Alot has been going on since the last time I updated 3 weeks ago..
Work- I absolutely LOVE my new job!!! This is something that had my name written all over it. As an operator I am always busy. I come in to about 4 or 5 carts of reshop (clothes and items that are returned and also found by the team members in their zones). My job is to sort through all of it and organize it by 1. hardlines (actual product- pretty much everything but clothes), 2. shoes, 3. Boys/ Girls hardlines and folded clothes 4. Infant hardlines and folded clothes 5. Jewerly/ Accessories/ packaged lingurie and socks, 6. Men hardlines and folded clothes and 7. RTW (ready to wear) womens folded clothes. Those 7 things all go in seperate tubs in the fitting room closet where we keep all of our supplies. Then there is hung ready to wear- womens and juniors clothing that is hung on hangers. All of those need to go on a huge Z- rack and need to have 1. The correct hanger size 2. The correct size # that corresponds to the size of the clothing piece 3. Hung the correct way and 4. needs to be zipped and buttoned. When putting the clothing on the Z-rack on the top goes 1. Bathing suits and 2. Clearance. and on the bottom you must block it by brand name from the farthest from the fitting room to the closest. I also get to do overhead pages such as paging the team huddle, paging a guest/ team member, and doing the overhead closing announcements. and all while doing this I also answer the phone and direct the calls to where they need to go. I also have to clean the fitting rooms at night and also sort and repackage rewrap. As you can tell there is something that always needs to be done and I'm always busy so the days fly by fast. I got so many hours too! I am working about 30 hours per week now.. pretty much almost everyday. On the new schedule that just came out I work Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. and its great because I get to work morning shifts so when I get out I have the entire night free! I am so glad that I quit hallmark because for once I am finally happy with my job! :-)
School-.. is almost over. About a month and a half left. I go monday through Thursday so the weeks are just flying by. I love anatomy and physiology and Nutrition.. both of those I am aceing. Speech I am getting about a B and I'm not sure now I'm doing in political science. I registered for summer classes as well. At Macomb Center campus I am taking Chemistry, at Macomb South campus I am taking self-defense for my phys. ed credit, and at Oakland I am taking the second anatomy and physiology course. I wanted to get all of my classes done in the summer but they wouldn't fit. So I should be done with all of my pre-reqs by Fall 2006 and apply for the dental hygiene program right after that. I also made the deans list! Woo- Hoo!
Money- I think that I am finally going to be able to start saving up which is exciting! I've been using my credit card to make my purchases and at the end of my statement I use my paycheck to pay for it. So that way I always have money on me and I'm building good credit at the same time.
My Car- The lease on my car expires in August and I think I may be getting my dads blazer unless I can make enough to buy my grand am that I am in love with. It's definately going to be hard parting with that car :-( I may even want to look into leasing another car because I saw that to lease a G6 its not too much. I'm not sure.. I've got a lot of research to do.
My Love Life- well they dont call it a love life for nothing because I am loving life with him! :-) Everything is going absolutely wonderful! We will be celebrating our 7 month anniversary in a couple of days, but it feels like we should be celebrating our 2 year. He makes me so happy and is the only one who has the ability to make me smile during the hardest times. Life with him there certainly isn't a dull moment. We are either laughing with each other or just being silly and I love that I can truly be myself around him. I've never admired and loved someone so much. <3
Today- Well its my day off and its supposed to be really warm so I want to go run track or something. I just want to be outside and loving the weather. But I think it's supposed to ran (figures!). It would be fun to grill something though or go up to stoney and bike around the bikepath. I've got work tomorrow from 8-4pm and on sunday 8-1pm and tons of homework to do which isn't going anywhere. I also want to go to the Raft on Sunday really really really bad... hint hint.. I'm craving a Raft burger like crazy! But I'm going to go start my lazy, relaxing, do nothing but feel accomplished day! :-)
