It has been awhile since I've posted anything here on xanga.

A lot has changed since the spring. I remember writing out a big xanga post at the end of the spring recaping my whole sucky spring and everything that had happened and everything I'd learned but I deleted it pretty quickly. I was really at the point where I couldn't trust most people. My best friend lied to me so many times, my parents talked to people behind my back, my sister, friends, etc. It was a pretty tough semester and it led to me not looking forward to my senior year here at Grace University. I just wanted to be done.

Well- My summer has been awesome. I stayed in the dorms at Grace University all summer and worked fulltime in the compliance department at TD Ameritrade. I got to know all the people that I work with a lot better. I quickly became more then just an intern when we had alot of people leave the company. I filled in for 2 people who left and I was getting cases assigned to me. I also helped our lead lawyer with lawsuits and investigating other cases. I learned a ton and I was really sad to have to stop working fulltime at the end of the summer. They even threw me a goodbye party even tho I was just moving from fulltime to part time because school was starting. I love going into work and the people I work with are awesome.

Well- I like golf now. ha- I've always thought it was rather boring but for some reason I bought Tiger Woods Golf for my xbox at the beginning of the summer and I played that a bunch. Nearly all the guys I work with are golfers and watch golf so we watched the US Open in our break room and they answered my questions about the game, etc. and got me hooked. I bought a set of clubs with my birthday money in mid July and have been going golfing two to three times a week ever since. Paul Kushiner has become my golfing buddy. We go golfing at 6 am - usually stand out side before they open. There is no better way to start your day. I also watch all the golf tournaments.

I became a huge fan of the Andrew James Trio. It is my friend, AJ,'s band. I've got to a bunch of their shows this summer and to their cd release party at the beginning of August.

Today I went to AJ's Church. He is the worship leader at The Water's Edge Church. I really liked it and am going back next week. I find it amusing that I'm switching from Brookside Church to the Water's Edge...

Other random things that happened this summer...

I started eating flintstone vitamins again (I even handed them out before our first soccer game yesterday)

I played soccer a few times a week. I played with a bunch of alumni which is always fun- I love those guys. I also joined a co-ed indoor soccer league. My team is so sweet- really cool people. I didn't know any of them before they asked me to play with them.

I read the seventh and last Harry Potter book.

I got a Total Rewards Gold Card :P

My taste in music matured

I watched Fight Club for the first time

I saw KJ52 and Toby Mac in concert at the Louis Palou Festival and Toby Mac was awesome live

I made the decision to play soccer my senior year

I joined the goal club.

I read 3 books on Warren Buffet and his investing strategies

I had a real good summer surprisingly. I'm sad its done.

I was sad my summer was done and I wasn't looking forward to this fall...but some things have changed and things have been going great.

I'm pretty upset someone won the powerball jackpot lottery last night...cause it wasn't me...
