O my goodness! It's finally Friday!
What an eventful day. I just got back from having lunch with one of my life long friends, Elizabeth. We met in a ballet class when we were 2, danced all through high school together, graduated together, etc. She is now studying history at Princeton while I'm working on becoming a stellar teacher at Baylor. Hands down, she is one of the most hilarious people I know. I do believe she is going to be the next star on SNL. Watch out for her.
In a few days, I'm going to be moving back down to good ole Waco. I can't wait! I have loved the time that I have spent at home for the last three weeks. It has been very adventurous. I've gotten the chance to see lots of people that I needed to catch up with. I've also been busy with the Pam life and the J Crew rockstar life. So fun. Many stories entailed...

burnt, red, and sore
I look like a lobster, but only on my shoulders and chest.
This weekend, I went wake boarding on lake Lewisville with Kelsey and her family. It was a sight to see. I strapped on the wake board, threw on a life vest, jumped into the lake and hung on to the rope for dear life while Doug held me in the water and tried to push me above it. Out of ten tries, I skimmed the water once. The other 9 consisted of me flying face forward onto the water. It was blast to say the least. I plan on being to ride some small waves by the end of the summer. Maybe even hang some air, I don't know. Endless possibilities.
It's Tuesday at the Title Company. I've had to make a few phones calls to people verifying their home address in order to send them basic information about the house that they plan on buying. One woman was a snotface when I called her. I told her why I was calling and she proceeds to tell me that they have decided not to buy the house and just slammed down the receiver. Rude.

I did it
I did it.
I joined the group of blogging. My lofties are into it so I decided to join.
Before I write anything, I'm going to apologize in advance for any random thoughts that come falling out of my head. It's just the way it goes.
It's summertime. I really love it. So far, it's been filled with new adventures, experiences and challenges. I'm working two jobs. (crazy, I know). I'm an escrow assistant at Capital Tile Willowbend during the week days. I build title policies to be sent out to relators, print up recording receipts to be released, file papers, send things to the vault, call home owners to verify information, etc. In a sense, the office that I am working out reminds me of the infamous show starring Steve Carell. Except no Jim's (tear), Toby's, Stanley's, or Kevin's. It's just an office filled with Phyllis's, Angela's and me (Pam). It's still entertaining though. On Friday, the microwave broke in the kitchen and all of the middle aged woman started freaking out about how to cook their lean cuisine lunches because everyone swears to be on a diet. And here I am with a candy stash in my drawer. haha. good times.
My second source of income is J Crew. It's so fabulous. I'm at the Northpark location so it's always filled with Dallas woman on a hunt for cashmere cardigans and sundresses. The cliental at J Crew is very diverse from CT. I work with men and woman in their 20's. Everyone is always decked out in J Crew wear which is so fun. The boys wear skinny ties, vests and buttons (love) and the girls wear sundresses. So far, in the last two days I have worked, I have pooled in $2,900 in mechandize. Not too shabby for the first few days of work, eh?
I've also made a list of goals that I want to accomplish this summer as well. First and foremost, I've decided to read more. I have a collection of books that I skimmed for one of my classes last semester dealing with the Social Issues found in education. Now, with the extra time (besides working) I want to read them all. Also, I want to learn how to play acoustic guitar. Learn a few chords. So then I could be "that teacher" that ties into music on her guitar into her lesson plans. totally rad.
