I don't think I've ever been so excited for a three-day weekend in my entire life. Well, I'm sure that's not true, but I really can't remember the last time. Why am I so excited, you ask? Because after the Sabbath on Saturday and running errands/shopping/fantasy football draft on Sunday, I still have one whole day left to LAY AROUND AND DO ( Read more... )

Wow, it's hard to believe I've been at my job 5 weeks already! It's definitely keeping me busy and I'm learning SO much. Besides work stuff, I've also been trying to finalize our Feast housing and transportation plans, find an apartment, and take care of all the thousands of things you have to change when you move (addresses, drivers licence, car ( Read more... )

Finished my first week of work, and loving it so far. The people I work with are a lot of fun, the work is challenging and varied, and there are sweet perks (Braves tickets, manicures, lunches, etc.). Looking forward to really jumping into everything next week.

Hehe, I found this funny...surprised it's not more Midwestern, but then I travel a lot so I guess that makes sense. And who calls a shopping cart a buggy?! (except Georgians). Went out to a Japanese steakhouse for dinner to celebrate my new job. It was lovely, I'd never been to one before. Been shopping for new clothes for work and taking care ( Read more... )

I GOT A JOB!!! They formally offered me the position yesterday, and I'm so excited! I'll be an assistant media planner for an ad agency in Atlanta called Fitzgerald & Co. and I start on Monday. This is just such a weight off. I also got my ticket to the Feast in Hawaii yesterday, so one more thing I can check off. Now if only I knew where I ( Read more... )

...for all my Canadians out there. Wow, what a month. Danielle's wedding was beautiful, and I personally have never felt more beautiful in my life. Then I had two days before I had to leave for Pinecrest. It was my first time as head counselor, and it was a little rough. Some of my girls were really sweet, but some of them had major attitude ( Read more... )

Just thought I'd update real quick since I haven't in a long time. I'll fill in the rest later. After graduation I went to my parents' house and unpacked and put stuff away for like three days, bought a car, then headed to Kansas City for the young adults weekend. Had a blast, surprisingly, then hit the road for Cincinnati. Spent a week and a ( Read more... )

I can't believe that in a day I will move out of the place I have called home for four years. The wood floors, the piano, the constant lack of bowls and spoons, the ugly 7-foot orange couch in our room (which they took tonight and I already miss)...I can't believe it's over. I mean, I can believe it but I can't. In some ways I'm so ready to move ( Read more... )

I am officially done with college classes...as of 2:45 yesterday afternoon :) I have one final, first amendment law next Tuesday, but then I'm done! It would feel a little more exciting if I knew what I was doing for sure when I graduate, it doesn't seem real yet. I've been really stressed and cranky and mood-swingy lately just trying to get ( Read more... )

Oh man, so much happening lately and so many decisions to make that greatly affect my life. I wish I had time to enjoy my last couple weeks, but I'm so stressed out! Not much going on besides normal end of the year banquets and brunches and teas. I had my surgery Wednesday morning (after the whole fiasco Monday) and it went well. I also found ( Read more... )
