I absolutly love to fight fires and save people from the snares of death. I love hanging with my friends and listening to anytype of music that happens to be on the radio at the moment. Strip 'em and flip 'em - (No not in that way, it pertains to prehospital emergency care)

Here's the news

Ya know, this is the first time I've been on this space for a really long time. I'm all addicted to myspace now. If you wanna check me out there go to htt://www.myspace.com/onnabelle I keep that for the most part up to date.
So this guy I was telling you all about. That is done and over with. I thought he was a sweetheart and everything I wanted but really he is a jerk. The butthead won't even speak to me now. Tells me to hold off take a break and he'll call me in a month. Well that was 7 months ago. Yeah he was everything I've ever looked for in a guy but I guess I'll just have to move on. Oh yeah thats right I did. I love making his life as misserable as he made mine. I swear his heart breaks everytime I see him. Oh DAMN!
Had a couple of friends, well a mutual friend of his and mine, tell me I need to put my profile up on some singles websites. So I did, and within days I had a couple of hits. I persued one, good pick I tell myself. One who understands the need for adrenalin as much as me! YAY! Fire Fighting adrenalin that is. Went on a date with him and had a blast!!!! Hopefully I'll get a second here in the near future. I'd definately like to get to know him better. We have a heck of a lot in common.
What else is new. Oh I'm workin at the Pizza Station. Yeah, I said I was gonna get the hell out of dodge, but I'm still here. I'm preparing to bowl in a league this summer. Lookin forward to that if I can get my average back up to where I started at. Still workin on the ambulance and once agian loving it.
So anyhow, thats bout it for now. If you wanna keep better updated, catch me at myspace. Till the next time I'm on here, peace out!! Love ya'll

Wow, its getting cold outside!

GOOD MORNING MIAMI!
Actually Connell is nowhere near Miami! Dang, I hate when I remind myself of that! It has been one long day for me and its going to be a very short night. Tomorrow, actually today since it is 1 am, i am going to go and do my sister's hair. Its Glitz and Glamour day at the HS...homecoming week. Tara went in and had her hair highlighted today and so she wants it al glamourous today. It'll kinda fit. Hope she's not expecting much out of my hairstyling, I struggle enough with my own hair. This means I have to get up in, oh no, less than 5 hours depending on when I actually get to sleep. Thankfully I get to go back to sleep.
Lets see what is new in my life. Well, I was seeing someone...yes, me, dating a guy! Believe it or not. That day I rode with the PD, it was with him. Found out we had a TON in common. We started talking everynight after he'd get off work at Walkaway Ridge, for 3 or 4 hours at a time. That was a lot of long nights. After 3 weeks of talking, him and I took a Taco Bell run at midnight for one of our friends. On the way back, he asked me out, just minutes before I was going to ask him. So we went shooting together with a budy of his before "the date" then caught dinner and a movie. Needless to say we didn't have much to talk about but it was still a blast. He is everything that I've ever looked for in a guy. 2 weeks after our first date, I took him out and it didn't go as well. too many people are bringing up marriage to both of us, way too soon into a relationship. So the next day he said he wanted to slow down, was sposed to call and never did. I finally talked to him and we both agree we were going way to fast. I mean, every night for a month and a half of talking for 3-4 hours at a time. So now, I set here patiently while he is hunting wishing I was still with him. I hope he figures out what he wants and comes back to me. I miss him, damnit! I hate when I do that.
Went to Ellensburg last week and had a BLAST! Forgot how much I miss the college life. All the good looking guys, the environment and good company with my friends. I was going to go to the Oak Rail with my good gal-pal Lisa, whom I was staying with. Well, 2.5 liters of wine later, and some shots of tequila there was no way we'd make it the 10 blocks to the bar. All I wanted to do was go bumpin and grindin with the hotties. But, just sittin and talkin with my best gal-pal was worth it. Still felt pretty good the next day, she didn't tho. Gotta love drinkin everyone under the table and not getting a hangover. God I miss Ellensburg! Sometimes I wish I was still in school!
Now I'm spending my days looking for a job that I'd like. Not too far from home. Hoping to move to Tri-Cities soon after getting a job. Of course my sister will be moving in with me, but thats all cool. She'd have a better life living with me than the situation she is in now. Yes, I have tons of family drama going on right now. But I have my mind on other, better things. I am still happier now than I have been in years. I'm finally making decisions on what I want to do with my life.
The weather you ask? Couldn't ask for better weather. It has been POURING off and on since Friday. We have probably received more rain the the past three days than we have in any one year. Its been absolutely amazing. Of course, some farmers are not happy about it, especially those with hay on the ground or those trying to dig their spuds. Luckily I'm just the Urban Cowgirl...AKA city girl! There are times I wish I was a cowgirl. It would be fun. But then again, I wouldn't look good in the hat! Dang!
Believe it or not, I actually threw a bunch of stuff I didn't need away! I was starting to think I was a pack rat like my mom, HA. I just filled up an entire garbage can....ya know those that collect the trash for the entire week that the garbage man comes and empties....up. I took at least 7 boxes of crap out of my room. I even consolidated 3 and 1/2 totes into 2! Its amazing. I did it! I'm so proud of myself. Once I get my own place there's no way I'd have room for the half of it! I'm learning...hehe.
Anyhoo its now like 10 till 2 and I'm thinking its bed time. So Happy Day too all of you!
Too all of you I've lost touch with, I miss ya'all
Love ya' all,

Funny Home Remedies! Enjoy!

1. If you are choking on an ice cube, don't panic. Simply pour a cup of  boiling water down your throat and presto! The blockage will be almost instantly removed.

2. Clumsy? Avoid cutting yourself while slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them while you chop away.
3. Avoid arguments with the missus about lifting the toilet seat by simply  peeing in the sink.
4. High blood pressure sufferers: simply cut yourself and bleed for awhile, thus reducing the pressure in your veins.
5. A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock will prevent you from rolling over and going back to sleep when you hit the snooze button.
6. If you have a bad cough, take a large dose of laxatives, then you will be afraid to cough.
7. Have a bad toothache? Hit your thumb with a hammer, then you will forget about the tooth ache.

Sometimes we Just Need to Remember What the Rules of Life Really are...

You need only two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape.
     If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40.
     If it moves and shouldn't use the duct tape.
The five most essential words for a healthy, vital relationship are "I apologize" and "You are right."

Everyone seems normal until you get to know them.
If you woke up breathing, congratulations! You have another chance!

And Finally . . . Be Really Good to Your Family and Friends......
You never know when you are going to need them to empty your bedpan!

Once upon a midnight dreary

Halloo everyone and summer....
Well, it has been an interesting summer to say the least. I spent most of the summer working on finishing up my paramedic certificate through the Purser Paramedic Program. 1 month before I'd be done with the program I made the decision that I am not ready to be a medic. I don't feel that I am old enough to make the many decisions that must be made. And no maturity does not have anything to do with this. I was also lacking much needed experience and was beginning to burn out. I was absolutely hating EMS. Now that I have been out for 2 weeks, I'm starting to enjoy EMS again...finally!!! After telling my parents and medic director that I wasn't ready, there was this HUGE weight lifted off of my shoulders and I am happier right now than I have been in over 4 months!!! YAY for ME! Now to get out of Connell. I am going to start applying for jobs in Tri-Cities and see where that gets me. I will have completed all the requirements for my BS in Paramedic except one frosh class...Astronomy, ikky! So far no regrets as to my decision. Now if only my parents would quit telling me that they are disappointed in my decision. This was the biggest and hardest decision that I have had to do in my life! I figure in 4 or 5 years I might actually be ready to be a medic, then I'll reapply and hopefully make it through successfully. And in a couple of years I might get back into my law days. I did a ride along with the PD the other week and realized how much I missed those days. Oh to have them back. But then again, that was my only life. The highschool life what was that. I missed all the dances, games and all other fun events that the school had on weekends. WHY DID I DO THAT??? I dunno. Now after having 3 years off I am ready to return. Watch out baby here I come!
Lets see here, what else is new in my life. Umm, a whole lot of NOTHING! I move back in with the parents, but that was as soon as spring quarter was over, but I never spent any time here. Still no guys in my life, but there are a couple prospects.  I think I am turning into a girly girl now, I haven't quite figured out if that is a good or bad thing. I am cooking...isn't this the guys job...cleaning, cut my hair semi short with some layers, and highlighted it with several different colors. Discoverd from the highlights that I would look like crap as a blonde. I'm even doing my nails and keeping them long for once in my life. Even dressing girly. What is wrong with me. I know, I haven't really fought any fires this year to remind me how much I like to get down and dirty! Unless you walk away from a fire with suit on your face, it ain't no dang fire!
Anyhoo, I think this is about it for now. So Peace out...~Smooch~

How are you Summer?

I survived finals about 3 weeks ago. Passing all my classes with A's and B's...very exciting for me. The night after my last final, i spent my last night ever in the residence halls. Thank god that is over! I then went out and got completely inubriated, and to a party the next night where I was the ONLY sober on in sight. Soon I was working everywhere! 72 hours on and 24 hours off. Just long enough to drive to and from where I am going and stop somewhere along the way to do laundry.
I just got home from spending 2 nights and 3 days at Ocean Shores with the girls. It was great to get away and have no worries, well except scoping out the few guys that were there. Spent several hours playing in the ocean, even swimming about 50 yards from a seal, yes a seal. At first we couldn't figure out what it was, then it came a little closer. That was awesome. We also had fawns eating the grass in the back yard. It was quite amazing. Spent the evening  a little intoxicated, making Uno into a drinking game. I discovered that Vodka and Monster energy drinks mess me up fast. thankfully I only had one!  That was one long trip for me though. A little over 6 hours from Connell to Ocean Shores.  WOW, it was worth the drive though!
Anyhow its almost bed time, but first I must pack my bags for my shift tomorrow. Have a wonderful night, sweet dreams!

So there I was...

So there I was, laying on my floor with computer infront of me as I was thinking to myself, dang I need to get to work. "Work, Ha, what do you think I've been doing all day," I told myself!

Well truthfully, I wasn't there, I was here, laying on my floor with books all around me telling myself I need to study. My final is Life or Death tomorrow. Study. I've been doing that for the past 2 days when I haven't been interupted by many, many other much more important things. Comprehensive, eh, that will be easy. After two days of practicals assessing "patients" writtens are easy, Right?? We'll see. After all, I have been technically studying this stuff for the past three years. NOT. This stuff is new and improved and was discovered to drive me nuts!!! Which for those of you who know me well, know it doesn't take much!

Thinking back about this entire quarter, I realize it has flow by. Wow, just yesterday I was attending the first day of paramedic school. Look at me now...I'm inches away from being a medic! Can YOU believe it? I can't! Who woulda thunk that a small town girl such as myself would survive! I DID IT! Now if only I had all the classes I need to graduate. That will come with time, after I make a little bit of money and can come back. Honestly, schools need to explain everything in writing to the measly little freshmen like I once was. I would have been ready to graduate if they had. I have the credits, but not enough upper division...even if I finish my minor! Suckage!

So here I am still laying on my floor, remenissing about the past and realizing how much I miss Connell and my Sr year there. Much good times to be had! Not that there haven't been good times to be had here! Last Thursday baby, WOW, what a night! The CHS crowd in my dorm room, drinking booze and getting smashed! That is a night to remember. I wonder how many pics were snapped of me pulling my shirt back to my body? Hmmm...I'll have to wait for the film to be developed now! Who would have thought that I'd be drinking with friends that are two years younger?! Wow! What was I thinking? HEHE...just kidden!

So here I go, still lying on my floor saying "I really need to be studying but I need food!" But I shall sign off now, telling stories is fun and games but studying calls my name! Hope you all have a wonderful week and for those of you whom I haven't talked to since FOREVER, I miss ya and love ya'll! Peace!
