In a few minutes I'm heading out to meet my hair stylist to fix this unruly hair of mine. I want to dye it dark brown, which is my natural hair color because the mid part of my hair is lighter than my roots since I didn't dye it & just let my hair grow. I graduate tomorrow so I don't want to do anything drastic because if I end up disliking it, I don't want to put myself in a position like that, especially since tomorrow is an important day. I desperately need a trim so I will ask Janie to trim my split ends. I don't wanna cut it short or anything, I wanna let it grow longer.
I wanted to get a pedi done also, but I can do it myself. I think I'm doing the French thing..so it will take me awhile.
Sid is in Austin right now..his friend is also graduating so he went to his friend's graduation party last night. He will be back probably this afternoon & he told me he wants to do something. I really miss him, it feels like I haven't seen him in over a week..which is probably the case since I was busy with finals.
Finals are officially over, btw. I can breathe a little easier now. I can't believe school is really over for me. Well, for now because I want to get my Master's, but I seriously need a huge break :)
Here's a pic of us on our 6 year anniversary weekend 3 weeks ago, chillin' at the bar. My flash was so bright it blinded him.
Finally I'm free from these horrible allergies! I even got pink eye to top it all off. It lasted for two days & today it completely healed thanks to my eyedrops that I think I paid too damn much for.
I should be studying but I have no motivation right now. I say I'm about halfway through my reading & thank God it is my last final. I don't know how some people have more, like my friend Melissa. We're both graduating this weekend! too bad I can't go to hers & she can't come to mine because they are a day apart & we live 400 miles from each other. I don't know how we keep our friendship so close, when moments like these I wished we could each share in them. I hate the distance, but at least we are in each other's lives.
I got a new job as a Marketing Associate for this company that owns my apartments, so that means you guessed it, discounted rent! YAY! I'm sad that since the drive is further than my previous job, & I'll be working full time, I won't be able to have a dog. I mean I could, but since I want a small one, I'm afraid to be gone so long during the day so that just wouldn't work. I wonder if the manager at my apts could transfer my lease so that I could live in the property I'll be working at..hmm. I start on Thursday! I've been wanting this job since forever! ever since I started apartment hunting when I first moved out, I knew that I could do what the leasing girl was doing. This job is meant for me! for now, because I plan on getting my emergency certification to become a teacher, however I'm not sure because you have to have a 2.5 gpa & although that is what my gpa is right now, this semester was super hard & I don't think it will make it. I heard you can take classes to increase your gpa so we'll see. Or maybe with this new company I can move up faster because I've heard nothing but good things from the management team.
The future seems really bright & I like feeling like the possibilities are endless.
This month is thee best ever! February seemed to last forever & it was a blur. The only highlight of that month was going to see Christina Aguilera in concert, which was bad ass!
I'm so happy with my life right now. I made peace with just biting my lip & going to Oklahoma with Sidney. Otherwise, what good is it gonna do if I tell him how I feel, he goes by himself & no celebration for our anniversary. I told my mom about it & she was the one that made me open my eyes. I'm happy that we don't live together, my boyfriend & I. I think if we did, it would only make things worse. We fight enough as it is sometimes, so we're good. I don't even want to think about marriage at all. I'm content with how things are, I really am.
Not only that is going well but I took my Spanish CLEP exam today & I passed it with flying colors! I needed to take it in order to get 14 hours of A's & that's what I ended up getting..so that I can graduate.
Then Time Warner called me back since I had an interview with them 2 months ago & they never called me back after I did my part to follow up. Their offer was lower than what I expected when I first went to the interview. Now they wanted me to set up another interview & I asked the lady if this was a SECOND interview, because c'mon we're wasting time here. She said they just wanna make sure that I'm interested. I wanted to tell her, DUH! I told you I am! but I decided to just not be in control & let it go. Little did I know ..about 15 min later this OTHER lady called asking me if I could come tomorrow instead to fill out paperwork & for them to run a background check. Haha. I guess what I told that other lady certainly worked. So we'll see what they can cook up as far as pay goes because I'm not leaving AAA (my current job) unless they pay the same or more. I'm Bilingual & that's one of the main skills I'll use at Time Warner..so they should pay me that much with no problem because I'm Bilingual.
Anyways, I need to get up early so I can take care of my business. Lata!
P.S. Shocker that I posted twice this week ;)
I wish my friends whom I invited into Vox would actually use it! Oh well..I'm over it.
Sidney seems to take forever just to get ready. He's worse than me! I called him over an hour ago & he said he had to get ready & he's still not here yet to come get me for dinner. My tummy is growling & I'm craving some Italian. I didn't run today because I thought by now we would be having dinner & although I should've woken up early to go run, my bed swallowed me whole ;) I can't deny that running these past few weeks have felt sooo good..I feel empowered. The first two weeks were a nightmare..elderly people would zoom past me..now I'm zooming past young guys :D haha. My time keeps improving & I'm excited. Even when my world seem to be crumbling last week, running somehow kept me sane. Almost feels that way the way I feel about cooking.
School is going, going, can't wait to be done next May. Work is so so ..I'm tired of the way managers manage & so I applied to go to a different department. I told my coworker & I think that was a mistake because she also applied too :/ There's only two available positions & I don't doubt I'll get it but I fear for my friend Susan who's also applying. I hope there's more than two available positions. We'll see what happens!
Anyways, it would be nice if my friends would come over Vox & comment but it's no big deal. This is my journal where I can divulge whichever way I feel like.
Random ..shows I'm watching this fall;
Prison Break, Nip/Tuck, Laguna Beach, Rachael Ray show on NBC, Grey's Anatomy, Six Degrees, Desperate Housewives & Brothers & Sisters. Geez!!! where will I find the time to keep up with these.. & let's not forget LOST premiering next Wednesday!!! that's 9 shows folks..& I think Big Love on HBO will also be on so that makes it 10 shows :O oohh yeah.
