where did the time go?!

i was so bound and determined to keep a blog of my adventures and managed to only make one posting since i got here! so much has happened that it would take an endless amount of pages to catch you up - although i feel like everyone knows thanks to the wonderful facebook. regardless, i have decided to start this blog up again and to stay true to my word in keeping the world updated!

not exactly sure where i should begin... :)

i am no longer working at the daycare. i realized children and i don't exactly see eye to eye. i jumped back into waitressing at a really awesome sushi restaurant called RA (http://www.rasushi.com/) i am also working as an assistant at Colonial Life Insurance where i am also studying to get my insurance license. once i have that, i will be joining the benefit enrollment team under my current manager. i would post a link, but that website isn't as fun :)

school started again today. i am still going through UWM since i am not officially an arizona resident yet. i decided to go big or go home and am taking five classes online - macroeconomics, microeconomics, business writing, a history class and a theatre class (general ed crap). i spent a total of five hours today on homework - fun.

i have officially been living here for a little over 7 months which is really hard for me to believe! where did the time go? in that amount of time, i have been fortunate enough to travel a little bit and explore the great southwest (thanks to the amazing Derek Horne!) he was born and raised here and has the inside scoop and anything and everything fun to do. needless to say, i'm a lucky girl. so far, i have been to disneyland four times, las vegas, the grand canyon, and huntington beach twice. i was also in chicago back in october and went home to visit the wonderful wisconsin for new years... i have to admit, i DID NOT miss that cold weather!

speaking of weather, it's gorgeous here. between 65 and 70 everyday and rarely a cloud in the sky :) spring training will be starting soon and i am beyond stoked for that! i am really looking forward to friends and family coming to visit me in March and April too! because our trips are quite spontaneous, i can't say when the next adventure will be... but like they say, stay tuned!

and just a side note, in case any of you were wondering - i still represent wisconsin strong out here! still have a wisconsin license plate, still have a wisconsin accent and still wear the proper wisconsin attire :) ask anyone - i'm a midwest homer!
