Turkey Weekend

Alright so I came back to Piqua Thursday morning. I made it home in 2 hours 15 minutes, very impressive since my car didn't fall apart when I was driving 80mph the whole way. Thanksgiving day I spent at Amy's grandparents which was wonderful. I ate so much food and had a great time hanging out with Amy and her family. On Friday my Mom and I left the house around 7:30am to head out shopping. What a crazy day! We attempted to shop at Best Buy but realized soon after we stepped in the store what a bad idea that was. So we headed to Kohl's which wasn't much better and waited in line for about 30mins to checkout. Then it was off to Fairfield Mall to do some shopping. It was of course crowded especially in stores that were having huge sales. I managed to convince my mom to get me a few things at the Gap. But alas no such luck in J.Crew, my absolute favorite store. I had a coupon at Bath and Body so we waited for about 10 mins in line there. We then headed to "The Green" which is a new mall that basically is a replica of Easton Mall in Columbus. Thankfully the weather was amazing so I enjoyed the outdoor shopping. I bought a few things for myself at Delia's. Mom bought me a new robe at Victoria's Secret and a green wool pencil skirt at Ann Taylor Loft. Then we headed to Target and couldn't resist buying things for the baby. This kid is ridiculously spoiled and it's not even born yet! That night I headed to Amy's to help celebrate her brother Dan's birthday and just hung out. Today I ran some errands in the morning and made brownies. Jenny and BJ are coming in a few hours for dinner. Tomorrow I'll head back to AA. I still haven't found a place to live and it's seriously annoying. I hate living out of suitcase and sleeping on a couch.

To back track slightly, I went to Boston last weekend for the Green Corps interview and had a great time. The city is beautiful! The metro system was interesting and crowded. The interview events were held in Cambridge. The interviews went really well and I met some really cool people. There were about 60-70 people there and I actually knew a few of them from other environmental events. Though, I found out this past Tuesday that I wasn't accepted into the program. So now it's full speed ahead in getting my grad school apps together. I'm not sure where else besides U of M I'm going to apply. But I definitely need to get a move on with that one since it's due Jan.5th.

I got my first loan repayment notice in the mail...ugh...it's highway robbery I tell you! I take the GRE on the 16th and I desperately need to get back to studying. I was doing pretty well till I got this job in AA and now it seems like I don't have time for anything. I just wish my life would get settled.
