It is official!!!!

My new blog is up and running!

After much thought and consideration, editing and criticizing, I have made a fighting attempt at creating something that is not only aesthetically pleasing but also a show case in which to present my work.

Now, I ask for you to come and check it out! And let me know what you think. There are a couple pieces already waiting for you to read.

Thank you for your sweet support and patience.

Love you all!

Something new

Good Friday to you all!

I hope you have had a very fulfilling and satisfactory week and go into this weekend with no stress and a carefree agenda. That is my plan, at least!

I wanted to share something with my most favorite followers (however many of you there are) about a new endeavor of mine.

I will be launching a new blog, in addition to this one, in a matter of days. I am particularly excited about this expedition because it is centered around my biggest passion in life: writing. I welcome you, and would love for you, to follow me along this adventure. I need as much support as I can get!

Basically, this idea transpired a few weeks ago. I had been wanting to start a capsule of my writings and allow the world to read the stories as they unfold. And seeing as it is getting down to the wire before I graduate, I needed to find an outlet in which I can showcase my work for potential job opportunities and I guess just to get my stuff out there. I guess it's time that I announce that I want to write professionally?? When I started My Life Uncovered a little over two years ago, it was just a place where I could write, ramble, update, share personal transformations, yadda, yadda. I kept it low key; almost as a secret. Most of my friends don't even know I have a blog. Why is that, Jill? Why feel the need to be so secretive? I guess I just wanted something that I could call my own and escape without having watchful, judging eyes on my world. Trust me, to those faithful few that read my sparse entries, you have made this experience more than worth it. Thank you for taking the time. It is my hope, however, that this new blog will be much more public-- let's cross our fingers I don't botch anything up!

Alas, do not be afraid! I will continue to write on this blog as much as possible. This is my personal, intimate space for close friends and family or whoever wants to read about my life. The other blog is going to be more professionally based without much personal reference (if I can help it ;)).

I will let you know when it is up and running and at that time, I'm sure I will beg you, again, to go check it out. Love you all!

Forever young

Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power but we never say never
Sitting in a sand pit, life is a short trip
The music's for the sad man

Forever young, I wanna be forever young
Do you really want to live forever?
Forever and ever.

2.8.2011

Today's horoscope for the oh-so-happy Cappy:

"For you, Capricorn, relationships with other people should be going so well that you feel more loved than ever. A new friend or perhaps an old one you haven't seen in a while could suddenly become a powerful part in your life. You're probably feeling exceptionally innovative and more likely to make a success of whatever new ideas you have. Prepare for a busy and satisfying day."
-horoscope.com

This couldn't ring more true for me today. In fact, I had a conversation with Ky earlier that went something like this: (after having released the many pent up ideas surrounding my brain for what is to come)
J: I'm an innovator!!
K: Yes, and often people call me a dreamer. Innovating and dreaming go hand in hand.
J: Well it makes sense. I am the innovator and you are the dreamer, and we go hand in hand.
He takes my hand, and I grasp it.

He proceeds to thank my cup of coffee for the pep in my step. He says that everytime I drink coffee I am unstoppable; I become something fierce and the determination and exuberance flood my whereabouts. And he likes it. He says I should drink it more often. Something in which I intend to do.

We had been chatting about the many things we want to see in our future and I couldn't help but feel this surge of unrelenting energy and verve for my life. I am at the cusp of something monumental, I just wish I could tell you what it is. But it remains to be seen. However, the feeling is undescribable.

Maui, No Ka Oi !

Wishing to be back in this beautiful place. Maui was so good to us!
