Too long..

It's been forever since I've posted anything, and a lot has happened!

For starters, I completed school for dental assisting! I did my internship and now I am job hunting. I love everything about it. (Especially extractions and blood!) lol It's been really tough though trying to find a practice that is willing to take on a new grad to work for them. Most places say "must have 2-5 years experience", which really makes it hard. How am I supposed to get the experience they need if most people wont hire a new grad? But, I have had quite a few places say that they are willing to hire people that are new to the field and willing to train if needed, so that is very good for me! I have went on a few working interviews recently and they all went really well I think so now I wait..(ahh, it's the worst part of it all) Hopefully I will hear back from one of them soon! :)..I'm going stir crazy without a job..haha

Also, we got a new puppy about 4 or 5 months ago. Her name is Roxy and she is a chihuahua/pug mix..the cutest little thing ever! At first, I didn't know how I felt about her honestly..I mean, she was absolutely adorable but she was definitely a normal hyper puppy. We couldn't walk around the house without her dragging behind biting our pants legs..lol and no one ever had a matching pair of shoes. (She has hiding places all over the house.) BUT! She has really calmed down a lot and of course she is still very playful but you can tell she is growing out of the puppy stage. She is the sweetest thing now. :) 

I no longer watch Olivia, but my mom does, so I still get to see her a lot. :) She has grown up so much! She's starting her terrible two's way too early if you ask me..lol but I love her just the same, with or without her little attitude. :)

I am really going to try and keep my posts up to date. It seems like every time I turn around I am messing something up on my lap top but I should be getting that fixed next week. 

 

Thanks for reading! :)

Until next time..

Due for a catch up!

Hey guys! My lap top freaked out so I haven't been able to blog lately, but I sure have missed it! A lot has happened since I last posted so I figured I'd ramble about everything. :)

First of all, my best friend, Brittley, moved away to Tyler, TX a couple weeks ago. :( I am happy for her but definitely sad for me. She moved to be closer to her partner's family and to settle down. I miss her like crazy already! I still talk to her a lot and now when she calls it's an hour and a half conversation versus the 15 minute ones we used to have, ha. But good news is that she went down there with no job and now has 2. Way to go Britt! 

Now, I am not sure if I have mentioned this or not, but I have a dog named Hallie and two Russian Dwarf Hamsters, Dallas and Dublin.  Dublin got sick and I had to take him to the vet.  He had a bacterial infection on his tummy and I had to spend $150 on meds and everything but he is doing better now! :) Here's a picture of my boy..

Hallie, my dog, started this hacking noise yesterday and it really scared me because not only was I worried about her being sick but I also don't really have the extra money to spend on yet another vet bill in the same month. But, she has really bad allergies and thankfully that's all it was. A half of an allergy pill and she is all better! :)

Also, Olivia, the little girl that I watch, just had her 1st birthday! :) She is growing up so fast. I love her like she is mine and it makes me sad how big she is getting..lol I just want her to stay a baby forever!

There she is at about 8 months. :)

School will be in January, I hope! But, I will def keep everyone up to speed about all that later!  
Everyone have a happy and safe Thanksgiving!!!!

Birthday fun!

Today is Hallie's birthday! (and yes, her actual real birthday) People always ask me "How do you know her real birthday?" I've had her since she was a puppy, and I have her records. Anyways, every year on her birthday, I take her to Petco and we get the number of presents for her age. She turned 5 today, so she got 5 presents! :) I'm not sure what I will do once she turns like 15..lol maybe get her a box of 15 bones or something. But for now, that's how we are doing it and always have. I have thrown her a birthday party too and all that but I honestly didn't have time this year. But, she LOVES the store! She actually got more than 5 things because her clothes were on clearance. So she got a green dress, a green and brown hoodie that says "alpha dog", 2 different kinds of treats, a new rope, and 2 new squeak toys. She is spoiled rotten, lol.

Anyways, just thought I would update everyone on her bday, she had lots of fun!! I will post pictures later of her in her new clothes! :)

Fab Faves

Okay so, I figured I would blog about some of my all time favorite things so that everyone can get to know me a little better. :)

My favorite app for my HTC EVO would have to be...


TWI (Texting While Intoxicated)

When I am just sitting here with nothing to do, I read TWI and it always makes me laugh! Some of the things on there are completely stupid and not worth reading and then others are hilarious! In case you have never heard of this app, let me explain.. People send in drunk text messages or picture mail that they find in their phones or people send to them. Ever having a bad day? get this app! :)

My favorite quote..



I absolutely love this quote because it is soo true.  I have part of it tattooed on the lower right side of my back. (My right love handle, if you will) ;)



My favorite hobby..




collecting shot glasses. This past Christmas my sister got me this really cool set of them that had my favorite celebrity of all time on them.  Which leads me to my next fav..

Favorite celeb...


The beautiful Marilyn Monroe
I probably have 20 pictures of her and 30 different random things with her on them..I know it's a bit much but in my opinion, she is very inspiring. lol

My favorite color..


:) Pink

and I'll close with my favorite person in the whole world (other than family and friends of course, they already know they're my faves!)....


Tori, my girlfriend. She's definitely a big part of it all!

What are some of your favorite things? Can't wait to hear!

It's Ok..

IT'S OK..

to be annoyed by the fact that the only time you cannot fall asleep is when you have to get up in the morning.

to have a new found addiction to sunflower seeds.

to heytell my sister everytime I have a question about blogging. :)

to get so sad when your out with friends and your phone dies even though its too late for people to be calling you anyways.

to play games on your facebook more than you actually check it.

What I'm Loving Wednesday!

Today I'm linking up with Jamie

IM LOVING  that it is almost Friday.

IM LOVING that I found one of my favorite shirts that I haven't been able to find in weeks.

IM LOVING that my sister came to spend the day with me.

IM LOVING that I only have 2 weeks and 2 days until my Kentucky trip!

IM LOVING that my fur baby is going to be 5 years old next week. :)

In Tyler for the weekend!

So yesterday was my girlfriend Tori's birthday.  She is from Tyler, Tx so she wanted to go out there for the weekend and hang out with her friends and old roommates.  We headed out Friday afternoon and when we got there some of her friends couldn't make it out with us, but we still had a lot of fun!

We went to a club called Decisions that night with some friends and danced and had a good time.  And of course after a long night of that much fun we had to go eat at like 4 in the morning :)

Saturday we got up and went to her friend's wedding reception which was pretty cool. Very pretty too! They were so happy and so in love!

Me and Tori at the reception

So saturday night we were supposed to go out again for her birthday to a bar called Outlaws.  But, still recovering from the night before, we decided to stay in and watch movies.  If you want to see a really good funny movie you should see

Hall Pass :)

Definitely worth watching!  We woke up Sunday morning and went to this AMAZING frozen custard shop called Andy's and almost made ourselves sick, haha!

I did have a lot of fun but I can say that I am very happy to be back.  Hallie Jo missed us so much.  My dad said that she was moping around the whole time we were gone. :( poor baby!


Miss Hallie <3

It's always nice to get away from your everyday life for a few days every once in a while, so I did enjoy it! But, like I said before, I can't stay away too long.  I am so glad to be back! Hope everyone had a fabulous weekend as well!
