New Job/Moving out/3 years
I have very exciting news since I've last updated. I landed a new job at a marketing firm right across from Fashion Square with a company called The Marketing Group Inc. This basically doubles my current salary at American Express. I cannot help but think that taking a year off school and not getting to go directly into my PhD program has been a blessing in disguise. I now am not jumping right into debt, but into a new exciting job. I am finishing up my two weeks at Amex and today is my last day! I will miss all my friends at Amex but I am sure I will keep in touch with the onest I want to...
Further, I am moving into a sweet new apartment right off the 101 and Scottsdale with Matt. We have been spending the past month buying furniture and prepping for the move in. I am kind of nervous about all of the changes my way, but I can't wait at the same time. Our place is like a resort, and we got such a great deal so I am not killing my savings account. Plus, I will live right by a Paradise Baker, Sushi Brokers, RA, Barcelona and a few other spots I like to hit up often....All within about a 5 mile radius. Now that I have a new job I will continue to live my same lifestyle while being on my own and continuing to save for grad school. My new job also allows me the opportunity to move to California, since I plan to attend school there. I basically had to buy all new business attire since I had enough clothes to last me maybe 5 days. When I went in to fill out new hire paperwork I felt a bit out of place in my business casual.
Today is Matt and my 3 year anniversary, but it doesnt' nearly feel like 3 years. We have matured so much since we first met, I still remember all the stupid fights we had over who would drive where as I got used to the long trip to Cavecreek. Now I am very excited to move in with him and get the opportunity to live with my best friend.
Very excited for the new future.
I need to learn how to cook.
I'll keep you posted.
