101 Days of Summer: Day 34-24

Okay, okay, no bad comments please! Haha. I love how it looks like I took a 10 day vacation. I honestly didn't. I don't know what happened. Life, I guess.

I remember spending a day working on my Blog. I wanted to change the theme. It didn't work out too well. I still need a new theme. =/

My car's broken a bunch. Not sure if you guys know about that. I got 2 new tires cause the others busted. Now another's busted so I have a spare on. I don't have AC. My engine light's on. And now my car will sometimes like stall kinda (I have an automatic) and my battery light will come on. Blahh.

I've talked to my grandpa some this month. I feel like I've already told you guys everything. Hmm.. oh well.

Hope you're all excited for what's to come!!

Until tomorrow (hopefully),
Selina Christine

101 Days of Summer: Day 35

I woke up in a pretty lazy mood this morning. I didn’t feel like doing anything. And then those moments when I did, I couldn’t think of anything to do (when honestly I have a million things I need to do.)

So the morning, flew by and then I started getting ready for our Opportunity Meeting. We picked up Sergio, Gabe, and Freshka on the way. We were rushing, but stopped for some drinks at a gas station. They were all out of my favorite aloe drink, so I had to settle for a peach flavored aloe water. Oh well.

Meeting went well and then talked to my family a bit afterwards. Once again, real life stuff. It was nice seeing my sister. And I’m really thinking about taking a week off and going home.

Afterwards, we stopped at Village Inn and I had some breakfast. We all devoured our food; you could tell we were hungry. I fell asleep on the way back, as usual. And we got home around 2am, as usual.

Until tomorrow,
Selina Christine

101 Days of Summer: Day 37

As if I didn’t wake up late enough yesterday, I woke up at 7:27am today. Ughh. Why. I really need an alarm clock that will wake me up. Our security alarm didn’t wake me up. Boo.

So work from 7:45-3:45. No lunch again. And once again the day went by kinda quick. That’s always good.

But once I got home, I got exhausted. Not sure what happened. Maybe it’s the weather. Maybe because it was Sunday. Not quite sure.

Worked on some Primerica stuff. Wish I had more time to do that. Chance went out. I fell asleep while reading “The Sharpe Focus”.

Until tomorrow,
Selina Christine

101 Days of Summer: Day 38

I woke up at 7:07am this morning. No good considering I had to be at work by 7:45am. But I made it there 4 minutes late. Yeah, I’m a pro. For some reason my “check engine” light wasn’t on. Odd.

At work, I was at the Front Desk for about an hour. Talked to Derek a little. Then when Christy and Ivan came in, I went to Guest Services, my usual station. The day went by rather quickly. Started STARVING around 1pm. But I distracted myself so I would be able to leave early without a lunch break. My last hour was my busiest. And one of the computers froze. So I ended up staying later. So much for leaving early. Did some overtime today, which is fine because I can leave early later on this week.

I talked on the phone with my grandpa for a bit afterwards. Then had a talk with Chance. I started crying. I don’t like thinking about the real world sometimes. I’d rather live in my little bubble. It’s just sad how people aren’t who you expect them to be. And how people have the choice to be who they want and sometimes it’s not what you want. I think I just repeated myself, but the point is I got emotional.

I made some Bagel Bites for lunch/dinner. Then I got my coupons ready and went to Publix with Carrie. Afterwards, Matt came over and Chance and I watched “40 Year Old Virgin” on TV while eating some mint chocolate chip ice cream.

I was tired afterwards. Pretty exhausted. So off to sleep, it was.

Until tomorrow,
Selina Christine

Tag: Would You Rather

I read ElleandBlair daily. Here's a fun tag Elle put up yesterday. Though I'd answer it as well.

1. Would you rather walk around all day with you skirt tucked in your underwear or be seen wearing a really see through dress?
   I'm fine with the see-through dress. Been there done that.
   


2. Would you rather go to a party and not realize until the end of the night that you have lipstick on your teeth or that your fake lashes are coming unglued?
   Oooh. This is a toughie. I'd say lashes though. I feel like more people look at my lips/smile. But... if it was like a super sheer lipstick, I'd choose that. Even though I think that's cheating.
   


3. Would you rather forget to put mascara on one eye or forget blush on one side of your face?
   Blush. The way I do it, I think it'd be less noticeable.
   


4. Would you rather wear lipstick/lipliner combo or frosty blue eyeshadow?
   I can pull off the frosty blue. Trust me. :)
   


5. Would you rather wear foundation that is two shades too light or go way overboard on bronzer?
   Oh man. This is tough. Foundation. =(
   


6. Would you rather drink an entire bottle of ketchup or run into the guy who broke your heart on a bad hair day when your skin is freaking out?
   I like ketchup. Don't think I could drink a bottle of it though. There's no guy that broke my heart though. I used to think there was. But that's not the case. I'd still choose the second option though.
   


7. Would you rather be able to date any celeb you wanted or wake up with perfect red carpet-worthy hair?
   Hair. Celebrities are over-rated.
   


8. Would you rather your armpits smell musky or like delicious lasagna?
   Musky. I think. Not sure. Lasagna would make me feel sick. I think.
   


9. Would you rather give up your makeup or cell phone for one year?
   Cell phone. Because I could get an ipad and use it as a phone.
   


10. Would you rather run into a cute guy you like with food all in your grill or no makeup at all?
    No makeup at all. So he can like me for me.

Stay Beautiful,
Selina Christine

101 Days of Summer: Day 39

I tried sleeping in. Just couldn't. Woke up at 9:30am. Spent some time online again. I'm working on some partnerships that I'm sure you'll all be happy about. I followed up with some people and then booked an interview.

When I was ready to leave the apartment, it started POURING. Like crazy rain. Thunderstorm. Blinding. Flooding. Heavy. Invinceble. Rain. There was no way around it. Umbrella did nothing. Trash bag did nothing. I got soaked. Hair got ruined. Heel broke. The rain was SIDEWAYS. And then of course, a little while after being in the car, it stopped. Completely. That's my life.

Interview went well. I should've personally done it though. The interview was at Starbucks. I had lunch there. Wasn't too impressed. I guess my Starbucks days are over? Hah, maybe not. My goal is 5 recruits this month. I'm proud of my accomplishments though. I got recognized THREE times at Training tonight. That's awesome, if I do say so myself. I was the Top Personal Recruiter for June. Yay me! We stopped at McD's on the way home. Surprised? And went to bed around 2:30am. Again.

Until tomorrow,
Selina Christine

101 Days of Summer: Day 40

My "check engine" light came on today. No fun. I honestly think my least favorite thing in the world is when my car breaks. Or fixing my car. I just think cars should always work. Maybe it's because I feel like I'm putting so much money into it anyways with the gas prices soaring, that adding more for broken things just doesn't make me feel too good. Plus, I'm a girl, and I don't know that much about cars, so I often think I'm being taken advantage of.

So then I worked 1-9:30pm. Don't really like mid shifts. I just feel like when I work a mid, that I'm working ALLLLL day. But the day went well. I cleaned & organized, which I like doing. I also trained some people so that was good. Note: I don't get paid to do the above.

After work, Chance went to Sergio's. I stayed home and spent sometime online. I don't know why. But I felt weird. Like unsafe. So I had locked myself in my room that night. Chance finally left Sergio's around 2am. So again, I was up late. But I didn't mind much since I had the next day off. Chance and I had some ice cream around 2:30am.

Until tomorrow,
Selina C. Mullenax

101 Days of Summer: Day 41

Hump day. Why’s it called that? Cause it’s in the middle of the week? idk.

No work today. But I still managed to sleep in a bit.

Cereal for breakfast. Then I worked on some figures for Primerica. Consulted Rob about it. Maria passed her state exam. Had some technical difficulties at Kinko’s and ended up just buying some ink. Got a package from Bathrodite with 4 samples and 3 full size. Had some Chick-Fil-A for lunch. Fell asleep on the way there. Had my hair all scrunched. Got another headache. Arrived in NPR just in time for an appointment. Baby Phil is so cute. Overcame objections. Got to hang out and catch up a bit with Jenny. Got home a little after 2am. Talked to Carrie a bit. Had Ovaltine. Straight to bed.

Until tomorrow,
Selina Christine

101 Days of Summer: Day 42

I can’t remember what I did in the morning for the life of me. No memory of it at all. Oh well.

Worked 3-10:30. I got out early because I had some overtime built up for the week. Chance picked me up from work. I was falling asleep on the way home. Once home, Ron & Elmary were there. The brought pizza and soda. We went over some things and ended up staying up until 1:30am. At which point, I went straight to sleep.

Until tomorrow,
Selina Christine

Shopping: CVS Steals

Who doesn't love free? I've been couponing for over a year now. I just don't see why people would pay for things when you can get them for ... free. Here's a few beauty realted things I picked up this week.

Balance bars were free. But you can only get one. Their cost was $1.69, but they gave you $1.69 in extrabucks. Therefore they were completely free. I didn't get this yogurt honey flavor, I got mine in a chocolate flavor.

The deal with this was that if you purchase $15 dollars worth of Garnier products, you get $5 in extrabucks. The Garnier Moisture Rescue products were on sale for $5. I already use the two moisturizers. I love the gel one. They're so cooling and refreshing and I love the way they smell. They were all out of the foam cleansers which I was sad about, but oh well. I got an extra gel moisturizer since I'm almost out of mine. And then one of each for Carrie. Total was $15 so we got $5 extrabucks back. I also had coupons (from May 1st's Red Plum booklet) for $2 off a Garnier cleanser or moisturizer. Since I got 3 products, I used 3 coupons. I spent a total of $4 for three moisturizers. That's equal to $1.33 each. Yeah, buddy!

The original price for this was $6.99. CVS is having a special where they are giving you $3 in extrabucks when you purchase one. So now it's really costing you $3.99. I had a coupon (from July 10th's Smart Source) for $3 off of a Soleil razor. My store was all of out razors, so the manager let me get the cartridges using my coupons instead. So I got a cartridge of 4 of the new BIC Soleil Shimmer for 99 cents.

What deals have you gotten lately?

Stay Beautiful,
Selina Christine

101 Days of Summer: Day 43

AM shift again. I apologize that my posts are boring and about me working. Boo. On the other hand, I've been getting really good at doing my makeup quickly getting to work on time. So work from 7:45-3:45. I left early today because I didn't get a lunch break. No breakfast today either, so I was starving.

Once I got home, I worked on my coupon lists and got together all my coupons. Carrie, Matt and I then went to Olive Garden for lunch/dinner. Matt wasn't feeling well so we dropped him off before going shopping. Carrie and I then went to Publix. Spent a while there and grocery shopped too. Then we went to CVS and lastly, Target. We put all our stuff away and hung out for a bit watching Sex and the City. Then Darius came over and we watched Chelsea Lately. Chance had taken my laptop so I was having withdrawals and I ended up falling asleep around 12am.

Until tomorrow,
Selina Christine

101 Days of Summer: Day 44

Woke up rather late again. Late for work, I mean. Still, I stopped by McD's and got a #1 sandwich. Don't remember what it's called. I also started my morning off with a small caramel frappe. Yummm!

Worked 7:45-4:15. No comment there. It was slower than yesterday, which is good because I got some work done. Haha. After work, it looked like it was going to rain. It's been raining for about a month now. Kinda getting tired of it. No lunch break again so I was starving.

*From not eating lately, I've been getting weak, and dizzy and headaches. It's really bad. I realize that. I just have been having trouble finding time.

Chance and I went to Planet Hollywood at Downtown Disney. No waiting thanks to me have a VIP card. I felt like the portions were small. But the food was all yummy. Drinks too! I got the Transformers drink. Chance got the Dark Knight. We'd never been there before. Pleased. It was just too busy. So we'll be going back in a couple of months when all the tourists are gone. I had the Pomodoro. I have pasta at home, I just like their picture of it. I had some Disney gift cards so it didn't end up costing me much.

We stopped at Publix on the way home and picked up some ice cream. Mint Brownie and Chocolate 1/2 fat. Mr. & Mrs. Smith was on TV so I watched that. Chance and Carrie joined in and out. Chance got me some ice cream. I finally used my new socks from Ulta that I got a couple weeks ago. My feet felt so smooth!

Until tomorrow,
Selina Christine

Music: If I Die Young

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a, bed of roses
Sink me in the river, at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

Uh oh, uh oh

Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you when she stands under my colors,
oh and
Life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had, just enough time

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a, bed of roses
Sink me in the river, at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had, just enough time

And I'll be wearing white, when I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little, cold finger, I've
Never known the lovin' of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand, there's a
Boy here in town who says he'll love me forever,
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life, well,
I've had, just enough time

So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls
What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singin'
Funny when you're dead how people start listenin'

If I die young, bury me in satin
Lay me down on a, bed of roses
Sink me in the river, at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song

Uh oh (uh, oh)
The ballad of a dove (uh, oh)
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time when you're really gonna need them, oh

The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had, just enough time
So put on your best boys and I'll wear my pearls

I love this song. It's beautiful. Love the music and the lyrics. Honestly love everything about it. Except the video; that confused me. It just reminds me that life is short. That even young people die. That nobody is promised tomorrow. It makes me feel even more proud of what I'm doing. Love. Pure love. Obviously, this is one of my favorite songs right now. And it's my ringtone. =D

101 Days of Summer: Day 45

Woke up around 7am for work. I had to be there by 7:45am. Blahh. Work was pretty busy all day. I should've seen that coming since it's Saturday. But really, I was non-stop busy. Derek brought donuts for breakfast (such a lifesaver since I hadn't eaten anything.) For lunch, I had free cotton candy. Yyyeah, not doing too good on staying healthy.

After work, I was starving. But I was on the phone with Tech Support for a little while. By the time Chance and I were ready for food it was about 7pm. We went to Kinko's but they were closed. Then we used 2 GPSes to find a Chili's. There was one within 2 miles. We couldn't find it. We drove all over the place for an HOUR! Yes, really. It was incredible. And of course when we got there I was beyond hungry. We got the 2 for $20 deal and their drinks were pretty much all 2 for 1 (except Top Shelf). Chance ordered Blue Moon and I got a Pomegranite Margarita. My drink was way too strong for me though. And our lovely waiter didn't charge me for it. (More tip for him.) For food I tried something new, margarita crusted chicken. I'm not sure if it's because I was starving, but I loved all the flavors. Yum!

Stopped at Amscot on the way home. I was thinking ice cream, but I put it off. Once, home we watched the Shaytards, of course. Then Carrie and Matt came over and we all hung out and talked a bit. We all planned a double-date for tomorrow night at 7pm at Planet Hollywood. Yay for more eating out! Ugh, you can tell I need to go grocery shopping. Blahh.

Before bed, I got a terrible headache. Hurt really bad. Decided just to sleep it off.

Until tomorrow,
Selina Christine

101 Days of Summer: Day 46

Is it sad that everytime I think of Friday, I think of Rebecca Black? I won't say anything about it this time.

Surprisingly I had the day off. Works for me. Slept in until 11am. Holy cow. I guess I took my time getting ready. Sergio met us and we left around 3pm. Stopped at Panera for lunch since I haden't eaten any breakfast. So we were running a little late to an appointment. I painted my nails with OPI's Melon of Troy while on the way. Met with Andrew in Wesley Chapel at 5:30pm. Got some Starbucks and went to Training.

Training was good except a lot of the team wasn't there. Oh well. Maybe next time. I'm not going to push people to achieve freedom and have all their dreams come true. That's on you. Yes, I can be your coach, but I have a different approach right now. Yes, it may change, but for now I'll work with it.

After Training, we stopped at McD's. Our food took 20 minutes to come out. Really? Once home, we were exhausted and I went straight to bed.

Until tomorrow,
Selina Christine

101 Days of Summer: Day 47

I’m surprised I’m still doing this. Yay me. Haha.

This morning, I woke up when I felt like it. Spent some time online.(When I say that it means twitter, youtube, facebook, blogspot, etsy.) Drove to The Loop to give Chance his laptop. Stopped by Circle K and got some gas. Got ready for work. Drove to Kinko’s to pick up Chance.

Worked 1-9:30. I don’t like that shift. I don’t like 12-8:30 either. I feel like that’s an ALL day shift. For lunch I had a lunchable and chocolate milk with pringles. Not healthy, I know. I also tried Hershey’s new Aerated chocolate bar. It was okay. The day went by pretty quickly but that’s cause I was constantly busy. Non-stop line. I talked for about 8 hours straight.

After work, we stopped by Little Caesar's and even though they advertise Hot n Ready, they didn’t have any pizzas ready. Boo. So we went home and I ordered Pizza Hut. We had a meeting from 10-2. Half the people left at 1, but others left at 2. I love everyone’s energy. And I really need to start talking to more people.

Then Chance and I watched the Shaytards. We’ve gotten in a routine of watching them every night. It’s the only channel he likes thanks to the cute little kids. And of course, 2:30am calls for bedtime.

Until tomorrow,
Selina Christine

Tag: Beauty

I love doing these tags. I remember doing them ALL THE TIME back in the MySpace days. Haha. This one I found here and I thought I should try it out.

SKINCARE
-How many times do you wash your face daily?
*I’ve been averaging once a day lately. In the morning. I know I should do it at night, but honestly, I’ve just been using a makeup-removing wipe at night and I don’t think that counts as cleaning it. Maybe if  get a good skincare process in line I’ll go back to doing it twice a day.

-What skin type do you have? (dry,oily,combo)
*I always thought I had dry skin. Always. But then I got a facial and the specialist told me that I had normal to oily skin due to my oily T-zone. Do you realize how many products I’ve used for dry skin and I probably caused the oiliness on my own?!? Oh well, at least now I know.

-What is your current facial wash?
*Ugh. I don’t like it. I want to say it’s by Neutrogena, but I don’t remember. I’m honestly just trying to use them up. I have a green one, a purple one and an orange one from Mark. Haha.

*No.

-Name a makeup crime that you hate?
*Not blending. Not matching. No precision. Harsh lines. Fake eyebrows.

-Do you like colorful shades of makeup (lipstick,eyeshadow) or neutral ones?
*I’ve always liked colorful. It looks good on me. But thanks to my Naked palette, I’ve been doing mostly neutrals lately.

101 Days of Summer: Day 48

This is my favorite font. Since late high school. I just think it describes me. To be honest, this isn’t what my handwriting looks like in real life. But still. I like it. =)

Today I woke up and didn’t have breakfast. Shame on me because I have some fresh fruit. I put away some clothes and organized my bra drawer. Maybe I should include a picture. Honest. I’m proud of it. Then I finally went through some stacks of paperwork that I had and also filed my coupons for tax deductions.

Chance and I stopped at Publix. Then had Chick-Fil-A for lunch. Although, I just ate a milkshake. Yup. With a spoon. Then we stopped by CVS. We walked around The Loop a little bit. And then were at the movies a little too early. We watched Transformers: Dark of the Moon. I’m not sure why it got such poor reviews. I liked it. I guess the fact that there’s a new girl. Or that it was mostly combat. idk. I’m no good at judging/critiquing [sp] movies. I just like them all. Haha.

Then when I got back I watched some videos and got up to date with my blogs. Such a relaxing day though I wish I would’ve painted my nails/taken a bath.

Until tomorrow,
Selina Christine

101 Days of Summer: Day 49

We’re now officially more than halfway through Summer. How crazy is that?!?

If you read any of my last couple of blogs than you should know that I had my car fixed first thing this morning. It did require me to be on the phone with American Express for about 30 minutes thanks to a pending authorization, but oh well. At least I can now drive a car that has 4 wheels on it.

Carrie, Darius, Chance and I all stopped by Chick-Fil-A for some lunch. But we actually ate it back at home. The verdict for Casey Anthony came out today. The world was in utter shock. People were saying such harsh things. I say that God is the ultimate Judge and that "he who has not sinned shall cast the first stone". Then I had to get ready for work. Yesterday and today, Carrie made some yummy drinks that of course, I had to try before work. They were mostly mango, guava, pear, melon and banana mixes. =))

At work, I responded to a lot of the companies that had contacted me via etsy. And for some reason the night went by quickly. Thank goodness. I watched an episode of Hardcore Pawn for the first time during my lunch break and talked with Matt a bit.

I wasn’t sure what I had a craving for that night (probably chocolate milk) but we didn’t have any milk. So I ate a cookie and went to sleep.

Until tomorrow,
Selina Christine

101 Days of Summer: Day 50

Happy 4th of July!!!

It was a little crazy for me to see how many people were saying things like “Happy 4th of July” and whatnot on facebook today. I basically didn’t log on for that purpose. Same with Twitter.

Woke up early and called car places to see if anyone was open to fix my car which now definitely needed at least 2 new tires. Nobody answered. =(
Then I spent the rest of the morning tried to find a ride to/from work. Contacted Derek, Jodi, Jovie, and Will. Tom had a funeral. Christy worked opposite hours and today is her BIRTHDAY! Finally I got a few yeses. Is that really the plural of yes? Weird.

I made chocolate chunk cookies while Chance did some cleaning. Derek picked me up from the McDonald’s. I gave him a cookie as a thank you. I also gave 3 to Christy for her birthday. =)

I spent about 7 hours at work today on etsy. Honest. That’s literally all I did today. Haha. Lunch/dinner was free. It wasn’t great, but I didn’t care because it was free. It was also nice to talk to Ivette. And even though I’m having issues with my car, I was still in a good mood today.

Came home exhausted though. Seems like that’s been a big trend for me lately.

Until tomorrow,

101 Days of Summer: Day 51

Today I woke up with a plan. In between cleaning, I was getting ready for a lovely massage. Carrie and I went to Massage Envy. It was her first time. I used one of my pre-paids on her but she had to pay an additional $10. I had my first hot-stone massage. It was definitely relaxing. I loved it. I like the heat. I’m weird like that. Que: burning hot showers. Haha.

Then it was time for work. Boo. I left a little late. But didn’t really leave. My tire got flat, and I was riding on the rim. It was HORRIBLE. I couldn’t even leave my apartment complex. The spare tire’s already being used (Chance switched a bent tire yesterday.) So… yeah. Luckily, Carrie was there and gave me a ride.

So of course I was stressing at work. I don’t like when things break. Especially, especially on my car. And of course, it’s the weekend. And of course, everything’s going to be closed for the 4th of July. Great.

Until tomorrow,

101 Days of Summer: Day 52

I really need to get on track with this. I was thinking about it, and I should’ve done the “countdown” the other way. Because now it seems like I’m counting down the days until school starts as if that’s what I’m most excited about. Which, to be completely honest, I am. I can’t wait for the colors and the scents and the feeling and the excitement of that time. I’m such a nerd. Haha. I can’t believe this will be my last school year. At least until if I ever decided to get a Master’s.

Anyways, after getting home at a ridiculous time yet again last night, I slept in a little bit. Worked 3-11:30, a typical shift. It went by fairly quickly thanks to it being a weekend and all.

No idea where the rest of the night lead.

Until tomorrow,

101 Days of Summer: Day 53

Happy July!!!

Oh my, oh my, how times are flying. I have no idea where June went. And don’t remind me about May. At least I had some travelling done in June. This month is nothing but work. Blah.

I didn’t wake up early today. Usually I like to wake up before work with enough time to go online for a bit. That didn’t happen. I had to rush a bit to apply my makeup, but in my opinion, I think I looked fabulous. Friday’s are spirit days at Nickelodeon which means we wear green. So of course, I wore green makeup. I wore MAC’s Sweet & Punchy all over the lid and MAC’s Humid in the outer corner/crease.

I didn’t have much time for breakfast even though I was thinking about making an egg sandwich on an English muffin. So I poured myself some guava juice thinking that would do it. While driving, I realized that a. I don’t like straight guava juice or b. I need to throw away my tin tumbler thing. It was a bit too bitter. So I didn’t really have breakfast. (Not like guava juice alone is breakfast to begin with.)

By lunchtime, I was starving. So even though it was raining, I walked over to my car and drove to Wendy’s. They were the cheapest and since Nickelodeon messed up and didn’t pay me what they should’ve yesterday, I don’t have much extra cash laying around. I ate 2 jr. cheeseburgers, a value fry, and a value frosty. I definitely think I ate too quickly because then I wasn’t feeling too well.

The day went by quickly at work since it was so busy. I guess that’s the only positive for working on weekends. I left on time and stopped by the bank on the way home. I then uploaded my tweets for HerCampus on HootSuite and got ready for Training. I didn’t dress up, but knew I was getting recognized today, so I put on a nice blouse.

I got there right on time, even though my car was shaking pretty much the whole way there. I really need to get that fixed. (Alignment.) We had free pizza and soda because we beat a goal last week. Yay for food. *free. I got PROMOTED to Senior Representative!!! Yay me. More to come.

Afterwards, Sergio, Chance and I went to Rob’s house. We went over some policies and I was so pleased with myself. I’d never seen one before but I knew where to find information and what the numbers meant, and what the contract was saying. That made me feel good. Most people would get bored off this stuff, but it just excites me. Didn’t end up getting home until about 2:30am. I had some chocolate milk and then went to sleep.

Until tomorrow,

101 Days of Summer: Day 54

I spent so much time on the computer today. And I’m okay with that because sometimes it can be productive.

I had a 12:00 appointment for a massage. I watch the minutes before and after and I’m usually not happy about it not being exactly one hour. I had a new lady this time and I asked her for deep tissue, but I feel like she killed me. It hurt, and I did tell her a couple times. But afterwards I felt like I had bruises everywhere. Blahhh. Scheduled a Hot Stone Massage next. I’ve never done that before, so we’ll have to see how it goes.

When I got back home, I read a lot on katheats, theknot, and thebump. I’m not even engaged. And I’m definitely not pregnant. I just loved reading people’s stories and thoughts. Even people whom I don’t know. Because of katheats, I downloaded Windows Live Writer and Photo Gallery. I love her blog. She’s inspiring to me.

Then I went to Ulta because the Ulta points expired today. I’ll post a blog about what I purchased later. I also went to Publix since today’s Thursday and a new sales week started. Again, blog post will be up soon.

Once at home, I tried cleaning a bit. Then I read some more. Fell asleep writing a blog. Got a call around 1am from Chance saying he wasn’t coming back to Orlando and was staying in Ft. Lauderdale for the night. Got a text at 3:30am from a manager saying I work at 8 at the Front Desk that morning. Great.

Until tomorrow,

101 Days of Summer: Day 55

And finally a day off. (From work that is.) I’m glad that I’ve been having my days off together lately. But that’s not the case in a couple weeks. Oh well.

Slept in a little. Then organized the apartment a bit. We have so much stuff now. Our living room looked like couch central. But that got fixed. Chance and I were in the zone for cleaning and organizing and a lot of time went by. Delvys came over and Chance reviewed some things with him. I was done getting ready, so I touched up my nail polish: gargantuan green grape in matte by OPI.

By this time we were running late for our 2:00 appointment. So I contacted John and had that moved to 10:00. Once in Tampa, we went to a Pawn Shop and got rid of some things that Ashley and Jesse had left behind. Easiest cash ever. Afterwards, we met up with Chance’s dad, Raul, and went to a Mongolian Buffet for lunch. It was nice. My favorite was the sushi. And they could make you any kind of sushi you wanted. And they even had real ice cream, where normal buffets usually have the soft kind from the machine. We stopped by Caliente after that to look at Chance’s grandfather’s Memorial Garden. I hadn’t realized before that the bridge was a Memorial bridge. Even though it was starting to rain, I took a moment to take it all in. It was so peaceful and serene. And all of those people that had passed away were somebody. They meant something to someone. #ithinktoomuch

After Raul paid to fill up our gas, we had about an hour so Chris (Jay) met us at Target and we walked around. Chance had gotten soaking wet by this point, mind you. I had just gotten my (Carrie’s) heels wet. I got some chocolate milk to drink and practically gulped the thing down. I love chocolate milk. Especially if it’s organic. It’s literally like a dessert for me.

When time was up, we were on our way to meet with Jenny, Phil and Baby Phil. It was so nice to see her again. Promise, it’s been more than 7 years. It felt like we were still close friends though. Such a great feeling. She is doing an amazing job or raising her baby. Who by the way is the most adorable little boy ever. Honestly, I’m hoping to maintain a relationship with them. I’d love to be there to see their little one grow. Anyways, the presentation went well. I was able to learn about different ways to answer questions, which was good. We were there a little too long, but it’s all good. I could spend all my time helping other learn about all this stuff. I feel that everyone should know what we teach.

So then we went to Steak & Shake at 11:00 to meet with John. I felt so bad because our original appointment was set for 2:00 and we had to keep changing it on him. He was okay with it all. And I honestly hadn’t given him enough information before either. We got some shakes and Chance started the presentation. It went well too. He didn’t have too many questions, but it could be that he was just overwhelmed with all the information. He decided to join right there and then. Chance laptop didn’t have much battery. And his Palm wasn’t working properly. But we took the information anyways. *PS: George & Maritsa ended up going to S&S while we were there. It was nice seeing George again because of all the times I go home, I never really see him. Plus, it was good for him to see that we’re (Chance and I ) really doing this. At all hours and locations.

I drove home. No idea how I made it. I was falling asleep at the wheel. Came home at 4am. Exhausted.

Until tomorrow,
Selina Christine
