Midnight Ramblings

I know I haven't posted in a while. Don't worry. I've heard all about it. I just haven't felt like talking about myself and spending the time to sit down and write about what's happened since my last post. But now, since I'm bored, I think I will.

Since my last post, I've made a trip to Dallas, Texas with my club from school (Business Professionals of America) for our national competitions on June 17. I entered into the Fundamentals of Spreadsheets event, the Advanced Office Systems and Procedures event, as well as being a substitute for one of my friends in the Web Site Design Team event. I placed top 10 in everything and I placed first in Fundamentals of Spreadsheets. Yay me. I have three medals, one for placing top 10 in each event, and a huge, possibly 9"x13" plaque for coming in first place. It's nice and shiny with the exception of a few fingerprints. I also have a picture, a framed picture, of me and my friend Rebecca, whom I did the Web Site Design Team event with and, if I do say so myself, we looked smashing. All in all, I had a fantastic time. I got to ride my first ever plane which was way more exciting the second time, on the trip home, that it was on the trip there. Why? Apparently, I fell asleep during the ride to Dallas. There's a picture somewhere to prove it...

Other than that, my summer has been quite boring. I had a BBQ planned with a few of my friends but my sister sprung on me, the morning of our BBQ, at 5:30 in the morning that I had to babysit all day. I missed the BBQ except for about an hour, minus the drive up there and the drive back. I have to say, I was quite pissed but she pays my bill so... what can I say...

I did manage to finally get a job Tuesday. Where? Hy-Vee. With my friend Chase and apparently our friend Kris. I start on Monday and, honestly, I can't wait. I'll finally get some money in the bank and I can start saving up for the tattoo I've always wanted.

I go back to college on the 15th, can't wait for that either. Although I don't want to go back because I just got a job, I'm looking forward to meeting some new friends, mainly my roommates, and seeing my old friends who I have missed lots this summer.

I think that's all I feel like rambling about right now so erm... have a good night or good day and I'll be sure to keep up with my thoughts.

Aloha.
