Enough is Enough

I had a long relationship that ended about a year ago. We were together for about 5 years, engaged for 3.5 years. Obviously it was something good or it wouldn’t have lasted for so long. A while back I found out, through a myspace comment, that he completely lied to me, and he cheated. My natural reaction was to text him just to say that – now I know.

He asks me what difference it makes now? Well, to me it makes a huge difference and it does matter! This is why: Our relationship, our engagement, according to him ended because he couldn't take the distance (about a 20min plane ride). Boohoo, I'm so sorry, that must have been really hard for you........ NO, You cheated, but you were too scared to tell me the truth, THAT'S WHY it ended dipshit, and that’s why it matters!


I guess it's easier and it looks better to you, your family and my family to say that it just didn’t work than to admit that you are a cheater huh?

Apparently he also thought it was okay to start a new official relationship before breaking up our engagement because they are apparently celebrating their 1 year anniversary a week before the date we broke it off. How pure!

It’s funny too, that my good friend Linda emailed back and forth with this girl, about a year ago when things were going down. As they were talking back and forth, the new girl said, and I quote "As for me and his ex I came into the picture way after her."

Notice the word "way" indicating a long time after! Either bitch it lying or, again, Maui is, to her! When you are engaged (to be married, remember that!), any decent person would end that relationship before starting another one am I right? Instead, Maui wanted to overlap. CLASSY!

He never tried hard enough to fix it in the first place, before it ended, and even to this day, his attempts to get me back have been absolutely pathetic!One the one hand, he calls me asking casually like it’s no big deal sort of like “hey, you wanna get back together or what?” and on the other hand he’s calling me crying, telling me I'm the best thing he'll ever have. oh I know! Don't you worry, I know. Go cry to someone else, because I really don’t care.
As for recent events, he called me last night, multiple times, at around 3 in the morning. Silly of me to pick up the phone because his words mean absolutely nothing to me. “I miss you… I Love you…. I want to get you back” After I decided that I heard enough he still thought it was appropriate to continue harassing me.....
Seriously?
It is over! Please don't call me! There is nothing that we need to talk about!

And oh, clearly this all happened/happens while he was/is with this new girl.
He wants to have his cake and eat it too, and it absolutely disgusts me!

The point of it all: You think you know someone, but you really have no idea! People's true colors will come out... I just wish I would have known sooner.

Maui Kava, in my eyes you’re just a big scam. You are a liar, so full of shit and not worth anymore of my time! I hope you feel good about yourself!

So yeah.. What's new?

Since last time I updated you guys on my
weightloss two weeks ago, I lost 2.2 lbs = 1kg!
Now at a total weight loss of 13 lbs in 2009!


I've been staying really busy with school... Only two weeks left of the semester now and it's really stressful with lots of exams, papers, projects, presentations and such. Working out has kinda taken a backseat lately and I've given in to my Taco Bell cravings a few times, but it's all good! Still losing... :)

I've also been trying to figure out my summer. I'm searching for a new place to live, since I have to move out in the end of May. I'm not gonna get an apartment for myself because it's just going to be too expensive so I'm looking for a room/roommate. and it's harder than you think! There are really some crazy people out there renting out rooms...
These are my simple criteria for a room: Location: Waikiki/Downtown/Makiki/Ala Moana/other parts of Honolulu. Price: max. $500-600. No drama. No insanity. Extras I wouldn't mind: Pool

Holla at me if you know anything!

Now: Back to studying

Turbo Kick Wednesday!

I had school and work all day long today but I knew that as soon as 5pm hit and I was leaving the office, my day was gonna get much better!

TURBO KICK BOX TIME!
Wednesdays 6:00pm at 24h fitness Kapiolani with the most awesome instructor in the world, Blasi!
Find a class near you, do it! :)

I admit it, I sound crazy, but you guys don't even understand. I am completely obsessed! But see when I'm in this class, I am just one out of many, many TKB-crazy people. I see the same people coming there time after time. I want YOU to become addicted to it too! It is an addiction, but a good one!

I think I can honestly say that Turbo Kick Box has changed my life, heck at times I even feel like it IS my life! It gives me a high no chemical ever could, it makes me happy, it makes me feel strong, and more importantly it is a fun way of losing weight!

So, until my next blog, try this: Jab, cross, hook, up, twist it, back-kick and knee strike! ;)

Halfway to Success!

I forgot that I was gonna post my latest weigh-in results!
I lost 1.2 lbs this week, for a total weight loss of 10.8lbs in 2009!
So, looking at my updated "ticker", I am more than half way to my goal!
Isn't that super?!

I'll try my hardest to lose the rest during my "Summer Slim-Down" which is going to start as soon as school is done with May 8th or something like that!
I'm gonna do this successfully by continuing to go to the gym as often as I can and not eat junk. Simple! :)
It might just work since I'm obsessed with my Turbo Kick Box classes and have a weird appreciation of boring foods like tuna, straight out of the can :)

Anyways, have a good one! and buy me this t-shirt from http://www.turbokick.com/

Got my hair did!

I went to Paul Brown Institute to get my hair did today.
For the outcome I wanted they suggested for me to get partial highlights,
all i wanted was for it to look natural, even and sexy :)
They were almost scared of my hair,
like they never seen Scandinavian hair before,
and they even made me sign a release form, haha.
Seriously scary
Although I looked like an alien in the process, it turned out looking fabolous! :)
Just trying to stay in "Disney Look"

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter/Glad Påsk everyone!

I wish I could be back home in Östersund, Sweden right now, coloring eggs with my family or something! Actually, I just spoke to my mom and she told me that mom, dad and lil'bro Mårten are going to the summer/winter house to stay overnight to celebrate easter a little. Man, I used to hate that place when I was a teenager, but now I really want to be there with them to enjoy some fresh cold air in the spring sunshine! Easter was amazing when I was younger. Me and my neighbour Karin always produced a shit ton of easter cards (kind of works as bribes; hers were always much more beautiful than mine), dressed up as "påskkärringar".... wait. Maybe I should find a good explanation for this, it might sound weird.... Here you go:


Many of the things you don't know about Easter have to do with odd, intensely national Holy Week traditions. So why not start off with the most unexpected one — the Easter Witch. In Sweden and parts of Finland, a mini-Halloween takes place on either the Thursday or Saturday before Easter. Little girls dress up in rags and old clothes, too-big skirts and shawls and go door to door with a copper kettle looking for treats. [this is where the cards come in, we give you a card, you give us candy!]http://www.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,1889922_1890008,00.html

Instead, I'm in Hawaii, which isn't too bad either :) I just received an email from Disney with the actual offer for my role in Concierge. I haven't accepted it yet, only because I know that as soon as I do they'll ask me for $100, so I'm just gonna hold off for about a week on that. I'm so excited that I'm actually going and I've been doing my research and following all the discussions on facebook to try to find out new things that are going on and possibly finding a roommate and I've already bumped in to some cool girls that like to have fun just like I do! I'm still waiting to hear if my friends MJ & Paco are gonna get accepted for the program too, that would just make it all come together perfectly!!

School is getting really stressful... I can't believe that I only have less than a month left! This semester has gone by so quickly. All my classes going really good, but my business law class is driving me insane. My professor thinks we are at Harvard, Yale or Princeton (just because that's where he went) and makes his test just like they would be at those top schools. Annoying. The busy time for finals/papers/projects has really started and I need to not lose my focus!

I'm also trying to get my summer all planned out now. I already signed up for one class at school but there's more things that need to fall into place. I need to find an apartment or a room by end of May/beginning of June(let me know if you know anything/anyone); I really need to find a second job so that I can make some more money!(have a couple of ideas that could work out); and more importantly, I need to lay up a Summer Slimdown 2009 plan! :D

Enough ramblings for tonight!

Shout out to Anna Bengtsson - HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIRL! Hope you got my voicemail :)

To all of you, I hope you are in good health, happy and doing well!
xoxo

Dreams Come True - Accepted for Disney!

I'm going back to Walt Disney World for another college program! I can't believe it! This program will be from August to January 2009.

I didn't find out the normal way, by getting the "purple folder" in the mail. No, today, I was sitting at the office doing some paperwork when my phone rings. "Number unavailable". This girl is on the other end, calling from Disney, 10x more excited than regular Disney people!

She wanted to let me know that they had just sent out an offer in the mail for me for a role in hospitality (my absolute number one choice!) but the reason why she called me was to let me know that they had looked over my application and wanted to offer me another role - concierge! The two roles have many similarities but basically, working in concierge is better, with more money and I'll be working with the more exclusive people, VIP's and such :)

So right away, my mind starts spinning out of control!

No. 1: This program starts in August (I really wanted to go in May!). I asked her if there was any way to change the program to start earlier but according to her, I was super lucky just to get this position and that it was impossible to change.
No. 2: With the program starting in August, that means I won't be able to see G in May like I had thought.. :/
No. 3: This definitely means I won't be graduating on time in December. I'll just have to push it til May 2010
No. 4: Damn it, my visa, my I-20 will expire - will my school be able to extend it?
No. 5: Guess I'm not running for vice president of TIMSO this year... Bummer
No. 6: Dude... I don't have anywhere to live during the summer!

Lots of things to deal with but I think everything will work out if I just set my mind to it!
This woman that I spoke to send me a job description for concierge. I like it. I'm sure I will have to deal with a lot of guests with extremely high demands and expectations, but I'm ready!

  • completing check in/check out process for concierge club-level guests by inputting and retrieving information from resort computer system;
  • proactively greeting guests, exhibiting the expected high level of Disney show quality, often times interacting with VIP's, celebrities, and executives;
  • creating individualized ticket packages; being comfortable in a strong sales environment;
  • making reservations and handling any special requests from guests;
  • handling cash and other forms of payment, including foreign currencies exchange;
  • maintaining cleanliness of common guest living/dining areas within concierge club-level;
  • assisting with luggage and other deliveries to guest rooms;
  • working concierge buffet line which can include maintaining overall cleanliness of buffet area and replenishing food, washing dishes, serving alcohol, maintaining inventory of liquor, and partnering with Culinary to ensure food quantity;
  • partnering with property VIP tour guides.


    Can't wait to wear my nametag again! :)
