I've got a big girl job now!!!

Pro Alternatives, Dallas, Texas. That is where I will be working for the next couple of years. I decided not to blog about the interviews for this job since the last one I blogged about didn't turn out to be a job I wanted. I officially start April 9th and I could not be more excited. My job title is a Junior Recruiter. Pro Alternatives is a staffing agency that hires crediters. I am really looking forward to starting this new job.

In other exciting news, Alec and I are getting married in 65 days! Whhhaat? Where has the time gone? Everyone told me all along that time will go by so fast and I didn't believe them. Well, I do now. Honestly, I'm pretty much done. There are a few loose ends here and there, but for the most part, I'm done. When Alec and I first got engaged I would think about the wedding and get so nervous and overwhelmed. I was excited then, but there was just a lot of nervousness that went along with thinking about it. Now when I think about it I just smile. I guess I was just nervous and overwhemed thinking about planning it all, but now that it is mostly finished I can just think about what the day really is. I get to spend the rest of my life with my best friend, there is nothing to be nervous about there. I have realized in all this job searching, wedding planning, apartment hunting, grown up business that Alec is pretty amazing. I am a lucky girl.

Anyway, Alec and all my roommates are out of town till Saturday (bummer) so I don't have much to do this weekend. I'm going to work a little at Bed Bath and Beyond on Saturday which is how you know I'm bored. Either way, I'm enjoying my down time before I enter the working world.

I hope everyone is having a WONDERFUL week!!!!! The weekend is in sight.

Interview #1

I have a job interview! It is with a company called Bullet Marketing Enterprises and they have offices in Dallas and Ft. Worth. I'm nervous, excited, anxious and did I mention nervous. I always get so nervous about interviews. I even got nervous for my interview at Bed Bath and Beyond, and that wasn't even a real interview. I just have to remember to be my self and that if it is the right job they will want me exactly how I am. I want to impress so bad that I get myself all worked up and it takes me a good 20 min. into the interview to finally chill out. I'm having to take tomorrow off of work, which is my last week, so everyone is pretty mad at me. Oh well. This is my future, I don't know what else to say. Everyone, wish me luck. Say a little prayer please.

On a lighter note, I had a WONDERFUL weekend. It would have been better had Alec been there, but I think he was having a pretty good time in Kingsville with the baseball guys. They did really good this weekend too. 3-1. Ashley and I drove to Colleyville on Friday evening and had dinner with Alec's parents at a place called Saviagno's ( I have no idea how to spell it, but it's itialian and it is amazing. It is one of my favorite places to eat.) Saturday we both had wedding things to do. I'm not sure either one of us accomplished exactly what we went there for, but that doesn't matter. Sunday we were suppose to just go to Stone Briar mall to get Chris a lovesac, but that little trip ended after a good 5 hours of shopping and lots of damage to the wallets. Oh well, we had fun. That is all that matters, right? There is nothing like a good road trip with one of my best friends. I'm not sure there is ever a dull moment when you throw Ashley and I together.

I'm going to finish my laundry and get myself worked up about this interview tomorrow, haha. Hope everyone has a wonderful week!!!!
