I cannot believe the entire summer has already gone by! I may be obsessed w/details but I think I can keep this kind of short. I'll separate into categories...
Work: As per usual, I am still working at Stoppie. I have been promoted to Greeter for Shopping Buddy, so I have been getting longer shifts with all my favorites. I also had a really bad encounter with a customer that sent me home crying. It was probably the worst day I have ever had at the work place. I am also hanging out w/a ton of cool kids from Scituate i know from Stoppie. I also stopped working at the Majestic Theatre. I didn't have anymore shows this summer to work there, and I figure that 6.75 an hour to work nights only on weekends really isn't worth it to see free shows anymore. Finally, I had an intern this summer with Boston Ballet. I absolutely loved working there. I hope I can get a job there when I come home and after graduation. I loved everyone I worked with and the environment. Not to mention full time employees children can take class for free :) One final BBS story...I met the Rock. I mean, Dthe wrestler/movie star. He's sooooooo beautiful. He was filming a movie called Game Plan. He used to walk by my desk everyday! He bruised his achilles tendon so the movie was put on hold, so I stopped seeing him, but that was definitely a perk! I also started taking adult open classes and got my first pair of pointe shoes through BBS.
Friends: Some of you may be surprised to hear that it was kind of a boring summer. I think I went to one party the entire summer. The dome really cooled down after May. We had a group beach day on Memorial Day and all hung out 4th of july, but nothing like old dome. 5 of us went to 6 flags for Marissa's B-day, and that was good too. I also have been hanging out w/Bubba and Lori more than anyone else this summer. Turning 21 in May, I did also spend a lot of times at bars. I mostly ended up at Barefoot Bob's or the Parrot, but I am happy to finally get into those places! I also went to see Pirates of the Caribbean II twice. The first one i saw 7 times in the theatre, so im a little bummed that I didn't even come close. Hopefully I'll be seeing it w/Marissa and some dome-ians again before I leave. I wish I had done more exciting things this summer but w/all the working, I really didn't have many wild nights like i usually do.
Love Life: I got dumped after a month of being ignored. But I'm over it :) and single ;-)
Near Future: For those of you who don't know, I'm going to Europe in 2 weeks. I'm starting in Ireland, visiting England, Czech Republic, Germany and France, and staying in the Netherlands. Who knows where else I'm going to end up. Right now I am currently holding tickets to see both Iron Maiden and Dragonforce while over there. These will be my first metal shows ever and it will be amazing to see Iron Maiden in their homeland, England, and just to see Dragonforce at all. My mom and is are coming to visit me for Thanksgiving in Paris. We're going to Paris Disneyland, Versailles, and everything else! If anyone wants a postcard, give me your address! This will be the first time in my life i can cut everyone else and think about myself and figure out what I want out of life. A lot of people get to do this at college, but college really hasn't been that experience for me yet. Hopefully this trip will be as amazing as everyone else keeps telling me it will be. all i ask for is for people to pray for my flight to be safe - especially when im on british airways!
if anyone wants to see me before i leave...let me know! only 2 weeks left!
