I don't know what happened when I posted, but part of my entry was lost (and I can't remember all of it), so it's a little shorter now.  Anyway,  so here it is.
Well other than my brief update about getting into grad school, it's been a while since I've said much of anything.  Let's see, what have I done since my last update...  So I'm still working ( Read more... )

So I know it's been a while since I've updated, but I haven't had too much to say...until now.  I got in to grad school!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I'm going to VCU for chemical engineering!  I just found out yesterday.  I'll still be working full time, so life is going to get really busy in the next coming months, but it will be worth it.  Anyway, I just ( Read more... )

So I really wish I could quit my job. It's really getting bad. This whole being bought thing really has messed up our lab, and the morale at the lab is terrible. Everyone is so stressed out, no one is happy to be at work anymore, and everyone is so on edge. Someone said to me on Friday that he hadn't seen me laugh since before everyone was let go.

So I had a pretty bad day at work today.  It actually started yesterday at work; I was working on a test and it kept messing up.  It seems like that's been happening a lot lately with the stuff that I do.  Now I'm usually pretty confident in my work, but when stuff keeps messing up and not working, it gets really frustrating, and with our lab being ( Read more... )

So it's now 2007.  It sounds like a lot of people had a lot of fun with their New Year's Eve celebrations.  You wanna know how I spent my New Year's Eve?  At home, miserably laying on the sofa as I battled some kind of stomach virus.  Woo hoo.  Now here I am, 2 days later, still miserably laying on the sofa trying to get over this.  Ugh, I'm tired ( Read more... )

Merry Christmas season all!  This is my absolute favorite time of the year.  I was counting down the days until thanksgiving for like a month.  Thanksgiving was fun; everyone went to my grandma's house.  I made a mint chocolate cheesecake for dessert, and I think it came out really well.  That was the first time I've ever made a cheesecake before ( Read more... )

It's been a few weeks since I've updated.  Well, Sarah Amick recommended that I try the church that Melissa Fallen works at, Huguenot Road Baptist, so I went there a few weeks ago, and I really like it.  It reminds me a lot of Ferry Farm, even down to the chandelier in the sancutary (it's the exact same one that ferry farm has).  So far people are ( Read more... )

Hmmm, where to start, where to start.  First, last Wednesday while I was at work, my aunt called me and said that my mom and Steve had been in a car accident. She said that they both were able to get out of the car and walk around, so it wasn't anything serious as far as injuries go, but she said that my mom was complaining of back and next pain, ( Read more... )

Hmmm, what did I want to say in my update? Well, I think I've gotten settled into my apartment now. I unpacked my last box last weekend; I felt really accomplished. My roommate Brett (& best friend) is a Latin teacher at one of the local high schools, and last Friday we went to the football game at her school. It's a brand new school, there ( Read more... )

Well I've now moved out of my mom's house, and I have to say, it's about time. I'm so excited about living in my new apartment. Well Brett's and my apartment. I'm living in Midlothian now, which is south of Richmond. My mom keeps reminding me that it's farther away from where I work than my house was. It's only like a 5 minute longer drive. I ( Read more... )
