Day 42, 39 Left!

Update...

To diminish my ever growing boredom, I have begun taking on more hours at work. I now work Monday-Friday 9-5 as always, and 530-10 MWF and then 9-1 on Saturdays in the park. I work front gate selling or taking tickets. Hopefully the money will be flowing in soon.

Another reason I have decided to take on this extra workload is that I have decided that next May I will be buying a car. I am very excited and trying to to find the car I want right now. lol. My mom and I have spoke and we have decided that it will be smart and a learning opportunity to safe almost $300 each month and then at the end of a year if I have been able to do so, to buy a car, with a nice down payment. All advise is welcome.

Aunt Julie, Nanaw and Nicole, and my parents are all coming to visit and I am very excited and grateful. Hopefully with them here I will finally get to share the park with my loved ones and get a chance to see NYC. If anyone else would like to come see me, you are all welcome.

I am slowly making it through my reading list. I am now on the lost memoirs of Jane Austen. It is an interesting book, which is actually a fiction novel written as if the memoirs of of Jane Austen have been found and refurbished. It is an extraordinary piece of work, that i am enjoying immensely.

I have been running everyday or getting some type of exercise. I have been doing this for 6 weeks and am very proud of myself. I have almost completely decided that I will be buying an ipod used solely for running. I am excited and proud about this fact, because it means a great commitment to my running and my health in general. Brandon will be helping me with this, since he seems to be the Mac expert.

Work news...

My team for the Walk in the Park raised the most money and so we get a party. We will either get a Water Park Party, a Rides Party, or a BBQ. I am voting for the water.

My boss is buying lunch for all of us today from some fancy Italian restaurant. Yum Yum. He is doing this because the office has been crazy and everyone is working very hard in light of recent circumstances.

There is a Leanne Rimes concert on July 4Th that I am hoping to attend!

I think this is all the updates right now. I love and value your support. Thank you so much. All my love. KT

Day 31

Yesterday was the Walk in the Park. I raised $20 for the cause, thanks Grandma! As a park we raised over $61,000. Go Great Adventure. It was a cold and clody morning, but we made the best of it and had a good time. I got to pet a snake and the PBA bowlers were there. I have some pictures, and as always will try to get them up soon.

I have now successfully moved into my desk...I bought a paperclip holder, tissues, and scooby do bandaids. I love having something that is just mine, but I am out in the hall way so people ask me questions and I have no idea what the answers are. lol.

I have now rode all the coasters in the park and offically Kingda Ka is my favorite, and Bazzaro is second! I miss home still, and Kentucky in general. Mom it is safe to say New York and Jersey are out of the question.lol Brandon I miss you, but you already know that. I love you all. TTYL!

Day 17

Not much to say today...

Kingda ka is open, but I have not had the chance to ride it.

Saturday my roommate Shantel and I went shopping. We took the bus to Walmart, but missed the stop and went all the way to Freehold (about 1.5-2 more miles). Well instead of taking a bus back we decided to safe $2.65 and walk. I felt pretty stupid. But luckily it was a beautiful day and we had already planned on spending the whole day out. Oh and I got Starbucks for the first time in 3 weeks! It was amazing.

The family and Megan are planning to come up August 1st, which means I have 2 whole months open. I'd love to see any of you! Well I've got work to do. Love! Kt
