It’s a funny thing this thing we call change.

I am a young person and at this time in my life it is understandable to be a bit unstable and a bit unsure of what is going on around me. Though due to the environment in which I work good-byes are inevitable and change will be just around the corner.

I have only worked here 14 months. Which is longer then I thought it would be, but I realized today that I am having problems adjusting to the changes going on around me because I think I have this desire to have my life be a bit more stable.

Though on the other hand I want to watch and see how this all works out.

It’s a funny thing, this thing we call change.

We need it but it is not that often that we embrace it.

Power in ...

Lately as I try to really start to move away from feeling like I live in Temporary world. Because even though my state might be temporary, I know that I really need to start thinking long term.

I am starting to really look how where I want my life to go. What I want my life to be filled with no mater where I am. Instead of defining my life by where I am, defining me life by who I am and remembering that the place is only the setting.

One thing I am trying to do is try to bring Creativity back into my life.

Through Music, Words and Laughter.

In this world there is power in so many things.

These three are helping me find my internal power.

By reading more, I forgot how much joy I found in a good book.
Music, really listening to the message, and finding music that really means something to me.
Laughter, the more I laugh I find the more I live! It is who I am!

Current Book: The Kite Runner
Current Music: a mixture of old favorites and new loves
Laughter: Everyday with many specific moments

Omigod its July. The Middle of July

I at times can not get over how fast my life seems to be passing me by. You think its May! I have over a Month till July comes. But then some how time passes and you can even be sure what you did. You just know it has happened and it is now July.
June for me what a month of challenge. I had the final month/new beginning of a completely stressful project at work. Which is done now can I get a woot woot. I also saw the end of an improve class I had been taken come to end with a final show which I think went off great but was a first for me and eye opening!
These were defiantly the two big things which happened to me in my life but the month also was filled with other little things.
But now in 4 days I will be going back to Canada for a very short time. Which is a bit great but also a bit booo so be only able to go back and visit for very short spaces of time. It funny because I miss parts of home everyday but I defiantly know that I am where I am suppose to be right now!

What Keeps me Moving!

Music/Music/Music

Alright - Red Carpet

It's gonna be alright tonight, oh my
It's gonna be alright, oh yeah, come baby
The sun is gonna keep on shining
On brighter days, on the horizon
My love for you will always keep on rising

Everything is gonna be alright tonight, oh yeah,
My love for you is gonna keep on rising (for you)


[chorus]
The sun is gonna keep on shining
Brighter days on the horizon
My love for you will keep on rising
Everything's gonna be alright


The sun is gonna keep on shining
My love for you will keep on rising
Everything's gonna be alright [3x]


chorus [2x]


It's gonna be alright, tonight
It's gonna be alright, alright
It's gonna be alright, tonight

“Sometimes it is hard to live your dream.”

I heard these words from a good friend of mine the other day. Thank you for speaking them because indeed sometimes it is hard to live your dream. Sometimes is hard to live your dream when part of that dream is figuring out what exactly your dream is.

What is it that you want your life to be?

Throughout living your dream, hard choices have to be made. Things have to be missed. Though a question has to be asked, when finding your dream who must one living for. Everyone would say yourself? But is that always the right choice?

Update!!!!!!

I realized now it has been a very long time since I write a proper Update:

Ireland
France
Belgium
Seen lots of Flowers!
Queens Day

Is what I would have to talk about!

I’ve been kind of busy but it has been really good.

Ireland – For St. Patrick’s Day! Woot Woot a must do and highly recommended!

France – Random Easter Long Weekend Trip to Northern France!

Belgium – This past weekend hoped on a train and without any planning went to another country! Pictures still on my Camera.

Seen Lots of Flowers! - Well I do live in a country of Flowers so I went to see a garden in Holland called Kreukonhof (though I am sure I spelt that wrong).

Queens Day - I like to think of it as an entire day dedicated to the Color Orange. The Whole City becomes a Dance Floor with DJ’s at every turn and you can sell anything you want on the street.

So... Next Steps?

Today I got up and I went to work just like every other day. But today I also learnt that the indeed ABN AMRO as I work for it may not exist, I am pretty sure, in the near future.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/6582507.stm
Which means jobs will be cut so what are the chances for me. Far less. So I will work as hard as I can while I finish here but I do not even now have an idea of what I might want my next steps to be.

Could it be London? How about New York? Should we try to stay in Amsterdam? What about back to Edmonton? Move south to Calgary? There is T.O.? Or maybe Vancouver? Seattle (this is where Starbucks started)?

A world of possibilities and no idea where to go!

Song in my head right now!

Heartbreak Town – Dixie Chicks

“Hugged your friends
Kissed your mama goodbye”

“Square people in a world thats round
And they watch you dancin
Without the sound”
