oh snap

so everything is going good. the meeting that i had the other day went well. my boss called me afterwards to tell me that i did a good job, so that's good. now i just have to make sure that i have everything ready for game day this saturday. i'm a little scared. i have a looooot to do next week so i'm not going to have any time to screw around and be lazy. hmph. ohhh well. at least i'm feeling somewhat better. i can't wait to go and work out tomorrow after work. i would like to go work out today, but then again, not really. haha.

i had a good weekend. we went out on friday night and then saturday night tory and i stayed in and relaxed, so that was nice. he is already off to school for the day trying to get some work done with scott. so i'm at my place washing his sheets for him. it should be a relaxing sunday.

i'm already starting to freak out about this upcoming weekend. bahhh i hope the first game goes good because that is my first real test. it just sucks because this week is the week that i'm going to start taking on all of the office tasks, not just the NPO side. i have to start doing all the accountant stuff too on top of getting everything ready for football. ahhhh i'm going to go insane this next week. hopefully i will surprise myself and do a great job! i guess we will see what happens!!! yiiiiikes. i hope everyone is doing great! love and miss you all!!

just for aunt janice!

well work has been good. i'm liking it a lot, but in the next couple of weeks i'm going to be stressed out like a crazy person. i have to do this meeting this thursday which will be me in front of like 200 people... so that's going to be insane. then after that i'm going to be rushing to get everything ready and together for the football games!! ahhh. i hope i don't screw up!

i had a really good weekend besides the fact that i was sick :( i got really sick when i was coming home from working out on thursday night. i got the chills and couldn't get warm for the life of me. i went to sleep at about 8pm.. so at least i got some sleep. friday morning i was sweating like crazy for some reason. i stayed at work for a couple of hours, but then my boss was like 'get out of here' so i did! so i didn't do too much of anything friday night. saturday night tory and i went to eat at this good hamburger place and went and saw funny people. it was good! but a little long for a comedy. sunday was aweeeeeeesome. tory had a day off in what feels like foooooorever. so we finally got to spend an entire day together doing nothing! it was awesome! we were lazy most of the day but tottenham played at 3:45 so we walked to meridian to watch it! and tottenham wooooon!!!!! they are good this year!! after that win, they are at the top of the league so tory was on cloud 9. we had such a nice day together. it was perfect. today is 18 months!! so that's pretty exciting as well. i think he has to work late today so we won't get to do anything.. but we had a great day yesterday, so it doesn't matter!! well, i hope everyone is doing great! i love and miss you all!!

going good!


whoo hoo, so the first picture is my desk in my office that i share with my boss! the last picture is the outside of the building that i work in. it's the basketball arena. so it's like working in the dean dome! oh man.. if only i was working in the dean dome! that would be craaaazy!! but this job is okie dokie too. hopefully i will get better at it soon!

i joined a gym yesterday and went and worked out yesterday and again today. it felt glorious. and it's in a good location, half way between work and my new place so i'll be able to swing by after work, work out, and then head home. i really like my new place. it's so nice to be around people that aren't trying to boss me around 24/7. i live with a couple, and this guy that is 29, just graduated from college with a major in english. what's funny is, he just got a job at jupiter, like right after i quit! hahaha. he's a pretty nice guy. i think we'll all get along nicely.

all in all it was a pretty boring weekend. i went to sleep way early on friday night. tory and i went to get mexican food last night and watched a movie at his place afterwards. we're wild and crazy kids! hopefully this weekend will be more exciting!

whooo

yesterday was my first real day at work. it was soooooo nice to be doing stuff all day yesterday and having my own space and just everything! i really like it here! i think it will be a good fit for a couple of years! my boss is pretty laid back, so that's nice. i caught him on facebook a few times yesterday, so i think everything will be okie dokie! i'm focusing on just getting the non profit groups set up and everything straight with them for now. so that's nice that i don't have to handle everything at once for now! it's nice having a real job! i'm just so glad to be working and be done at 5 and then i can just do whatever i want! although, once football season starts it will become crazzzzzzy. i will be working 12 hour days, getting to the games 5 hours before kick off and staying probably around 2 hours afterwards counting money and making sure everything is square. i think this job will allow me to have a good chunk of time off during the summer though, so that will be really nice. hopefully i'll be able to come home for about a week or so next summer. christmas break is going to be difficult though since there are basketball games going on during that time. i might just have time to come home the week before xmas and not even be able to spend xmas with the fam.. hmph. i guess we will see what they allow me to get away with! oh and a cool piece of information is that i'm going to be getting a key to the golf cart that i can drive around campus!!!!! i am pumped! also, i didn't know this but there is a building on campus that was used in the filming of mary poppins!!!! i thought that was awesome!

tory and i were able to move me out of my dorm room place yesterday in about an hour and a half. that includes packing, moving out, and moving in. i think we did pretty good! hahaha. it was nice having someone else to help move me out and in because i'm used to moving out/in all by myself. i was quite impressed with us! tory was such a big help. one of the managers at the place came up to me and asked me if i gave tory the code to the door because if i did then i would have to pay to have them re-set it. so annoying. it's not like i'm ever going to want to go back up that hill after i'm down it.. even though. turns out that i will be going up that hill quite a bit to get to the stadium. blast! ohhhh well. i hope everyone is doing good. someone should come visit soon!! i can probably sneak you into a football game for free!! and i think cal is supposed to be pretty good this season. i think they are ranked #2 in the pac 10! so that's pretty cool!

work work work

heyroah! sooo training is going okay. i feel like i'm not doing as much as i need to be doing in order to get everything down before getting thrown into sedexo at berkeley. i don't know. the lady is nice and everything but she spends more time surfing the web than doing her actual job since her boss is gone. hopefully on thursday and friday i will be having a crash course on everything. i just wish i was learning more daily instead of everything being crammed into two days. hmph. all i know is that i better be getting paid for this! i really do enjoy working in san fran though. it's neat to get off work and be walking around san fran! it's hard not to go shopping everyday after work. but then again it's not because i'm so exhausted after work, i'm ready to get on the bart and head home. all i know is this job is going to be harder than i thought. i'm going to have to be an accountant doing payroll and other crap and then i'm going to have to handle all of the NPO stuff and get paper work and everything. it's going to get exhausting. it's weird having to do work from home too. having a real job is going to take a while to get used to, that's for sure! i have off today, which is nice. i think since i'm going to be working most saturdays i will be working 4 days a week and then one weekend day. so that will be nice.. but gamedays will be like 12 hour days... so that will be hard to get used to..

tory and i have been eating dinner at his place the past few nights. it's been nice to make food at home! i just need to get better at making certain things! i think he is enjoying it though!

i think i'm going to go to sign-up for a 7 day pass at a gym today. i need to work out so bad. i feel like i've gained at least 10 pounds since i've been here and it makes me feel gross. hopefully i'll be able to join for no more than $30, and $35/month. hooooopefully! all i know is that i need to invest some moola into working out because i don't want to gain weight. i don't care what other people think when they look at me, it's just the way i feel about myself when i have too much extra weight on me!
