Apparently...

I need to go back to drivers ed and learn how to parallel park.

I attempted to do it the other day and conviniently smashed the front end of a really nice, brand new Infinity. I left a note (like a good, moral person should) and found out it was a guy I work with at this new job, even worse. I decided to pay out of pocket for the expenses and it is going to be around $1200...plus $60/day for a rental car for him, AND it will take EIGHT flippin days to fix!!! Ugh, how could it take EIGHT days to fix a dang dent??? (well its a pretty deep dent, but still!). Lovely. The whole reason I got this summer job was to pay off my existing debt, not to create more! The worst part about it...the reason I was there the morning I hit his car was for a class that ended up being cancelled!!! I wish someone would have called me to let me know, I wouldnt be in this stupid mess!!

And the frosting on the cupcake (I like cupcakes better than cake), I got a parking ticket today because I didnt think I needed a new parking pass for summer session. I am just a genious huh?

Needless to say, I am not buying a lotto ticket today!

I <3 this girl


Ok so I admit, this is not the most flattering picture of myself, in fact its really quite horrible, but this picture really captures the relationship me and my sister have...I just wished we didnt live so far apart and were able to be together more often. In all her crazy, loud, hilarious, randomness...I just love this girl.

Its getting hot in here....


Dang it was like 100 yesterday I think!! Today it has cooled some and we are heading to the BEACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :o) I feel like I havent been to the beach in forever and Michael and I want to take advantage of it before we move away from it all when we go to Arizona. We are going to Ventura, our favorite place next to Santa Monica, and renting bikes to ride around for the day and having lunch on this pier. I cant wait! :o)

A few random things going on with me...

*School is over for the semester as of MONDAY and I cant wait! Aside from a 6 week class I am taking in the summer, I am so stoked to have some 'me' time and not dedicating all my time to others.

*I won another scholarship, $1000 and I get it in a couple of weeks, yippie for putting it towards my credit card bill!!!

*I started a new job and am no longer babysitting. I am working in the ICU at the hospital as a monitor tech and unit secretary, just in 1 day I have seen so much and I am so excited about it. They are also floating me to the ER which will be exciting too!

*We decided to push the house buying date to July, that way it will be done around January/March and I dont have to worry about having an offer letter before I even finish nursing school

*Michael is in the managment training program at Claim Jumper restaraunt and I couldnt be happier for him, he loves it and is such a hard worker! I owe him so much for all he has done for me since being in school, really you have no idea, its crazy!

*Michaels step dad is having surgery on the 18th of this month for his back, if you could just say a little prayer for him, he is really nervous about it! (boys are such babies at times!)

Thats all for now! Off to the beach :o)

awwwwwwwww


Erins wedding :o)
quickie house update: so they didnt accept our offer, but after thinking about it long and hard, we realized it is for the best. We could get the house, but we would have to move in December 30th, which means we have to work our loan 60 days prior to then and we just dont think we will be in a situation that will get us a decent loan with an affordable intrest rate. So while I am sorta bummed (I was sooo looking forward to picking out all the fun stuff for the house!!) we are fine with it because we are going back in June and we know they will have the same houses (they have 350 left to build) for the same prices, and it will give us more of a cushion as far as the move in date...so while I am sorta sad, I am ok with it too :o)
