tornados

i decided against naptime yesterday to avoid getting completely off schedule. not to mention that there was a tornado watch and a fast moving thunderstorm so it was maybe best to stay alert. came back from work, grabbed a peach and bagel for dinner, watched some gilmore girls, talked to some people on the floor, and wandered about. 

we've been having some really weird weather lately, lots of really bad thunderstorms, tons of pouring rain, and weird 

anyway, on to college and careers the main topic of the weekend. it was busy, busy, busy. 


friday morning all of the admissions ambassadors & staff had breakfast together, we played some ice breakers ( there are a lot of new faces in the office). after that we started setting up the field house for check in. check in consisted of rebecca and i sitting under a large metal sundial until it started thunder storming and we realized that we were in quite possibly in the worst place to be. more moving boxes, directing traffic, etc. we all headed to dinner in gracie's. we had a student panel which was basically a bunch of us sitting on stage answering questions. that night there were a bunch of activities in the field house where we were supervising. emalee and i hung out around the photobooth mostly. i did get a tattoo-- pictures of that later. 

saturday morning i woke up around 6 and we all met at gracie's around 7 for breakfast. the morning included directing people down the quarter mile and handing a microphone around during a Q&A session. lunch time again at gracie's. wandered around more with ali, helped answer some questions and then it was time for yet another student panel. check out was around 3 so we just stood around and answered more questions. 

all in all a good, long weekend. one more college & careers in august.

Ohmigosh....the dreaded word. Tattoo. I am not certain I even want to know about this, HOWEVER,
my curiosity gets the best of me AND if you thought it was a good idea I MAY be willing to entertain the thought - or not. To be pierced is different........The hole can always grow shut whenever. A tattoo you have forever, or, complicated removal later. Standing by. Love and hugs, Nana
