Oh well

So Atlanta was awesome! I had a great time hanging out with Jamie and Jeff, and the Delta interview was probably one of the funnest(?) interviews I've ever had. However I did not get the job. But after it was over I kind of realized I wouldn't. This may sound stupid, but I think a big reason was because I failed to get the memo about wearing a blazer...just about everyone was wearing one. Kind of weirded me out, but whatever. Anyway, Friday may have been the longest day of my life, but it was really good. Woke up 5:45 (2:45 California time), interview from 7:30 till about noonish. Hang out with Jeff and Jamie until they took me to the airport. Flight left at 5. Sat next to overweight woman who could not put down the armrest she was so big on the first flight, and next to a smelly indian man on the flight to Fresno. Wonderful...Was picked up by a friend where we went out to see Unknown (which is not very good btw). Finally to sleep at 12:45 (awake for over 22 hours!). Anyway it was a good day. Was going to head to California Saturday, but didn't until Sunday. Had a blast hanging out with my friend in L.A.

Now I'm back in Fresno and back to the grind. Kind of sad about not getting the job, but I honestly wasn't even sure if I would have been able to accept even if I was offered it because I wouldn't have known what to do about school. Training would have been in April and I hear it's intense and you probably can not do homework...so whatever. I also am really missing my old friends today. I miss having good friends just within a couple minutes. Granted I'm making friends in Fresno, but they aren't as cool as my friends in Utah (or New Mexico, or D.C.).

Anyway, there's the update, thought everyone should know how crazy my last week was.

...oh I also feel I should mention that over 100,000 people applied to Delta for a flight attendant position. Less than 3% got interviews and even less than that will even be hired. Crazy.

Valentine's Day

I spent the day with the person I love most in the world. I had a fabulous day before and day of. The weekend before not only did I get to catch up with some siblings and friends, but I was serenaded to and on V-day I had a fantastically delicious heart shaped pizza. Spent some time watching a movie, and having a grand ol’ time. Best Valentine’s day ever.

…I feel I should mention that the person I love most in the world is myself ;) …and my friend Becky was the one to serenade me…and I had a WHOLE pizza to myself, and watched a chick flick all alone. So by best v-day ever...I must mean, average v-day of my life.

Atlanta, Georgia Here I COME

Yes, you read that right. I don't know how many of you know about this, BUT last September I applied to be a flight attendant. I didn't hear anything from them until Christmas week when I had a phone interview. As I passed that part of the application process I was told to do more online application stuff. There were some issues with that but I finally got it all turned in last week. Thinking it was going to be another few months till I heard back, imagine my surprise when I got a phone call TODAY, to do an interview THIS friday. I will be flying out Thursday, interview Friday at 730 AM (that is 4:30 California time, kill me...), and then fly back after the interview is over. Crazy stuff. After that I will be driving to LA to hang out with one of my super good friends from Utah (who is flying in from New Mexico). Cutting things close, but I'm super excited and nervous for this weekend!!!

Wish me luck!!!

Oh and Happy Valentine's Day!!!

I can't believe I keep doing this...

Who would have thought I would neglect my blog so badly…not me, never me. And yet here I am. Life has been pretty busy this last month. School started (after a break of 5 weeks!), I was teaching Sunday school, and I was working almost 30 hours a week. In addition to that I’m actually socializing this semester…I know, shocker. One of the things I did to socialize was go to a quad stake activity – to play broom hockey!!! I love broom hockey. I don’t know how many of you know that. I used to go regularly back in Utah with a group of guy friends. Anyway, it was really fun – however, it wasn’t as cool as it is in Utah for the following reasons: 1. Too many people, 2. Too many people who don’t know what they are doing, and 3. Too many people who don’t know what they are doing and pretending like they are the shiz. Very annoying. Yet it was still fun and I got to meet a lot of new people.

Another bit of news…I may or may not have kind of started to date someone. And he may or may not be a bit younger than me. And he may or may not be taller than me (Hallelujah!). I still don’t know what to think about the whole situation, but I’m just going with the flow. We hang out on the weekends and text like crazy the rest of the time. It’s a good thing we have unlimited texting. But he’s a good guy, which kind of makes me feel like the bad one, like I’m going to corrupt him (he may or may not have recently come home from a mission).

Anyway, there’s my little update for the month. ;)
