Man oh man, I cannot tell you the last time I was this giddy! Bar Boy #2 is already LIGHTYEARS ahead of Bar Boy #1, not that it was a hard task considering the source. I texted him yesterday evening to see what he had in mind for tonight. He responded that he had just been thinking about me (cue heart melting) and that it was up to me either dinner or just drinks. I chose dinner and he is picking a place and letting me know today. He called me and we talked for about 20 minutes. It was so easy and we both have the same sarcasm and sense of humor, which is pretty unheard of because my humor can often be a bit dry and misinterpreted. Where was he 2 months ago when I first got to New York?! And what in the world am I going to wear tonight...
Expect a post date wrap up later tonight/tomorrow!!
I have little to no words.. That never happens to me. But I did get the Honest Scrap Award from A Girl Can Dream. She's fab if you haven't already stumbled across her blog you should make your way over. I got this award a little while back and had been thinking I wanted to do a re-do since my first answers were super lame. I had all these great things to say about myself, and now I can't think of what they were. But alas... here goes.
1. Growing up I would always see how long I could go without wearing the same outfit to school twice. I played that little game with myself this summer with my internship wardrobe and I won.
2. I like to plan things way ahead of time. The only problem with this is that I have a problem with follow through. I think I am getting better though.
3. I've only ever said "I love you" to one boy, and I am sure that it was just friend love as I was only 14. I don't know what being in love feels like yet but I am looking forward to it.
4. All but 1 college I applied to had orange as one of its school colors.
5. I am SO not a morning person, much more of a night owl but for whatever reason all summer I have been waking up at 6:40, going back to sleep, then waking up with my alarm at 7:30.
6. I am pretty much a chicken and fish girl only. I've never had that desire for a big steak dinner.
7. I've never had a real pet. Hermit crabs, fish, a hamster that drowned, but no dogs or cats.
8. I absolutely abhor feet. I cringe whenever anyone's feet brush up against me. I worked in a nail salon for 2 years as a receptionist and I would have to fill the pedicure tubs with people's feet in my face. It was torture. But I got free manis and pedis!!
9. Love purses/tote bags. Have too many, even though I can only use one at a time, I am always on the lookout for new ones.
10. In 45 minutes I will be off of work!
I am not this boring I swear.. I just never have anything good to say about myself when I am on the spot!
Happy Wednesday everyone. After today we are on smooth sailing to the weekend. My stomach is already in knots over tomorrow's date. I am going to try and breathe easy and just be myself.. it worked the first time around right?! :)
Got a text from Bar Boy #2 last night! I think I am more nervous now because I had totally rationalized it in my head that I wouldnt hear from him since I am only here for 4 more days. He suggested drinks on Thursday so there will be a story (lets hope for a good one this time!!) on Friday. I am so not this girl, so I am having a minor freak out. When I was in 6th grade my crush, well everyone had a crush on this boy at the time, told me that I wasn't girlfriend material and I don't think that you ever get over that sort of emotional trauma from your formative years. I spent high school in everyone's friend zone it seemed. If I heard one more "Why can't I date a girl like you?" or "Just wait for the right one to come along" I was going to lose it. You can't get more of a girl like me other than me genius. I've never been one to put my feelings out there for fear of getting hurt, which ultimately led to the "I didnt know you liked me because I liked you too" saga. Glad high school is behind me. I know this is overanalyzation at its best, and my fingers just got away from me and spewed all that out. It's just a drink. Breathe in and out.
Thank you for all the well wishes on the job. I am trying to balance on that thin line of being passive and aggressive. Do I say anything to my boss? Do I wait for him to suggest it? How do I let him know that if he were to offer me a position I would take it? I don't know how to navigate this!
Oh, Monday... Today is my last Monday of my internship! Everyone please cross their fingers that my boss offers me a job at the end of the week. I really think that the environment here would be great to learn at the entry level and it would be a weight off of my shoulders going into senior year. If the speed at which this summer flew by is any indication of how fast my last year of college is going to go, I think I might start crying. I LOVE my university. It has been everything I could have dreamed of over the past four years and my mom put best yesterday when she said she couldn't even begin to imagine me having gone to a different school. I visited for the first time my sophomore year of high school and knew from the second I stepped on campus that this was it. I haven't regretted it since and I am NOT looking forward to leaving just yet.
Had a fairly quiet last weekend. Friday I came home from work and did ABSOLUTELY nothing. It was perfect. Saturday headed into NYC to meet an SS (sorority sister) for the day. We got a quick lunch and headed down to SoHo. I'm glad we went because that was one of the things I had yet to experience this summer. There were such adorable shops. I got a dress for my birthday, which is three weeks from today! :) Even though I will be spending my big day in Small Town, PA at the bar with the local townspeople, I felt the need to get a pretty dress, and it was on SALE! There is a layer of tulle that I think I will have removed because I feel like it makes me look a little to much like a cupcake. Yesterday it was rainy, surprise surprise. I managed to force myself out into the rain to head to Best Buy because I think my laptop is reaching the end of its life and I wanted to backup my files before something catastrophic happens. Stopped at TJMaxx on the way back, and they really had nothing good. Picked up some notecards and a mug, and a new hair straightener. The switch broke off of my hot pink CHI so I needed a temporary until I can get a new one.
Hope everyone had a relaxing and enjoyable weekend and that your weeks are already off to a great start!
PS. Someone pleeease buy my Blackberry!!
What a lazy Sunday.. the weather is quite gloomy and I am planning to stay in my PJs all day! Just wanted to mention this before I post in on eBay! I have a Blackberry Curve 8300 that needs a new home. It is in great condition. I have only had it since January, and have been quite careful with it. No scratches or anything. I have a wall charger, car charger, and a clear plastic silicone case. These items can all be yours for $100! It is an AT&T phone, but I believe that it can also be used on the T-Mobile network. Sorry to those with Verizon! If anyone is interested, leave a comment here or you can email me at chelleybelle3@hotmail.com
