New job, new title

My boss told me I'm in charge of porta-potties this year.

Guess I'm big shit now, heh

Didn't you know that I'm famous?

Yep.

(DISCLAIMER: THIS POST IS NOT FOR THE OCD. Mom, you might have a heart attack)

Well, ok. Not really. But I could have been on an episode of Hoarders this week. I was, just without the video cameras... Which is a shame really because Traci and I had some great commentary for the loads of crap we hauled.

So. We got sent to Lake City with one of our bosses to help that staff person to clean and organize their supply closet. Easy enough we think, oh sure, we'll be back by lunch time. HA! Big FAT Ha!

The trash was unbelievable.

Piled to our waists. And the "supply closet" aka trash can was One in One out. (Now, no one likes One in One out, especially at the bar, but it might be worse when its somethin you have to clean)

So out went the 1997 employee handbooks. And the statistics from 2001. And the random carriage. And 2 bags stuffed full of Santa hats. And used nail files (BAGS OF THEM!). And Old decorations. And a box of pita chips. And broken glass (not a fun surprise). And old pictures of people wearing 'awesome' clothing.

30 bags of trash and 4 hours later we had a nearly empty closet.

Then it was time to organize and actually use the shelves (novel concept) So Traci and I spent our time labeling and boxing up things that ACTUALLY went together!! (placemats with placemats not old christmas lights!)

We had fun giggling about all the stuff this woman "NEEDED!!!" but ended up getting coerced into throwing away anyways.

Made us grateful for our clean offices and being able to keep things organized and clean. (yes mom and dad, I said I was organized and clean. That room at your house is my evil,messy twin.)

So, Out with the old and in with the new!!

And boy do we wish we had a before and after photo... just imagine hoarders minus the cat bodies. (thank god)

Happy Spring Cleaning!!

Savin' Babies!

So, I haven't blogged since I quit my job :) :) and nothing exciting was happening in my life between school and 2 internships in the fall...

But, I'm back!

And, better than ever, I think.

Now I'm interning Full Time (YIKES!) for the March of Dimes and I LOVE IT!!!!

I have my own little desk, that I share with the postage machine and the phone (that we all avoid) in an office that all the Communications Interns share (Hi Traci!).

I work 9-5 and I could not love it more. I thought I would like work more than school and turns out I was right on! Even though my alarm goes off at 7:45 everyday. I just 100% despise school. Sure, I think its neccessary and everyone should go to college and get a degree and do well in school but, holy hell am I glad to be done turning in papers and bubbling in scantrons. I also love having a constant thing to do, like go to work at the same time everyday rather than "hmmm class isnt until 11:45...." "I guess I'll study"

I guess this is good news for my future. I know it makes my parents happy that I would rather work.

Plus!!!! Soon I will make money instead of just spend it!

Thinking about my schooling coming to an end and graduating does make me a little sad sometimes. I have had the time of my life at UF and I honestly think I can say I experienced all aspects that it had to offer me. I love my major and I love what I learned, I loved my professors, I loved my dorm roommates and living in the dorm (when I don't think about the rat infestation :( ) I love my sorority sisters and having that home away from home, I love the internships I've been able to have and my bosses. I loved not being far from my fun-loving parents. I loved Bright Futures for paying my way.

Being a gator definitely helped make me who I am and I'm so blessed to have gotten the college experience I did. And hey, those national championships didn't hurt either.

So now I will enjoy my last semester to the FULLEST and try not to think about leaving the best friends I've ever had.

Who knows where the future will take me but I'm up for the adventure!!
