A Few Things..

Harry Potter 6 premiered in London, and even though it was raining, the cast Emma looks amazing! Ok, so Rupert looks pretty cute too, but I'm not digging Daniel's look.
I had a nice weekend. Andy turned 23 on Friday so we went downtown to a couple of bars. He got an i-phone for his birthday, and I'm sorta jealous (but I'll just steal it..shhh). I ended up buying him some random gifts (a lobster beach towel, calphalon knife) and made him some chocolate covered pretzels. I also found this poster for him: I chose Boston since he grew up there, but they have a wide range of cities to choose from.We had a low key fourth of July. We grilled some weenies on the fire, made s'mores and watched the fireworks. It actually ended up being pretty perfect. How was your fourth of July weekend?

I'm on a work out kick again (3 weeks til the beach!) but my parents won't pay for my gym pass anymore so I've been doing work out videos. Tony Horton kicks my butt! At least he's nice to look at.
I'm re-reading the Twilight series for the 5th time. I have a serious problem.
Hope you are all doing well. I'll post again soon, I've been slacking lately!

A Few Things..

-I saw The Hangover again...soo good! Andy and I had a nice little date last night. We went out to eat at a local restaurant, stopped at the store to sneak in some drinks and candy, bought our popcorn, and laughed through the movie. I can't wait for it to come out on video.

-Jon & Kate are getting divorced..not totally surprised, but bummed out. I actually used to like them. I really think they need to stop the show. I feel bad for the kids!

-Today I planted flowers and trimmed bushes for the first time in my life..considering it my workout for the day!

-I cut 4 inches off my hair and am thankful that I didn't go shorter. I don't hate it but it's a big adjustment and I officially decided that I can never have a bob because short hair just doesn't cut it on me! My hair is super thick and it makes my head look huge. So I'm already growing it out.

-Summer is going by so fast! Andy's birthday is next week. He'll be 23 (any good gift ideas?)

-I have found soo many great blogs lately that I'll have to do a special post about.

-Starting the countdown for my birthday. I can't wait to turn 22 in August!

-I hope you are all enjoying your summer. I'm itching to plan a vacation soon! Any good recommendations? (that are cheap too lol)

Weekend

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! I just got back from Cincinnati for a triple graduation party. Three of my cousins graduated high school and my whole family met up (which is a rare occasion). Since there are so many of us (twenty-six grand kids, my dad has 6 siblings, many who live out of Ohio) it only happens every couple of years. It was nice to see everyone, catch up, and share memories, but it went by so fast! I'm excited to relax tomorrow because I feel like I have been driving and walking around everywhere. Hopefully I have time for some decent blogging!

Hi!

Woops, it's been a couple days but I was back at school moving in to the new apartment and I didn't have internet access. The new place is nice. It's a bit small and dated, but it works for 6 months. It was nice to take a couple days off the internet but it is nice to see what I missed:

New Moon poster was released..gosh November seems so far away!

Cannes Films Festival began

Gossip Girl Finale..did you watch? Thoughts?
And of course I had tons of posts to read! It was fun to catch up. I've found some great blogs lately that I have to share with you all!

In other news, I got a phone call yesterday from my new job telling me that the teacher I was supposed to replace has decided to stay. So I'm out of a job again. Ugh! Hopefully that will change soon. Bye loves!

News

So I went job hunting today. Since I am becoming a teacher, I wanted to find something in the child care field. I literally called about 20 different day cares! Some showed interest, some didn't hire for the summer at all, and a lot said to just drop off a resume. So I drove to a couple day cares close by, then on my way home randomly stopped in to another one that I wasn't planning on going to..and I GOT A JOB! I was so excited because I wasn't expecting anything since the others just took my resume and said goodbye. So I will be a teacher for school age children and I get to plan all sorts of fun activities and play with kids all day! This is my first full time job so I can't wait to get started in June.

In other news, I went shopping yesterday and got SIX dresses. Good thing I found a job. If you are trying to save money, avoid TJ Maxx. But if you are ready to spend, head there because they have adorable shoes and dresses (like always).

Uggs

The classic debate: love em or hate em?
I love them..they might not be the most fashionable boot, but nothing beats their warmth and comfort..and that's a big plus in my book when I'm trekking across campus in a blizzard!
