the other night eric told me he got my birthday present but wouldn't tell me what it was. the clues were a) i had to go to maryland b) it would benefit us both c) it would be the best present ever
and so yesterday he called and said "i have to tell you what it is because well, you need to know" i was like "ok what is it?" he's like "well, what have you been wanting to do allll summer?"
and then i realized what it was....
he's taking me to DISNEY WORLD for my birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
oh my god he is amazinggg. he bought the airline tickets and booked hotel reservations and theme park tickets. !!!!
i'm still in shock because this is definitely the best present *ever*. sorry i am just so freakin' excited.
so i'm going july 30 til aug 2...4 days 3 nights. which will be wonderful.
disney here i come!! :) |

what an amazing long weekend!! however it is nice to come back to work because i definitely need the money...i've been spending so much lately that i might consider finding a second job but that just seems so difficult since i work til 5 and don't really wanna give up my weekends. but we'll see. or else i just need to really force myself into spending money...aka no shopping and no going out (i'm not sure how i'll accomplish either) :o(
but anyway.
weekend...
friday night i hung out with erin which was nice since she definitely ditched me for summer classes at rutgers (!!). we saw devil wears prada which was adorableee. i don't care how much of a chick flick it was...i absolutely loved it. and afterwards we went to the diner for breakfast. i must say that diner food might be the best ever...not only are the prices pretty cheap but the portions are magnificent. i got a side order of corned beef hash which came on the biggest, most unncessary plate ever but i wasn't complaining!
saturday was gabby's birthday so at night i went over there and we had ourselves a little party...complete with hawaiian lei's and a balloon that would not stop hitting me in the face while i was driving to her house. i almost got into 3 accidents with that damn balloon. but the dogs with the party hats on both sides made it all worth it!!
anyway, that was a fun night and no hungovers were had so that's always good times.
sunday morning i woke up at the crack of dawn and sam and i headed down to long beach island. we were both exhausted so we basically passed out on the beach for 6 hours...i loved it. and to top things off we saw a whale!! it was pretty far away but OH it was there. well, honestly i couldn't really see it but everyone else could...people kept pointing in different directions which did not help!! it's alright though. i know what they look like.
monday i spent the day with gabriella again and after going to garden state plaza we headed down to the stone pony in asbury park to see 30 seconds to mars! first of all, asbury park is prettty damn ghetto but after going to newark a couple times i'd like to think i'd be pretty tough on the streets. but anyway, we got there around 6:30 and the opening acts went on til freakin 10:30, which definitely pissed me off cuz my feet were killing me and people were being obnoxious, but 30 seconds to mars was amazinggg so it was all worth it. the lead singer is jared leto who was in a bunch of movies...my god he is gorgeous. and by golly does he have a voice! download "the kill" if you can...i didn't know jared had it in him...
and that basically concluded the weekend. i love how i had plans every day this weekend *except* the 4th of july haha. the weather sucked big time anyway.
and now, back to work bitches!! i posted a bunch of pix from this weekend on facebook if you care to see :o) |

spring break!
my parents picked me up on friday and on the way home we went to jackson outlets, where i definitely got a shirt and polo in the kid's section of the polo factory store! lol it's great. they're cheap and they fit! oh i love the shopping
then later that night i went to the movies with my sister to see (don't laugh, please) she's the man...and i hate to admit it, but it was GREAT. hilarious. google the lead actor (channing tatum) because he is HOT. mmmm. he definitely made the movie all the better.
hung out with a couple people too, and will hopefully visit some people at their colleges this week since no one has the same break as me !! (sweet)
ah crap i can't believe there's less than 2 months left of school...scary to think that i'll be a junior next year. slow downnnn, college. but i can't wait til next semester...i'm pretty sure mel, kel, carla (hopefully!), and i will get a suite...let the good times rolll

Crap I haven't updated in awhile.
Tuesday is the last day of classes! Another semester gone by...I really can't believe how fast this one went by. All in all it was a great semester; hopefully next semester will be just as good if not better...
This weekend was fun.
Thursday night, Melissa, Kelly, Lauren, and I went to the Field Hockey party on Knox which was good times. We went into the wrong house at first and walked into a living room where these guys were chillin, watchin TV...we're like "oh I think we're in the wrong place, sorry.." Haha it was funny. The party itself was a lot of fun...I love girls' nights :)
And then Friday night, went to a party far far away with Eric and Drew...it was fun as well, but walking in heels through snow and ice? Not so lovely. Luckily I didn't fall, that would have suuucked. And who beat Eric one-on-one in beer pong, twice? Oh that'd be me. It was nice to show him up for once...but then he beat me twice in NHL '95 on Sega. It's not my fault that for most of the time I didn't really even know how to play or what was going on....my only specialities on Sega are Sonic and the Lion King...
This year, for some reason, I'm not really into that Christmas mood. I haven't even started shopping which might be a bad thing, but I'll get the job done. Man, a month of no school...sounds delicious. And for three of those weeks I will be working at PurchasingNet again, which will be pretty sweet.
But now, off to the basketball game against Boston College! Oh boy they are good...I hope we win!! And yay for Terps being the NCAA Soccer Champs byotchhhh... |

Yesterday was 6 months for Eric and me :o) I really can't believe it's been so long already...I've completely fallen head over heels for this boy and I never thought I could feel this way.
Last night we went to dinner in DC to celebrate. After trying on a million outfits, I went to his place so we could walk to the Metro, and he opens the door wearing a dress shirt, tie, suit jacket...it was freakin' adorable...he's so handsome! Swoon. Hehe. And he gave me such a cute card too.
So we got to DC and went to the Bombay Club, which is this really nice Indian restaurant (thanks to Teddy for letting me know about it! hehe) that has the most romantic atmosphere. We haven't been on a date in awhile, and the dinner was just so nice. There were times that we would just look at each from our sides of the table and smile...just a silent reminder that we're cwazy about each other. He would just look at me and say, "You're beautiful." Ah I died. That restaurant is too romantic. Hehe. The food itself was deliciousss and our waitor was the cutest guy ever. At the end he was like "Such young guests as yourself...thank you for having such nice manners...come back anytime!" Haha. What a clown. Loved him.
So afterwards I went to a costume party at Mike's with Melissa, Kelly, Lauren, Rob, Scott...so much fun! But now I have the sniffles cuz my costume was not that warm. I dressed as an angel (I guess it was a Vicky's Secret angel since everyone called it that lol), and had on a white tank top with a short white skirt. Not the best combination for 40 degree weather I suppose...
The party was soo much fun, I freakin' love those boys...Mike, Ben, Danny...so nice! The jungle juice was scrumptious as well, haha.
Alrighty, my family is on their way, and we're going to Tysons for shopping of course...smell ya later! |

Sorry for the lack of updates...
UMMM so yea I went home two weeks ago which was pretty chill...I chilled with Gabby and Sam that Saturday, which was pretty hot. Gabby and I did our usual B&N coffee routine then shopped a little...and then I picked up Sam for some shopping and Into the Blue action. The movie was pretty good, mostly because Paul Walker is ridiculously hot. Phew. The next day I got my shopping fix on and bought some jeans, clothes, whatnot...
I like being home but I realized that it's definitely not the same as being here. Home feels like a whole other world to me sometimes, and come winter break, I know I won't want to go back. Mostly because I know I'll miss Eric too much. Maybe I should cut down on the time I see him now just so I won't miss him too much over breaks...but it's so hard. Hopefully I will be able to go down to see him for New Year's...but then again that is months away, so no need in worrying about it now.
Last night Melissa and I went to Eric's and played some intense games of beer pong...I'm definitely trying to hang out with Melissa and the twins more because I do not want to see myself spending all my time with Eric and neglecting my friends. I still hang out with friends a lot, but it's hard for me to make that balance sometimes. But I know I should make that balance because my friends are so so important to me. And after all, Melissa is my Cosmo reading buddy! :o) And my Full House buddy...and Dora the Explorer...and abs class...haha.
And oh, I got a 100 on my crop science lab exam! Yayyy that makes my day. And I have over a 100 in Accounting II. Life is beautiful.
So to end this entry, just wanted to show you a picture real quick...
click me!
Melissa took that candid of us...Eric's playing a video game and I'm pretending to care, lol. But it's so cute...I love that boy so much haha :) |

This semester has been so kickass it's not even funny. I was mainly concerned with being able to keep up my grades, considering I'm with Eric 24/7, but in a way I think he's helped me do better in school? Haha so strange...
This week was cuhrazzzy. Solar system test Tuesday, which was all good. Gotta love open-book, open-note tests that have questions you were given beforehand... :) And Wednesday I had my Accounting II exam...96 baby! Soo hot, since I got like all 60's or 70's on the exams in Accounting I. I heart my teacher. I heart my Crop Science teacher more though...the man is a carbon copy of Barney Rubble!
So today was 5 months for me and Eric :) And it was the first time we've spent an 'anniversary' together...he makes me happy.
But hmmm...he's going to Cancun tomorrow until Monday night. Crazy, I know. He's going because his job pays for the best managers to go as a reward for all the work they did. All expenses paid...flight, hotels, everything. I just really hope I can trust him! Haha I do, but it must be insanely hard to not even get a little tempted in Cancun...here's to hoping there's no girls there...at all...
And so I'm coming home this weekend for the first time in 5 weeks which will be cool, I guess? I just really need to get my shop on because I've been pretty deprived. And I also need to pick up the new Cosmo since College Park decides that no store will carry the magazine...roarrrrrrr.
I definitely just took a 3 hour nap but I think it's time for round 2. So sleepy I am! |

Woah I've been in the best of moods lately, and it's hard to pinpoint a reason, but I definitely feel like this is the true college experience I've always pictured. I have amazing friends, a boyfriend I love so much, and this year I've just been having so much fun...it's so wild.
This past week, I've spent almost all my time with Eric, eek! A little excessive, I know. But I can't stand to be away from him, even for a little bit. I think I've fallen a lot harder than I imagined I would...but it's the greatest feeling...
Last night was craaazy fun...Kelly and I went to Knox Towers for a pre-drink at Allen's apartment (we met Allen like, two hours before...and wow is he hotttt). His place is such the shit. All the roommates work for Abercrombie, and they have posters all over the apartment, a stripper pole in the middle of the living room...which I just find to be hilarious. Their bar is sick too...holy shiz I'm definitely going back.
And then afterwards we all went to Cornerstone bar, which is definitely better than Bentley's I think, in terms of music and such. But then again it's a lot easier to get into Bentley's, holla. I'm definitely amazed we all got into Cornerstone. I feel guilty though when I dance with other guys because Eric wasn't here (he went home)...I mean, it's just dancing, which is harmless? But I also flirt with other guys, but that's harmless too I guess. I told Eric about it, and he says he doesn't care, since he probably flirts with other girls too...as much as I wish he wouldn't. But it's all good. Besides, the Cosmo article "50 Love Lessons from Real Chicks" says that you should "flirt like crazy, even if you're attached, because the male attention is good for you ego." Hahaa I love it...
This weekend looks veryyy promising...big party at Mike's tomorrow night and hopefully I can do so some shopping because...well, I never really need a reason. Ugh, I do have homework though. But that's what Sunday's all about.
I think I will be home next weekend so give me a ring if you wanna chill :o) |

This is an update!
This first week of college has been amazing...it's basically been all that I could have asked for and more...seeing good friends and having a great time...
I think the best part is that the moment we came back, Melissa, Lauren, Kelly, and I became closer that we have before. Melissa and I didn't really hang out too much last semester but we've just become really close lately, which is hotness. I'm always down the hall in Melissa and Lauren's room...I might as well be the third roommate. And it was so nice to see everyone else...I missed Sandy and Carla oh so much this summer...
I've gone out almost everyday since we've gotten back, oh man. Last Monday we went to a Chi Phi party, which was probably the best pary I've been to in awhile...we met these two boys there that followed us the entire night and now we see them EVERYWHERE. We went to another Chi Phi party Friday night and saw them there...then Melissa saw them at the Maryland-Navy game. Wild times.
Last Wednesday I saw Eric for the first time in 5 weeks :o) He gave moi a necklace for my birthday...it has a green jewel on it -- so pretty! That night we all went over to his dorm and played some good ole beer pong. And come to think of it we've spent almost all of the last 5 days together...god I am getting sick of him. Jk, :P
And classes seem pretty easy...I just hope I don't take my light semester for granted and slack off. Cuz that would suckkk.
It's been a great start to the school year, and hopefully it will get even better :)

Andrew McMahon (lead singer) of Something Corporate just made a new CD - Jack's Mannequin. And holy shit is it good! I got it the other day, and it's just great. Love him.
On another note, 3 more days til College Park!! I'm almost done with packing, surprisingly, just gotta buy a few more things.
Thanks to everyone who wished me a happy birthday...twas greatly appreciated :)
Anyway, I guess the next couple of days I'm just gonna try and see as many people as I can...
Today Jenny is taking me to the spa! I'm getting a manicure and side-swept bangs...I hope they come out ok...eek! But if not, I'll just go back to my regular hairstyle. And afterwards, chilling with Donna. Then seeing Erin (hopefully) before that ho leaves tomorrow...
Tomorrow, will see Sam at night...and then Gabby is coming back for the weekend! That bitch got to see Andy Roddick at Macy's the other day...so jealous :( But he better get farther than Federer in the US Open...or else I'll lose $15 to Eric, and that simply cannot happen.
I'm almost done watching my Laguna Beach, Season 1 on DVD! So hot...and I'm so sad for loving that show...

This week has been hot. On Tuesday, I went to Redheads with Jon Borja and Dave Shi and played about 4 or 5 games of Cutthroat pool. Only won 1, but I was damn close in the other games. And while we were there we ran into Pete Shipton! Haven't seen that kid in forever, it was awesome. And by the way, Dave Shi is an evil pool player. I've never seen the kid talk so much smack. It was classic.
Yesterday: Chilled with Donna after work...we hit up Blockbuster and then Coldstone (they ran out of cake batter...what the eff), where I settled for Founder's Favorite! I don't even know what that is! But it was delish.
And today, I might chill with Erin and her friends for a night of drunkenness and wreaking havoc in a club, but we shall see. :P I keep forgetting that I still have to wake up for work tomorrow...rawrrrrrr.
And Gabby comes back from Europe tomorrow night!! Oh boy, we both need to brainstorm to think of some way to get Jasmine to talk to us and hopefully forgive us...it's looking damn hopeless, but it never hurts to try, hmm? |

Less than 3 weeks left til school! Holy shit that is wild...can't freakin wait.
So this weekend has been good...
On Saturday, went to Woodbury Common Outlets with Sam and Kevin. Oh man, we were there from like 1-9. That is an insane amount of time to be shopping. Didn't buy too much...just got a shirt from Polo Ralph Lauren and three tops from Benetton, all for $30. Holler. Then I came home and talked to my baby til like 1 in the morning...
Yesterday: Hung around here, then went out to Houlihan's with Sara! We ordered SHROOMS OF COURSE and had lots of hilarious girl talk that was later continued at Starbucks. Good times.
Ugh, dilemma. I don't think my parents are really comfortable with Eric coming up and staying here, so I either have to like plan a trip to NYC, meet him there and book a hotel room for a night...which if my parents found out I did, by the way, I would be in deep shit...
Or else I could just wait until school starts to see him. I know it's not a long time, but I miss him like crazy. And on the one hand I just want to lie to my parents and see him, but another part of me would feel extremely guilty for doing so.
Maybe I can just ask my parents again if they would have a problem with him coming up...ahh I don't know. Too much thinking involved. 'Cuz I know they would just rather me not bring it up at all...
BACK TO WORK! Later, kids. |

| Monogamy... |
[Aug. 5th, 2005|03:39 pm] |
| [ | mood |
| | sleepy | ] |
So I read this article about Kate Hudson and her opinion on monogamy: http://movies.msn.com/movies/article.aspx?news=198050.
Basically, she's saying that couples have the power to be faithful, but monogamy isn't realistic. She said that if her husband felt he had to go out and cheat on her, then it's basically ok, as long as she doesn't find out and everything is still well in the household.
Personally, I was like woah when I read that because I definitely disagree with her on that. If Eric cheated on me, I would want to know like STAT because I would break up with him in an instant. There's no way I'd rather just keep guessing.
It's just funny that I read this article now because I know he went to the bar on Tuesday, and I don't care because it's not like I can stop him or he can stop me from going out to the clubs/bars either. But sometimes I just wonder who he's talking to and what happens when he goes to the bar...does he hit on other girls? Does he dance with them? But even if he does, I still trust him. I just get jealous too easily, I think...
and UGH, I HATE it when he talks about celebrity girls or supermodels or whatever (I'm sure Sandy will agree...). So in return I like to swoon over his friend Alexi..and Andy Roddick too, of course. :P
But then again if I went to a club, I'd still dance and flirt with guys. And I'm pretty sure Eric wouldn't really care either, lol. Hopefully it's not wrong of me to do that though...it's harmless!
Ohh boy I miss him...
One more hour of work, then OUT! |

My friend Eric's 11-year-cousin died on Sunday at a waterpark. He has had heart problems his entire life and has been mostly sheltered in his house because of this. But on Sunday, he went to a waterpark with a friend and their family. And while walking up the stairs to a ride, he collapsed.
He was rushed to the hospital but there was nothing they could do...
He was 11. Just a little boy. He never had the chance to experience life. I remember him being so energetic and lively, always making everyone laugh. One day he's here, the next day he's gone and taken away from his family and friends. I don't know what more else there is to say. I talked to Eric today, and everyone in his family is just a wreck...
There are so many murderers, criminals out there...and for a young boy to die makes me so angry. Why do the good die so young?
My prayers go out to his family. We will miss you, Kevin.

So I hadn't planned on going down to Maryland last week because my parents just would not let me, but they did a complete 180 on me and just let me go.
I had such an amazing time...the trip goes as follows:
Friday: After Kelly was lost for forever trying to find the bus station, she eventually found it and picked me up around 2 or so. And so we drove up to her house (booondocks, but so cute!). We went to her grandma's pool with her cousin and sister, which was soo nice and relaxing. And then we hung out with Lauren, Vogtle, Rob, and their friend Scott. Jumped on the trampoline like it was our job, got a million bug bites, living the life. It was so summer. I love the twins to death...can't wait to see them again this fall! :)
Then Eric picked me up at their house, and I spent Saturday-Tuesday at his house. It was soo nice to see him.
To be honest, I was really concerned about our relationship because if I hadn't have come down, the distance and time we would have spent apart until school started would have been too much. And I just didn't know if he was right for me, if I deserved better, blah blah.
But after talking with him about everything, I felt so much better. And I realized how much it would hurt both of us if we were to break up. Oh man, I even cried when were talking about it. It was the most intense conversation we've ever had...so emotional. But it made me see how serious this relationship is to him...
And he just said the most reassuring things to me. I absolutely melted when he said, "Honestly...you are the best thing that's ever happened to me. I don't even know if I could break up with you...it would hurt too much." I just built so much faith in our relationship this weekend, and I want to make this work. I'm not letting go just yet.
I had an amazing time...on Saturday, we hung out during the day (beat him at poker once again, holler) and then played some crazy beirut that night with his friend Alexi and Eric's brother Andy. And let me just say, Alexi is...wow. I think I may have developed a monster crush on him! Haha. So hot, funny, sweet, goes to Harvard...Eric definitely picked up on it and was like "Someone has a crushhhh." :P
And btw, I am so good at beirut. I was making those cups like none other. So professional.
On Sunday, we went up to his grandmother's farm in Westminster, which was just so chill. Met more of his family and had a great dinner made by his grandma, who is the cutest woman ever.
Monday: Basically stayed in watching TV and ordering in Chinese, and then at night we went to see Wedding Crashers, which was freakin' hilarious ("I'm a little tired from last night...midnight rape, gay art show.."). I'm definitely seeing it again...
And now I have the rest of the week off. Ahh, lovin' summer... |

Chillin' at work now, as usual.
Let's see what's been going on...
On Sunday, Erin and I went to Woodbridge Mall! Tons of fun, I love hanging out with that girl. We sang along to my idol on the way there - Kelly Clarkson, oh yes. We spent about 5 or 6 hours in the mall but only went to about 5 stores, holller. We like to take our fine little time. And SO I ended up buying a magenta top for clubbing purposes and such, cropped Guess hoodie, white short-sleeved shrug, and Erin bought me a Hollister skirt as an early birthday gift! :) Saweet. & it's just good to be able to tell her everything, maybe because she knows where I'm coming from. But she's an awesome friend -- thanks for all the advice!
Monday: Bummed around until I hung out with the Gabster. We went to see Fantastic Four, which was pretty good. The best part was definitely Chris Evans. Holy jesus he is hot. Phew. And afterwards, we went to Barnes & Noble and chilled with Mocha Frap's and bad tabloid magazines. We decided to hit up Target afterwards, which is the best. Gotta get some dorm stuff there, granted Carla is STILL MY ROOMMATE (Carla, you can't bail on me!).
In hanging out with Gabby and talking with her about this whole Jasmine situation, I think I've come to accept that Jasmine is serious about giving up this friendship. I'm not going to try anymore because at this point, my effort is worthless. And if she doesn't understand how fuckin' ridiculous this situation has been from the beginning, then whatever. Maybe one day you'll see that you never had a good reason to completely cut me off from your life. And let me just say that if you had done what I did, I would not have so much as accused you of being the least bit wrong. It's my life; nothing affected you. Of course I would love to be friends with you again, but the summer is over in a month. You are going to college in NYC, me in Maryland. We live next door to each other now and we don't even talk, so it'll only get worse. It's just a crying shame that you can throw away 15 years of friendship so easily.
Drama, drama, drama.
Anyways...
Last night, I chilled with Katya at the hottest spot of all - Dunkin' Donuts. Haha, it was great. We were there from 10:30 to about 12:30, just catching up on guys, school, the usual.
My parents neeeed to let me to go to Maryland this Friday. I think they will, but they're just being stupid right now. Mmmm can't wait to see my favorite twins ever and of course the boy! |

I had such a great 4th of July weekend, :o)
Eric came up Friday night and left Tuesday morning...
Saturday: We both woke up around 2, which was amazing, considering the fact that I haven't slept that late in weeks. Around 4 or so, we went fishing with my dad and sister at Sandy Hook. I didn't even bother trying to fish cuz I knew I'd suck at it, but Eric tried...couldn't really cast, but you know how it is.
At night, we met up with Jenny and her friends at Seaside Heights, who rented a suite and a double for the entire weekend. Yeaa, some festivities went on there. They all went clubbing, but Eric and I decided to walk to boardwalk. I was a wee bit buzzed, but Eric was pretty much gone. Oh man it was good times though. We slept on the floor because JENNY would not share her bed. So greedy she is.
We left the next day around 3 or so, then came home to watch my recorded Wimbledon...only to see Andy's sad sad loss against Federer. Can't win em all.
Later that night, Eric took me out to dinner at a Japanese-Thai restaurant. It was so romantic! The food was so good, and it's better when it's free, :P He owed me the dinner anyway since I beat his ass in poker last time...
Monday: SIX FLAGS! Eric, my sister, her friend, and I went to Six Flags and holy crap it was fun. We did the Fastlane business and rode Nitro twice, Superman, Chiller twice, Batman, Congo Rapids, and the greatest one of all...Daredevil Dive! Basically, they strap you and a partner together and raise you in the air about 150(?) feet. One of you then has to pull on a bungee cord, and then you just go flying. What a rush.
The entire weekend was simply amazing. I am, of course, a hopeless romantic, and in my head I had always imagined these ideal, perfect scenarios with a boyfriend. And with Eric, they've all happened - walking the beach late at night, hand in hand. Strolling across the boardwalk during the summer. Going to Six Flags and making him win a stuffed animal prize for me, hehe. Candlelit dinners. His arms around me as we watch fireworks...
Everything has been perfect thus far. Sometimes I wonder though...how long will our relationship last? I know it's not a good idea to think about this, but I can't help but wonder. I do have some doubts in my mind, but hopefully that's normal. Because I know I love him. I'm just gonna go with the flow - I mean, what else is there to do? |

Spent the weekend in Baltimore again...my second home, basically. :P
Last Thursday I had this crazy allergy attack from who knows what, so I took half a day off of work and went to work Friday. Soooo, Friday night I took the bus from Newark to Baltimore and didn't get there til 12AM or so.
Eric picked me up, and god it was soo good to just see him. He shaved off his facial hair...so freakin' adorable! He taught me how to drive stick, and it wasn't too bad. I still prefer automatic. We went to his old high school and drove for a bit. Stalled a bunch of times...but you know how it is.
And the rest of the weekend we just chilled and hung out...went to see Batman Begins, which was good but just a tad long.
I'm going to be really girly right now, but this weekend, for some reason, my love grew so much stronger for him. It is absolutely the best feeling in the world, and I just never really thought anything like this would happen. When he catches me off guard by saying "I love you," I completely melt. He is such a great guy, and just the thought of him gets me through the day. But I still miss him insanely...
Work has been going along very nicely. I don't really do much, to be honest. I could get away with going on AIM all day, and they really would not care. But I like to pretend I'm doing something, just to make myself look useful.
Got my paycheck for the first week...a little under $300. Gotta love working full-time.
Until next time, kids! |

Summer has been amazing thus far. And there's still plenty left to go around!
First things first - I have a job! I'm going to be a receptionist for a software company in Red Bank until July 15 (I'm a temp..), but it's full-time though (Mon-Fri 9-5), which will suck cuz it hinders my travelling to Maryland..lol. But Eric will come up here in the next 2 weeks or so, then I'll go down there 2 weeks later and whatnot. Hmm, and the job is $10/hr, which is beautiful.
This week, I...
> Went to see Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants (yes, again) with Sammieeee
> Chilled with Erin
> Lunched and shopped with Donna
> Freehold Mall'ed it up with Gabby
Gabby is about to come over so we can finish "The Cut" from last night, then off to the movies again!
Later, kids. |
