College

So I will have been at my college for a week tomorrow. A friend of mine told me that I should start writing on here to help with my anxiety. Let me explain:

Since Thurs Aug 16 2012 I have been having excruciating pain in my abdomen and the feeling of nausea. On Monday I actually threw up in the morning. I went to the nurses office and all they could prescribe me is over the counter meds that weren't even related to my problems. I also went and talked to a counselor. Needless to say i went to the hospital that day and when they couldn't find anything wrong with me I was put on an anti-anxiety pills.

Now these pills aren't helping me much. The only time i have been able to get relief is in the middle of the day. So I am going to try writing about my worries and anything else that is bothering me along with how my college life is going every day

new begining

I know I have not been posting on here much. I am sorry for this. I have been busy getting items for going off to college in less than two weeks. I will hopefully be able to post pictures of my campus and many fun events over my college life. I also plan on posting more in general just to keep you few faithful followers involved in my life and be able to get support when need be. I am grateful for you all in sticking with my few posts.

Summer is here

So I have been out of school for almost two weeks. I passed all my classes except for my college math that I will have to retake at saint Leo either in the spring 2013 or fall 2013.

But enough of that. For now I have been slowly obtaining items for going and living on campus and will be over the next few months I will be sorting out boxes from my closet to make room because I don't have a very big closet to begin with.  So for now I leave you with  a quote:

I would rather live in a world where my life is surrounded by mystery than live in a world so small that my mind could comprehend it  by Harry Emerson Fosdick

Life

So I want to give you guys a quick update to tell you one sorry for not posting much recently and two this will continue probably to the end of April beginning of may because my class work is piling up and getting hectic for me to think of posting anything. So stay with me and you will get more over the summer I promise.

Update

So I am sitting in my humanities class and decided to give you all a quick update.

So I am officially going to Saint Leo University in the fall and have been working hard to scholarships to be able to pay for college. Indygo has also been accepted to her college of choice.

I am happy that next week I will have spring break and can relax slightly(except for having to do a ton of math to catch up on)

Recycling

There are many ways to recycle in this world.

A few ways I recycle is by:

• collecting all the plastic water bottles that my family uses to take to the recycle bins at our local food store
• all the excess food that is not edible to human beings gets thrown in the compost heap we have out back
• I have actually recently bought a reusable water bottle to cut down on the use of plastic bottles and a filter system.

College

So Today I have received my acceptance letter to Saint Leo University. I will be going there in August and hopefully be able to pay for it. It will cost around 28,000 dollars give or take a few hundred.

I am going to get my pre-vet and then to get my veterinarians degree

So I hope you all had a great new year so far. It is now time for my monthly update of things to happen.

• I have started Spring Term on the 9th and so far I like every class, even the public speaking class I have once a week.
• I am to get the rest of my fillings done on Monday
  
• I have started applying for other colleges in this state.
• I have started exercising again and have lost 4 lbs in a week

That is all I can thunk of for now. Off I go to turn in an essay.

Getting Organized!!!

So I have recently heard about this Get more organized challenge and thought it would be great for me to join. The Mortician’s Wife started this challenge to get your house organized and in order (especially after the holidays). She is going to give us tips and advice to help us along. So Here We go!

DAY 1: Hopping on Board!

Why Should I do this?

I Have for the most part kept my room organized but always seem to obtain piles everywhere. Even if i decide to organize I end up with it stuffed in the same place or somewhere else just differently placed. So I am done with that and ready to have a proper place for everything.


I will leave you with some of my problem areas.

Part of my desk.
The other side is slightly better



This is under my TV where my Fiancee and my alter is.
The alters fine even if we need to change the alter cloth to winter
But all the other shelves and the stuff to the left is messy

Almost the end of 2011

I am sitting here now and wondering where the year has gone. I have accomplished half a year of college with passing grades, applied to go to Saint Leo in the fall where I will be leaving Indygo for the time I'm in school(besides holidays and weekend meetings if we can). I plan on getting a laptop for work in classes and for easy posting access when I have the whim.

I definitely mean to post more about what is going on in my life and other thoughts that pop into my mind.

But for now I will say Have a Great New Year!!

Equality

I just want to share with all of you this sweet video. You don't have to agree with Equality of marriage between two men or two women to enjoy this. And maybe it will open your eyes to the love that can be shared between them and that we need to have the same rights.

So enjoy this and have a Very Merry Christmas

Missing Comments

A Message From Indygo: 

Willow brought it to my attention that she accidentally deleted two comments as she isn't use to blogger. If the poster of those comments would be so sweet as to repost them that would be great!

Thanks!

Christmas

The smell of pine in the house,decorating the Christmas tree and a wonderful light display for outside. Spending Christmas Eve with family and friends and waking up real early on Christmas day to end up talking with siblings while waiting for parents to get up.

All of these are memories I have of this wonderful season. This is what I look forward to every year. Christmas is a time for family to get together and enjoy the company that it brings.

Even if you don't have a Christmas tree or any presents for Christmas day. Enjoy the season for what it should be.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Snakes in the House

So I am at my sisters house right now with one of my brother-in-laws snakes(Ball python) around my neck. I've always wondered how you could tell the difference between male and females. Well now I know.

The male snake at the tail goes from thick to thin without the gradual affect while the female is a nice smooth thinning.

Now there is much controversy to snakes. My mother has owned two ball pythons and my brother-in-law has 3 pythons and a rat snake in the house. There has never been any incidents with them harming anyone(even if the rat snake is aggressive by nature.)

The ball pythons if not careful, and they get around your neck, will constrict slightly. But it is in their nature and not their fault especially if they are seeking warmth. There is no need to hide your children from them. Let alone it is a great experience for the children to see and learn from watching how a snake lives and sometimes even eats its food.

All in all ball pythons are gently and elegant creatures

So December is upon us and the Christmas season is closing in along with cool weather. That means lots of decoration for me and my fiancee for all the children of our neighborhood and anyone else to see. Here's what else I've been up to:

• This Past Tuesday I went to my Fathers Boyscout troops Christmas party. It was a fun evening even though my father stole a running water candle holder that I really liked from me at the Santa exchange but I'm sure I'll get it for Christmas.
• The First Term of College is over with and I passed with Two B's and Two C's. Now I'll have a whole month before I go back for the spring term.

I know not much for this month and I'm sorry I don't post much. But that I believe will be my New Years Resolution. To start posting more and not forgetting about it.

Well I hope you all have a Happy Holiday and New Year.

So I have gotten this idea from My fiancee. This will be when I give you updates on my life and other important events maybe once a month or more depending on what's happened. So here we go!

• My family and I have started our diets again after gaining back the weight we had lost last year. I know I had a good reason what with my familiar dying but it wasn't an excuse to go this long without working on losing weight.
• School is almost over. Just a few more weeks and the first half is over and I can pick new classes for January's term. I don't know yet what I'll Take.
• The beginning of this month I went to Tennessee to celebrate my Niece's 16th birthday. That was really fun and nice to get away and enjoy the fall weather(being there's none in Florida)
• I got to hang out with my friend that I haven't seen in forever and he has offered to pay for Indygo and my's wedding. I don't know yet what to say about that. Its just so shocking to me right now.

I think that is all for now. Please stay and enjoy the calmness of the stream as long as you wish.

Its official

So last night was ordered my Engagement/Promise ring and our wedding planners are almost here (today or tomorrow).

If you don't know already, My partner Indygo and I are engaged to be married.(happy dance) The actual wedding isn't going to be for a while what with money, college and of course everything else going wrong in life right now. But it's going to be fun planning it for then. My thoughts are a Celtic fall wedding. The dress style for the bridesmaids and maid of honor have already been decided. Now all we need is to actually agree on everything else. (Lol)

life.

So I'm sitting in my college E building hallway waiting for my future spouse to get out of her class. Already this week isn't turning out great. I still have decorations to get down from the loft in my shed and not much time to put the decorations up. (I'm procrastinating) My brother won't even help, he is so being so lazy.

But all in all my biology exam that was to be due tomorrow isn't going to be due then. So that is a plus. On another note I am looking into going to St. Pete college in Florida for their Vet tech program. All I need to do is figure out where to get my 40 hr volunteering done at a vet hospital around here. Let alone all the classes I have to take before I can even enroll in the College.

Well more to be posted later.

Halloween

Well it is October and I am excited for dressing up. This year I am to be a Pirate. To the left are the new boots that I bought to go with my costume. I also have a cutlass, pistol and a treasure chest. The treasure chest is going to be painted to look old with rope handles and a latch to keep it closed (if I can ever find one). Inside I have plastic gems, pearls, and gold coins.

I haven't yet gotten to decorating the house this year. Usually it takes part of September and all of October to get all the decorating done. But this year I think I'm going to keep it simple. (What with college and all)

The Begining

So I have had a blog on this site before with a few friends of mine a while ago. I had blogged almost every day on there and I realized, since the dis-banning of that blog , that I miss posting things on this site and that it gives me a chance to express myself even if its only read by me. So here I go and welcome to Willow's Stream.

So Let me tell you a little about myself:

• I am a 19 year old female who has a female partner
• I am a lazy Wiccan ( meaning that I don't do much practicing of the art and such but do celebrate and acknowledge the goddess and the holiday seasons)
• This blog will mostly be my ramblings and what has happened in my life
  

So, more to be posted later.
