What I Have Been Up To...

After a much needed break from blogging, I am now back!
In the last month, a lots of things have happened in my life.

Here some random things that have happened since my last post:

  • At the end of July, I went to Montréal for a fun weekend (with B, B's sister and her boyfriend)! The anniversary party for B's aunt et uncle turned great! We truly had a blast!!! And we (the four of us) had a fun car ride together! 
  • I went to a Bachelorette Party for a girl I barely know (she is not a close friend). I had too much expectations and the night was really BORING!  Big FAIL!
  • I went to a wedding on August 20th. Perfect weather for a wedding. Despite the no-fun at the bachelorette party, the wedding actually turned out to be really fun! We danced the night away! (Love that expression!!!) I didn't catch the bouquet... but I got one white rose that felt on the ground during the toss haha! 
  • I have done 530 km on my bike (inside and outside) in one month!!! I'm really proud of myself regarding working out!!!  
  • I have lost 8 pounds (in about one month). Big success!!! I fit into my target purple dress for our friends' wedding! I got some many compliments!!!

  • I got the news that I'm going to be an aunt! My older brother G and A, his girlfriend of 7 years, are going to have a baby in late March 2012! This is so exciting! 
  • I did a lots of car rides with B to some random places! We just love to do that on the weekends!
  • B and I celebrated our dating anniversary on August 23rd! We have been dating for 9 years!!! Almost a decade! (You can read about our story right HERE.) For the occasion, I baked yummy cupcakes! (Funfetti cupcakes!) We ate those in only two days!

  • I had a lot of serious discussions with B regarding our actual (and future) situation and I think that we see things more eye-to-eye... 
  • I truly understood that misunderstandings can lead to a lot of tears.
  • I drank a lots of chocolate milkshakes from McDonald's to help me getting back my happiness!
  • I went to my parents' house several times for great dinners filled with fun and laughs!
  • I cried a lot and had really difficult times. I am still struggling. But I think I feel better. 
  • I did some writing for my thesis but I am not done yet!
  • I have been to a friend's house for a housewarming party that turned out so much fun! 
  • I cleaned our garage, that was really needed! I love cleaning!!!
  • I baked a lot of desserts (muffins, cookies, cupcakes, etc.)! So yummy!
  • I spent a lot of time in our jacuzzi to relax!
  • A close friend of mine got engaged. I am happy for her but I feel so jealous. Mixed feelings. Because she has been with her boyfriend for only 11 months. And B and I have been together since 2002. That's 9 years!!! B and I had discussions about that topic and I now know that he wants to get married with me some day but right now it's just not the time. I understand that, I know that. But I'm still jealous, I am bad, I know. I don't want to be that kind of girl but it looks like I am becoming that girl. I don't like it. 
  • I applied for a teaching job (French - Grades 10 and 11), got an interview the same day(!!!) and the next day, I learnt that another girl got the job (a girl that knows well the school's principal in fact and she is less qualified that I am! Ggggrrr!). I was very angry because I really thought I was going to get that teaching job! (As a matter of fact, I was pretty confident!!!) The school's principal seemed to really like me (he told me that my resume was fantastic and very very well written! And that my work experience was really good! And he liked the fact that I was a girl from in town!). He also told me that the job was a permanent job and if I wanted that job, it was mine! And he even gave me a grand tour of the school and he gave me the student and the teachers guidelines and the school calendar! WTF?!?!?! He really did everything to make me think that I was going to get that job! I was soooo disappointed! And I'm still pretty angry after almost 2 weeks! :(

So, this is all for today! I'm looking forward to return to blogging!!!

What's new in your life? Anything I missed?

Have a great day everyone!!!

I Don't Like that Word: Struggling

Life is not always beauty pink powder... 
I have been struggling a lot lately. With a lot of different things. 
Life. Love. Relationship. School. Work. Friends. Future.
I burst into tears yesterday night. Biggest meltdown ever. 

I need to take an indefinite break from blogging. I have no desire to write right now, I just don't know what to write about.

I won't be writing but probably still reading most of your blogs, maybe not commenting as much as I usually do.

I will be back in a few weeks!!!

See you soon!
