It's been 6 weeks since I said goodbye to Oregon.
Six of the hardest weeks of my life. A roller coaster ride of emotions. Wondering at times if I made the right choice for myself in moving up here, missing my friends and my family. Missing my old job when I had savings and some money to do with as I wanted. Missing having a car to get around. Missing the life I had created for myself. I wanted to give up on the journey I had set out on because I was feeling sorry for myself. I didn't have anything to fight for here and while Oregon wasn't much, it was still "mine."
I had a reality check from a few friends. It wasn't really easy to hear but I needed to hear it. I came up here to do for me. To live my life and stop letting it pass me by. In my heart Oregon will always be home to me. But, Oregon will always be there too. And for now, I need to be here.

It's been a minute....
Since i've written anything for cyber space. Would love to say i've been so darn busy with my life that I just haven't had a free moment to spare.
Not true. I've just been avoiding coming on here as I really haven't had much to say.
It's fall here in the last fronteir. Fall here feels like the start of winter in Oregon so i'm going to be in for one cold ass reality check the first time the snow falls.
The leaves are turning color though the pine trees remain green. The sun is starting to set about 6:30. Another reality i'll be facing is no sun. I'll go to work when it's dark and come home when it's dark. Not looking forward to that.
I've been able to get out and actually see Alaska and the beauty that God has created and it is just as beautiful if not more than I ever imagined.
As far as adventure goes, there hasn't been too much. I did meet a guy though and he seems really nice. He's a cutie for sure. Kind of reminds me of Kenny Chesney ( he doesn't care much for country either. Depressing. ) I love..love...love country music. Hell, then again my roomies don't like country all that much either. How the hell can you live here and NOT like country I'll never understand!
There is a glacier by my work. It's so cool to be walking home and see the sun hit it. To see the moutains around me, the cool crisp air and to still be pinching myself that I'm living a dream of mine. The crows up here are HUGE!!!!! (random)
Anyways, for anybody actually reading this i'll try to live a more adventouse life so my blog is actually interesting. Until then.
