus and announced her tour dates for next year. That's right people, me and Britney have a date on April 24th 2009! I have wanted to see her in concert since the Onyx Tour and it has been 5 years since she last toured for any of her music. This is going to be one of the best shows I have seen! She will also have to promote her last album Blackout during this tour since she didn't last year when it came out. In my opinion, Blackout was her BEST cd by far. Say what you want about her but I love her no matter what. I never stopped believing that she would come back. She may still be slightly crazy but I like it. I am a loyal Brit fan and have been since Slave 4 U. I like her grown up image and music. It is stuff I can shake my ass to in the clubs and I like it ;) Ticket Master has a pre-sale on her concert tickets today until Friday then on Saturday they are sold to the public so I will be getting my ticket by Thursday night. YEAHHHHH!!!! Expect more blogs and pics about this and other things going on for me next year.

Halloween














I know this is a little late but here are a few pictures of my brother Elijah and my nephew Ethan dressed up for Halloween. Elijah was really excited about his Optimus Prime costume. Ethan was Squirt from Finding Nemo, we got his costume when we went to Disneyland back in September. They both got tons of candy even though there weren't that many people handing out candy this year. I think there were about 4-5 houses down each block handing out candy which sucked but what can you do? Poor Ethan passed out for most of the trick or treating but thankfully we had him in the stroller so no one had to carry him around. I can't believe he is 8 months old! After we went through four blocks we went back home to help hand
out candy, Elijah really liked handing out the candy to the other kids which was cute!

What's New and What's to Come

This is just an update of what I have been up to in the last few weeks. Really I can't remember that far back so we will just start from 10/30 :) Thursday 10/30 was Cooper's bachelorette party which was AWESOME! We bar hopped down Mill Ave which is something I have never done before or ever really thought about doing. I wasn't too sure how it was going to turn out because there were about 20 chicks in the group which always make me a little nervous when there is that much estrogen in a room. Everyone got along great and we all had a lot of fun. We all wore blank tank tops with pink lettering that was hilarious (see if you can make it out in the picture) and "special" little name tags. I gave Coop 150% which wasn't too hard since I am such a light weight when it comes to drinking. We got a free shot of CRAP at one club (kid you not it tasted like cough syrup and brought back memories of when my mom used to have to chase me down and force it down my throat!) and did a little dancing to get the night started off right. By the end of the night I was so trashed I fell off of the toilet and laughed my ass off while my pants were still at my ankles. I really wish I had a picture to remember that because I have never been that drunk and plan on never revisiting that again! LOL. I can't party like that much because I am such a pansy when it comes to drinking and don't like the after effects (being really freaking thirsy, hang overs, headaches, sensitiveness to light, breaking out in pimples, etc). I have a rule, if I go out it has to be for a reason to celebrate, it can't just be to go out and get drunk and I think I chose a pretty good reason to go out. Cooper had the most fun which was the point and I am glad she went out with one last bang to celebrate and wave goodbye to her single days :) That will probably be the last time I go out and drink for at least another year HAHA. Friday was Halloween and a good day to sleep off the night before which I really needed after waking up from a nap. Saturday was the wedding and it was one of the fastest ceremonies EVER! It was awesome and fit Coop to the "t". The reception was really nice and she looked so pretty and happy. That was probably the most excitement I have had in a while. Other then that I am really counting down the days before the move and TWILIGHT comes out - only 13 days to go! I move on the same day the movie comes out! I haven't even started packing so I really need to start getting my butt up to do things otherwise I will be doing everything last minute. I am excited about the move but also sad because I will miss living with my sister and seeing the baby all the time, he is my little chunker and my buddy. That is it for now, enjoy some of the pictures I posted. I will post a couple other blogs in the next 13 days :)
