Everybody's working for the weekend...

I am really looking forward to this weekend. I am going back to good ole' CF to party it up for Homecoming with my bEsTiEs on Friday night.  There should also be some celebratory partying to congratulate Jamfla on her acceptance to Mayo in AZ...♥ CoNgRaTs ♥   

Then Saturday and Sunday I get to spend time with my dad and go to a Tat Convention. No, I am not getting any more this weekend to clarify with everyone. I will be entering my huge side piece in some competitions to see if I can win a trophy or something!!

I am super excited to have a weekend to hang out, relax and have a good time. Maybe sHaGs on Friday?!?!?! Who knows.

This is my tat that I will be entering.  There has been more added to it, but this is the most recent pic that I had on my computer.  I think it could win....don't ya think?

October =)

Yay for October!! My Cubbies are in the playoffs and Halloween is just around the corner. What a wonderful month October is and what a wonderful season Fall is. =)

The City

I don't understand how DSM can be so big yet you run into people you know. Today I was walking the skywalk with my work friend and I ran into my old roomie's boyfriend. This is the same old roomie who would go through my room when I would go home for the weekend. That hasn't been the only time that she has crossed my path since I moved out. Her and her bf also live in the same town house complex as Beau's best friend. It is almost like me and my old roomie are meant to cross paths. Why?

Ooops

Sorry the link doesn't work anymore, NBC blocked it due to copyright infringement....It was Tina Fey impersonating Sarah Palin. I would YouTube it and see highlights.

Funny spin on Politics

This link is funny...I recommend you watch.

Never been a big fan....

I am not a fan of change...and by big fan, I mean I hate it. I get into my little comfort zone and never want to leave it. I have had major change issues through out my life. The first one that I can remember was right before leaving for college. The closer that my move away date came, the more I thought about taking a year off. The next major one was when I got my internship in California. I was super excited initially when I got it, but the more I thought about leaving my friends for the summer and living with people that I didn't know in a place I had never been, I started to think about trying to find an internship closer to home. Looking back at both of these incidents I know that I have made it through in one piece ready for my next adventure.

So, my next adventure is laying at my feet. I have moved away from Cedar Falls, gotten a new job and now reside with Trent and his parents. This is a major change to say the least. Today I moved most of my clothing down to Huxley and unpacked my room at the Quick homestead. I also drove down to Downtown so I have some clue of where I am going tomorrow. I think that all the stress from the move and new job got to me because I snapped at Trent on the drive because he was confusing me on what turns to take when. I didn't realize how many one-ways there were downtown. I have a feeling it might take a while to get my bearings.

I feel as though I am on the verge of a panic attack and have to keep telling myself to breath in and out on a regular basis. I have picked out my outfit for tomorrow, found my route to work and am now getting ready to pack a lunch. It is Pre-School all over again except with better clothes and hair. Or I guess it could also be compared to moving away and having to start a different school.

I miss my small apartment and my friends, but I know that this is a step in the right direction and it's only a matter of time before PoOf nIgHt V is in Des Moines! ♥ =)

Movin' on up

So, things have finally fallen into place. I accepted a position at Nationwide on Thursday and I couldn't be more excited. I am finally getting down to DSM like I wanted to. I am getting away from Hell aka Scheels and working in what I consider the 'real world'.

Accepting the position does come with mixed feelings. I am glad to get down there and start a new job, but not too thrilled to be moving in with Trent AND his parents. I hate not having my own space. I have my own room, but it is just not the same. It will be great to save money though, which is how I have to look at the situation.
I am excited to move near a city that has a lot going on but sad to be leaving my friend Jamfla. No more random Kohl's runs or trips to HyVee. No more nasally singing in the car or talking like a poof girl. I guess this is all apart of growing up.

Here's to starting a new chapter.
