Blue.

On a scale of 1-10. I'm a 10. 

I don't know why I wanted to write that in my blog, nor is it true. 

I love green apples and sunshine. 

Green is the colour of sarcasm.

Green is the colour of money. 

Green is the colour of nature.

Green is my favourite colour. 

Third rock from the sun..

I have always said the world revolves around me, and I still believe it does. 

If you think about it, our successful attempts, our failed attempts, our hits, our misses, our plans, our dreams, our hopes, our choices, they all create our world as we know it. Too each their own, but the world can be a beautiful thing if you let it. It's really too bad that not everyone can view it this way, because optimism is key. Once people stop feeling sorry for themselves, maybe they can progress and get ahead in this world... just live a little.

I want to vom everywhere.

I have so much going on in life. There is nothing going on.

I have so many plans. They can't start yet. 

I want to cry. I forget how. 

I'm surrounded by people. I'm so alone.

I want to stay. I want to go.

I can't think anymore.

Maybe I'll just go kick rocks.

Blank.

I don't really have much to say except that I have been avoiding my blog for some odd reason. 

Over and out.

I'm going to make you cry!

Now that I know you enjoy creeping my blog every morning with your coffee while I slave away at work (mom). I thought I would put something up for you! 

LOVE YA!

Life Still has Meaning...

If there is a future there is time for mending-

Time to see your troubles coming to an ending.

Life is never hopeless however great your sorrow-
If you're looking forward to a new tomorrow.

If there is time for wishing then there is time for hoping-
When through doubt and darkness you are blindly groping.

Though the heart be heavy and hurt you may be feeling-
If there is time for praying there is time for healing.
So if through your window there is a new day breaking-
Thank God for the promise, though mind and soul be aching,

If with harvest over there is grain enough for gleaning-
There is a new tomorrow and life still has meaning.

!@#$

Time is so weird, I really don't understand it. It feels like I have been here forever but at the same time it has flown by. I'm so excited to come home but sad and nervous at the same time. 

Life is strange, life is great. 

Untitled :)

I hate wasting my days! For the past couple years I seriously have stopped sleeping in. The latest I can is probably 8:00, that is if I make myself go back to sleep. 

I'm just always too stoked on seeing what the new days has to offer, oh and I have to get up at 6:30 every day of the week... that might be a factor. 

Todays list of events:

-Out for brunch

-Surfing comp

-Fair

Note: I hate martinis. Go figure. I hate olives. (Sorry Sars, my little Wopette.) 

NEW!

I have changed up my 'routine' a little bit, for the best obvi! 

-Work out, regular basis. 

-No more soda.

-No more smoking!

-Listen to more John Mayer and Maroon 5, what of it! 

-Use my white strips daily and my retainer nightly :) lol ya I'll share that with the world! 

Plane ticket.

PLEASE!

Somebody give me a plane ticket!!!!

Electronics.

I'm surrounded by too many of them. 

I really do believe we will turn into robots in the future, because we are so dependent on technology and electronics. I hope in the future a robot reads this and was like, wow Alyscia Sutch is going down in history, because she is a brilliant soul. 

June Gloom.

They call it June Gloom, because it's not 80 degrees and sunny. I find it to be beautiful, even if it is a bit cloudy. 

This weekend was an amazing experience, and I did a lot of things I normally wouldn't do.

1. Surf in Laguna Beach. 

2. Ride a pink bicycle to Santa Monica Pier. 

3. Drive to Venice Beach, better known as a freak show. 

For the record, LA is grungy and not what you would expect. Also, I am a bomb ass driver. I wish you cold see the freeways and interstates here, it is ridiculous. 

Note to self: Stop drinking soda. 

No hay mal que por bien no venga.

Saying goodbye is never easy. I find it takes me a bit to adjust back into different settings, ones that I was once quite comfortable with. Once I get back, I don't want to let go and surely enough I have to.

It is easy to adjust to new surroundings and make those the norm, it is even easier to forget how much you miss the little things that at one time or another, made you want to escape from reality. 

Reality is, I need to find a norm that is only mine, with anything else I may want attainable.

"There is not bad from which good doesn't come."

Horizon.

Cali is starting to grow on me, a lot. Being near the water is so amazing and I am going to miss it so much. I realized that I need to live by/on the water. It is so refreshing, for more than the obvious reason, it helps clear the mind and allows me to think about what I want and how I will get there. 

I've been doing research on condos that are on the water, and in a short amount of time, I should be able to buy one and obtain this goal, like the other ones I have set my mind to. 

Some may think this is a bad idea, but in reality...I'm done school and will have a bomb job, it's actually a great idea! I love sunshine and the water. If I could bring EVERYONE to Cali, I would stay in a heartbeat, but since I can't...I will be coming back in approx. 60 days. 

:)

"Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence."

The little things.

Whenever I'm not feeling like myself, or complete for that matter I can always find a song on my itunes to relate. It helps. Right now I am so stuck. It feels like I should be moving forward, but I can't. It seems like there is so much back home, and I just want to somehow find my way back. As for now, it's not an option. This will only make me stronger in the end, and it gives me time to think about what I want in the next few years. I have a pretty good idea. 

Post Script.

Somehow this 'blog' has become more of a journal, which evidently, most are. From now on I'm going to focus on the positives, kind of like a story. 

(The title is a song by Colbie Caillat, I love it.) 

This Weekend.

So I have been on the west coast for almost 6 weeks now, surprisingly I have been to the ocean, just not in it. This weekend is going to be beauty for several reasons. It is going to be nice and sunny out so I will get to work on my tan more because if I come back to Ontario and look like I lived in the arctic for four months, I won't hear the end of it. We are also going out on the yacht, and just got two new sea-doos so I will hopefully get to use those too. I got a new wake boarding wetsuit that I am really stoked on wearing since I wouldn't have been able to wear it until I went out on my boat at home. 

Pittsburgh just won, thank the lord Jesus Christ. I wonder when the next game is... Saturday? 

I want a blizzard. All this time I thought we didn't have a DQ and then I found out, we do. I think I would have rather not known. Peanut butter cup blizzard. Delicious. 

Blue Sweater.

I went shopping on Sunday and bought a bunch of new things! This includes, an adorable dress, an orange water bottle (more or less aluminum or something). Okay great, I just read the bottle and it's made in China. I wish I would have read that when I bought it because chances are, I wouldn't have. Back on topic. I also got three headbands, white, black and pink. They don't compare to the best purchase of the day, my blue sweater. You see, I have never had a blue sweater like this before, I just had to have it, and when I put it on and look in the mirror, (don't tell me you wouldn't do the same) my eyes appear to be 10x bluer, and I like that :)

Things to look forward to: 

1. Both my parents and little hoodlum brother are coming to visit next Wednesday, oh boyyyy!

2. My cousins are coming to visit on June 20th, one from BC, the other from Alberta. We are going to L.A for the weekend to surf and stuff. 

3. August 10th--if you matter, you will know why. I don't need to explain it.

Later days. 

June 2nd, 10:30 p.m.

There comes a time when you must stand alone.

You must feel confident enough within yourself to follow your own dreams.

You must be willing to make sacrifices.

You must be capable of changing and rearranging your priorities so that your final goal can be achieved.

Sometimes, familiarity and comfort need to be challenged.

There are times when you must take a few extra chances and create your own realities.

Be strong enough to at least try to make your life better.

Be confident enough that you won't settle for a compromise just to get by.

Appreciate yourself by allowing yourself the opportunities to grow, develop, and find your true sense of purpose in this life.

Don't stand in someone else's shadow when it's your sunlight that should lead the way.

Change in pace.

So here I am, sitting in Cali getting excited because I think I'm coming home early. But then that plan quickly changes, which in a sense is very unfortunate because there are a couple of things that make me want to leave early. Don't get me wrong, I love California and one day would like to come back to live, if I wasn't so alone. Thankfully, there are a few bomb people right now that make being here much easier! Really though, if you think about it, I've been in this world for quite some time now and all I need to do is get through two short months? Like come on Aly, don't be such a baby. In the end it will be worth it, really worth it. 

I'm just so excited for another chapter in my life to begin, even though I'm only 19 I think I'm way ahead of the game. I just want to do well in life, have a nice house, be able to travel and just be stable. Okay, I'm getting way too ahead of myself, but honestly there is just so much opportunity out there and I am grateful to have had this one. 

Lost.

But remember it's for the best. Dumb baby.

Long Lost Love.

Even though I'm not a professional by any means I took on the task of showcasing a wedding album for someone I met in Cali. 
She doesn't take the pictures (or else she wouldn't have had me do it), She designs them and they all look really bomb and cost more than my plane ticket x 2. This is the same person who gave me the idea to blog more, and evidently, it's taking over my life. (Not that I really had one to begin with). I just wanted to brag about how amazing I am at everything including photog (jk). I put this up so my family thinks I'm keeping busy and loving life. :)

P.S I have tried to upload a picture, and of course it doesn't want to work properly! 

The end.

People always confuse us for twins.

The best gift ever given, by any human. M.L <3

I miss these stinky pups.

When I get home I promise to: 
1. Feed you EVERYday, but not too much Trent because you're a fatty :) 
2. Give you ice cubes whenever I go into the kitchen. 
3. Take you for long walks...in the forest (unless it's raining) 
4. Tuck you in at night and kiss your nose. 
5. Oh and Daisy, I'll make sure you don't get left out too much. 
<3

Inspired.

With almost four weeks of being here and meeting many great new people, I became inspired and decided to begin a fresh new blog. I won't keep this one hidden since I have seen the creativity and passion that one can let out and share with those near or far. After all, I am stuck on the west coast for a few more months. I might as well make the best of it and create something I will be able to look back on! 
 

In a random conversation today, a man was talking indirectly about why people decide to travel so much and go to different places as if they NEED to get somewhere. He said, "they aren't running to get somewhere, they are running from something." With that said, I pretended to cry out loud, those of you who know me can probably picture this. He realized what he had said and laughed as if I was a comedian... (little did he know, I am) 

Motivation.

...Because we all need it sometimes;

"Do not wait; the time will never be 'just right.' Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along."

:)

Change.

40 days.

A million and one things to do, and to think, it's just over a month away. I guess when you want something bad enough, it comes with time. I don't even know where to begin.

It's going to be a different world, but quite the experience. Four months is a long time, but I'm sure it will fly by just like the past two years. Who would have thought. 

Live and learn, don't hold back. 

Change.
