So I know on my last post I said my dream was to become a Police Officer, and while that is still one of my dreams I have been thinking a lot about one of my other dreams a lot. That is to become a Lawyer! My family has always told me that I could argue with a sign post lol and it's true! I have always had a special love for debate and heated conversation!! I love Politics and being tuned into the world around me and current events! So that being said I am seriously considering the possibility of becoming a lawyer! I already plan on getting my bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice and then it would be just three more years of school after that at a Law School, and then I could be a Lawyer by the time I am 30 years old.
I know I would have a MOUNTAIN of student loans if this is what I decide to do, but I honestly feel like it would be such an amazing accomplishment for me! I finally feel like I have figured out once and for all what I am supposed to do with my life (other then be a Mommy of course) by the time I get my bachelor's degree Kila will be starting elementary school, and I feel like if I was to start law school it would be no different then having a full time every day extremely demanding job! So wish me luck on achieving my dreams and pray for me! hahaha Oh and if you are thinking right now that I can't do it you are either not a very good friend and dont believe in me or you really just dont know me :)

1 down and many to go....
So today marks 1 week that I have been trying really hard to get into shape and eat healthy...its been really hard so far but totally worth it! I feel so much better about myself...even though I am a long way away from my goal!
My dream is to become a police officer when Kila starts school (I know I have a while but that's all the more reason to start working towards it now!) Becoming a Cop has been something I have wanted to do since I was like in 7th grade...and I think if I really want it I can do it
So I started working out and eating healthy and I have a determined mind set for it....I just don't want to lose that mind set after just a week so I'm doing everything to keep myself interested and focused...
I started a "journal" I guess is what you can call it and I record everything I have eaten and the calories...I write down any exercise I did and how many glasses of water I have drank...I cut out all soda, alcohol, and sugary drinks from my diet and I feel really good to be able to say I don't drink anything but water!
I'm also doing a kickboxing class 2 nights a week (I love it) and I might be starting a TRX class too..I haven't decided on that though and I swim 2-3 nights out of the week and do a workout routine from Jillian Micheal's Monday-Friday
I record my weight every Sunday morning and then the rest of Sunday is my break day...I don't have to record anything or work out at all on Sundays...like a "treat day" and that really gives me something to look forward to!
I am already seeing a difference in the way I feel and my energy levels and I am so excited to keep working towards my goal...I suppose the reason I am writing this blog is to have something to remind myself of how great being healthy makes me feel....(plus I wouldn't mind a little encouragement either lol jk)
So wish me luck and pray for me to stay focused and reach my goal lol :)

Life (Please Read and Think About it!)
I know there is a lot of buzz of the "end of the world" in 2012.....I cant say whether I believe it or not because being a Christian and believing in every word of the Holy Bible I know that someday this world as we know it will come to an end...maybe tomorrow maybe in another 1,000 years...no one knows for sure and no one will! But I do believe (and I think the bible even says but don't take my word for it) that it will be when we least expect it They have been trying to tell us we are living in the end times for...gosh I don't even know how long!
Anyways I just wanted to write this blog to tell everyone especially the non believers that Jesus will return someday and take everyone who is saved with him to Heaven and the world that will be left behind will be a scary and cold world that makes me shudder even thinking about it...2010 was the worst year on record as far as natural disasters go and as unbelievable as it seems maybe the end is finally nearing and I think that now is the perfect time for people to start waking up and realize they need Jesus in their heart or they are going to hell simple as that...I know it seems harsh but it is! I don't want to see people I love or even just people I like not at least be informed of their options.
You cant get into heaven or be saved by doing good works, or living a "sin free" life as best you can, or going to church every Sunday....you have to be saved and ask Jesus to come into your heart....there is no other way...and I believe that with all my heart because it is what the Bible says.
It is a scary world that we are living in full of turmoil and heartache....having faith offers you comfort and peace of mind that God will always have a plan for you....he puts you through everything that you have been through thus far on purpose...to test you some might even say!
I also know that there are some of you out there that believe you have tried to have a relationship with God and you prayed for "things" or "material possessions" and when he didn't fulfill your prayer you turned your back because there must not be a god then.....HELLO! God is not supposed to be serving you and giving you things you want! We are supposed to serve him! Give him what he wants! God works in mysterious ways and if you didn't get what you asked for then maybe there is a reason for it. We live in an extremely superficial world where its not your heart or good nature that matters its the price tags on your clothes, home, or vehicle and its sad really sad.
"For God so loved the world he gave his one and only son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send his son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son." John 3:16-18
I cant even stress how important that piece of scripture is and I have been taught it my whole like and I would have to say its one of the things I am most thankful for.
"Once you ask Jesus into your life you can know that you have eternal life." John 10:28-29
I know that everything will be exactly the way it is supposed to I am so thankful I have my faith to hang onto in a world like this and I encourage anyone who is not happy with the way their life is going no matter what the problem (no matter how bad it is) to turn to the Bible...start by checking out a local community church! Most of them these days are extremely nonjudgmental "come as you are" type of place....
Well if anything I hope at least this blog will help maybe just touch one person or at least get them thinking...and if anyone has any questions email me, message me, talk to me! Anything! I am not the most knowledgeable person but I know enough and I love talking so its a Win-Win :)
