Here's an update-

A lot has been going on. I’ll group it by subject so hopefully it will be easy to follow.

LOVE <3
Well I am officially in love. I went down to my grandparent’s house for the weekend and just got back. I realized how important Grandparents are. My grandparents are the best people in the world. They showed me off to everyone they could, to tell their friends about me. I have never felt so proud to be their grandchild before. I sat down with my grandparents and talked to them about a new job offer (read below), and the told me to go for it. Alex, my grandfather, told me that it doesn’t matter if I go to college or not, no matter what I do I will be successful. I have heard this from a few people and it just kind of rubs off on me since they don’t really know me, and I don’t have anything to base their opinions on. When Alex told me this I was so happy. He said I remind him of him when he was younger. He started his own business and that current business that he still owns is worth over $15 million. I take all of his advice, and always listen to the wise stories he has. He is such a great guy. My grandmother (Nana) has always thought very highly about me and I have always known that, but the last few times I have been with her I can tell just how proud she is. She glows every time I see her. I LOVE my grandparents. 

Volunteering- I did the Junior Achievement thing again a few weeks ago. I had a great time. It’s so nice to see kids exciting about learning and seeing me helps them. They had a great time. I doubt I will see any of them again since they just graduated and will be off to Jr. High School. Crazy. I hope they all do well in life-

Work- errr. This is going to be a long topic. Well I have been doing pretty well at work. I keep beating my previous months. So I am getting more stressed but paid more too. So I guess it’s a good trade off. (Side note, I am looking into buying a house) I spoke to the mortgage broker that is helping me find a loan and he wanted to go to lunch to talk about some options for employment. I have been working with this guy for about 4 months (not about my loan, but I refer customers to him, like people with bad credit, mo money etc.) He liked the way that I worked, and said he would be interested in working with me. He said that I needed to get my sales license before I can work with him. So he gave me a phone number to a company that does that. I ordered the books $299 and am currently waiting for them to come so I can start studying. The whole process should take about 3-4 months. Then I can work with him and do mortgages there. I could make the same amount of $$$ with ¼ the amount of work. So that’s nice.

I haven’t been online that much since I have been working so much. But hopefully I will be online more.

Aug 7th is my sisters 24th b-day, and I have no clue what to give her.
Aug 14th is my cousins 16th b-day and I have no clue what to get her.
Aug 20th is my mom’s 50th b-day and I have no clue what to get her.

If you guys have any suggestions that would be great. I am at a loss on what to get them….. I’m a bad son/cousin/brother for not getting them presents before... oh well… please let me know what would be a good gift. Around $25 for sister/cousin, and $50-100 for mommy. Thanks
