Life is Beautiful

Ahem... .to SOME people (JEN JEN JEN) I was spending soooo much time changing the blog, that I had to run to class cuz I didn't realize how late it was.... so here I am... giving you a brand spanking new blog and post! Fantastic ain't it???

Let's start with this little ditty:

Two of my favorite things in such a small area!!! It's the song "Life Is Beautiful" From Vega4 AND scenes from Grey's Anatomy.... does it get any better than that right there? Nope... didn't think so. If you aren't a Grey's Anatomy fan, check on Vega4 because they are my latest obession. Phew... okay, on to other things...

like my new blog!!! I needed a change. I love the polka dots and all, but I've had this blog for quite some time and it was SCREAMING change me!!! So I did. And on the right hand side of this whole thing is a news feed, so check it out. It's good to be in the know of the news (Corny statement!) so learn a thing or two besides what I did over the weekend! haha. I know both are top priorities, but still.... you need some culture people!!

I got an 80% on my Bible Test!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! etc. lol. Oh man. I'm so pumped. That's the first test I've done good on in the last three months of being here. I don't know if that's sad or what, but I'm so proud of myself. So very proud. I studied a lot with my friend Marta and we went over the essays a million bagillion times. I only got two points off of the essays (out of a total of 50 points, so not bad) and then multiple choice, just some of them were really hard. And yes, it's a B-, but the last test was a 69% because of that bogus third essay question he just threw on there without telling anyone. I would have a B right now in that class if it wasn't for that essay quesetion. Whatever, water under the bridge! Let me bask in the glory of NOT failing yet another test!!! (Bask Bask Basking away)

Oh wait, I have more news to bask in! I think I got the Wells Fargo job I applied for!! I had an interview with them last Thursday and I was horribly sick. But I still went cuz Samantha told me to just push through it and then I can die later. Haha. And well they called me on Tuesday and wanted me to come in and fill out a background check! And my mom made a good point, who would waste their time on a background check if they didn't want to hire me? NO ONE! Well, maybe loserish companies, but hopefully not here! So everyone cross their fingers cuz this could be the month Amy leaves her job.
Sidenote: Tomorrow it will be 4 years since I started working at Panera Bread! Eep!!
But yah... life is just too good right now. Way too good. Which also means that something bad is probably going to happen. But because I am a positive person, I won't focus on that until it happens; then of course I'll wallow in self pity and forget about all the good things and write angry blogs. Mmmm satisfying. =)

Okay, well way too much has happened since I last wrote to really write a detailed blog on everything, but I can give you the most important stuff.
I got an 86% on my CWC Test. Amazing right? NOPE! The teacher added wrong and I actually got a 76%. I had to tell the teacher and that was really hard. BUT in the end she gave me an 81% probably cuz I was honest. So I'm happy in the end, but that was a craptacular week following that. From there, Jen and Adam started dating! ON april 1st too. how cute is that!? Love it love it. Uh lets see here... we went to Adam's house and just hung out. Nothing too spectacular. I had Anna's Bridal shower which turned out really well... all of her friends were there, she got soo much stuff (Kelly's gift takes the cake. It was well thought out) and she cried. Not because she was sad, but she was so happy that everyone was in the same room. And probably embarrassed because of all the wedding gifts she got. Haha. Good times. I started tanning and I actually look healthy. Who knew that could happen. Lol.

Last week was a short week since we had Good Friday and then Easter Monday!! So we had a bonfire at Justin's which was stupid because it was freezing, but so much fun because it was different and it was with people I love. I bought s'more stuff and we took an hour to get the thing finally burning so there was heat. Johnny came by too and that was just great. I love seeing him. It makes be so calm in a world so chaotic. I feel like I'm in 10th grade all over again without a care in the world.

Friday was a really cool Good Friday service at Open Door. we actually walked around to stations in the sanctuary of how people expressed their faith, and then we wrote stuff on black cards and nailed our names to crosses. That was really hard. After that we watched the Passion of the Christ and even though that movie is hard to watch, it helps remind us of what we are doing here and why and how. It's good.

Saturday was full of giggles. Literally. Jen, Kara, and I just laughed and laughed and tickled and joked the whole night. Jen was tired, I was just off of work, and Kara needed to blow off steam cuz her job is dumb lately. Needless to say, we got to lay in Nate's bed and I got to laugh. Two of the best things in life. Tee hee.

Easter came and went. I worked, I saw some family which was nice, and I got Caribou with Nate, Sarah, and Kara. We took funny pictures and then went to Applebees where Justin met up with us. We THEN went to Nate's house and played pool, listened to music, and talked in Nate's room, on Nate's bed. I played with a sword and got punched by Justin. I have a bruise to prove it!! Oh man.. it was fun.

Monday I went to John's baseball game with Kara and Justin (they did so bad!!! I won't even go into it... lets just say that Crown's pitcher hit more people than he got strikes, and by the 3rd inning, the other team had well over 10 points.) We played on the playground that was there and Justin spun me so much I felt like tossing the cookies. But phew, I didn't. Then I went to see Seward at Stout.

Somewhere in there we played Mafia two nights in a row and some other stuff, but I've already talked your ear off.. or written your ear off? I dunno. You decide. I'm out. Enjoy the longness.... i'm going to go to work!
