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!
