Holiday Season

I have always loved this time of year. I'm pretty sure most everyone does. It is a time to hang out with the family and friends you love as well as eating all the home made food. Next week is Thanksgiving, and I can not wait to eat what my girlfriend's mom makes. We are both going back home to Myrtle Beach for the Holiday.

The menu consists of fried turkey, ham, sweet potatoes, macaroni and cheese, and my favorite, pumpkin pie. There are several other fixings in the menu, but those are my favorites. The other part of the day will consist upon numerous bottles of wine. Drinking a light alcohol allows me to eat a lot of food.

After all of the dinner, Kara and I will probably head to the local bar to reminisce with all of the people we used to go to high school with. I am looking forward to spend the Holiday back at the beach where I grew up.

See everyone at the news station,

Work Study

So I finally got a job that will give me some experience. I am starting today at the Citadel. I saw that they have a work study program that gives you the opportunity to work in a department of choice on campus. I signed up for the procurement position. I don't really understand the position as a whole, but it sounds as if I will be doing a bunch of different applications in a business sector. 

I just know that it will look good on my resume, as well as giving me the experience I need to get out in the work force. This will hopefully be a good opportunity for me until I find that job that really suits my interest and future money requirements. 

I start in one hour from right now, so I am a little nervous. I will let you know how it goes next week on my blog. I am working 20 hours a week, so I should have a little more understanding of what I am doing. I will keep you posted.

Chesapeake Bay Retreiver

Hey guys,

I hope everyone had a good weekend. I made sure I kept up on all of the SNL skits for the presidential election. There were some pretty funny ones.

As far as this weekend went, I went home to Myrtle Beach to visit my dad. It was good to be back in town for a little while. We played golf and went out to dinner. The golfing part was pretty awesome due to the fact that I shot a 75. That is the best I have ever scored so I was pretty impressed. That was the weekend upon itself.

As for the title of the blog, I put a deposit down for a Chesapeake Bay Retriever puppy. The mom has not had the pups yet, but they should be due next week some time. They will be ready to take home right around Christmas time. I am very excited to finally have my own dog. I know it will be a huge responsibility, but I am ready to have that companion that I am responsible for. I will post pictures toward the end of the semester for how the littler looks.

Anyways, see everyone in class tomorrow.
