I know I know....I apologize for taking so long to update ya'll on my life here in Columbia, but that's just it...I actually have a real life here in Columbia. School starts on Monday, whoppdie frikkin do! I've been working like a mad woman, 8-12 hours every day, but I do love my job. I really enjoy my teams, my coaches are great, and my co- ( Read more... )

Yep you read correctly..I'm and now $70 richer then I was this time yesterday. How did that happen? Simple. I won last nights poker game. So the deal is that the GA's here, we have a weekly poker night. I say we, but actually last night is the first time I've ever played! So I went the boys house and bought in w/ my $10 and sat to play cards ( Read more... )

So I want to go outside and layout...but it's cloudy. So I'm thinking I'm going to take my camp pay check and hit the mall. I desperatly need khakis and other cloths for work...and I need going out shirts. How is it that I actually did go out in Otown, but I have no going out cloths? Weird huh? I guess it's cause the style here is a little ( Read more... )

I guess it's been a week or so since I've updated this thing. And stuff has happened I swear. I'm just too tired to get into it all right now. Basically last Friday I went to Stacey and Katie's w/ like 11 other GA's we hung out and played games, I eventually left there around 3:30....it really was a lot of fun, Ill give more detail if you ask.

Today was not a great day. To begin with I woke up 2 hours late....seriously 2 minutes before I was supposed to be at the stadium down town to sit in a lecture by one of our team doctors on the shoulder. I was so pissed. My alarm was still set and on to go off at 6 AM but I guess it just chose not to. So I freaked, jumped out of bed, ran around ( Read more... )

Today is Sunday. Today I got up around 9:45 and walked the dog. Then I took a shower, got dressed and went to church. Then the grocery store. And I've been wondering my apartment every since. Very exciting play by play huh? So today wasn't nearly as fun or interesting as last night, so lets rewind a bit and explore last night shenanigans ( Read more... )

Yes I know it's been a while since an update....I'm sorry. But if you were pulling 12-14 hour days you wouldn't be worrying about this journal either. Ok so it's not that bad...although my first and second day were 12 and 14 hours long. Yesterday was 10 and today was only 5. Funny thing is my contract says I'm supposed to work 20...but we ATCs ( Read more... )

So I found out my grandma is looking into the whole family going on a cruise the week after Christmas. So this is great, and I'm very into the idea...except for one thing. Rumor has it that I'm going to be working w/ the cheerleaders and equestrian team at USC. If this is the case then I'll probably have to travel w/ the football team. So, if ( Read more... )

Yep that's right YIKES!! So tonight I was driving through downtown Columbia leaving a friends place and I was singing along w/ the radio. Well I must have really spaced out cause suddenly I focused and realized I was in the middle of an intersection and my light was RED!!! Stone cold red...not like was yellow just turned red. But like RED, has ( Read more... )

Well as some of you have been reading I had high hopes of a friend of mine from Orlando joining me for my 2 years here in SC....well,that's no longer the case. My friend, which by the way I guess I can share now is Erin, has taken a job from UCF's former Head ATC at the University of Maryland. It's a 1 year internship deal, and I think it's great ( Read more... )
