Moving On Up and Growing Up
Hey there pretty ladies...doesn't that sound creepy? Like something a sick 50 year old skeezy man would say to you? Oh well, hi girls! So it's been awhile since I've blogged, though not as long as some others, ahem Gina. Wow ok poor Gina, we all pick on her about that. Anyway I miss you guys! I was riding the tube to work today, and Tina TUrner's "What's Love Got To Do With It?' came on my ipod and made me think about Gryon and you girls! So yea we need to go back asap.
Things here are going really well. I am continuing to settle in and really am enjoying life here in the BIg Apple. 2 weeks ago I went into my boss's office after that meeting where I was told I would be a temp for anohter couple of months, think I blogged about it because I was pretty upset about that, anyway told her that I loved working here, but unless I got a contract asap I owuld be looking for other means of employment. So I met with the prinicipal 2 days later and got my contract! I had a momentary breakdown when I was going to drop off my signed copy to the principal, knowing that I now have my next year set. Which, as you girls know, I am not such a planner so that kinda scared me. But I think it's a good move on my part, just weird to be growing up, well kinda growing up. It kicks in on June 1 but it's all signed and ready to go. SO that has made a big difference. Been going out with my friends a lot and been having a good time. I've met some more coworkers too, which is always nice to make more friends. My roomie Kim and I have become great friends, and through her I ma meeting some of her friends, so never a dull moment, which is how I like it! This weekend I went to a great tapas restaurant with a friend from CPK and had soo much fun, then I went out on Saturday night with some other buddies and came in as the sun was coming up, ah. I thought it would be a good idea to try and crush a beer can on my head, because I've always wanted to do that, and my roomie's boufriend was encouraging me. So after several failed attempts, I now (still) have a ring on the top of my forehead of the beer can. Nice one Sarah. Not gonna lie, my head is still kinda sore, why do I do these things? My friends made a picture montage of this ridiculous stunt from start to finish, there's one for the scrapbook.
So as of right now, I am planning on being in NYC for the next year, but after that, unless something really chages, which is totally possible, a year is a long time, I'm thinking it might be time for the next adventure. A year and a half is a long time for this old girl to be standing still.
So I'm heading home this coming weekend for Becca's wedding, Tara'a and my friend from London, this coming Saturday, which worked out well because it's over Memorial Day. It's in Chapel HIll which I am excited about because I am staying that night with my friend Kubis and going out with him and hopefully some other friends. Then I am home all that week, which I am thrilled about, because I am in my college roommates wedding the next weekend! A week at home with my fam and my animals is defintely gonig to be great.
So that's about it with my life, just missing you girls and wising we could all be taking a leisurely stroll up the Swiss Alps for a picnic. Whitney, I am in Italy for your wedding:( and Chelsie, I wrote you a couple of weeks ago about trying to find a flight out there but not sure if I could swing it. It's not looknig so great, especially because of this next week me taking off and being gone, but unfortunately it's been planned for forever. So I hate to say that it's just not really feasible for me to come, which I really hate. I will keep looking and see if there's a way I can come, but don't think I am going to be able to. I am so sorry girls, I cannot tell you how much it means to me to be invited to your specail days, and cannot tell yuo how much I absolutely hate that I can't come. Just annoys me that if I had been put on salary and contract when I was told that I would be that this might not have been an issue. But that's the breaks I suppose. But somehow, we are all going to get together soon, because it has been too long for us all not to see each other.
I better go, as this is an insaenly long blog. I love you guys! I think about you all all of the time, and hope that everyone is happy.
