Huge storm, Harry Potter, Hot Mess, Built a Table, and Peace Corp

The title is my life in a nutshell these days. The reason it's been so long between posts is because we recently just got internet back at our house. Why has it taken so long? WELL, a huge storm came rolling through here about a week and a few days ago one that literally had lightening striking the ground and shaking the entire house. It fried our internet, the entire blocks internet, our hot water heater, two tvs, two laptops, a weedwhip, a dvd player, and all I can say is thank God for renter's insurance. Especially whoever my parents go through because I'm already back up and going so awesome.

Harry Potter - a few nights ago I went to Harry Potter with the lovely Melissa Gearman, Emily Takle, and her sister Erin. Oh. My. Goodness. SO GOOD. So good I'm going to go see it again this week, and I have never before gone to see a movie twice in theatres not even when ticket prices were a mere 5.50 instead of this 9 dollar nonsense.  I won't even get over it. So amazing.

Hot Mess -A few days after that Lindsay, Melissa and I got together for some good laughs and eventually a few drinks which hit me hard. I only had a few drinks, I mixed them myself, had plenty of sleep, had food before and during drinking, and yet I was for serious drunk. Probably cause I don't drink much anymore(but I can, because less anyone doubt it, I am of age). So that was fun, and my brother now fondly refers to me as 'the lush'. It was worth it though. I forgot how much I miss those two wonderful women!

Built a table. yes I quite literally built a table...well my dad did a lot of it while I learned and assisted but I did in fact use power tools in the production of it, and did a primer paint job yesterday and am doing a coat today then I get to design/paint it however I want - purty excited!

I have decided on a path of action come May after graduation. I am going into the peace corp. I have been working on my application like crazy - I have my essays done and will be uploading them after this followed by trying to figure out who to use as recommendations, but it's going to be fantastic! I hope I get an invite.

Also, I have been slowed down on my internship role from lack of internet, computer, and so on, BUT I still believe I will achieve my goal of having everything ready before school starts so I can email them in as needed and make adjustments and won't need to be doing that, chapter core business(get ready for some great stuff this year - we have some service options planned, freebies at orientation, and a first meeting set for August 24th!) and SENIOR YEAR OF SCHOOL!!!

also my car is finally in the shop so hopefully this year I will have a car! knock on wood.

Till next time...
