Bloggy Award! & Other Updates :) 01/31/2010
It is my pleasure to receive this Bloggy Award from Wife of a Sailor, one of my many mil friends on Twitter! It's the first award I've ever gotten on my site and I'm very excited about it! Before I express who I've nominated, I'd like to say a few updates, since it's been a while since I've been here! 1) I began my new job at a law firm last Monday, and it's been...well, not easy. It's my first new job in 2 years and is so far the only job I really have cared about because how I do here can determine basically the rest of my life (if and where I attend law school, if I'll be working there later, etc.), so it's been challenging but I've enjoyed it. 2) Some of the craziness from my last post has died down, and I think things will be good for us this year. We have a lot of growing up to do and big decisions have yet to be made about A LOT in our lives, but I think this year will be a good one. :) 3) I got a new fishy! His name is Pauly and he's a betta. He's pretty neat. You might think it's kind of lame for me to brag about owning a fish, but most of the pets I had as a kid I didn't take care of; my mother was the pet caregiver. So having him is going to be fun! I have his fish bowl set up just perfectly and will transport him back into it tonight (his water needs to regulate to room temp. again, since I came back to my apartment at school. And now, for my award: Rules: 1. Thank the person who gave you the award. 2. Paste the award on your blog. 3. Link the person who nominated you for the award. 4. Tell 7 interesting things about yourself. -I love to travel, and the last country I traveled to was Ecuador. I had such an amazing time there and met people from around the world! I miss being there and wish I could go back someday. -Most of my family is out of the country; my mom is from Canada, and so whenever we want to see family we travel there! -A lot of people I know think tapioca pudding is gross, but I love it! -My boyfriend and I met in church in Spring 2006, but were so shy around each other we never really spoke for two years. -Even though I'm in the pre-law fraternity at school (and on the e-board!), I've never taken a pre-law class at my university. I've focused mainly on what I'm interested in - political science - and think sometimes people stress out a little too much about being "pre-law." College goes by quick, so why try law school stuff before you're even in law school? -I have no idea where I'll be at in a year's time. It's safe to say I'll still live in St. Louis, but job-wise I have no idea, nor am I completely sure about law school. I do know, however, that if the conference bid I am helping out with at school for a housing conference goes through, next Feb. we'll be hosting that on campus. -I'm left-handed. Not a lot of people I know are, and one thing that I found is really strange is many of the staff at the law school library I work at on campus are also left-handed. 5. Nominate 7 bloggers or less. I nominate...
