I don't think it's just me...

I woke up this morning a year older. But really, how can you age a whole year overnight? I never really understood that part.
I went to the bathroom mirror and started searching for unwanted wrinkles and hair that might be where it wasn't before. Fortunately, I have neither of those things. Apparently my only signs of aging are my stray grays... and I've had those for years. I think the first one popped out when I was around 23. So that really doesn't count.
Everyone asks me how old I'm turning and I love making them guess. Because they always say 25, 26... it's probably because I've never had kids. I'm pretty sure they age you.
So today, I will be thankful for my youthfulness and keep enjoying life as I have been. I look forward to lunch with friends and later drinks with more friends. Pleasant, laid-back and friendly.
I think turning 27 was the hardest. I felt almost thirty and like I hadn't done anything with my life. Just hopping around from city to city.

Now I'm content. Peaceful. Doing what I'd always dreamed.

Thanks for all the well-wishing...

mini-update...

I know... i'm horrible at keeping this thing updated, but right now i'm changing my mind every other day that there would be so many different and conflicting thoughts on each page.
first, i needed to leave cuz the school was going to shut down, then i got the job in Cancun, then i was going to be with the Lopez's in Manzanillo... now, i figure i'll just stay where i am... for now... that is until i change my mind again. I have my tax return in my account, so i'm not worried about money at the moment.
I've applied for this resort photographer position in Manzanillo, and i think that would be SWEET!!! But we'll see... who knows what could happen between now and when i hear about if i got it or not.
there's still the option of getting on a cruise ship. i haven't forgotten about that. its nice to know i have options. i feel stifled if i don't, but when i have TOO MANY options, i just get lost and confused and worried that i'll pick the wrong one. well, not so much the wrong one, but not the BEST one. I want to do the best thing for me.
but for now, since my job seems to be secure, i might as well stay. i've made some good friends and i would be sad to leave them right at this point.
but lately, i've visited Tarata and Moquegua. Tarata pics are posted on facebook, i'll work on the Moquegua ones tomorrow.
short and sweet, but there ya go.
