Can't really think of an exciting title so I'll just leave it at that. So what have I been up to? Not a whole lot other than work. It's a good thing I love my job! Our third store opened last week and so far so good! I'm happy to finally be in a permanent place. All our new partners are awesome and I think we are going to have a kick-ass store!
So the other night I am in my room and glance down at my phone and what do i see!? It is roaming....ROAMING! I DO NOT live out in the middle of no where... there's a walmart, starbucks, lowes and other various businesses all w/in a half a mile of my home...so why am I not getting any signal? It's odd too b/c I've lived here now for 6 weeks and I haven't had this problem until the other day. It's quite frustrating. Tomorrow I will be going to the Sprint Store to resolve this.
What else...hmmm. Talked to Neil the other day. Yay! I miss him. Got a wedding invitation in the mail from my old roomie Julie (aka Teddy)! Yay for her and Ben getting married!
One more thing. I joined myspace the other day. Just like facebook it is pretty addicting. Originally I was only going to accept people who were actually my friends but since I don't know anyone up here I figured I'd accept anyone who wants to be my "friend". Everytime I check it I have new friend requests and new messages from people. I'm pretty hesitant to actually meet someone from the internet though...who knows....we'll see.
That's all for now....peace

Hiya
Just listening to some music and I thought I'd update. I'm listening to Howie Day right now. There's something about his voice that I love. Him and Coldplay are in heavy rotation in my itunes right now.
Anyway, what's new? Had two days off in a row again so I went back to Wlaf and took care of some apartment stuff and visited w/my friends of course! I really miss being around them. Chatted w/Lexie while I did some apartment stuff then we went to dinner w/Hill and Becky. It was good times just hanging out.
After that I went home to see my family and my best friend Kel. Had a really great time at home seeing all of them. It was pretty cool Kelly and I sat outside on Friday night talking about life until 2 a.m. Having conversations about life every so often w/someone important to you is nice. It was a good convo. At one point we were talking about highschool which got me thinking that she's the person I've been friends w/the longest since moving to IN. We've been friends for 8 years now. That's pretty awesome. I'm glad we got to hangout kel! Hope everything w/your knee is alright though!
So recently it seems like everyone is trying to set me up. I say bring it on! A different date every night until I find the right one!
Finally a shout out to a certain someone for making progess w/her crush today! I am definitely a smidge jealous b/c he sounds like a super great person from what I've heard.
Cheers

I'm in LOVE
I'm in love with Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. Up here in michiana they rerun Oprah episodes at night which is great. I can catch them at night if I miss oprah during the daytime. Anyway, tonight they re-aired the episode where tom cruise acts like a freak on national television. Well that's what I thought until I actually saw the episode. He's not a freak....he's totally in love! Hillary and Alexa saw the original airing and said that Tom and Katie's love for each other was infectious. I'll admit I was like "um ok suuuree." But they were right, it is completely infectous. It made me feel good just watching them. Tom talks about how he is a romantic and likes taking the woman he loves on the back of his motorcycle, scuba diving, and of course showering her with flowers. I want that! Well that's about it..... Cheers

hello my friends!
I truly apologize to all those who have visited my blog 67.843 times in the past few weeks only to see I haven't updated since my hot tamale incident. Well I've been away laid up in the hospital.... turns out my hot tamale situation got much, much worse! Just kidding, I've actually just been busy w/stuff and haven't really thought about blogging. Well anyway since I've last blogged I've moved away! I left the place I've spent the past five years of my life, my comfort zone, to come to a new place where I really don't know anyone or much about the area! The first night here I was like WTF did I just do!? But things got much better the next day. My job at a certain coffee shop has brought me here. I wanted a new experience w/work and in life and felt this was the time to do it.
So here I am almost a week later and as of right now things are good, no major complaints. Everyone up here is really nice and have made me feel very welcome. Our new store is awesome! So big and has all this cool stuff! My apartment is pretty sweet too...JUST EMPTY! Once I get all my stuff up here it'll be a nice place. This is my first time living alone and I think i'll like it but miss having someone to talk with or just chill with...Must find a boyfriend (and some friends, of course)! Lexie you've been a great roomie this past year, I hope I was too!
My sister and I decided that when she comes up to visit me we are going to become fat asses. I live by sooo many places we love to eat. We were joking that when mom asks us what we did all we'll say is "well we ate, then went to the store, then ate, then couldn't find anything else to do so we went and ate some more" I won't let that happen! I'm gonna buy a bike and become a biker!
So friends and family, you all mean way more to me than you'll ever know! Just b/c we are all further apart now doesn't mean that I don't think about you. Ma, pa, sis and bro come visit me whenever, love you! My friends at the buck, old and new, you all have been the most invovled in my life this past year and mean so much to me! You are ALL welcome to come visit whenever, and BETTER come visit as I plan on visiting you guys whenever I get the chance! All my friends who live in some place other than indiana I miss you but my move doesnt really have any affect on you since we are already separated. My best friends, Kelly, Suz, and Kate we don't talk nearly as often as we used to or see eachoter but I think about you all everyday! Come visit me and I plan to come visit you all in your respective new places!
Side Note: I am listening to the new Coldplay cd for free right now and it is pretty flipping good! check it out.
well time to go watch a movie or read...until next time cheers!

Never Again!
Never again will I eat a 1/2 pound box of the hot tamale candies over the course of two days! Last Friday Lexie, Jenny, and I rented the movie "Saved". (Lexie and I had already seen it but we really liked it so we were up for seeing it again) While at Blockbuster I decided I wanted some candy and got some Hot Tamales b/c I hadn't had them in years and they were calling my name.... "Christina! EAT US! Lets have a Fiesta!" So anway we are watching Saved and I'm chowing down on my hot tamales and some pizza with lots of spices. IF only I knew what those Hot Tamales had planned for me.....
So now it's Saturday and I had to work that night, so I just sat on my ass all afternoon eating the rest of my hot tamales. I can eat about 10 at a time before I have to take a lil break, but I'm a trooper so I kept eating. By now the box is about 2/3 of the way gone......about 9 or so got spilled at Jenny's but I've eaten every other one. The rest of my Saturday went like this.... Go to work. Come home. Eat hot tamales. Go to bed.
Sunday-- Get up for work. Work. About 6 hours into my shift my mouth is starting to feel really weird......it hurts and is F-ing w/my ear, nose and throat! "I'm like what the biff is going on here!?" I think about it for a few and then realize it's the damn tamales. I should have realized this would happen... I can only chew a piece of cinnamon gum for like 5.8 seconds before it starts to irrate my mouth. Anyway, I get home and my sister and I decided to go get some mexican food! I say Bring on the spiceyness! I can handle it....Turns out I couldn't! I messed up my mouth real bad!
Monday...It's a good thing all I had to do that day was read b/c it hurt to talk. The hot Tamales had F-ed w/my mouth big time! Sorry for all the complaining I did that day...
Anyway, here I am a week later and my mouth is still recovering. It's basically better but I've definitely learned my lesson. It's not wise to eat a 1/2 pound box of hot tamales (six servings according to the box which Alexa read) in the course of 24 hours. It's also not a good idea to go pig out on chips and salsa when you have a mouth that's already irrated from hot things. I think I remember now why I hadn't had hot tamales in years... It's time for another 3-5 year break.

"Boys! Sometimes a girl just needs one"
Sing it Brit! I need a boy real bad. I want a guy to take me out on dates... I want a guy to make out with (the doorway just isn't cutting it anymore {only like 2 people at most will even understand that comment, but it will be funny to them!})... I want to be wooed! I haven't been on a date since like early last fall! WTF? I. AM. GREAT. Boys should be lining up to ask me out!! Wow, that sounds pretty full of myself, but hey it is the gosh dang truth! It's sad, I haven't even met any new guys in a LONG time to even form any real crushes on. I do however have my work crush. We all have that one customer, or in some cases there's some of us (ahem, Alexa) who have like 15.798998 customer crushes. Since my work crush is a crush from afar nothing will ever happen....sigh! I get all flustered and girly in front of him and feel like I'm making an idiot out of myself, but it's kinda fun. I guess I have another crush that I've had for over a year now, but he lives far far away...booo. So maybe another positive thing about moving is a whole new city of guys! I feel like I've met every guy there is to meet here...well not really, but still. Anyway, I'm gonna go listen to some Britney Spears!
PEACE

My ultimate fantasy was realized the other day...
The other day I am thinking to myself "I want a diet coke". For those of you who don't know I love me some DC. Anyway, I have my window wide open and happen to glance out it while I am picking some money off the floor. What do I see...? A .COKE. TRUCK! What am I wearing? My awesome coca cola shirt! So i go down the stairs to the coke machine and there rolling in a whole bunch of coke products is the DIET COKE MAN! Remember the diet coke commercial from the mid/late 90's where all the office women got all googly-eyed when the hot diet coke guy made the deliveries? well... IT WAS THAT GUY! So he says "hey" to me in a real sexy way and then says that my coke t-shirt is pretty hot. He throws down his dolly of Coke bottles, picks me up and we drove off in the coke truck into the sunset! HA no actually that did not happen. That's what I was hoping for as i walked down the stairs and saw a heavy set guy instead......I was shocked back to reality real quick. Coca Cola rules!
