Day 18 – Your favorite birthday

I think one of my favorite birthdays was when Kim threw a surprise party for me at Rosa's a few years ago. I remember that was the week Chris and I broke up and Kim nicely planned a little get together for me. :) Needless to say, I was extremely surprised. That's why she's one of my best friends!! She makes me smile. :)

Another one of my favorites was obviously my 21st birthday. GOOD TIMES. That's all I've gotta say. If you were there, you were present for all the crazy shenanigans.

Dallas Cowboys...Finally a time for change

It's about time Jerry Jones got rid of Wade Phillips. Wade is too passive of a coach and always looks so confused anytime his team does anything wrong. His press conferences are what entertain me the most though. He doesn't sound all that intelligent when speaking to the media.

But on another note, the Cowboys have some extremely talented players... it's just that their team isn't "gellin'." It also doesn't help that Romo is out for the rest of the season and Kitna is rusty. The man hasn't played in ball game in I don't even know how long and now he's expected to play at the same level as Romo. Rough.

Regardless, I'm still a Witten and Barber fan. :) They have always been my favorite.. more so than Romo.

I just realized I never finished this post that I originally wrote last week. With Garrett taking over the Cowboys, let's see how they do today...

Day 17 – Your favorite memory?

It's hard to just pick one memory because really, there are just so many fantastic memories that I have!

More recently, this past weekend was a blast. The TCU game was everything and more! I'm so proud of my team, especially because I was concerned that it was going to be a close game. I'm glad I recorded that haha.

But in short, my TCU years have been fantastic. Thanks to band and Tau Beta Sigma, I had a very fulfilling college experience. Just like my high school days, band really helped me make a ton of friends and today, those friends are probably still my closest ones! I'm impressed with the people I'm still able to keep up with from high school and middle school. I take pride in the fact that I'm a social butterfly. :)

Happy Hump Day!

I'm halfway through my first week at GM Financial! I love it. I'm always excited to get up and go to work and see what each day brings. I cranked out two articles today--to the surprise of my co-workers. I guess I'm just used to working fast and thinking on my feet.

My boss also told me that her boss--the VP of our division--wants me to become their in-house MS Powerpoint expert. Now, my Powerpoint skills are mediocre, but I'll have to start cranking out detailed financial reports and complicated looking graphs and charts. So yes, I need to brush up on my skills. They want to send me to training... that should be interesting. It's hard to find a training class that isn't just teaching creative aspects of Powerpoint. My boss wants me to take a business-centric course. I hope I can find one.

In other news, my badge picture turned out nice! It's much better than what my Alcon badge looked like, ha.

I finally feel like a permanent employee. It's a great feeling. :) I feel so accomplished!

Day 16 – Your first kiss

Hahahaha. I nearly died laughing when I saw this one. Well, I was first kissed by a boy in kindergarten by Matt Lindeman. We were convinced at that young age that we were going to get married. Good times.

But seriously, my first "real" kiss took place in 8th grade with the oh so wonderful Sean Quillman... in a tent. Sean had those "trendy" bring blonde highlights at the time. Ha. I hope JESSIE WANG reads this lol. Impressively, that boy and I dated for like 6 months, which is nearly a lifetime in middle school. Oh wow, 8th grade was also when I was a cheerleader. Ha, such a long time ago.

Day 15 – Your dreams

I have had some CRAZY dreams over the last couple days... two of which have been nightmares and I usually don't have nightmares! One was of Drew awkwardly breaking up with me because I'm Asian (he laughed when I told him this) and the other was being held hostage with other people in a house and some guy going on a shooting rampage.

Not pleasant, to say the least.
