Corona

    Hello again. So, I've looked at some of my friends from college xanga sites. Their last entries mostly take place in 2008. I know everyone has facebook now, but come on guys. We don't put very much on facebook and I want to know how everyone is doing.
    Anyway, I went out with friends from work tonight to Friday's. We usually go every other Friday. We had fun. I love going out with them because we never run out of things to talk about or stories to tell. Of course, I had my usual two Coronas, which is why this entry is titled so. I am actually not yet done dogsitting because my aunt and uncle flew into the States today and they should be back by midnight tonight. I am sad to be leaving for many reasons. One, their house is amazing close to work (only 30 minutes away!). Two, because Shadow is the coolest and we get along so well! And three because staying at their house is so fun! I sleep in the most comfortable bed ever! I love being here just Shadow and I because the house is so big and roomy : )
   So, I get to go home tomorrow and sleep in my own bed for the first time in 11 days. I have been dogsitting/catsitting for almost 6 weeks in a row now. I haven't slept in my own bed for two nights in a row in more than 6 weeks. I'm okay with that because I've had a blast, but I am so glad to be going home. I miss hanging out with my dad and watching our shows every night. I miss cooking dinner or making cookies and I also miss going tanning with my dad! We would always find an excuse to get out of the house by tanning or going grocery shopping. I guess, I'm a dork. I like hanging out with my family. Speaking of which, I have plans with my mother on Sunday after church and I'm uber excited. We haven't hung out in a long time. And I should probably talk to my brother about going to see a movie sometime soon. We went to go see Remember Me a couple of Sundays ago. It was SOOOO good, but with the worst ending. I won't ever watch it again, but I really really liked it.
    I guess I should probably stop now because holy crow I've written a freakin' novel. I am going to go read more of the vampire series my friend Tiffany got me hooked on. PS it's not twilight. Been there, done that. Alright everyone, loves and hugs! Have a great weekend! God bless, Karen
   PSS Criminal Minds is on in the background. Amazing show! It makes me want to pursue my passion of being a forensic psychologist. : )

I Need You Now

   Hey! So, I have not been on here in FOREVER! It's been two years at least! I am currently working at Biolife Plasma Center in GR. My last job at Track, I was promoted after two months, then laid off two months after that. Now, I do believe, they have about 5 people (total) working for the company. Anyway, my job a biolife is alright. I enjoy doing my job (taking donor's vitals and poking their fingers), but there are other things about my job that I don't enjoy too much. No details about that, cause once I start I won't stop.
   Let's see, I am still single, I am looking for another job because I desperately miss doing office work (miss it like CRAZY!). I am living at home with my dad so I can afford to pay back my just under $100,000 worth of school loans. Someday I will be able to make it on my own, but that would take someone actually giving me a chance at an intelligent person's job! I have been reading through my past blogs and holy crow! I can't believe how much I don't remember about my college years. Sad they are over. But I feel like I've changed so much since then. I still talk to Joy, she's amazing! She actually went with my mom and I to meet the little boy I donated bone marrow to three years ago this month! He is so adorable! My new little man : ) Well, I'm pretty sure that's enough for today. I plan on blogging again at least weekly. I miss it. I think it made me less crazy when I could just get everything out on here instead of letting it stew in my head.
  Wonderful to speak to all of you again. I still love the Lord Jesus with all my heart. I'm actually teaching Sunday School at my home church so all the kids can love Him too! Anyway, I better get going. This is my last night dogsitting for my aunt and uncle, so I have to clean. Plus, I have to work tomorrow. Well, I'm out! God Bless you all, Kareby

My New Job

Well hello again everyone! I am graduated from college and I'm working at my first full time (permanent) grown up job! I am a receptionist/administrative assistant at Track Corporation. I like my job (though it can get pretty boring sometimes) and I'm excited to finally have a job! I've been looking for a job for three months now and I got this one last week! I started on Monday and so far its been crazy! I really like it, but I know I'm going to get stressed out eventually. But you know what? If I didn't get stressed out about work sometimes, my life would be so boring. And you know what else? I'm happy. Life is good. God is good. God bless, Karen

Copperboom!

Well, another day in the summer. It has been dreary the past couple of days with rain and cooler weather and I love it! I love rain, and I love walking around in the rain, and the cooler weather has been great. It was only hot for about one day and it was not fun. I'm not a big fan of being hot, I really like being cold, so the past two days have been wonderful! I am still working at school as an admin assistant for now. I'm still looking for another job and hopefully one where I can get office experience! I was thinking last night and I really think that I want to be a cop. At least until I get my masters in criminal justice then I would like to be a detective. This would help a lot and it wouldn't be bad. I mean, it really sounds like fun to me. Well, I just finished applying for another job. This one is for an Office Assistant for the Grand Rapids Police Department. That wouldn't be so bad. Paying off school and then when I'm done I can go get my masters in Criminal Justice. That would be awesome! Oh yeah! Anyway, I better get going. Later ya'll!

Nick & Nora/Sid & Nancy

My title on here, if anyone was wondering is the title of a Gilmore Girls episode (my favorite tv show). Anyway, I think I am getting sick. My throat isn't exactly sore, its just tightened up a little and I just know that I am getting sick. I have been extremely tired the last three days and blah. But I didn't come here to complain! I came to talk about my book. I am writing a book. I have been working on it for two or three years now, and I still have a while to go. I've written many stories in my life, but I've never actually gone back and read the book and actually liked it. I love this one. I have grown so much in my writing! Anyway, I'm just excited because I've taken on a new genre, good writing! Okay well, I'm going to get back to it. Have a great day everyone!! God bless, Karen
