Yesterday it was so nice out for a change. I had to go to school which was kinda sad, but luckily when I came home I was able to go rollerblading and take a walk around the block to enjoy the warm sun. Later that night the youth had Winter Blitz again and Greg & Danny did a little skit. The picture I'll put up is of Danny as an alligator. The skit was hilarious. Greg was supposed to be Steve the Aussie crocodile guy and Danny the crocodile I guess. They did a great job acting it out. There were a lot of kids there too and I know they all enjoyed the hypeness of games, worship, and the atmosphere.

All of this week I've been trying to combine my notes for my research paper. It's coming along alright. I'm just taking my grand old time working on it. haha I'm definitely not in a rush to get it done. School has been going okay. My teacher had my article printed in the school newspaper so I'm really happy about that. (Can't remember if I already posted that or not.) I interviewed my friend Melissa about the Disney college intern program and it's in the Cleveland Stater! I've also been working of course at my two jobs. They're still going good!

Last weekend after work I was able to be in the waiting room while my friend had her baby. Ethan William was born March 24th at 6:51 p.m. weighing 7 lbs 8 oz and he's sooo cute!! :) I also stopped by the hospital on Saturday and got to hold him again. Hopefully I can see him this week or next!

Off to work at LWE till 8.....

Wow another busy week has gone by again! Last weekend I worked on Friday then went to a lady's house from church for a little get together. It was mainly the women leaders in youth plus a couple other ladies. It was a lot of fun! We had lasagna, salad, bread, really really good hot chocolate with a cherry on top and we fondued!! Yes! It was exciting. We had strawberries, bananas, grapes, oreos (I brought those hehe), marshmellows, NutterButters, angel food cake, and pretzels. DELICIOUS. I was stuffed to death! We all had a great time talking and hanging out. We didn't leave till midnight! Saturday I worked till 3, then hung around at my house. I met up with Brett at Borders later and we had some smoothies & hung out. Sunday was church, then Dairy Queen. MMmm. I love DQ. :) Later that night I helped my friend Melissa in the nursery/well Rainbows with the crazy bunch of kids. They were so hyper. Luckily we had like 6 adults/teens in there to try to keep them tame. yeah right.
Monday was sad b/c I had to go back to school. Yeah, spring break was over once again. Wow that's my last spring break ever. I just thought of that right now. That's really really sad, isn't it? :( *moan* hmmm...I guess I'll just have to take my own spring breaks or something! ha! Monday I went shopping at yeah you can guess...Gap and got a few things then did some school work. Tuesday I worked at LWE, then last night was cRAZY! Had school- IN my first class my teacher brought us dougnut holes. How nice is he? Then in my next class we had a field trip to a city hall to talk to the mayor. I had to write an article...yey....Then I went to Tower City to pick up something, came home, ate, worked on hw, then went to youth. We've started Winter Blitz..games, skits etc and it was hectic, but fun. I was in a Teletubby skit and I was a model for the game "Deal or no Deal." :) There were a lot of kids there and my best friend Bethany came too. After we went over my friend Eliz's house and finally all four of us were together! We had a great time talking! Today work once again at LWE....

I'm on spring break this week. So far it's been going okay. On Tues and Thurs I worked at LWE. On Monday I shadowed a lady from church who is a Marketing Consultant for a hospital in Lorain. Since I have no idea of what I want to do, I've been asking people about their jobs. This lady has her own cable tv show and does a variety of things. It was really interesting and I learned a lot. I know I don't want to go into health care...I wouldn't be able to handle the sick people, but the consultant part possibly??? We dropped off some of her tapes, took a mini trip to McD's for hot chocolate and visited a doctor who she's going to interview at the beginning of April. Later that afternoon I ran some errands and hung out at home.
Yesterday was my sleep in day and it was wonderful. Part of the reason I slept in till I think 9:30 was b/c I have a stuffy nose. The weather changed on Monday and so me along with a lot of others I'm finding out, have the same symptoms of sickness...sneezing, stuffed up nose, and a itchy throat. My throats ok now, but not my nose. Stupid nose! Ugh. Anyways...kinda bummed around all day..listed some stuff on ebay..nothing really worth a whole lot, but you never know! Then later that evening one of my best friends, Kim, came over to drop off my bday present. She got me some cute earrings and a necklace set. I was happy to have her come over and chat with her for awhile. I miss the 4 of us girls getting together....Then at night we had small groups at youth and it went ok. My group is still hyper, but yea it's fun. They always make me laugh. We're having a penny war for Speed-the-light..guys vs. girls...and Don gave me some pennies to put in the girls jar. Last week he found out about it when he was home. He said he had some pennies and said since I was the first person to ask for them, I could put them in the girls jar. Whoa when I walked in and people found out they were from shh.. A GUY...the guys were upset. BWHAHAHAHAHA. My youth pastor couldn't believe Don "betrayed" the guys like that. Well tough luck guys! :)
That's about it for now! Spring Break is coming to an end here soon..sadly....:( It's not very springy outside.
p.s. I forgot to tell a funny, yet disgusting story from a couple of Sunday's ago.
I was running late for Sunday school and I was getting ready to brush my teeth. So I grabbed what I thought was MY toothbrush. Did the whole brushing routine....looked down...AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WRONG COLOR TOOTHBRUSH! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Yes...I used my mom's toothbrush. I had a sick feeling the whole way driving to church. I couldn't believe it. That grossed me out so much! Well I am ok and have recovered. Luckily. ha!

Wow what a week...I can't even begin to describe how it's turned out. I guess it's been very chaotic and good. That's a good word for it. Monday night was fun b/c I got to hang out with Don at Starbucks...mmmm yummy. It was fun and relaxing! Good time chatting.
Tuesday nothing interesting happened. Wed. night I found out some shocking news from a life long best friend that she's having a baby. She only found out a month before. She's due March 20th..... I don't know how you can't not know that you're having a baby. So that situation has been hard to deal with.
Thursday was my birthday. It was ok. I worked from 8-1 at LWE. A lady sprained her ankle, but she walked out okay I guess. She was stepping up on this block platform and I have no idea what she did. I didn't see it happen, just her the kerplunk. I felt bad, but we iced it and she left to go back to work. Then my manager was running late, but it was okay b/c we talked a little bit after she got there. Came home and cleaned my room b/c I had people over last night. Then my friend Brett called. He was wishing me a happy b-day & asking what I was up to. Then 20 minutes later the doorbell rang and I opened it and it was Brett! Surprise! He brought me a card and a gift. Then later that night my parents and I went to Brio. It's an Italian restaurant that is delicious!! I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone. After the dinner the waiter brought "gellato" (did i spell it right?) coffee and vanilla (ice cream). That was soo good too. Afterwards my parents and I went home. I had been kinda down all day b/c of my friend's baby sitution. (If you want to find out more, just contact me. I don't want to post it so everyone knows. ) I think I'm taking it harder than I thought I would. SOOOOOOOOOOOOO.........
Friday I went to my classes, but had other things on my mind. I just didn't want to be there. No one did. Spring Break is next week starting Monday so we are ready to start now! I later went to work till 6. Don came over early for my party at 7:30. I had an ice cream cake party with 9 friends and we had a GREAT time laughing and playing card games. Later at night Greg, Brett, Matt, Don and Dan starting rapping/beboxing. It was HILARIOUS. It put me in a really good mood and I died laughing. Greg kept on going with his riddling and rhyming. He's great at improvising. Earlier I opened gifts and I got a lot of great things. They know me too well! :) I got a couple journals, a coffee mug, hot chocolate, barnes/ noble giftcard , purse from Victorias Secret with lotion etc and lipgloss/makeup stuff.
Then today I worked 10-2:30 in Baby and Adult. We were really busy in baby. In adult I had fun helping a few people that I knew. I love seeing repeat customers! Then tonight in continuation of my b-day weekend (lol) we're going ICE SKATING! oh yea!!! :) So excited! :) I must go!

Wow I've had a busy week/weekend so far. On Friday I wasn't scheduled to work because we're over hours, so my friend Hannah and I hung out. We went to Malley's Ice cream shop in Bay and we got mickey mouse ice cream with peanut butter underneath, chocolate sauce, vanilla ice cream, reese's pb cup ears, button eyes, and a red nose. It was DELICIOUS! Then we didn't really know what to do, so we drove on Lake Rd. and looked at the HUGE houses and ended up at Target and Old Navy. We also had a great time chatting of course! Later that evening I worked on homework...
Saturday I worked at Gap till 4, then came home for an hour and left to go to my youth pastor's house for a leader's meeting about an upcoming retreat. The meeting went kinda long....6-10, but it was fun hanging out throwing ideas around. After that Don, Brett, and I went to Brett's house to hang out since Don came home from college.
Sunday I went to Sun. school and church, came home, ate, then Don and I went to the Cleveland Auto show. Wow..some of those cars are WAY TO EXPENSIVE. They'd have to be a car and house combo for the price you'd pay for a new car. I did like them, but I can't justify paying 50-125,000 for a car. I like the BMW's...ha yea they're REALLY expensive too. The Hummer and Escalade were nice of course. I saw a mercedes kompressor for $125,000. SHESH! A 2 seater. right....There was also an awesome concept Ford luxury truck I really liked. Looked like the inside of an airplane. It was fun dreaming for a day and sitting in the cars. :)
I didn't go to church that night (I know...lol) b/c I had an outline due on Monday which took me about 5 hours to do..GRR.
Today I cleaned and worked 1-8 at LWE. Nothing too exciting there lol. It was sample day and I sold some Apex products and made over 50 calls trying to get people in the club. WHEW!

Today I went to my classes, then to Channel 5 to interview my dad's friend who is a salesman. He sells time for advertising. I had to interview someone in my chosen field/career for my Com management class. Since I don't know what I want to do, I chose sales. It was a lot of fun going to the station again and it was very informative. We also took a little side trip to Ch. 3 to pick up a tape, then back to the station to finish. I met a few other people who know my dad and remembered me from when I had been there. There wasn't a whole lot going on at the time, but it was still fun to be there.
Yesterday I worked till 3, then went to the dentist and once again NO CAVITIES! WOO WOO! :) After that I came home, then went to Dave & Buster's with my Sunday School class. We had a really great meal..I got mashed potatoes, Jack Daniel's BBQ chicken & green beans that were really skinny and my friends called them "anorexic green beans." With the dinner we got a powercard which we used for the games. I didn't do so well at skeeball or basketball, but liked this game where you launch a ball to get it in a whole for tickets. I also liked the slot machine where u line up fruit. It's neat there b/c you get your powercard and just swipe it at machines to play them. When I was done playing, I got this huge soupbowl cup from my tickets. Good times!
