New Girl on the Job

Hi everybody!! I hope everybody is happy the week is more than halfway over! I always like to think that the week is on a downward path after Wednesday. Nerd Alert! I just made this bell curve so you could have a visual of what I mean. As you all know I started my new job as a revenue accountant at the Girl Scouts of Northern California on Monday. The office is about 30 miles from my house which in a "normal" commute time takes me about 45-50 minutes. However, Monday morning there was construction on one of the freeways and it took me an hour and half!!! I was so mad and I ended up being late...

Good Week...

This has been one of the best weeks I have had in a while. Last Friday, I got a call that I was offered a job as a revenue accountant for the Girl Scouts of Northern California! This was the best news I had heard in so long! They had to do a credit score check, background check, and reference check before the position was completely mine but everything came back good and I start Monday!Earlier in the week, we saw The Adjustment Bureau. I didn't really know what it was suppose to be about before we watched but I really enjoyed it. I love Matt Damon and Emily Blunt is so adorable. She makes me...

Me On the Map!

One of my favorite bloggers is having a link-up! Michelle at a little bit of this & that created a fun link up to show off where you live! It is such a great idea. Click on the button to join the fun! I live in Martinez, California. It is a relatively small town about 30 miles northeast of San Francisco. I have lived here my whole life except when I went to college in Los Angeles. There really isn't much to do here. Basically everything (fun) is in the neighboring cities. I didn't even go to the high school in Martinez, I went to the one in the next town over thanks to the...

Guilty Pleasure: Laguna Beach

I have a ton of guilty pleasures. Most of them are the shows I watch. There are a ton that I watch currently but one of my favorite "old" guilty pleasures is Laguna Beach. I have to admit that I actually own season 1 & 2 on DVD. It is so fun seeing how "LC" grew up to become Lauren. It actually blows my mind that Stephen is an actor now on One Tree Hill! I was always rooting for the two of them to be together. But I guess they were better off not being together so they could each pursue something else. I love how the editors would edit the scenes to make us think certain things were going...

Fringe & Rhinestones Can Only Mean One Thing...

Dancing With the Stars is Back! This is seriously one of my favorite shows. Each season I usually have a celebrity that I like so I root for them but this season there isn't really anybody I am a huge fan of. I also like certain pros more than others so I sometimes I will vote for the pro more than the celebrity. Here are five of my favorites celeb-pro dances in no particular order. For all the pairings I included here I like most of their performances. It was hard to pick just five but these are some of the best in my opinion. If you love DWTS and you haven't already done so, after...

Prom Memories

I am volunteering again for the Princess Project today and whenever I'm there I am always reminded of my prom. In my high school we had Junior Prom and then Senior Ball. I really wasn't planning on going to the Junior Prom but at the last minute my friends persuade me to go. So since it was last minute I had no date and no real dress. All my friends had dates and nice dresses. The only formal dress I had in my closet was the bridesmaid dress I wore for my sister's wedding (it wasn't as bad as it sounds). I remember the day of the prom because I really didn't want to go not because I didn't...

Travel Etiquette

The WSJ had a fun article about travel etiquette titled, "So Who Gets the Armrest?" This fun graphic shows 3 situations you are likely to find yourself in while on a plane. Some of the "experts" responses are really interesting and kinda weird. Here is my opinion on each one:Armrests - if you sit in the middle then you should really get both. If I sit in the middle I try to claim at least one because once I was on a flight where I didn't have one have and I was very uncomfortable luckily it was a short flight. If I sit on the aisle or by the window I will usually lean away from the...
