University of Dayton - MyLife

My life is Fabulous

So, I have missed you all over the last couple weeks but I have been so busy at work and in my personal life. First off I am happy to report that I am officially done with summer school! Now I only have a few more classes to take and I will be marching to get my diploma before you know it! Also, school starts really soon so I am pretty excited about that as well, the first few months of school is so much fun at UD and since it will be my last semester trust me I will be having more fun than most people. I also can't wait to see my great friend Allie, it seems like it has been forever since I have seen her even though I went to visit her last month. Okay, I am going to do something that I rarely do... get organized and write in paragraph format so I am not just babbling the whole time, let me know if you like it better this way.

Let's start off with work. I am rounding the final stretch at work and my last day will be next Friday. On our last day our department has a luncheon for us and I am going to have to give a presentation on the things that I did this summer so I am going to need to get that together. Ooh, I have been working on a neat project, I have been working with a consulting company that has been implementing Industrial Engineering tools and techniques in order to improve one of our manufacturing assembly lines. That was so right up my alley and it has helped me understand the ways that my degree will benefit my future employer. So you may be wondering what I am going to do with my life after graduation... your guess is about as good as mine! I still have an offer from Frito - Lay which I need to give them an answer in the next few weeks but I am also looking at other companies including Emerson Climate Technologies, where I am co-oping now. I bet that I will not know exactly what I am going to do for a few months but I just hope that I make the right decision which I think I will, you all have faith in me don't you?

In my personal life I have been having so much fun. I started going to the gym, which is completely unlike me, and I have been taking Zumba classes. Zumba is like dance aerobics, we work out to Latin and Hip - Hop music and it is so much fun. It's like the best thing I have done in awhile since I normally despise the gym. I have been away for a week and I just hope I can get back into the rhythm today. So beside my health, I recently went to Florida, last week, and I had a blast as always. One of my girlfriend's mother was having a girls week for all of her best girlfriends and she invited me and my future mother in law. Okay so the story behind that is that my boyfriend is my old friend, which I went to visits, cousin and as long as I have known her I don't ever remember meeting him. Isn't that wild? That was the best ladies week trip I have ever been on, not that I have been on too many. We had so much fun and so much sun! My friend's father was our butler and he made us breakfast every morning and made sure that we were having the best time possible. It was such a great time and I do still wish I was still there but there were too many exotic animals just running around so I am glad that I am back to Ohio where the "safe" animals like dogs and cats are instead of worrying about lizards and alligators!

Well I guess I should get back to work, I hope you all are having a great summer and if you are going to be on campus in the fall, I hope that my blogs have helped you get ready for the fun that is the University of Dayton!

~Peace
