No work and all play

My internship ended Friday. It's weird how slow the summer seemed to be going until this last week. And then it all sort of just whooshed by really quickly. I had fun though. My boss was really good to me and there was a bunch of fun intern events. We went to a museum, had several lunch and learns, tried paintball in 100+ degree heat, went to a drive in movie, and spent a Saturday on a party boat. And lest I should ever forget my summer, there is my ever growing pile of FMC stuff to remind me. I have a million things with the company logo stamped on it: a stapler, paper, a tote bag, bottle opener, gym bag, rubik's cube, lanyard, etc. I'm excited for the beach, and the little bit of free time I have left in the summer, but I was still a little sad to say goodbye to everyone.

p.s. I think I'm going to ditch this format next week once I'm back from vacation and such. I think I prefer something a little more simple. Also Gabby is the "cool kid" comments in case you are wondering, lol.

Currently: Tired of shopping (This is very rare for me)

Makeover

Hey so as you can see I have switched things up a little bit. I might change it again once I take some pictures I like, but for now I'm sticking with the clouds. I am also going to try to update on a regular basis (at least once a week)and possibly more consistent content? I don't know, let's not push it lol. Anyways I should have some more time to polish up this blog (and catch up on other blogs!) since my internship ends this week!

Also.. I realize there is no tagboard for comments yet, but I will add one very soon.

Currently watching: SYTYCD, of course! I'm rooting for Jeanine! Thank goodness Adam Shankman is judging!! He is my favorite.

Currently looking forward to: Family Reunion at the beach and Caity's Wedding

Les Choristes


I saw this movie called Les Choristes (The Chorus) the other day and basically it was the highlight of my week. It's about a man who becomes a prefect at a boys' reform school. He tries to help them by earning their trust and teaching them how to sing. I won't get anymore specific because I hate giving things away, but I just had to say how much I loved this movie.

Pepinot!


My favorite character is Pepinot. He's an orphan who sits at the school gate every Saturday waiting for his father to come get him. However all of the kids are equally adorable (minus this one creepy boy who reminds of one of the children of the corn)and it tells a great story as well. I've been trying to get my whole family to watch it, lol. I think they are sick of it.

Currently: Bruised and sore from paintball yesterday
