My Group

Last night, I had a wonderful time at my friend Gerald's house with my closest group of friends. You've already met Becky (from the Shopping! post) but you haven't met Ryan and Gerald.

I've known Ryan as an aquaintance, not really a friend, literally since I was born. We're about two months apart (yes, I am his elder) and we both grew up in the church, but I don't really remember him that well. You see, he was always the smart kid in all of our classes. He did higher math when we were in first grade. Yeah. And I was in the group of kids who only lived for recess and reading time. So yeah, we never interracted or anything, up until when we were sixteen or seventeen, and I got to know him better because I got a phone, and we started texting, and became good buddies. Of course, that doesn't mean that I don't want to slap him around every now and then, but hey, it's the mark of true friendship. lol XP

Gerald, I really got to know in my senior year of high school. In a word: awesome. Gerald is just awesome. He's Ryan's best friend (they're dorming together) and he is also extremely smart, and hardworking, which isn't Ryan so much. I wish I could relate to you all of the hilarious conversations I've had with Gerald, from catapulting children to his imaginary girlfriend, Edna, but alas, it would take too long, and it wouldn't be as funny coming from me. >_>


This is all of us at Homecoming last year. Becky and I were not in it, but Ryan and Gerald were handsome escorts.
So yeah, there we all are. Ryan is the ginger next to me (I'm in the green dress), and Gerald is the tall one next to Becky. =)

College?

No, not that, anything but that!!! *breaks down and cries* I'm too young to die!
*ahem* Okay folks, maybe I'm not THAT dramatic about it really, but seriously, college? Already? When exactly did this whole growing up thing happen? I'm pretty sure I didn't agree to this...

I start college on Monday, and let me tell you, I am pretty nervous-ish. Why I say nervous-ish is because I rarely ever get really *nervous*. Sure, I'll be nervous to the point of twitching on Monday morning, but until then, well, I'm pretty good.

One of the main things that's making me nervous-ish (man, my spell check is hating me at the moment) is finding the places where my classes are. I'm going to a community college, and only two of my classes are at the same place. I think. I've never been to two of the places, I've never even heard of one of them, and I've been to the last one, but I don't know how to get there. *sigh* So, needless to say, I will be starting out on Monday QUITE early to allow for the inevitable event of my getting lost.

It's weird, because a year ago at this time, I wasn't even contemplating college. It was not even really an option. Then I went back to school after being homeschooled for several years, and, heh, Peer Pressure reared its head. Yep, I'm serious, that's the main reason I decided to go to college. Pretty pathetic, right? I'm only human though. *gasp* No! =O Yes yes, it's true. Don't get me wrong, I don't regret my decision *yet*, it's just weird how this all came about.

Okay, rest easy, I am done boring you for today. But I make no promises about tomorrow! >=)

Back to Work

Yep, that's right, sadly. It's not that I hate my job, I just miss the freedom I took for granted, freedom that my friends now unknowingly flaunt in front of me. Haha it's not that bad really, I mean, I get money, right? =D

I work at the office of my dad's company. I do bookkeeping, paperwork, filling, finances, all of that fun stuff. Well, I'm definitely not a real bid outdoorsy person, so it's actually a really good job for me. I'm the assistant to the office manager, Robert.

This is my desk:
Yeah, I'm really behind because of my two week excursion to Alaska, as you might be able to tell. Blech. But it's so good to be busy!

Even though I don't feel that way right at the moment...
Right now, all I want to do is nap. And as the company's owner's daughter, I can leave early. >=) Mwahahaha

There you have it, my boring and average job. Sorry guys, nothing exciting in the life of this girl today! =) Keep smiling!

Back from Alaska

Well hey guys, I'm back! I know, I know, you're asking, "Who are you?" Yeah, yeah, I'm sorry, I'm lame. I didn't have access to a computer while in Alaska, and well, posting from my phone is a pain, so I just didn't do it. Anyway, I just wanted to say that I am alive, and that I am back. I will be posting a couple of pictures soon, but right now, I'm catching up on all of my paperwork and stuff at my job. Urg. Just kill me now.
