21

Last night I celebrated my 21st birthday. A much more laid back affair than the elaborate one I'd imagined. And of course I wasn't in my beloved Las Vegas.

But it's all good. I went out and ordered a cocktail with cotton candy in it. I popped champagne and toasted to being 21. To the next chapter in my life. To my new adventure.

And I am DETERMINED to make this the BEST YEAR EVER. I really feel like the timing is perfect right now. All the twists and turns and bumps along the way have led me to now.

I have soooo many things I want to do this next year. And the sky is the limit. ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE. I am 21 years old. And I am going to make it FABULOUS. :)

Last Night

Last night I went to go see The Nutcracker. I was hesitant to go, because of all the emotions wrapped up into it. I thought it would just make me feel worse. But, I decided to anyway, and I'm glad I did.

When I got there all the girls were excited to see me. Most of them I hadn't seen in a really long time. The directors were happy to see me to. One of the professional dancers I've known forever didn't even recognize me. He was all "you're all grown up I'm just the same old guy in tights." haha.  And I got to talk with one of my favorite teachers and tell her what I was doing and she said she was proud of me. So that was good. Overall it was really great seeing everybody and reconnecting. I felt myself coming back to life last night.

It was actually like I WAS just home for the holidays. And that's how I've decided to look at it. I'm  home for the holidays and going back to Vegas in January. I'll be starting a whole new adventure. But it was good to have this night of reminiscing and reconnecting. New cherished memories. <3

A Little Less Conversation...

A LOT more action! I started taking action last night. I applied to two jobs in Vegas. And I applied to another one today. It's the first step. It's a small step but it could lead to a great opportunity. I am feeling positive and feeling accomplished! Like Elvis says "I'm tired of talkin'". It's time to make this happen!

 

 

 

I Dont Want To Leave :(

Once again I am heartbroken leaving Las Vegas. Everytime I come out here I realize more and more how much I miss it. And this trip was hard. Because it was very clear just how long it had been since I lived here. And I felt like I had lost some of the spark I had when I was here. But I want it back. I want it all back.

Elvis

 

 

This is something I often think about. I try not to bring it up most of the time because most people do not understand it, or think I'm just plain crazy. But...

I truly believe there is a reason why Elvis Presley is a part of my life. I believe it was destiny for me to fall in love with him. He has already changed my life in so many ways and made me the person I am today. He's influenced every aspect of my life. Every decision I've made. He's inspired every single dream I have for myself, and the overall vision I have for my life.

I don't think it's random, I don't think it's by chance. I truly believe it was meant to be. I think Elvis is a big part of my journey and will ultimately lead me to my fate.

Just something that's been on my mind recently. My love for Elvis goes so much deeper than most people know. It is more than an admiration, it is a relationship. Again as crazy as that sounds it is truly how I feel. And I know Elvis will always be a part of my life. Guiding me and pushing me to keep going. He's always been there and I know he always will be.
