hello 2009

Well well well, would you look at that! Its 2009 already! It feels so weird for it to finally be 2009 because I'm graduating COLLEGE in 2009. I just applied for graduation a few days ago. How old does that make me feel? Yikes! I feel like it was just yesterday I graduated high school! Which now, Rachel is doing this year which also makes me feel old.

The last couple of months have been busy ones... December was all about finals and of course, our carribbean vacation over christmas! It was beautiful (even when it rained) and warm, which of course I loved because I hate the cold. It was so relaxing not to have to think or worry about school or work and just be. And of course the beaches helped too. I would love to go back for the rest of the cold season here and just work down in the carribbean. My dad wants to become part of the bahamian navy so maybe I'll go down there with him and work at one of the bars. Wouldn't that be the life?

Steve and I spent new years at the golf course where they had a private shin-dig for all of the employees and their guests. It was the first new year's I have spent without the family. I bartended with a couple of my friends from work and it was an all-around good time. Steve and I also had our christmas on New Year's because I was in Puerto Rico on Christmas. I got him season 1 on dvd of one of his favorite tv shows, the Sarah Connor Chronicles, the complete Batman Animated Series (he loves batman) and a pair of drum sticks that I had engraved with his bands name. My christmas gift from him was kind of a combined christmas/late birthday gift. He gave me pearl earrings, a pearl necklace, and then hes going to replace the stock radio in my car with a nicer 6-cd changer that will be up front rather than in the trunk, which I am uber-excited about.

Other than work, school, family and steve, nothing else is really going on- as you see I lead a very exciting life.. haha.

Hope everyone's new years went well and they're enjoying the start of 2009 so far!
