Lets get you caught up...

Hello!

Since my last entry Dianna and I packed up and moved to California for my internship with PricewaterhouseCoopers. They are a big accounting firm. We are living with my parents in Upland, CA and I commute to Huntington Beach everyday to work on my first client: Boeing. Not a bad one to start on! It was quite overwhelming at first, but it has been a good experience. The firm has really treated my nicely as well. I got to visit Disney World for the first time, attend training in Chicago, and get to know some fancy eats in LA, all on the firm. Ahhh, the life of an intern. Sounds nice, but it definetly doesn't last. It is a joke among the firm how well the interns get sucked in. I really like the people I work with and that is the big reason why I want to stick with PwC. Now all I need to do is figure out where I am going to live and work for real. Los Angeles is nice, but the internship was long enough to make me re-think the idea of settling there. The top alternatives are Florham Park, NJ and Dallas, TX. Who knows where we will finally decide to go. Any suggestions?

Internship

So this summer Dave and I have been on an internship. He is working for Price Waterhouse Coopers. They have been absolutely wonderful to him. He has eaten at many fancy places and has gone to Disney world. I did not get to go, I was upset at first but, he brought back some cute books ends and souveniers. I was then okay with it.

While he has been working, I have been finishing up my last two classes. I am officially done. I graduate August 17 and 18. It feels good to be finished. I highly recommend it. Now that my classes are finished I have been fixing up my recipe book, knitting, sewing, and canning. I am so domesticate. Who would have thought that I would be doing these things and actually liking it.

On weekends we have done all of the touristy things. I have stood in John Wayne's shoes. I have also walked on Drew Carrey's star along with a ton of other people's. It was fun to the sites. My favorite was the La Brea Tar Pits. I am such a nerd. I loved looking at the excavation sites and the museum. The fossils they were able to remove were amazing. If you haven't been, you need to go!
