I guess it's time for a change

So I took the Coordinator job. I'm not exactly sure what i'm getting into, but i've had a good history of floating in the water that i have been thrown into. Things seem to be off to a good start except that i have NO CLUE what i'm doing or even where to start!! oh well...I took the signs and pressures from around me as Jesus trying to tell me something and although i was pretty anxious about the whole thing, it seems to be the right decision. (just as long as what they told be about the job is true and not much more!)

The perks seem pretty good right now. Even though i'm starting off part time (to finish up my other job as Academic Coordinator at Bona's) I'm technically getting paid for full time work, which is nice. I might be getting a new laptop, or some other new toys like a work cellphone or perhaps a PDA, a satellite wireless internet card and maybe some other doohickey's here or there.

Forgive me if i don't seem totally enthused...i'm still trying to process things while having soccer on the brain, and lack of sleep (i dreamed about recruits all night long) and also figured out that i haven't recruited any defensive players! YIKES! Oh well it won't be totally my problem!

This next month will be a long one, but after that i'll be on VACATION for a week to help clear my head or something. I bought this new Mountain Dew Energy Drink, so i'm going to chug that and see if it helps me wake up any more! Gotta Love Monday's! NOT!

Rach: Did you get the house?? I've tried calling but never seem to get you...let me know what's up!

Bec: I'll touch base with you sometime this week. My dad's bday is saturday so we might celebrate Friday and i'll drive up early saturday. Let me know if that works for you!

Catching up on a few things...

OK...well HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL was a hit! It's safe to say that i was NOT disappointed with the show. Sure there were cheesy points here and there, but you'll have that in any musical or in any Disney Channel Show. I was in great company, down in Pittsburgh where Rachel accompanied me and set aside her Friday night to watch it with me cause she new how excited I was! I think she liked it too...

It got even better when we sent Mike to the bedroom and we didn't have to worry about his comments here or there. Mike, I love you, but sometimes you're a bit much for me! We'll have to work on that if we ever get married!

I had a great time in Pittsburgh, i miss Rachel A LOT but it's always nice to have a weekend away from home and spending it with best friends. Hopefully i'll be seeing Becca in the next few weeks at camp!

So now i'm in a pickle. I was offered this job. Kind of a promotion of where i'm at now at Cornell Cooperative Extension. They talked me into interviewing for the job, so i did. Then when i had decided not to take it they blindsided me with the famous line "The others sucked. You're the only one. We'd have to re-post and re-interview" and blah blah blah. Jaime falls for the good ol guilt trip over and over...will i ever learn? Or get a back bone? Why don't i just tattoo SUCKER on my forehead!?!?!?!?!?!

Is Jesus testing me? Are all these signals a sign that i'm supposed to take the job? I wish that there was a phone number i could call to get the right answer! So if anyone knows anyone who prophecies, could you ask them what i'm supposed to do?

The job invovles some traveling, some administrating, some presentations and a lot of phone calls and face to face meeting. Pretty much everything i dislike doing. I'm quite comfortable sitting on the sidelines, doing my thing, not having to talk to anyone, and free time to do what i want when i want to do it. Aye yi yie!

Girls please let me know what you think. I'm so struggling here! Man, life is tough. I'm talking to Jesus about it, but if you get an answer before i do, could you also ask Him when he coming to Rapture us? That'd be amazing! Thanks!

I'll let you know what i decide...

Call me crazy...


Call me crazy but I love the Disney Channel. Call me childish, immature, or just a really big dork, but it's something about good clean fun that is irresistable to me. Not only do I like the shows on Disney Channel, but I'm a sucker for their "made for TV movies" or Disney Channel Origional Movies...and this Month's Movie is......................HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL! (Check out the website!)

I'm not sure why but this movie's got me all giddy inside. Maybe it's the little girl inside of me that idolizes the characters, or wishes to be an actor like them. Maybe it's the intriguing story line that is similar to my life, or the whole in my heart that never got filled with a musical performance of my own...(thanks a lot Miller!) Maybe it's the sub plot of the romantic comedy that pulls me in. Maybe it's just the fact that me loving this kind of stuff makes my friends laugh at me! Whatever it is, "High School Musical" can't get here fast enough!

Through writing this, i think i've had an ephiphany....i love the Disney Channel Stars who give back to society while showing that you can be successful without being annorexic, sluty, or have to curse every other word. I think i still have a chance of being one of the stars of Disney Channel only because i still look like i'm 15! There's still hope!

So for all of you Disney fans out there...Peace out, and keep it real!
