1st game

Our new softball season just started.  Today was the first game...WE WON!!! by a lot.  I don't know what the final score was, but it was a lot.  I was in the outfield...I'm not so good in the outfield, it's hard for me to see where the ball is going to go, plus it gives me too much time to think about where the ball is going to go.  And my batting was okay, but not great.  However my running was awesome, everyone said they never saw me run so fast.  One of the other girls, Ashley, was hurt.  She didn't feel like running so I ran every time for her, and for me.  It was exhausting.  But lots of fun.  On one of the plays I ran from first to third.  As I was turning second I looked to see where the ball was, and kept going because I didn't hear anyone say "STAY!" so I kept going...apparently Travis was doing the hand signals for stay, but When I run I'm not really looking...So when I got to third I had to slide.  It's funny that everyone is always like "WOW, I can't believe you did that" because for me it's second nature, I really don't think about it.  But guess what! or yes, I got hurt.  Just as my knees were starting to clear up, I go and hurt them again.  Oh well...I had lots of fun.  I love softball.

Nails

So my friend Dia is in cosmetology school.  And It's that time of year when i get my nails done!  Dia told me to go to the school, because it would be really cheap.  So I did.  Definitely  not what I'm used to, but not a horrible job.  I still need to file them to my liking, and since my nails will be painted for the rest of the holiday season, i don't really care about the imperfections.  They tried to do Halloween designs, but they haven't really learned the art of nail painting, so i just had flowers done, but overall it came out pretty good.

The Haps

The past few weeks have been a little bit of a blur, but in a good way.

Work has been really good, the managers are trying to create a position just for me, when or whether it will happen is still up in the air.  Since the economy is really low, the corporate office is doing a huge push on Marketing.  So Dean, my general manager, gave a task to each of the managers, and one to me.  Then Parker, one of the managers that I worked with when I was a manager, and a good friend of mine, knows how much I enjoy doing this kind of work, so he asked if I wanted to do his task.  I enjoy doing it, plus it gives me more hours so I said yes.  Then Parker had told the other managers if they wanted my help to ask.  So I ended up doing all of the marketing work.  I'm really enjoying it, it's a lot of hard work, deadlines, stressful, but at the end of each day I feel like I'm doing something.  If things keep going well, they want me to become the banquet coordinator, but that's only if there are enough banquets for me to coordinate.

I'm still looking for other jobs, Toria sent me a lead on this company that seems like a great environment, which is one of my top priorities.  However, didn't really seem like they have any openings in my location, at least right now.  I'm still looking, and applying.  And I have a friend that is a manager at this member's only bar in downtown Fullerton.  I was thinking I would bartend there in my free time and make some good money, and hopefully make some useful contacts.  I'm doing fine at my job, so I can take my time and wait for my perfect job to come along.

School starts in like two weeks, I'm excited and nervous.  

Our new softball season starts this week, however our first game is a bye. I started practicing pitching yesterday, it took me awhile to get my groove.  But I think with a  little more practice I'll be able to figure it out, and keep it.

This past week I've been watching baseball with the guys, It's fun going out to watch the games, because everyone around you gets so excited by the game.  You have random people talking about it all, and high fiving, and jumping up and down, it's hard not to get excited.

So it's been a busy week, and looks like next week will be the same, I can't wait!

Hair

Guess what!?! surprise surprise, I changed my hair!

So far everyone loves it.  They all say I look better in darker hair then lighter...what do you think?
