Happy Leap Day

Have you ever noticed that as kids we made a big deal about leap year and that extra day that we get. But when we grow up that we don't notice it as much or lose track when leap year comes. I think that is a little fascinating. Also fascinating is that those leap year babies only get so few actual birthdays. I wonder what it would feel like to have my birthday on leap day. I would have the excuse of acting childish because I would only be still in single digits when in actuality I would be in double digits! Oh happy day! Since I am not a leap year baby I will have to get over it. Oh well. Happy leap day everyone!

The Giggles

When I get stressed, I mean really stressed, I find that I giggle. Like uncontrollably. It's only happened truly twice in my life where I started and couldn't stop for at least an hour. Today it threatened. I was giving a talk in church and I said something funny, the congregation giggled, then I started giggling back and almost couldn't stop to finish. Then the congregation started giggling more...aagh...it wouldn't stop. Luckily I finished my talk but I couldn't stop smiling through the rest of church. I suggest that when you get the giggles that you just giggle until it all comes out. Hopefully it won't be in front of a lot of people. Thought I would let you know. SMILE!

New Beginnings

Out with the old and in with the new. 2008 already brings something new for me already. Today was my last day on my old job as a circuit trainer and then on Monday I start my new job as a Physical Therapy Tech/Aide at a rehab. center. It's nice to actually have a 'real' job. Not that the old one wasn't but this new one seems to be more concrete and more reliable...more hours, regular/consistent hours (instead of sporatic), probably better pay as well (yay!). It's also nice to get a foot in the door of the career I am in school for currently. It will really look good on the resume. Wish me luck!

New Year Bash 2007

I just had one of the most fun activites for New Year's Eve in a long time. I threw a party at my house and it rocked! I had pool a table and games to play, food, others brought more food and a friend brought his PS2 and Guitar Hero to play. I've never played that game before but I really enjoyed it. When it hit midnight the crowd went wild and we honked our toy horns and clappers for a good five minutes it seemed like and then went back to the pool table and Guitar Hero. What was really exciting was that we all found out that a couple got engaged last night! Yup, good things do come in the new year! Next thing I know it was 2 in the morning and no slowing down. By that point I did have to put a damper on the situation and put a cap on the time. Another hour was good so 3 am came and went and then I crashed. Good times.

Happy New Year!

It's a small world...

What can I say more? It is a small world. I apologize now that this song will remain with you for some time, it's inevitable. I enjoy my time with my friends. Even when I might not see them ever again, or again that might seem like never. That might sound wierd but in my head it works. I'm tired...and stressed....anyways. It never ceases to amaze me that I have met many wonderful people and will continue to do so in my lifetime. I just need to keep in contact more. I love friends!

I've Been Tagged

From doing a little research I think I know what being tagged means. As I understand it I have to write down 5 things that people don't know about me (or very few people know). So here goes nothin'!

5. In the last few years I have had the urge to write a novel. I don't know about what just yet. But hopefully inspiration will hit me soon so I can go ahead and write that bestseller!

4. By the time I was 18 years old I have lived half of my life OUTSIDE the Continental United States.

3. Because I moved around so much as an Air Force Brat I attended several American schools in foreign countries. But not many can say that they started AND ended school in a different country. I started school (preschool and kindergarten) in Izmir, Turkey and graduated high school in Seoul, South Korea.

2. This one is for all those LDS people I know. I used to go help visit teach in the White House. When I was really young, my mom visit taught a person who worked there. This person didn't have much time so she had my mom come to the White House and visit teach her there. My mother would take me on the visits with her.

1. I eventually want to learn a language and go live and work in that country for awhile.

I hope you guys enjoyed this post.
