Alive! with the glory of ....

...LOVE those song lyrics that dan posted in his profile! the song has been playing in my head for a few weeks now, and its kind of one of my favorite songs ever.

so i feel like everything in my life right now is pointing to the single phrase: "Welcome to the summer of awesome". and its only a sarcastic phrase like 10% of the time. the last month for me has been the most amazing that i've felt in an extremely long time, ie: like since high school. i've been active and traveling a hell of a lot. it feels like im in a different city every weekend, and sometimes in more than one city every weekend. brief synopsis on my adventures thus far:

- jack's mannequin concert kicked off the summer of awesome. the concert was AMAZING, only cost me five bucks and was followed by hysterical drunken adventures afterwards. also, the next day i waited in line for 45 minutes for a cheesesteak that rivaled Pat's.

- went to ocean city for a day. it was sooo awesome just to lie on the beach for a day and soak up some sun and just talk.

- joanna's grad party. really fun, just chilin', drinking, losing miserably at beer pong and meeting joanna's family and home friends.

- NYC with MC! SOOOO much fun....went shopping in chinatown, rode the NYC subway and the Long Island Railroad, had a cappuchino in little italy, bought awesome sunglasses and an amazing hat, played beer pong, two-tiered and otherwise, (Team Asian, undefeated!) got to watch a drunken shouting match between Mets fans and Yankees fans, and talked to random strangers on the train.

- went to ocean city for the night. played bet your liver with corona, tried to play drunk putt putt, but the places were closed, so i just ran on the beach and splashed ppl.

- went to jaime's grad party. was nice to see everyone again, and nice to leave once the drama got to be a little too much to bear.

whew! and those were just the weekends! during the week i work for the largest commercial real estate firm in the world, CB Richard Ellis, in Baltimore city. i really really like my job. its extremely fast paced and busy at times, while at others, i just kind of stare off into space and daydream about my weekend plans. im learning a lot and i am using computer programs that i have never used before. my favorite thing to do at work is create marketing flyers. i get to be creative and use some of my vocabulary to sell real estate. sounds boring to say it, but i enjoy it. i got a compliment on the first ad that i did, and i was really proud of it. the worst part of my job is having to figure out how to do stuff on the computer the hard way. i really like the people im working for too. they are really nice and very helpful and make conversation with me when they can. and at the end of the day when everyones getting off and getting antsy to go home, they start to talk about their outside lives and telling interesting risque stories, and i laugh at them.

in other news, i have a new boyfriend. hes amazing. im crazy about him and he makes me extremely happy. he was involved in most of my weekend adventures described above (all but NYC) and he makes my life fun.

this summer is truly turning out to be the best ive ever had. and its only been one month.

on the docket for the rest of the summer:
- TBA: MC is coming to baltimore! i'll show her all the cool stuff, it should take that long, then we can drink!

everything is gonna be so good. i just cant wait for the rest of the summer, but at the same time, i dont want it to end.

good night world. i cant wait to wake up in the morning and just be happy to be having a great life.
