Movie junkie!

Okay so I've been thinking about what I should make this blog about. One thing that came to mind is movies. I love movies, I almost watch one a day. Last nights movie was: The Sapphires. Was inspired by a true story about four extraordinary Aboriginal women, that toured Vietnam singing to the troops, during the Vietnam war. Their manager played by Chris O'Dowd, was very good. The actresses playing the girls we equally good. The music is mostly Motown, which is one of my favorite genre's of music. I've been listening to Claude Debussy radio on Pandora, great instrumental music. I just switched stations to Film Scores, because the volume on Claude Debussy radio was so up and down, and when you turned it up a commercial would inevitably be super loud. Tonight is candlelight yoga at Yoga House, I'm excited, I get to use my new yoga mat bag my Mom made for me. I invited my new friend Eva and my friend Aly. My Mom made Aly a yoga bag too, I can't wait to give it to her! This Wednesday we have our once a month meet up Real-Life Pinterest group. We are making mini round cork boards covered in fabric. I have to go buy the supplies this weekend. I also just received one of the two planters I ordered. I'm going to make a small fireplace out of them, hopefully it will work. I found the idea on Pinterest although I think the planter the girl had was bigger than what I ended up with. Well I need to get back to work. Have an awesome day!

Quick Post

Quick update of last nights endeavors. As I have been informed by the powers that be, "no internet play, find something work related to do." Mind you I was told this on my lunch break. I'm only payed for 8 hours of work, not 9. I mean come on.....I carry on. This will be out of order and sporadic. So watched the movie, Trance, last night with James McAvoy, Rosario Dawson, and Vincent Cassel. It is a psychological thriller. You get lost in what is reality and what is actually the characters in a trance state. I enjoyed the movie thoroughly and it kept me guessing what was going on. The ending was great and unexpected. Also last night I went to Earth Fare, for their $9.99 Pot Roast dinner, comes with a huge piece of pot roast, roasted potatoes and gravy, with rosemary garlic roasted carrots. So delicious, I had the rest of the pot roast to day for lunch. I went to the wig shop at the mall last night with my friend Aly to try on wigs. I'm debating cutting my hair short, pixie style on Saturday. I am very scared. :( But I feel like I need a change. Aly said I could always just get a wig, something not so permanent, but we did find a wig that looked really good on me. My brother said, I hope you don't look like a boy! Thank you for the encouraging words Bro! I couldn't say anything to him because he just gave me his old smart phone. So this afternoon after work I'm going to Verizon to get it activated with my phone number. Pretty excited about that! I got a surprise at work today, My AWESOME Mom sent me a present, she made me a yoga bag for my yoga mat, and a cute little bag to put my water and keys in! She is amazing, and it has one of my favorite animals on it, Owls! :) I'm so excited I can't wait to use it on Thursday! One more thing before I go. My rediscovery of The Gabe Dixon Band/Gabe Dixon. I had pandora on at work and one of there songs came on, I was like I totally know this sound, what band is this, to my surprise it was The Gabe Dixon Band. So I immediately switched to spotify and made a play list! Which we are currently listening to. If you've never heard them check them out on spotify, my first cd from them was Live At World Cafe, which is only 6 songs but it totally hooked me! Hope everyone is having a good day...still not sure what this blog will be about except being 30 and trying to get through life. Getting through life, what a concept, especially coming from me, with my depression and anxiety. But I always try to remember as much as possible to find the silver lining, there's really no point in being a downer. So live, dream, take life by the bull horns and hold on! :)

Start....

I guess I should start by saying I like researching and if any of the information I mention below is incorrect please correct me. Please give an applicable, logical rebuttal. Most of what you read will be pure thought, my mind sometimes doesn't know where it's going. Some people call this scatter brained, I just call it, spontaneous thought. After some quick research online...blogger, is a free blog site but you don't own your blog. Keep that in mind when starting a blog. If you don't own your blog you can't take your followers with you if you move to a different site. So like the name of my blog states, my part time life 30. I turned 30 this year. People say you figure out what you want in your 30s, they can be the best years of your life. So far I am super skeptical, at least from a dating stand point. I've had 3 encounters with men since by birthday, the first I dated for about 2 months(started a month before my birthday), he wasn't interested in me enough to be my boyfriend. The second just wanted one thing, needless to say he is not helping the nice guy image that the male population wants to give off. And the third I met this past Saturday, really nice, handsome, smart, and after dealing with the two before I was so excited someone like him could like me, this totally blinded me. A few hours into meeting him, my friend Eva mentions, "I think he has a ring on, as in I think he's married." And this brings me to my first lesson as a 30 year old. #1 Rule: When meeting a man, Check for a wedding ring. I've heard this before, which made me feel more like a fool. But the guy was all over me like white on rice. I was just so excited to actually be attracted to someone, which doesn't happen to often, the 2 previous guys, asked me out, but I wasn't that attracted to them. So apparently I am attracted to the unavailable. So what did I do when I found out he was married, and men are the scum of the world, sometimes. I ran to the one guy I met earlier, that let me know he has a girlfriend, I said "I'm not hitting on you, but I'm going to hang out with you because, the guy that was all over me, I just found out he is married, and I just need to put my mind at ease that there are still good guys out there, meaning you. Thank you!" He was great he even seem more comfortable around me after that. My friend Tya told me I don't know when a guy is hitting on me. And she said I have no clue as to when I am flirting. I just try to be nice to people, male or female. When I'm attracted to someone, I can sometimes tell if they are attracted to me, well I can at least tell we seem to be getting on well. Anyway, my past 3 encounters with guys since I've been 30 haven't been that great. But I guess the #1 rule of check for a wedding ring, should be ingrained in my mind, at least I hope so! :) Besides being interested in finding a handsome, smart, nice guy to date, and possibly become my boyfriend. I love movies. I've been to the theater twice in the past 2 weeks. I've seen: We Are the Millers--I'd give it four out of five stars. I hadn't seen a preview for it so I was pleasantly surprised that I had picked a good one. Very funny, with an excellent ending. :) Despicable Me 2--For a children's movie I'd give it four out of 5 stars. I own the first movie and did not expect the second movie to be as enjoyable. Boy was I wrong, my favorite characters where back, with some new additions. I've even decided to try and convince my friends to dress up like Minions for Halloween this year, it might be our last group Halloween before some of them start trying to have babies. Gezz listen to me, my friends having babies and I can't even find a guy worth dating. Priorities are definitely scattered. I'm also still on my 6th month waiting room to the rest of my life. Let me explain, I got a new job in May, they put me on a trial period till the end of October, 6 months. Then they decide if they are going to keep me and hopefully either going to give me a raise or health insurance. Hopefully both, fingers crossed! :) An music, My new favorite song: "Brave" by Sara Bareilles Sara Bareilles is brilliant and has a beautiful voice! She is good person to follow for any aspiring vocalists. Well I think that's all I have for now....until next time.
