i'm DUNzo!

alright, i'm not real sure how to begin tis blog since so much has happened in these last few months that even i can't fathom how twist'd it has all been, but so far on what i feel the need 2 share is that, i'm much more happy now and it's completely evident but at the same time i feel as a part of me has gone awry. here's the brkdown 2 my personal debacle. . .u sure u want in???

+++moms spent a good six weeks being my personal shrink, friend, and sitter and i jst love this woman w/ such a passion that i miss her so terribly!

+++filed for divorce a day b4 my 7th wedding anniversary w/ barr. that was three months ago n still no mediation or court date set. all of this jst stings, but i'm takin' the hits and feelin' so numb w/ it.

+++i officially moved out two wks ago, but got a pad of my own 20 mins from our townhome, so it's a whole lot convienient on commute for work and less awkward for barr and i 2 have our lil' run-ins. also, i'll b able 2 save on $$$ for the anticipated move. . .

+++spkin' of move, i've decided 2 pack up and permanently move back home 2 samoa. i'm on a 5-7 yr plan of making something happen for myself and the boys, and the goals i have mapped 4 the timeline is a priority and not in the backburner still brewing w/ time. it's gonna happen. . .all of it, and i'm so x-cited! can't ya c me glee w/ delight?! lol

+++turning 30 come nxt wk, wed (sept. 5th) and it will b an awesome awakening for me personally and i am so looking forward to it. this weekend i'll b joining sum bffs on a getaway trip 2 vegas, so thats a b-day wish come true in all aspects. gonna keep it classy and mellow for the most part, i'm totally diggn' this new high i'm ON!

+++lost a total of 25lbs of absolute f.a.t and eatin' quite HEALTHY -- got this tat a decade ago that reminds 2 do jst that on how i live my life. it's a tripp i tell ya. . .

what's in a name?

i guess an intro is in order, seeing how this is my first official "blog-fest" of sorts and i'm actually excited by it all. can't ya see my almost koolaid smile?! well, it's true! because beforehand, 'bout two and a half years ago, i use to post random thoughts on my then personal site called "Julia's Domain" on yahoo. only recently did i decide to retire it entirely, the domain name & bandwidth, ie. . .long story short, i somehow landed in the pages of "blogger" mania and in a nutshell, it's great to have found a home for my future e-blogs-a-plenty. ya like that?! ha! of course, if you're still debating if you should continue to read anymore of my sweet nothings, than i promise you that you won't be disappointed because i've got the magic. . .stick?! well, not really. . .but you'll be my A. my new best "cyber-pal" & B. you're so way COOL. . .and smart, even!

okay, so before i start goin' on & on & on & on. . .oops, i meant to stop at on #2. . .'bout ME, two things: i prefer to type in small case, so only if i plan to emphasize a word or two, will i use caps -- bottomline, small caps is my thang. plus, it looks way HOTTER. don't ya agree?! and 2. please no hating on the blog, wo-/MAN! if ya feel the need to cut me were it hurts, than BRING IT, but elsewhere. . .ya dig?! other than that, COMM-ents, -pliments are always welcomeD!!! and, constructive criticism is appreciated as well. so show any kind of lovin', in whatever shape or form, and mind ya i did say "LOVE".

alrightie then, enough with the damn formalities, sheesh. . .so i'll begin by jabbin' 'bout. . .ME, of course! hehehehehe. . .whaaaAT?! ;D i'm a mom of two boys, uh duh. . .hence, the "mom of steel" & shai-styles, and let's not forget wifey to hubby B. [stay tuned for pics galore] and lately, working out incessantly is my thing now, next to family life. get this, i have 24-hr gym membership but slackin'. . .bigTIME, although, i've been optin' 2 play tennis instead. and so far, it's been exhiliarating! tryin' 2 get back down into a size 2 since movin' up to murrieta, ca & then back down to san diego, ca. and yeah, i'll say it. . .i blame the weight gain from wence moving out to pleasantville!!! teehee! but seriously folks, 2 yrs livin' in the suburbs and i gained you ready for this. . .20 plus pounds. . .it sorely SUCKS when nadda fits ya anymore. and i refuse 2 storage my smaller clothes, b/c i have it in my thick brain that eventually, it'll fit! lol yes ppl, i'm in DENIAL, even big sis, june, says it so too. but i'm driven 2 run, run, run. . .no matter how long or how fast, i'm determined to get back down to my widdle widdle-ol'self. . .younger sis, k8 is here visiting d'aygo from AmSam -- she too is trying to shed 'bout the same amount. . .so i got my workout partna-in-crime and i think i'll be set to reach my target goal weight of $1.05. . .[gulp]. . .uh, kiddin'. . .get a grip, ppl!

so i don't know if any of ya noticed, but i am in fact. . .SAMOAN! yeah, like how could ya, no pics of any kine. . .not that it matters, but i'd like ya ppl to get an idea of who this lil' suga [chick] ish. so make sure you come hungry & leave your slippas at the door so i can rap to ya sum tasty palusami. . .welcome anyone & everyone with open-arms, that's jst the way it is. we wear our hearts & pride on our sleeves, but believe me don't take us for a fool b/c we do damage, and in the literal sense too!
so in a nutshell, born & raised on my island of American Samoa aka AmSam. and yes, there still exists two Samoa's, located in the heart of the South Pacific ocean. . .two Samoa's, indeed. . .did i stutter?! this is true, so if ya don't believe me, then do some research on Google or visit your local library for an Atlas?! damn, do they still make those?! and no, i won't spend the next two or three paragraphs giving a free geography lesson on the matter, but jst know, that two islands of Samoa still exist. . .American Samoa & Samoa. . .so get it right, y'hurd?!

basically, left "home" at the tender & naive age of 17 to attend college. did a whole lot of growing up 'bout how the real world works, fell in love too many times to count, & somehow settled here in d'aygo. oh yes, i remember how i ended up here, but rather go into anymore of details, jst know this. . .that i still love & miss "home", terribly. and someday soon, i'll return to the islands along with the family. but until then, this here lil' suga is livin' life to it's full max here in sunnyville san diego, ca. life's been real good to us, a struggle at first, but all lessons learned nonetheless. . .and so it seems like the heavens have been watching over us all along, and for that i'm eternally thankful for all that i have, my life and my family.

and before i forget, the name is jst. . ."J"! blessings ;D
