I might be a bakery girl

So today I have an interview with the Bakery Lead at my H-E-B. I'm hoping to get the position and transfer to the bakery. I'm tired of the front end(cashier & bagger) and I'm ready for a change of pace. Most of the people I've talked to about the bakery don't like it, but it seems like there reasons are things I don't mind doing. So I'm hoping for the best.

I'm on a freakin' billboard!!!

Look it's me! On a billboard!!! I finally got a picture in front of one of these. It's pretty cool to see yourself on the highway. It's also fun to hear all the hilarious stories from my friends about how they saw this and what happened. You have to know that this one was on I-35 downtown, so you can imagine what would happened.

it's been way too long...

So i've realized it's been way too long since I've blogged and I'm finally at a computer that doesn't take forever to type. I'm not trying to make any excuses but I've had a lot of them. Let me start from the beginning.

The biggest reason why I haven't done this is both of the computers at my house are on the fritz. One of them has a bad virus and the other one has "issues." The next one would be school. Since the computers didn't really work at home I had to use the ones at school. I really don't like being on the computers at school because I have to stay there longer than needed. Plus, the work load was longer and I really wasn't focused extra stuff. Now I did have access to my dad's computer at his office but usually he would kick me off because he needed it.

But the main reason was forgetfulness. I honestly forgot about this for awhile. But the lovely Jenny has been making sure I don't forget this time. Oh, and Dani, too.

A lot has happened and I want to share some of it with yall but you'll have to wait and see what that will be.

i'm still alive

Hi everyone

I'm still alive. I've been really busy and the computer I normally use is broken. So I keep forgetting to update. I can't do much tonight because I'm in the middle of a research paper and editing other papers. I will update but like I said not now. I miss blogging. :(

summer school here i come

Earlier this week I decided to take at least one class this summer. I never done summer school and the thought of going to school in the summer sounds like torture, but it's necessary. Also Casey will be trying to go back to school starting this summer so I won't be alone.

So to move on today...I decided before I take any classes I would see what I have left to take. I've been at ACC for a couple of years and I've taken a full load each semester. I saw one of the advisers on campus and found out that I only need 3 MORE CLASSES TO GRADUATE! I couldn't believe it. I kept thinking this is really happening. I'll be able to graduate soon, very soon.

The 3 classes I have left will take me 3 semesters to complete which is kind of a bummer but exciting. This summer I'm going to take History of Photography. Basically a snooze class and in the fall I'll be taking Studio Management. It should be too bad since it will be the only one. Then next summer I'll be taking Portfolio Development. It's an intense class. You're required to have a strong body of work and you have to be accepted into the class. A few people have told me that I already have a strong body of work but I want to wait and get it organized and possibly stronger.

Right now I'm still really excited about school being over. I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.

2 years...

Last Saturday was 2 years for me and Casey. 2 years! I never would of thought that would be possible. But I love him. I love him so much.

For his present I made an awesome picture frame/shadow box (inspired by miranda)

Here's the before:

It took me awhile to figure out what I was going to make him. Lately I've been having a craftster block. It's like writer's block but for crafty people. After talking to Miranda and getting inspired by all the cute little tings she's made or is making I went with the frame. Casey loves to hang pictures of us and place little things on his shelves.

Here's the after:

I was also able to make him a card out of the leftover supplies. It's really simple but meaningful.

Here's a close-up of the front:

where has the time gone?

I can't believe how long it has been since I've typed something. But no worries I will definitely make up for it because a lot has happened the past 3 weeks. I'm going to post different ones so it won't be a massive post that no one will read. Expect to see a lot of updates in the coming week.
