stuff

wow. alot has happened during my month long disappearence from posting....where do i start? ok, so my accounting background will come out for just a moment while i list the new stuff in chronological order...then i'll explain a little.

1. Got a perm.
2. Went to Boston
3. Bought Adobe creative suite (yes!-student discounts rock!)
4. Got a new job.

ya, so how many of you can say you had a perm in kindergarden!?!? ya, that's right, i can. i've had a perm in my hair from kindergarden through age 15. i took a break from perms until now....10 years i've given my hair to revive itself....now it's back to torturing it... i really do like it though...now. it was a little too 80's at first but it's calmed down a lot since...what do you think?

We visited some friends in Boston, MA. It was sooo much fun! We took a bus (4 hour trip) to New York too. Out of the two, I liked Boston better. I noticed that people dress more formally on the east coast....it was weird. I hardly ever saw a person in jeans without some other piece to dress it up a bit and I never saw t-shirt layering happening....hmmm.

I'm sooo excited about getting Adobe creative suite!! It's normally a $1,200 program and I got it for $400!! Now I can do my homework for my digital photography and design fundamentals classes on illustrator and photoshop from home!

and last, but not least...I got a new job. I'm not exactly sure what my title is yet but no matter....i'll be doing design stuff for my church. i'm excited about it because i really enjoy playing on the computer designing logos and stuff and now i can get paid to do it! and it will be a nice change from accounting stuff for sure! my first project is updating the website and i get to work with my husband on that since he's the webmaster for new heights. fun, fun, fun!!

there's your quick overview of this past month!

police
...this was just funny...environmental police in a city where people put their garbage out on the street in trash bags in stead of garbage cans....AND it's a huge, gas gusling truck!! too funny.
