The week so far
Ok so I havent kept up much on the journal this week but Ive been busy so lay off! hehe
This week has been pretty busy. Josh and I decided that if we could do it in time, we wanted to create our own Christmas cards. Monday after work, I stopped at Union Square to take some pictures. I also went to the park (I forget the name) behind the Metreon which is known to be a beautiful place to be (and it was).
So it was great to feel like a photographer. My only goal there was to take pictures and there was nothing stopping this man on a mission. I didnt want to spend a lot of time, so I just took as many pictures in as many different angles and figured I would take what I get. Its funny but I wasnt looking at people or sights but scenery and how it was laid out, what surrounded Union Square, and the back drops. I looked at the stores and thought how many were big names that werent in Rochester. Stores I now have access to like Macy's, The Apple Store, and Sax 5th Avenue. Ok so the only place Ive been in out of the 3 was the Apple store. :-)
Funny thing with my camera is I must have looked like a tourist. A man handing out fliers mumbled something to the effect to take a flier and something about pretty babes lol. I must have looked straight. When I told him "no thank you", he asked where I was from (again looking like a tourist). It was nice to say "Im from San Francisco". God it really felt natural coming out of my mouth. It felt comfortable and flowed without even thinking too much about it until afterwards.
So many people have asked me over the past 6 months where I was from and of course the only answer was from Rochester. It seems different now. It seems like I belong here. I am becoming a San Franciscan, Oh boy!
Union Square Christmas Pictures
Also if you are interested and havent had a chance to see the Heartwood pictures from the weekend, you can check those out here as well.
Next thing up is that cute red head guy. I guess I should start calling him by his name because he is now dating my roommate. Yes things worked out between them and they have been seeing each other every day now since I fixed them up on Friday night. Hooray, Im so happy for them. Chad seems like a really nice guy and St3ve deserves someone nice. I really hope it works out and if it doesnt, I hope it doesnt come back to bite me in the ass. We all know thats an option as well lol.
Well thats about it. Work has been nice since *that woman* isnt around. I have been in training all week (which after 5 months of doing the job, really isnt training). Anyway, Im enjoying the break away from the normal routine even if I do already know most of whats being trained. The training is mainly for a new girl who started about a month ago and just got hired about 2 weeks ago direct. I dont mind watching and perhaps learning a few new things.
As for everything else, Josh starts break tomorrow for 2 weeks. I cant wait. I know I just saw him last weekend but you just cant have enough Josh in your diet. Its true, I love him and he knows it. Crazy guy! hehe..
I guess this is a good place to end. Hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday season.
