Another Day

Hey there...
It's been a few days since I have written so I figured it was time for a new entry. Ant got all of the paperwork figured out for his new car yesterday and it is finally on the road! yay.. we were both excited to have all the car nonsense finally figured out. So we decided to take a lil road trip to see how the car runs and took a ride up to the Garden State Plaza to visit his sister at work. It was nice.. I did not feel like sitting inside doing nothing, especially since I have off until school starts Tuesday so I have nothing to do really. We walked around the mall after we saw her and ate some pizza for dinner. All and all it was a good night. Other than that, I worked wednesday and thursday at CareOne which went fine. It is interesting how I'm not nearly as nervous as I have been at my past internships. I guess I am finally gettin some experience in the field and learning some stuff. Well I'm gonna go back to watchin my exciting episode of law and order and figure out what we are gonna make for dinner. Hope all is good with u ladies and gettin ready to start the new jobs!

Tuesday

I seem to not have the patience to think of good titles, so the day with have to do. Yesterday was such a busy day.. I worked at the nursing home from 830-4 and worked at the store 5-11 so I unfortunately did not find time to blog. My second day at the nursing home went well. I really think I am going to like it there, it will just take me some time to learn everything I need to learn. Work at the store went okay too. Nothing exciting I suppose just a long day and I came home and went right to sleep. Today I am lucky and have the day off so I am gonna lounge around. My dad is coming down to drop off Ants car so I am excited to see him,even if it is just for a few minutes. I will write more later when something more exciting happens.

Sunday

Hey there,

so far so good when it comes to blogging. I never thought i'd remember to blog 3 days in a row! haha look at me! so today has been pretty good. i have sundays off so i tend to end up spending the day sitting on my ass watching lifetime movies and just playing on the computer. Today was a little more eventful though, i atleast got to catch up with a few of u on the phone today! yayy the only one i missed was u katie, so be expecting a call from me soon! i still can't believe everything is changing so much for everyone! We are going to be all scattered across the east coast. crazy i tell ya. but i am happy for everyone, getting jobs and everything. Looks like adulthood is finally starting for us ladies.

As for me, I have my second day at my internship tomorrow. It is the old interns last day and the last day of me interning without pay so it should be interesting. I am nervous, I love learning new things, but it so hard when you seem to be the other person around you learning new things and everyone else seems to have their shit together. Plus my supervisor is going to be out of the office thursday so i have no idea what i am going to do. I think she expects me to be ready to roll on thursday on my own, however I don't think 3 days of training is enough to do things without her, regardless of how smart I am. hah anyway I'll make sure to blog tomorrow and let you know how my second day goes, after work that is since i am going to be working as an elf 5-11.
love you all!

Life as an elf

So ladies, my latest dilemma in life has been about my job as an elf at the good ole Christmas Tree Shops. For those of you reading this that have never heard of the store, it's a year round seasonal store that has all sorts of home goods, not just holiday stuff. It is kind of like a walmart or kmart, just a little fancier i suppose. anyway, i have been working this since last October and have been so undecided as to whether I wanted to keep it as a side job through grad school or if i should quit. So, as I told KJ the other day, I had decided to quit on Thursday due to the fact that I was annoyed with the job and didn't want to deal with going from one job to another all the time like I did all year last school year. However, I went in today and spoke with HR and it looks like I am going to keep the job, only work 1/2 days a week to keep myself from going absolutely crazy. Hopefully I made a good choice. I hate that in between feeling on not knowing which way to go with a decision. very confusing. anyway, that is my latest confusion in life. Other than trying to figure out when I am going to have the money and time to go to the laundramat to clean the enormous piles of laundry I have that are taking over my room. I'll write more tomorrow.. time for bed:). I'm a big fan of these blogs ladies.. just as long as we don't discontinue our emails and snail mail!

First blog

hey everyone!
this is my first blog on this website, kind of exciting! so I guess to start I will write a little information about myself. I am Nik, 21 y/o originally from Northern NJ, now living in Central NJ. I recently graduated with a bachelors degree in Social work with a minor in Health Studies. I am going back to school come September to complete a one year graduate social work program, specializing in Children and Families studies. I just started an internship at a nursing home, working as a paid social work assistant, which is nice considering it is my first job in the field since finished my degree. I have a great boyfriend, who i have been with for five months now and he is wonderful. That is pretty much my life as of this point in time. I joined this site to keep touch with my five best friends who are becoming scattered all over the east coast due to new jobs and new lives. Hopefully this site will help us all keep touch!
until my next blog..
