.::. Spring Break .::.

Spring: The season after Winter and before Summer, in which vegetation begins to appear.
Break: Stop proceedings in order to have a pause or vacation








Sorry it has been so long since I have blogged, life has been crazy. Not that, that is anything new, but here a little update on the happenings of my life:
* I started my new job a little over a month ago and I'll be honest it as been really overwhelming, but I am getting a hang of it and I think it will be a great learning experience for me. I just finished our company monthly newsletter, all by myself basically and I am really proud! It was very stressful writing six articles about the mortgage industry, which I know nothing about, but it is looking good and I am happy with it! I also have had 5 of my press releases sent out on the wire and one of them was so good that IDS will be the feature article in a mortgage trade magazine... exciting I know ha! That is all for work. 
* School is going well, hard, but well! I just have to remind myself May 7th!!! 
* Yes GRADUATION is MAY 7TH!! --> Sending out graduation announcements soon, do you put a picture in these? You tell me? Peter, Britt? Haha
* Dating... all the time
* I also just found out that I got the Connie Blount (my friend from PCHS who was killed a week before Matt) scholarship to go with the Park City 5 Foundation down to Bolivia in July and help build a school. I am really really excited about that and I think it is just the thing I will need this summer after graduating.
* Even though I am busy and going all the time, my life is pretty good! I have been so blessed the last two years through all the trials and loss, but things are coming together, let's hope!

As for right now, I am on spring break! A much needed vacation... usually I go to Hawaii, but since I started a new job I didn't think I could ask for time off already, especially to go to Hawaii. So here I am in Moab with my parents having a much needed break from my crazy world. Thank you Chuds for letting us stay in your house. I wish you all a happy weekend and happy Friday, or as they say in Hawaii Aloha Friday. Miss you Meg, Corb, Indie and my baby nephew in there, wish I was there like so many past years, June will be here soon.

Miss Ali! Great to hear you are loving your new job! It sounds like your life is great! I wish you were coming to New York with me.... :( But I have a plan... Let's live in Salt Lake when I get back? Then maybe I will see your face at some point!
