random thoughts while single

Have you ever been forced into the friend zone when you wanted something more? What did you do? Did you distance yourself to get over him/her or did you remain friends because you hoped one day he/she would feel the same way about you? And then years after, you still feel the same way.

Is there anyone you have dated you regret breaking up with? But only realized years after that you regret not giving it one more try.

I've always wondered how long distance relationships last? There's so many people in between the distance. It's not that I don't trust myself. It's all those other people around me I don't necessarily trust.

Divorce is very common. Cheating is even more common. This is so sad.

I have an extremely short attention span - crushing on guys (almost) on a daily basis. Yet, I can still have feelings for years for a particular guy that was never mine.

I think I have gotten pickier with age. This sucks because if I couldn't find a man 5 years ago, what makes me think I'll find him anytime soon when I'm more picky than was 5 years ago?

Seriously, why does it feel like cheaters outweigh those who are genuinely committed?

Do you believe in love at first sight? I didn't, until I saw the man of my dreams in Loblaws last week. LOL!

Ziptrekking in Whistler

Ziptrekking was a trip and an amazing experience! What made this experience even better was that we completed this adventure in the beautiful breathtaking Whistler.

I had great company, crisper16 and Jason plus the weather forecast was wrong so the sun was on our side and the temperature was perfect.

Had some fun in the village before we headed through the mountains.

Got a little nervous before we headed up to the mountains.

The ziptrekking tour consisted of five ziplines. One zipline was over 3000 feet and we zipped at heights of up to 200 feet!

Here's a video of me on the last zipline that took us back to the village. Enjoy!

The next time you happen to be in Vancouver, I highly recommend driving up to Whistler and going ziptrekking. Do the harder tour, the eagle eye. It's a great way to get your heart racing while being visually stimulated.

heartbreaking dreams

In the past month, I've had a couple of unexpected guys on my mind. (NO NEITHER ONE OF THEM IS MrGuy.) And for the past week, I've been having my heartbroken by them in my dreams. The dreams seem so real. Sometimes, I even wake up crying.

I hope crisper16 can't hear my whimpering from across the hall. I talk and make noises often in my sleep.

The one guy that SHOULD BE on my mind (NO NOT MrGuy) hasn't made an appearance in my dreams lately and isn't on my mind as much as he should be.

Non-love can be so complicated.

NorCal ROCKS!

Sadly, I am back!

Here are the highlights of my Cali trip:

• shooting guns!

• MotoGP

• surprise birthday party for me (and Jason)

• the Pacific Coast

• motocycle passenger joyriding

• the food
  

• the drinking

• and more drinking

• old friends and new friends

• the cute babies

• and leaving my heart in San Francisco

**** I LOVE NORCAL!!!! ****

countdown

ONLY 4 MORE DAYS TIL CALI!
And ONLY 28 MORE DAYS TIL VEGAS!

GET ME OUTTA HERE already!!!!

mission accomplished!

I've been on a mission - TO NOT BE HERE for my birthday.

As I get older, birthdays aren't the same anymore. For the past few years, I haven't been in the mood to celebrate. Each birthday I tend to assess my life. I don't do this on purpose, it's just a natural thing to do since it's the day I grow older.

And turning (OMG!) 33 this year is pretty sad. I have no full-time job, no husband and therefore no children (I'm so far from having a bf), no home owner status and I'm just plain old. Here I am turning 33 and basically at the same position I was when I graduated high school - I graduated 15 years ago! Bottom line is it's 15 years later and I've had no progression in life.

So to balance my pathetic life with some happiness, I didn't want to be here for July. This way when the 10th hits, I can say "Boo, I have no job, no bf/hubby, no house but hey, at least I'm traveling and exploring the riches of a different city."

My MISSION is ACCOMPLISHED! I'll be in Cali from July 2nd to 12th and Vegas July 26th to August 2nd. So now when I remember the things I don't have in life, I simply remember my travel plans and I can't help but smile.
