BSB Cruise 2016



I thought it would be a good time for a blog post since it’s been awhile. Truthfully, I haven’t been keeping up with BSB news that good lately. Just been really busy with work and dating. Anyway, the big news that was announced that I’m sure everyone heard of by now is the 2016 BSB European Cruise that visits Barcelona, Cannes, and Florence.

I always, always wanted to go to Italy and was very excited about the news until I found out how much it would cost for me to fly to Barcelona to board the ship. It would be about as much as the cruise itself. I couldn’t justify spending that much just to get on the ship so I won’t be participating this year.
Beautiful Florence, Italy
I also didn’t like the idea of just being able to spend one day in Italy. I guess one day in Italy would have been better than no day in Italy but I’m hoping to take a separate trip there someday where I could really have the time to focus on the culture and history of that beautiful country. There just wouldn’t be enough time to thoroughly explore Florence and BSB. It really sucks that I can’t be there, but I wish everyone so much fun. 

I’m trying to focus on the positives of not going on the cruise lol. Like not having to deal with crazy fans, not having to endure  two 12-hour flights, having money to spend on other things, and not having the stress of worrying about everything that leads up to it. I definitely plan on attending any and all BSB related events that happen to be in Illinois anytime soon. Seriously, Nick needs to come back to Illinois so I don’t lose my sanity haha. 

I’m also trying to distract myself from the realization that I’m not going on the cruise by looking forward to this summer. I’m so excited for the warm weather and all the great things that come along with summer like swimming, concerts, and fireworks. I don’t have too many concerts lined up so far, but I’m hoping that will change. Right now I’m going to see two rock festivals with my brother and Weird Al with a friend, but I need to find something to do that was my idea. I did sign up to do a color run with a friend from work and that’s coming up in two weeks. It’ll be fun and it’s something I always wanted to do!
Can't wait to get covered in paint!
I do want to keep dating during the summer and as of right now, I’ve had about ten dates so far. Every date has wanted to see me again so I’m glad it seems I am a good date. Of course I’ve turned a few down for compatibility reasons, but there’s still potential and I’m learning more and more of what I want and don’t want in a man. I realize that not one guy will be perfect, but I’m looking for perfect for me and there’s certain deal breakers for me as I’m sure there are for them. It’s been fun and exciting. It’s also been nice that my weekends are being filled up with meeting fun, new people. The ultimate goal is to find a wonderful man to marry, but I realize that takes time so right now I’m just going with the flow and having fun until it gets to a point where I would want to be exclusive with someone and see where that leads. 

Work has been going well. We just kicked off our summer reading club and we’ve been busy with that. My youth creative writing club is staying strong. I’ve been having to work every Saturday for five weeks and this Saturday will be my last for a while. I’m so looking forward to having a full weekend and want my Saturdays free for dates lol. Although, I have been squeezing in dates after work…even though I’m exhausted.
Our summer reading club theme.
My personal life has been alright. I’m having trouble sleeping because I keep having nightmares about my mother’s passing. Also, I ended up having to go to the hospital for an extreme case of vertigo, which I never experienced before. I’m sure this is all stress related and I’m trying to deal with it the best I can. It doesn’t help that my life feels so fast-paced right now, but I don’t want the life of a 90-year-old granny lol. I want to experience everything life has to offer and don’t want to slow down so my life consists of work, gym time, dating, and trying new things. I’m excited to see how this summer will turn out and if I’ll have a special someone to watch the fireworks with in July or to be with on my birthday in September. Only time will tell. 

Wishing everyone a great summer filled with nice memories and maybe a few of them with BSB ;) 

P.S. Nick just posted a picture of his new haircut! I love it! So sexy! He looks like a military man. Needs to wear some camo lol. 

Damn! lol
