My First Entry

I am going to start a blog, Hopefully this way when interesting things do happen in my life(this probably won't happen until summer because my studying habits are not super interesting... I study a lot) Anyways now people can stay more updated on the happenings of my life.

Living Situation
For now the exciting news is I applied for my apartment for next year! I am super excited, I walked by it twice on Saturday with my parents so I know I like the outside and Mark and I are going on a tour on Friday so hopefully the inside is just as cool.  I will have a deck overlooking a fountain, and it's only like two blocks from campus!  I don't know for sure if I got it but I'm first in line for it, thanks to Mark and I going to Bell Realty at 6:30 am last Friday (they opened at 9) and we were 25th in line for choices so if all the paperwork goes through I will be in my first choice apartment next year YAY!  No more stress for that.  I even happened to be standing behind my (second?) cousin Aundria in line so I got to hang out with her for a few hours which was nice since we haven't in years!  BIG THANK YOU TO MARK for waking up at 6am to stand in line with my for 5 hours to get an apartment when he already has a place to live.

Dell Fiasco
Another update is my computer (stupid Dell) broke completely so I am borrowing a friends until I can buy a new one.  Any suggestions?  I really want a Mac but I am somewhat nervous because I have heard mixed reviews on the compatibility with the business school here, so I am open to others but I have a huge lack of trust with computers right now and will probably end up with either a Mac or HP.  Note to self:  Never buy a computer completely based off of the fact that you can get it in pink.

Summer 2010
Onto my last bit of news for this post.  On June 13th I will be officially moving to Portland for another summer of living at my Aunt Dee and Uncle Michael's condo.  Going home is just not my style these days (sorry Corvallis).  I have another great internship so it will be great.  I am working in promotions for both the Portland Beavers (baseball) and Portland Timbers (soccer).  The Beavers are the triple A affiliate of the San Diego Padres and the Timbers are going to be an MLS team next year!  I am super excited to live in Portland again, its nice partly living on my own because I usually take care of everything for myself but still getting invited to dinner with my Aunt and Uncle and having the family connection.  Also not being in Corvallis makes it easy to avoid the people that went to my high school that are now doing nothing with their lives and I would hate to run into since I feel like I have done a lot.

I guess this is a pretty good update so I will probably write again soon, maybe after my apartment tour!

Go Ducks!
