Good Day

Today was a good day.

I got paid.

And made my own coffee.

Best of all, it was WARM! I love the heat. Especially after months and months of rain.

Best of all:

MY MOM PASSED THE B.A.R. EXAM!!!!

Yeah, I know, right? SO excited! When she called me and told me I started jumping and yelling in the middle of the parking lot. We've been waiting for months to find out. I told her she'd pass her first time around. Now she just has to jump through a few little hoops, get sworn in and then she'll be a real lawyer! Go. Mom.

I'm wrapping up my evening by putting a bunch of recipes in my recipe notebook and listening to music. I was going to do laundry, but I was locked out. So be on the look-out for reviews of new recipes I'll be trying...

Summatime

And the livin' ain't so easy. I'm still well qualified to represent the LBC, but I'm staying up in Oregon. I've also become sick three times in the last month including giving myself food poisoning last night. Good going Ferguson.

I'm working full time for the first time of my life. Sitting at a desk 8-5 every weekday. Yaaaaayyy...... The nice thing is that I've got time on my hands (at night). Yet my to-do list is piling up and not everything is getting done. But I am blogging! Which is something that's on my mental things to get in the habit of during summer. So hopefully you'll be hearing from me more often.

Other summer hopefuls:

~Trying new recipes (which I will be quite cautious of after last night....many phone calls to my Dad(s) will be taking place)

~Finishing a project I've started for my sweetie (ssshhhh....he doesn't know yet!)

~Making progress with the radio station (Yes, working during summer even though I'm not getting paid. THAT's how much I love my job. kfoxradio.georgefox.edu)

~Working out! My plan is to try different work outs everyday, figuring out which ones I like. Then putting them together for the ultimate workout routine! Yay!

~Getting ready for my EUROPE TRIP!!!! In June I'm going on a three week trip to Italy and France! I'm SO excited. If you'd like to follow me along on that trip, you can do that here: http://aubineurope.blogspot.com/

~Create! Specifically ceramics projects

~Finish a script I started this last semester for class

It's a lot going on...but I have high hopes :-)

a sign of the times

Sometime last week I got locked out of my apartment.

I was just going out to my car so I grabbed my keys. Not my I.D. card that lets me into the building, or my phone.

I get back to the building from my car and realize I can't get in. This isn't the first time that it's happened, and it certainly won't be the last. I was lucky though. There was a guy in the building already and so he let me in. The problem was, he doesn't live in our building. So he couldn't get into the hallway. Neither of us had our phones, so we couldn't call people to let us in. I remembered that one of my roommates was on Facebook when I left. So I went to one of the computers in the lobby, to log in. The whole time thinking

"What would we do if we didn't have Facebook, or cell phones?"

While my computer was logging me in and connecting to the Internet, the guy stuck with me ran outside to bang on the windows of the people he was seeing. They came out to get us.

We defeated the problem old-school.

Then I realized later that before Facebook and cell phones, we wouldn't have had to slide I.D. cards to get into the building.

Oh this modern age...

It's been a good night

I just got to play virtual dress up and enter a contest at the same time.

Time well spent.

I'm not forcing it

I give up.

I'm not going to force this blog to be about anything in particular anymore.  I don't keep up on it.  So it is now up for anything and everything.  Most likely without any consistency. 

I hope you enjoy, and welcome to my life.

Photography contest!

So I entered a photography contest. Check it out and vote for me! :-)
