50 Randoms about Me

50 Randoms About Me 1. I’ve been married for two fantastic years to my best friend. I love my husband with all my heart and couldn’t possibly be any happier.
2. I’m extremely klutzy. I can trip over invisible cracks in the floor.
3. I once got a treble hook caught really close to the corner of my eye. I had to go the ER to get it removed.
4. Failure scares the hell out of me. I always try to succeed at everything I do and I’m extremely hard on myself when I fail at something.

5. I’m a day dreamer. I catch myself zoning out a lot. Lol

6. I used to have really bad depression. I went through a time where I hated waking every morning. I even prayed every night before I went to sleep. My prayer was to not wake up. I guess it's true that God's greatest gifts come in unanswered prayers.

7. Speaking of God and my depression spell. I lost almost all faith during that time. I was really sad and really worrying the ones around me. I eventually started to get that faith back. After meeting David, I realized that life really was worth living and that God really did have a plan for me. I see David as not only being my Husband and Best Friend. But he was also my angel that God sent to save me from myself.
8. I really want to go on a cruise someday.
9. I like my steaks rare.

10. I strive hard to have a clean and organized house but I don’t think that will ever happen.

11. I spoil my dogs as if they were our kids.

12. I want more than anything to be a mom. I just know it’s best to wait until we have careers and can provide the life for our child that he/she will deserve.

13. I love to scrapbook and do other crafts.

14. I recently made a vow to myself that once a week I would do something that I enjoy for myself.
15. I hate packing. I hate to pack to move, for trips, or even just overnight stays. I just hate doing it.
16. I’ve lost a lot of friends since high school. I used to have a ton of friends and now I really don’t have that money. I guess that’s what happens when you become an adult.

17. I love road trips.

18. I am a control freak with occasional OCD (so yes. I’m crazy. literally)

19. I tend to wear my heart on my sleeve

20. I’m not a girly-girl. Not at all. I’d take fishing and mud over glitter and make-up any day.

21. I have my Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology. I got that in December of 2009.
22. I am currently working towards my Master of Science degree in psychological services. I hope to have it by December 2011.
23. I really like my new job. The people I work with are great.
24. I want to get Lasik Eye surgery.

25. I miss my best friend.

26. I am really good at Math.

27. I love to read.

28. Nothing beats snuggling up and watching a movie with my husband.
29. I hate having my picture taken.
30. I absolutely hate being overweight. I’m working hard to change that.
31. I sometimes lack the motivation I need.

32. I would love to go to Hawaii.
33. I love the outdoors.
34. I can’t stand materialistic people. They annoy me.
35. I have stopped drinking real soda. I wish I could cut it out all together. But I’m down to just Diet Dr. Pepper.
36. I hate the taste of water. I drink it but it feels like I’m drinking medicine.
37. I really want to start going to church again. The church I like is in Coalgate though so it makes it a little difficult but David and I seriously need to get our butts into gear and go.
38. I am so burnt out on school. I wish I was done. I have started hating everything about it. People tell me to take a semester off but I know that would be the wrong thing to do. I’m worried if I slowed down then I’d quit. I just got to keep on pushing myself to finish.
39. I love broccoli. Especially w/ steamed rice and cheese sauce.

40. I could eat breakfast for every meal…every day.

41. I have anxiety problems. I stress too much and I worry too much. But that’s part of who I am and I just have to deal with it.

42. I don’t trust easily. I never have.
43. I am really close to my parents. I love them both and they have sacrificed a lot for me and I will be forever grateful for that.
44. I don’t give second chances as easily as I should. I used to. But that blew up in my face a few times…w/the same person… I guess I should second chances … just not third or forth. Or fifth… you get the picture.
45. I love the twilight books! All of them!
46. I even like the Twilight movies!

48. I love to cuddle.

50. I would love to completely redecorate my house. I get bored easily. Lol

My day of Scrapbooking

So I decided that since I was off work today and the hubby had to work that I should spend some time doing something I wanted. I didn't clean the house or run errands...instead I scrapbooked for several hours. It was awesome. I feel great. I know I'm not the greatest scrapbooker out there but I'm proud of what I did so I'm going to post some pics for you to see. I appreciate any and all comments!!



Here's on of the layouts. All of these are part of my wedding album that I just recently started...two years after the wedding lol







Here's another one.... this is just a few pics of me and my Maid of Honor, Andrea getting ready for the wedding




This is just half of one. I am still working on the groom side of it




And another one...




This is one of the pics of Crissy hurting me by tying me into my dress lol


Here's one of some of the bridal party... only half again...still working on the other side








Here is the first one I did... It's a layout I may use in a layout challenge from Scraptopia. I got the template from the scraptopia weekly challenge layout. I think it turned out pretty well.




Intro

Well this is my first post so I guess I'll start out by introducing myself. My name is Trisha. I'm happily married to a wonderful man. We just recently celebrated our two year anniversary. We don't have any children yet. I'd love to say we're trying but we're not. We've decided to finish school first. I've got mommy fever extremely bad but I know it's best for the baby if we wait. I got my bachelor of science degree in psychology in December of 2009. David, my husband, got his bachelor of science in medical physics in May 2010. I'm working towards my master of science degree in psychological services. I plan to get my LPC. David is going to go to graduate school to get his master of science in radiological sciences. He starts in August. We both work hard and hope to make the best out of our future.

So why did I decide to start a blog? Well, I love new projects and thought this would be fun. I'll be posting crafts (usually scrapbook layouts) and other things that I do. I may post some poetry or short stories or just general life experiences. I'm currently trying to lose weight so some of my posts may be about my battle with that. I hope people read occasionally but if not that's okay too. Thanks for reading and I hope you have a great day!
