I Did It!!

Before I launch into other things I'd first like to apologize for the completely whiny post I posted earlier. I had no reason to be in a bad mood and was completely caught up in my own pity party. I am grateful everyday to have both an internship and a job for the summer and really had no right to bitch! 

After work today (which was actually really busy) I kept my promise and did the first day of the 30 day shred. Um WOW. Jillian officially kicked my ass and I kinda love her for it! I had no idea of how out of shape I was until I started dying about 2 min into the first circuit but it really was a good dying. Now (I'm embarrassed to admit) my arms slightly hurt as I'm typing this (sad I know) and I know I'm going to be SOOO sore tomorrow but I'm actually really excited to go back for more! I love how Jillian kept saying how she knows its tough but you have to work hard to get results and her attitude totally kept me motivated! I'm a little scared to see what level 2 and 3 are and I'm dreading when I have to move up a level! 

My dad was out of town for a couple days so on Friday my mom and I just had a girls night and watched He's Just Not That Into You which was cute and we both liked it. Last night I went to a BBQ held by a lady who does our monogramming for the store. It was LOTS of fun with yummy food and cocktails and great company!! After the movie C and I went to a late show of....

   

It was GREAT!!! Seriously one of the FUNNIEST movies I have ever seen and I could easily go back again! Also Bradley Cooper is yum and I loved staring at him for the entire movie haha. You all need to go see this ASAP!! Tonight I didn't really do much besides work, and worked out. I'm now watching the Tony awards (what can I say I'm kinda a musical junkie) and getting so excited for Army Wives! So sad the weekend is over but only a couple days away until NAPLES!!! Hope everyone had a great weekend!!

ETA: Haha so I forgot to mention a funny story that happened last night at the movies. C and I were standing in line to buy tickets and when the guy called us up to the window I went up first. Now before I continue the guy standing at the window was tall, kinda awkward, and looked he was MAX 18 or 19. I told him that I wanted one ticket for the Hangover and he ASKED FOR MY ID! Ok I def thought this was pretty weird esp because I sometimes don't even get carded at bars but I assumed he was being really careful (and judging by the end credits of the movie I know why!) and I was planning on joking with C about checking our ids after she bought her ticket. Well she went up to the window and.....nope didn't get asked for an id or anything! So that's when I felt pretty cool (not) that the 18 yr old movie guy didn't think I was 17 and all during the previews whenever a movie was rated R C joked that I shouldn't be watching it because my parents weren't supervising me. Hahaha I just wish I knew what they movie guy was thinking when he saw my birthdate!!  

Grrrrr

Ugh. Today I totally woke up on the wrong side of the bed and I am officially in the WORST mood ever. Not helping my bad mood is that it is SUCH a pretty day outside...perfect for sitting outside or driving to the beach or anything really but I happen to be stuck in the boutique working. Normally I really wouldn't mind this because my internship is unpaid and I need to make some money this summer. Also I usually love working here because the people are fun, the clothes are awesome and it's fun to pick out clothes for other people to wear. Ugh but today is just one of those days where I'm sitting by myself, and I know no one's going to come in because it is SOOO nice out so I just end up feeling sorry for myself. 

Blech. Ok sorry for being such a debbie downer, and I promise that when I get home I'll post a MUCH happier post (that wouldn't take much haha) because I actually had a GREAT weekend and saw the Hangover which was SOOOO funny!!  I don't know if anyone's still reading this totally rambling mess of a post but if you are THANKS!!

A Small Confession

The last time I left you dear readers I had just gotten back from Target with my copy of 30 day shred in my hands ready and excited to start it. That night I placed it right in front of the TV in the basement so everything would be ready for Tuesday evening. Well it's still sitting there. Unopened. In it's plastic wrap. 

Whoops! So I haven't been as good about starting it as I though I was going to be. But the fact that I have it has to count for something right?? So I'm giving myself the next two days off (I've never been good about working out on Friday and Saturday) and then Sunday NO MATTER WHAT I'm going to do it! It's so sad how tired I am everyday after I get out of my internship but I guess I just have to get used to working during the day again! 

My internship has been going well but it is SOO much more work than I thought it was going to be!! Which is good I guess. I'm doing a TON of writing which is great because I enjoy it and I want to do something with writing when I grow up (which has to be next summer...eek!) but it is totally wiping me out! Everyone in the office is super nice, but since it's only my first week I feel like the odd guy out. It's not really helping the fact that the way the office is set up I'm always in the back room (with a couple other people who are kinda quiet...or maybe they're just quiet around me!) which is kinda isolated from the rest of the office. Oh well!  It has been great getting this much experience however and I'm excited that I'm going to have a lot of writing samples for when I start looking for a real job!!

So that's about it for me...my life has been SUPER boring this week! I can't WAIT for the weekend and I am super excited because in ONE WEEK I'll be on a plane headed for Naples!!!! WAHOO!!

I took another Plunge

Although my workouts have been going pretty well, and I've been feeling a lot better and more in shape I took another plunge today and got the 30 day shred DVD! Although it sounds pretty tough I've also heard really good things about it so I'm super pumped to start it tomorrow after work! Anyone out there have any tips for a newbie??

In other news ( I sound like I should be a newscaster haha) I survived my first day at my internship...mostly. One awkward moment was at the beginning when I should up right on time in my cute Lily navy and white wrap dress ready to see my supervisor....and he wasn't there. So there I sat until someone else found me and gave me things to do haha. After that everything went well and I even got to write a fun article about wedding cakes (maybe it doesn't sound that fun but the other articles I had to write were about healthcare technology...ZZZZZZZZZ) Both of my supervisors will be in meetings tomorrow am so I don't have to go in until 12! They are both super nice tho (and CUTE as well as all the other guys in the office...YES!) and I'm pretty excited for the rest of the summer. I also think I'm going to learn a TON!! 

Lastly...how was everyone's weekend? Mine was busy but great! Unfortunately I had to work at the boutique (my internship's unpaid so have to make some money this summer!) the entire weekend which normally wouldn't be that bad but it was SOOO nice out so it was kinda sad. Friday night I saw Angels and Demons which was pretty good but not fantastic. I fell asleep for prob like 5 min in the beginning (which was a smidge slow in my opinion) but I thought the end, esp the "twist" was GREAT! I'm also a huge Ewan McGregor fan so I was so happy to see he was in the movie! Saturday night C and I went out to Fire and Ice in Boston for dinner and drinks (if you haven't been there...go it's great!!) It was so much fun and it was also funny because there were five bachelorette parties there which made it alot more fun!! 

I also wanted to quickly say a huge THANK YOU to all of my followers and blog world in general. I saw that I have 51 followers today and am BEYOND shocked and cannot thank you all enough. When I started blogging I never thought that I would have 10 followers, let alone 51, and I really never thought that anyone would want to read my random thoughts (and they really are random!!) You all are so great and I have fallen completely in love with blogging, as well as reading and keeping up with all of your blogs. Thanks to all!! I Hope everyone is having a great start to the week. Just discovered that True Blood is back on HBO on demand which is GREAT news because they were all sold out of the DVDs are Target :( Have a great night!!

Is it just me?

This is the first of probably many "is it just me" posts however this one is only going to be about the MTV movie awards so if you didn't watch them this will probably be pretty boring!! 

Ok so like I said in my previous post about Twitter (side note: thanks to everyone who's following me!!) I LOVE the MTV movie awards...or at least I used to. Tonight I found to be pretty bad however I want to say it's because the "quality" of the show has totally gone downhill and not the fact that I'm probably getting too old for this! Some random thoughts about the show
- Miley Cyrus' speech made my ears bleed
- ditto goes for whenever Kristen Stewart came up to speak 
- although I can't deny that Rob Pattinson is effing hot the more I see him IRL (and not as Edward) he always kinda skeeves me out....and I haven't determined if it's a good or bad way
- I'm slightly terrified that that weird guy in the gold suit with the popcorn head that escorted people off the stage is going to attack me in my room tonight
- I don't care how stupid his line's were, Andy Samberg always made me laugh esp his "trailer" for New Moon
- although I still like the books...I'm starting to get a little sick of Twilight and wished that Slumdog Millionaire won more awards
- wearing Converses with a dress does not make you edgy....it makes you look like you have no fashion sense (I'm looking at you Kristen Stewart)
- can't WAIT for Bruno to come out...looks so funny!!

Off to bed to get ready for my first day!

PS- Just found out that my second cousin (I have a really small family so we're all really close) just got deployed for his second tour in Iraq...my thoughts/prayers go out to him and his family

Tweet Tweet!

So as I'm sure you can tell by the title of this post (and through the neat little section on my sidebar)  I'm finally on Twitter! I needed to get an account set up for my internship this summer (which starts tomorrow...gulp) so while I was filling everything out I thought that I would create a "fun" non-work account too! If you can't get enough of me through blogging and want to know more about my boring life (which I'm sure all of you do hehe) feel free to follow along! Even if you don't really care about what I do feel free to follow too because I don't have any followers right now and would love to have the impression that I have some friends haha. Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Ps-WOOHOO MTV movie awards are on tonight! Even though I'm probably like 5 years older than the target audience I still love this and the VMAs sometimes more than the "real" award shows
