WOW, it has been so long since I had updated this journal. I have been extremely busy with work and my life. So much had happened.
Work has been going really well and busy. Which it's usually a shocker for me, because I really don't like working. BUT, I do love my job. I just came back from a Sales & Credit Conference for E*TRADE and finally got my business cards. I feel so special...haha I also been hanging out with my co workers alot after work. These are people you spent 8+hours with, so they are pretty much your friends. All I can say is that my co workers are major party people. Always at the bars and drinking. We usually hang out in Newport Beach and Huntington Beach.
Now regarding Kristopher, we are so much into each other. I really feel in my heart that this is the man that I will be with for the rest of my life. We are so connected and he makes me laugh all the time. He never lets me down and we are just a really good team together. He is my other half, my bestfriend and my soul mate for sure.
Now onto something really important. Please DON'T ever DRINK & DRIVE. I learned that on July 31st, when I got my first DUI and never had anything on my driving record prior to that. You spent a night in jail, have to deal with messed up cops, get your license taken away, court, and pay lots of fines. Basically I passed all the test, but the cop still felt like I was somewhat under the influence and arrested me. My car was impounded for the night. When I got there, they taken a blood test. It came out to be a .19 later, which the state limit is .08. I was twice as much over the limit. I went to court and got lucky though. I have to pay $1450.00 in fines, $475.00 in alcohol classes for 3 months, 3 years unsupervised probation, 90 days of restricted license and high ass insurance coverage now. All this may seem much, but it's actually less than what most people get. I could had been doing community service OR pay up to $5000.00 in fines and spent a month in jail, since my alcohol level was twice as much. This has been a huge lesson for me and driving is a privilage. It's somewhat behind me now and I am lucky I do have the support from my friends and family. Kristopher has been behind me alot and also people at my job. For sure I am never drinking and driving in Newport Beach, that city DOES NOT mess around. Hope everyone is doing well and keep in touch...
