I wanted to apologize for being so ridiculously bad at posting. Just give me 3 months and I'll have internet (and cable...thank God) and then will be able to give you minute by minute updates on my life....Excited? :)
In the mean time here is a quick run down on what I've been up to the past couple of months. Don't get excited....the majority it rather boring.
WORK
1. I'm still at CFA and Bath and Body Works. I never thought I'd say that I like CFA, but it's actually been good to me recently! I got a raise, yay! It's amazing the things that happen when you actually try at work. hehe.
2. I've still been keeping an eye out for design jobs, no luck though. USA Today recently published an article that showed LA jobs on the rise for the first time in 9 months. I'm giving it another 6 months before I flood the market. In the mean time, I'm also looking for openings in anything that I think I'd like. Including florists, wedding planning, and CFA corporate. We'll see if I have any better luck if I expand my search...
SCHOOL
1. Lately I've given a fair amount of thought into returning to school, especially since I m right here in this college town. Not sure what I'd go back for, which is probably a problem. Right now I've considered horticulture, ecology, or conservation ecology. I've also given thought into becoming a nurse. I know that this can be hard work, but I'm up for it! Maybe it's been the experience at CFA, but I really feel that I'm becoming more and more of a people person! I think that if I found the right section, nursing would be a good choice. Anyone know more about this?
LIFE
Well, just like a few months ago, life is basically perfect, which I blame on Brian. Now if I could just figure out this money situation...
But seriously, let me see...what's been going on in my life?
1. Well, my roommate moved out two months early. I'm really excited that I get to have the house to myself! I can actually clean it and it will stay clean now. Oh, and I can buy things for myself and use it myself, not have it disappear and wonder where it went. Although I'm excited that my living situation is finally better and stress free, I can't help but be pissed off about the situation. Our landlord is not making me cover her rent for the last two months, thanks God, but he's not holding her accountable for her share either!!! I just don't understand how some people get off so easy all the time. UGH, why is life NEVER fair?!?! I could really go into a HUGE rant about this....but I'll save it for another time.
2. Brian and I are moving into OUR new house soon! He says that we can start painting and moving in July, even though the lease doesn't start until August. This would be great because it will make the process that much stress free! I'll post the process, don't worry.
3. Brian and I just returned from Chicago for his brother's wedding. The trip was amazing! Everyone was sooo friendly and fun! Not to mention that I didn't have to pay for anything...not plane tickets, not marta, no subway, no hotel, no food, no drinks...NOTHING. Awesome! :)
It really was amazing though. I am lucky to have been able to be invited and share the moment.
4. I turned 24...yuck. Someone give me a walker and pair of house slippers now.
5. I've actually started drinking wine! Kirsty, I know you'll be proud! I really enjoy it and am glad that I finally got over the sweet mixed drinks only phase that I went through for 6 years.
Well, that's about all the noteworthy things that I have to talk about right now...I'm sure my life will pick up one day...maybe. Oh, did I mention that Brian has recently talked about engagement?! I mean, serious talk...not the joking around and teasing that he usually does. I guess the whole trip to Chicago opened his eyes. I told him that I'll believe it when I see it...hehe.

Yay!! I needed you to fill my addiction for stalking people! Sounds like things are going well :) Good luck with all of it!
ReplyDeleteps - did you leave your own little glass of rotten soy milk in the fridge for old time's sake?
Thank you for posting! I feel so out of the loop on your perfect little life you got going on. By the way-- I have started drinking wine too! I had no choice-- Nick said we couldn't afford liquor drinks everytime we went out anymore-- and I refused to go for beer. I only drink certain wines though haha! Love and Miss-- see you tomorrow?
