I feel like it has been a while since I posted last. I’m sure that there are a lot of updates to inform you all about my personal life, but I will have to choose the most important. Here it goes:

After two years I finally got my DVD of Mr. NCC the year I was in it. IT was a blast doing that and my talent was awesome. I got three of my friends together and we performed the OK GO dance for A Million Ways. Here is a link of the video of the actual dance. It was awesome and my guys nailed it. Here is a picture of us at one of my favorite parts:

That is the matrix scene. Behind me are Monk and Collin Bourdage. Fighting me is Scotty Bush. That was amazing. If you want to see the video let me know so I can show you sometime.

Also in my life, I am making it through my second to last term of Senior year. My 12 credits are kicking my butt, but I’ll make it and then hopefully be able to coast a little next term. I am definitely excited for next year. I want to continue working at Running Unlimited, an independently owned running store in Palatine, where I am from. It looks as though that will happen! I have tried to stay connected by working select weekends and over breaks. Coming up in the next month I will be able to work the Shamrock Shuffle Expo for the store. That is always so fun. There are so many people, athletes, vendors and other stores. Plus it is in the city and I love the city! It is great experience for networking and for representing the store.

Moving on, I finally made my way to Mongolian Grill in Downtown Naperville. Last week was the experience. It was high energy and busy, just how I like it. The food was delicious! I ended up staying there from 6:30 to about 9:30. The company I was with was amazing and the atmosphere was very inviting. I definitely suggest making a lunch or dinner there sometime. You are able to make your own stir-fry dish. It was awesome!

Thursday night I have an etiquette night to go to. It is run by a few business organizations on campus. We are going to a superb restaurant, called Raffi’s. The meal is priced at about 30 bucks and we will be trained on professional and proper etiquette for dining and interviewing. It will only cost me $10! I am very excited, because of what I might learn and the sweet food we will be getting. Dr. Ernst, one of my business professors said that this should almost be a requirement for all business and management majors. I will try to let you all know how the experience goes.

Well those are the important/cool things that have been going on the last few weeks, but you all know that now is the time for the most important part of my blog, my deep thoughts…

I have this one friend who is obsessed with playing Tetris online.  I have another friend who can’t stop playing Snood.  Another, plays nothing but bubble shooter.  Although I have dabbled in certain games there is not one that I find so entertaining that I need to play it everyday for hours.  Why are these games so entertaining and why can’t I find a game that eats away at my life?  Those are two questions I constantly ponder.  So my challenge is to everyone tell me about an online game that you play all the time.  Rate the game (on a scale of 1-10) and then tell me why you like it so much… it may be my life’s next major endeavor…  See-you-bye…

I would like to say something in regards to the shooting that went on at NIU yesterday. My heart and my thoughts go out to all those affected and especially to my friends that were on campus yesterday. Please know that I am here if you need anything.   I will do all I can for you.  I also encourage everyone to comment on my blog and voice a prayer, or some thoughtful words so that we know that together we are thinking of and caring for those involved.

Again for those who have read this blog please support those who have been hurt by posting a small message to them. Thank -you.

Nobody has any idea how happy I was to see that I had three comments from last post AND all pertaining to my wonderful plant Tina. I thank everyone who said that I am not weird. You are probably lying but thats ok!

So my friend told me a sweet story the other day that I just have to share with you all. Let us call my friend…Fred. Fred has always wanted to jump on the hood of a car when it came running into him. He thought it would be like a 007 movie or something. Fred was walking across the street while going to class the other night. While he was in the middle of the cross walk a car came up but didn’t STOP! He got to jump on the hood of the person’s car. He said it was not as awesome as he thought it would be.

As soon as he jumped on the car hood he slipped and fell on the windshield and fell onto the street- don’t worry he is ok, no serious injuries but there is more to the story. The driver was a girl, we’ll call her Monica. Monica was freaking out, and was trying to make sure that Fred was ok. They started to converse in the middle of the street. People were going around them and honking while they were having a very intense conversation. Fred was a little flustered so he totally forgot to get this girls phone number and now he is kicking himself for not getting it. Now his search for the woman of his dreams continues on facebook and by word of mouth. He can’t find her. If you ask me, I think they are made for each other. If you hear anything, comment, and maybe we will be the century’s best matchmakers.

When I read that story above, I realized that it was much more exciting to hear than read, Fred just told the story so well. I posted a visual of the incident that happened. I apologize for it being pix-elated, but it is the only picture Fred’s sweet move.

I have a sweet-move story as well. One time I was at my friends house. They have a sprinkler that is motion sensored to keep raccoons and other animals from eating the fish and frogs in their pond. Before I knew this she told me to walk up to the pond to see the new fish. The sprinkler went off but didn’t get me. It didn’t get me because I tucked and rolled away from the blast. It was totally on reaction and I was so proud of my secret agent move.

I want anyone who reads this to write about a time that you made a sweet secret agent tuck and roll, or jump move… or any other cool reaction. I’m sure you all have something cool that you did out of reaction. If not, just write about your most embarrassing moment. That way we can laugh “with” you, instead of thinking you are cool. See-you-bye…
