Its been a while! So here's the download! My new job is going great! I love the work and the paycheck! I have been working on some projects like a cat/dog house for the animals and a 4x4 garden box that I will be using next year! I got about 40-50 dollars worth of lumber for these for about 10 because I was very patient and waited about 20 min for this really cute guy to help me. I am not going to school for a while. I want to focus on my job and doing well. I also need to save money and pay off some stuff before adding to them. That is my goal for the rest of the year. I want to save, pay-off, and give. I also started supporting a little girl through World Vision. Her name is Alice and she lives in Africa. She is only 2 so I can watch her grow and become a part of her society. I hope to someday meet her. I will post some pics later. I have also started raising money for World Wildlife Fund. I myself give to them and wanted to see if I could raise more money. The website is http://wwf.worldwildlife.org/goto/fortheworld and even if you don't donate please sign the guest book. I will be adding things about animals I learn there and will hopefully keep people interested. Other then that there really isn't anything new.

So I have a little side job that needs everyone's attention! I am now a writer for an online company called examiner.com! You can go here to see my profile! I need you all to look at and visit often!

Got my first check today! It was over $400! It will be more next time cuse I only worked 29 hours for that time and I will be working over 40 for the the next check! I am so excited to have a job that can support me and that I like! Anyway I was so excited I just want to tell someone! LOL

RuneScape should be the first stop for new mmorpg players!

RuneScape is a small online game that has been around for a long time. If you have never played the big MMORPG’s like World of Warcraft or Everquest then the place to go is RuneScape. The graphics have come leaps and bounds in the last couple of years but are still second or third rate. There are ample things to do without paying the $5.95 monthly subscription fee. It has quests, puzzles, level-up’s, and things to collect to keep you busy for at least 200 hours in free mode. You can make friends and join clan’s to help you on the harder quests. Many people, myself included, get lost in the game according to a poll taken on runescape.com. Overall this game is top notch for the newer gamers out there and is a great game for a younger audience. It is great for those on a budget and craving a little online action!

All info comes from my own play time and runescape.com.

Is the new FF 14 online game going to contend with the rest or flop like FF 11?

Although FF 11 is a great game and has countless players, it still could not distinguish itself among giants like WOW and EVE. The great story, good graphics, and sound were, as expected in any FF, the best part of the game. Once again in FF 14 the story is extremely developed, the graphics are top notch, and the music is epic. But will it gain a following? Unlike most mmorpg’s FF 14 has a unique and precise in-depth story that goes with the unlimited game play. A new feature is the, what I call, the non-adventure classes like cook and carpenter. These extra character’s are the base of the game like any society; But really, who wants to play a cook who finds, buys, or kills for food products and then spends the time to make and sell them? This could have a detrimental effect on the game or it could make it thrive. We will only know when thousands of players log on the 22^nd of September (for those of you who get the collector’s edition) or the 30^th of September (for those of you who don’t want the onion helm). But the game does have a few things that are familiar to the avid FF player. The cactuar has popped up on the beastiary, gil is the usual money, there is a moogle type race (minus the head tuff) called Lalafell that you can play as, and Akihiko Yoshida is back as the art director after doing FF 12. Overall FF 14 will be much better then FF 11! It has come leaps and bounds since then and will only get better as they add expansions.

If you want to be a beta for this game go to http://entry.ffxiv.com/na/index.html , until August 17, 2010.

All data is from http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/# where you can see all official updates and info on FF 14.

So I am going to make this quick! I have started my job and am actually going in stores today! It's a lot to take in but over time I think I can get it pretty easily! It's pretty easy because I can make my schedule for the next 6 weeks and know when I am working and when I am out of town! If you want to know I will be in Portland tomorrow through Sunday and 23ed-26th or 27th for training! Then again for a wedding on September 17th. I will be going to the coast for 2 or 3 nights from the 7th to the 10th and am hoping to have a blast! Anyway just wanted to let you all know what was up!

So i start my new job tomorrow and I am so excited! I will be working with a girl called Sarah and she will tell me how to do things. I can't wait!

It's always fun to have the kids here! We also had Aaron and Anna and their kids here also. It felt like we were in Portland again! That's on thing I miss most of Portland is all the coming and goings of family. We might be going to a park today with the kids. It has a water thing where the kids can run around and play so it will be fun. Working really hard on my karaoke songs that I picked out! I'm going to rock it tomorrow night! I picked A thousand miles by Vanessa Carlton and My Immortal by Evanescence! I might sing a called Addicted by Saving Able but that might not happen depending on time and stuff. Anyway pray hard for Aunt Pam!

I am trying to reconnect with old friends! I sent a message to an old boss and an old boyfriend! I wanted them to know I have not forgotten them and what I have been up to! It's a little nerve racking doing this for fear of rejection. But oh well if they do reject me.

Aunt pam is still in ICU and we are all praying for her. I hope that she will come through and be well again.

Anyway not much happened today so thats all!

New Goals!

Was thinking about moving forward in my life and seeing if I can do things on my own. But first I think I need to get my diploma as an Administrative Assistant work at my job for a while and have some savings. My thought process is this if I make a checklist of what I need to get done before I do something it will help me become more of an adult. So here is my checklist and I will probably add to it.

• The first is I need to be comfortable in my job and be making a regular check.

• The second is I want to have a second income. Whether or not its a second job or some venture on my own I want to be able to live comfortably.

• The third is that I want to get my diploma as an Administrative Assistant. That will help me get that second part time job. This takes 6 months or more so it might take a while.

• The fourth is that I want to have over 1500 in savings for move in costs.

• The fifth is that I want most of my debts paid off.

Right now that's all Ive got but I will probably think of more as time goes on but these are my new goals I will be working for!

It's been a busy day! I had to take care of the dogs for mom since she is visiting the hospital! Boy that takes for ever! I have to wait for an hour and a half outside waiting to put the dogs inside LOL not bad though there is a great view and lots of photo ops. I really like taking artsy photos! Its a lot of fun and very relaxing! Now I am off to do laundry clean room and bathroom and a bunch of other stuff!

I tried to tell myself that I would blog more! And then I got a boyfriend and it all seemed to not matter! But now that I am unattached I am going back to what I was trying to do before! Anyway last night I went to the pub for the first time in a long time(another thing I stopped doing) and had a blast. Although I was alone I still had so much fun! There was karaoke and shirley temples! I sang twice and got 5 compliments on my voice and singing! I was shocked that they liked it LOL Terren wasn't there(really hot security guy) but I still had a blast anyway! I hope that next week Katy can come.

Today I did 23 min and burned 230 cal! I am going to start adding a core workout from a dvd I have because I just got a yoga mat and I intend to use it! My next goal and I have to save for this one is wii fit so I can do actual yoga and "sports" without having to really run. It also has this thing where it tells you how fat you are and what you need to do to get there. I think it will be good! But that will be a while from now since its like 150 or more for everything.

If you are wondering about my birth father he is doing much better and just got home a couple of days ago. He is doing intensive physical therapy and working hard. He is going to be selling off his stuff like the ATV and motorcycles and such. If you want anything tell me and I can ask him! I am hoping that I can go up to see him after I go up to Portland for the family picnic. We shall see...I might not even be able to go up there because I got a new job!

Its called advantage sales and marketing here is the website if you want to see= http://www.asmnet.com/Pages/default.aspx
I will be a retail sales merchandiser. I will be going up and down I-5 and the coast to hundreds of stores to make sure they are happy and that the merch is correct. Its a really cool job and I can't wait to start! I get an official job offer sometime next week and then I am not sure when I will be starting! Its good pay only part time but I also get paid for gas and they pay for lodging when I stay out of town. I am really excited!

Anyway thats all the updates I have for now and I hope to add this to my routine so that I can journal my life because I like to look back and laugh at what I post! For now here is a video from the Seattle Knights that came to the Rogue Renascence Fair! They were so cool and I am totally addicted to them! We cheered for the green team the entire time! LOL Woot! I will post it later as its having a hard time playing for some odd reason!

Moving along!

So if you haven't heard there will probably be a wedding next year around July! Justin hasn't asked me but since he told everyone on facebook that we were getting married next year I thought I should write about it. On June 17th we will be together for 4 months and going strong. Now I know what you are all thinking, what are we going to do from now till then.

Well I am hoping to get a surgery on my knee to relieve pressure and pain. First I have to get some health insurance then get the surgery done then go through physical therapy which will last about 2-3 months. Justin on the other hand is trying to get a decent job that pays regularly. He is also working very hard to get a computer certification so he can get a salary job working with companies and all their computer needs.

My hope is that by next year July we will be able to move to Portland after getting married but most likely we will be staying down here for at least a year and then move up. Anyway I just wanted to let you all know that I am truly in love with the man of my dreams and he loves me back! I can't wait to be married and start a family. Here's to life!

Another day

So I've had a bad couple of days. I had some insomnia and my knee was killing me. Grandma say that my knee could be reacting to the weather(which made me feel really old). Dad has once again gone up to Portland to take care of Nana and Grandpa. I really wanted to go with him but mom needed me here to take care of Sheba, a dog that we pet sit for, who's mom is in the hospital. Mom say she might not get out of the hospital for months so I have another roomy. My camera finally broke:( I am so sad! I am going to give it to a friend to see if he can fix it! So I am not sure if anyone actually reads this on here but if so I need your address so I can update a couple of things. I want to have them all on file so I can do things efficiently when the time comes. I am hoping that I can get my knee done soon! It has been interfering with my life for to long. Here's hoping!

I am so tired! I did to much this week I think! My body feels like its about to fall apart! I think today I might just do nothing! Maybe... I do need to go over to Jenna's and practice my Japanese but I don't know if I want to drive all the way out there! Maybe I should practice on my own and rest? I have also been applying for quite a few jobs and at some point I will get one! Anyway wanted to check in and tell all!

So her are some pics from my camping trip! It was so much fun and I had a blast!

Me wearing a dew-rag Jenna gave me to keep the sand out of my hair!

An artsy photo!

Another artsy photo!

Justin and I!

Seagull

Me and Jenna hiked up a small hill to get this! So beautiful!

Same!

From on top of a really high dune!

Me being silly!

A quilt I am making!

Misty was trying to hide from the sun! LOL

Fun at the Beach!

I had the best time camping with everyone! We did so many things! Jenna and I went crabbing(didn't catch anything), we all went dune-bugging, and ate to our hearts content! I have pics and vids that I will put up and explain them then. One of the best things was Forests tri-tip with his homemade sauce! He asked if I wanted a fork and knife and I was already shoving it in my mouth! Then when we were heading home we saw sea lions, eagles, a whale, and deer. It was amazing! Mom loved her gift of 3 blueberry bushes that she can now plant in OUR HOUSE! I also picked her some lilacs which are her fav flower! Anyway I will post those pics soon!

So I am off to camping! The movie went really great and was very good! Nothing much that I can say so I am keeping it short!

Ya so I am not going to do that other job. I am going to just keep trying to look for a reception job. This weekend I am going camping with a bunch of people! We are going to the coast and its going to be so much fun. It's for Jenna's birthday and so it will be even more for! I hope to rinse off some of the stress I have been accumulating. It just seems so hard sometimes but hopefully I will be able to be ok and not kill anyone! I have been looking into what movies I want to see and here is the list!

It's going to be a fun summer. Well I won't be blogging till Sunday or Monday so till then!

New Job????

So there is this thing that I am trying to see if its a good idea. It's prepaid legal services and they want me to sell them. Not sure if I can but I am looking into it. Everyone seems to be downhearted about it. Telling me no you can't or its just a scheme. The only thing is I can do very little else with my knee. It looks like if I work hard I might be able to do something but I am not sure because of all the drama with family and friends. I feel so let down and downtrodden because I don't know what to do anymore. Life just doesn't seem like its working and I don't know how to get back on track......

There is this job in Grants Pass that is for a Vet Reception person. I went and applied for it and they never called but they just added it again on craigslist so maybe I should call and see if I can get an interview? I don't know its kinda far away but it would still be a job. Anyway today I am going over to Robyns to play with her animals and then off to the LaQuinta for a meeting with some people who sell legal services. Who knows I could have a new job by the end of the day. Anyone want cheap endless legal advice? LOL I cleaned my room like majorly today. Jenesa might be staying in my room so I thought I would do that for her. I am also working on the quilt for my friend Nan. I am about 4 rows in and going strong. I get about 1-2 rows done everyday. I really want to start writing something. Not sure what but it would be so cool to be published someday. I just need to keep my focus on what I am doing and then finish it. Anyway that's all for now!

Yesterday I went to Forests birthday! I was a lot of fun and we had a great time. That night the boys went out to the pub and I stayed in with Jenna killing zombies and making quilts. We had so much fun. I got an odd message from a friend that I thought would never talk to me. She is friends with Joe so I never expected to hear from her. She wants me to help her this summer with her goats. She is showing them and need a helping hand. It sounds like fun and if I am not doing anything else I am definitely going to. I did so much yesterday and I am in so much pain today I slept in till like 11am! I feel so helpless sometimes and I hate it. I can't do other things that everyone else can do. I just want to thank everyone who helps and slows down while walking for me. Love you all!

Today I am doing a Harry Potter marathon with Justin! We started this like two days ago and aren't even done with the first one! I hope to at least be done with the first two by the end of tonight. I love hanging out with the boys. It's so much fun just being able to laugh and dink around. We went to see Hot Tub Time Machine yesterday. It was ok but had way to much boobs and butts and language for it to be a really great movie. I laughed a lot though. Mothers day is coming up and I can't wait to give mom her gift! I will make sure to get pic's so everyone can see. My friend Jenna's B-Day is coming up to and I really want to go on a camping trip for her birthday but I don't think I can go unless Justin goes. Hopefully he can get the time off. He has been working a lot lately and I really miss spending most of our time together but its for the better. Anyway update done.

Job hunting!

So today I saw a post on craigslist for a neat job at a retirement home. So I went to take my resume to them and got an interview on the spot. She said she wants to hire someone quick and that she will be in touch by the end of the week. Hopefully she calls! Also got the cutest stuffed animal from Justin today and flowers yesterday! He dotes on me and I really love that. Well till tomorrow.

So its been a while since I blog'd. No one was really reading it so I stopped. I might just because I am stuck at home try to do more but who knows. Right now I am taking a Japanese class on conversation and writing(very hard) and that's about it. My knee has been giving me more and more trouble locking up and popping at weird times plus the constant arthritic pain. Oh well I guess I have to get used to being crippled. Justin and I are doing great! We hit our 3month anniversary on the 17th of May and I am really excited for you all to meet him this summer. We will be making a trip up to Portland(most likely for the fam picnic) to see everyone(we will need places to stay) then we are going up to Ocean Shores to see my birth dad(gotta get everyone's approval). There really isn't much else going on in my life since I am hurt but I will keep you all up on stuff I think is cool ok. Love you all Hannah

P.S. Some pics from the last couple of weeks!
Uncle bill, Aunt Shannon, and Dad who walked and ran a 10mile race!

Me and Corey!

Misty decided that this little nook was worth exploring.

A vole Misty caught!

Me and Misty! She can't keep her eyes open for the flash!

A New Love!

So a lot has happened. I got so busy with everything I just haven't had the time to blog but I have a little time today and so here I am. First I just finished school and I think I did pretty well! Second I only have one job again but really need a second one. Third I have a new boyfriend named Justin and this is what I will talk about most.

We met a couple of years ago at a night capture the flag I had but really didn't talk. Then we said hello at Jenna and Forests wedding(which was so beautiful) but once again that was all. Then as I went out to the four daughters with the new married couple they had brought along a friend and that was Justin. That was the 30th of Jan. We really didn't talk much just because it was a tad awkward and in the back of my head I was wondering if Jenna was trying to set us up. On the next friday though Jenna and Forest wanted to go and I wanted to stay so I told them and the next thing I know I am deep in conversation with Justin till about 4:30am! He decided that he wanted to stay out a little longer to. So the next Saturday we went out again and stayed out till 5am just talking and having a good time. Then for the next couple of weeks we went to movies, the arcade, and just hung out to get to know one another. It was amazing and so right that on the 17th of Feb he asked me to be his girlfriend and I said yes! Our 1 month anniversary is tomorrow and I am so happy. We fit well together and rarely fight. Mind you we have had some heated discussions but no fighting and God has shown us the way of true love! People this is the one!

School!

So school is going to start up again and I am really excited! I will be taking a writing class(WR115) a core and cardio pe class and a math class(MTH60)! Its going to be hard with two jobs and everything but I need to learn how to do this! I already have spring planned out too. I will be taking WR121 MTH65 and a computer course I need to take plus maybe one more depending on how winter goes! I also want to take summer courses but they don't have that scedge out yet! But since I was behind on writing and math(not college level which is 100 courses or higher) It is going to take me longer then the regular 2 years but that is ok. Anywho thought you would all like to know what is going on! What classes are you all taking?
