Old & New
Howdy y'all, how goes it?
I know it's been awhile ... I'm glad to see many have not taken me off their friends' lists but I am sure am wondering, daydreamin who???
Anyway, hope everyone had a great holiday and are preparing for a fun night. Me? Well, Mike & I just bought a bunch of food and we have some movies to watch. The champagne is chilling and it looks like it will be a fun and relaxin' evening here in Newport News. Which is fine 'cause last year, New Year's Eve was off the wall and my birthday is around the corner so I can really celebrate then, you know?
So this is where I've been since April '06
May: dealt with finals ... finished up my short stint working at the Peanut Shop (which recently caught fire a few weeks ago, sadness) ... enjoyed and cherished all the ongoings of graduation ... finally worked on my resume ... had my first interview (Dept. of Juvenile Services) ... chilled/hung out at home for 4 weeks
June: moved into an apartment with Mike in Newport News ... took a lie detector test for first job ... continued to job hunt ... 2nd job interview (Keystone Residential Facility) ... referred to my 3rd job interview (Safehaven Shelter for Abused & Neglected Children) ...
July: offered part time position (Safehaven) ... hired full-time (Juvenile Detention) & accepted it
August: began training for job ... started new job ... decided the job wasn't what I was looking to do despite the amazing pay and minimal amount of work I had to do ... continued to job hunt ...
September: left job at Juvenile Detention Center ... started training for part time job with Safehaven ... enjoyed the company of the W&M crew that had returned for another year of work & play ...
October: doubted my confidence in my desire/ability to want to work with children ... unsure of what/where I wanted to be with my career ... 4th job interview (Freedom Furniture Co.) ... 5th job interview (First Investors Coroporation) ... 12 hour shifts on the weekends at Safehaven cut back (my choice) ...
November: 6th job interview (Aeropostale) ... got the job ... promoted to stock supervisor within 3 days ... life seemed to be better ... Thanksgiving in Newport News ...
December: crazy work (shitty pay) at Aero ... happy that my credit card limit was increased ... more hours given from Safehaven ... two weeks notice given at Aero ... and now...
I'm just hoping this will be another good year for one and all - enjoy and be safe ^_^
