Long Time No See...
Dude, I haven't wrote in this think in like 2 months... Where to start?
Well, there has actually been a lot of stuff going on in my life lately. I've had my up's and down's at work lately. It's just really stressful, and I work about 60 hours a week (unfortunately I'm paid salary...). Although today was the best day I've had at work ever. We had our monthly sales meeting, which usually consists giving out "top producer" awards and going over the numbers and what not. Well, one of the awards that they give out is the Magnus Award. It's only given out two 3 loan consultants per month (out of 550) and its for the best overall improvement. The best part of this award is that #1 award winners for the past three months get an all expense paid trip to NYC. And I was the number one award winner for last month! So I get to go to New York in two weeks! It's actually a really big honor, and I'm almost as excited just to get the award. The trip's just a perk.
For those of you who don't know, I've actually been seeing someone for a while now. I haven't really said anything to too many people, because I didn't want to hear anyone's shit about it. For once in my life, I'm listening to myself instead of my friends. Something new I've been trying out for a few months, and I've realized that I can actually think for myself. Interesting huh? Just in case your wondering, me and Dana have been back together for a couple months. And if you have something to say about it, well quite honestly, I don't really care. This is that whole thinking for myself thing... I don't mean to sound like a complete douche bag, but I've let my friends influence my decisions in the past, and I'm not going to let that keep happening. The amazing part is that things have been really good between us, and guess what, I'm happy. I haven't been happy in a really long time, and I think I deserve it. Now let me step off my high-horse for a few moments...
Anyway, more new stuff... I've been looking at getting a house for a few months now. The whole process has given me a headache, and I'm going to be waiting for a few more months before I get one. Probably in the spring. I'm going to save up some more money before I get one. So, since I've decided to wait for a while, I have been spending money again. I forgot how much I like to spend. I bought a new laptop on Monday. I'm using it right now. I've been so stressed out, so I've decided to go on vacation. I wanted to go to the
Bahamas next week, but I could only get Friday off. So I'm taking Dana to Niagara Falls for her birthday next weekend. Then in November I'm going to the Bahamas or Jamaica, I haven't decided yet. Anywhere warm with a beach and alochol!
I've been talking to Vanessa a lot more lately. We took a road trip last Saturday night to Oregon, OH for a smoke run. It was good times. By the way, the Tim Hortons in Ohio is much nicer than our's in GC... FYI. She's one of the people I know I can talk to about work, because she actually know's what it's like to work a lot and get stressed out. I haven't seen too much of Mel, unfortunately, because she too works all the time. I haven't had my Mel time in a long while and I miss it! I'm sure there's things I've missed from the past two months, but I've babbled long enough so I'm going to end it here.
