My first regular season game: Bruins 3-1 Caps

Yep, You got it. It was my first regular season game. The Washington Capitals vs the Boston Bruins. SPOILER ALERT: The Caps lose. Ugh.

Well let's start off the trip. Everyone that knows me knows that I'm extremely superstitious when it come to my hockey. I chose for the first game to wear a white shirt with my red jersey. I chose to eat at a Japanese place in the food court in Pentagon City. It was good but I could have done without the guys working there hitting on me. Steph and I get Auntie Anne's, a tradition of ours and then we are off to the game.

I saw on twitter that @knublesknights were at the game in section 120, so i saw them and got a picture with them. They ended up winning fans of the game. Go guys!!!

me with @knublesknights

Warmups

So after this, my phone started to die and wouldn't let me take pictures. For an awesome run thru of the game, check out the russianmachine blog. They are awesome.

I should be sleeping but as soon as I crawled into bed...


I couldn't sleep. I know. Totally annoying when this happens so I figured I would write my blog entry, maybe start some and update later. Or not.

So my day started at 6:00am. I hate being an adult sometimes. I went to work and did all the work stuff. Today, however, I got lunch out. What does that mean exactly? Well I'm glad you asked. It means that instead of staying in the program and helping get lunch out, feed people, and get them to bathroom, and maybe (if there is time) shove some food in my mouth, I get a whole hour and a half (yes, you heard me right. THAT LONG) lunch. Steph and Scott were suppose to join me for lunch but Steph had family
come into town last minute so Scott and I dined together at the Crazy Greek. I ate entirely too much. I went back to work afterwards and did more work stuff. FUN! *sarcasm*

Then at 3:30 (Tuesdays and Thursdays are my early days) I was off! I headed over to Steph's apartment to meet up with her and Justin and then the three of us were off to Washington for the Washington Capitals game vs. the Boston Bruins.


Yep. That is indeed a picture of the road. Thats us, traveling to D.C. So here we are, driving, Steph and I rocking out to some music when we look in the back seat and what do we find?



Justin fell asleep. So we took pictures. Seriously, do you expect anything less then us. Of course not. Oh and don't worry. This picture is on facebook for everyone to see in all it's glory. We also saw this nugget while driving down the road.

It's blurry. I know but I couldn't very well ask them to pull over now could I. In case you can't read it, the plate says 'PGH PA'. We couldn't help ourselves. So how about the Caps game. Well you know, now I feel kinda tired and that will be a post for another day and by another day I mean tomorrow. And by tomorrow I mean today, technically, and by today I mean, when it's not effing two o'clock in the morning.

Good night blogland.

ugh.

I seriously think that if they are going to run a rerun of the show I'm watching, they should check with me and play the episode I missed like half of. ANNOYING.

A weekly update.


"Hello out there. We're on the air. It's blog time tonight."

Let's catch you up on this week. Monday, I went to work. Tuesday, I went to work. Thursday, I went to work, and thennnnn. THREE DAY WEEKEND!
Friday I literally sat around like a blob. It was amazing. On Saturday, I went apple picking at Carter's Mountain. It was a nice fall day. I really enjoyed it. Sunday (today) I'm watching TV and sitting on my computer. Yay for relaxing.

How about the Capitals?
Well, they won in overtime, or as its becoming known as Ovie time. I believe my jinx of watching the game on TV continues. Every time I watched the games, they are losing. When I turn the game off, they win. I go to my first regular season game on Tuesday. Go CAPS!!!


Oh and found this picture. I love Ovechkin and all but seriously, how gay is this?

I know right. Super gay. Oh Sashas, Man up.

20 life lessons I learned in my 20's

or at least so far.

  1. If you’re smiling right now, you’re doing something right.
  2. It’s not so much what you say that counts, it’ how you make people feel.
  3. The biggest mistake you can make is doing nothing because you’re scared to make a mistake.
  4. No matter how it turns out, it always ends up just the way it should be. Either you succeed or you learn something. Win-Win.
  5. Freedom is the greatest gift. Self-sufficiency is the greatest freedom.
  6. If you catch yourself working hard and loving every minute of it, don’t stop. You’re on to something big. Because hard work ain’t hard when you concentrate on your passions.
  7. It’s not about getting a chance, it’s about taking a chance. You’ll rarely be 100% sure it will work. But you can always be 100% sure doing nothing won’t work. Sometimes you just have to go for it!
  8. Complaining is like slapping yourself for slapping yourself. It doesn’t solve the problem, it just hurts you more.
  9. The one with nothing to hide is always the one left standing tall.
  10. You can press forward long after you can’t. It’s just a matter of wanting it bad enough.
  11. There’s a big difference between knowing and doing. Knowledge is basically useless without action.
  12. In work and business, when they need you more than you need them, you have succeeded.
  13. Everything that happens in life is neither good nor bad. It just depends on your perspective.
  14. We are all weird. And life is weird. And when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we call it love.
  15. True friendship and true love do sustain the tests of distance and time.
  16. You can’t change who you are. You can only change what you know and how you apply this knowledge.
  17. It is okay to be angry. It is never okay to be cruel.
  18. Even when you feel like you have nothing, someone else likely has far less. Find them and help them. You’ll see why.
  19. Having a thousand credentials on the wall will not make you a decent human being. But genuinely helping one person everyday will.
  20. Remember, change happens for a reason. Roll with it. It won’t be easy, but it will be worth it.

'ello blogland.

Why hello there.

I guess I never blog anymore. Let's see if I can change that. No promises but we can see.

So whats going on in my life you may ask. Well...I graduated college. Thats right. After 5 long years, I have graduated. YAY! I also found a job in Richmond at Circle Center Adult Day Services. I'm the Wellness Coordinator there. I teach weight lifting, boost for bones, parachute ball, chair aerobics, and in charge of a walking program.

My love life you ask. Well I was dating this great guy and silly me, I got stressed out and got inpatient and got a little short and well...long story short, we aren't together anymore but we are still friends and hey who knows, if could work out again. Let's just say we ended on much better terms then the past bf and he actually treated me well.

So thats a quick overview. Guess I will let you go.
