The Cigarette Lady

                          Well last weekend I attended my first murder mystery party as Cindy Butt the Cigarette Lady! Of course I went all out for my costume and stayed up til midnight making my pin box hat and cigarette tray. I bought fake cigarettes and candy suckers to have more stuff in my box to "sell" to the people. My role of the night was to hate on Nick for leaving me for Molly. I also was the town gossip girl and knew secrets about everyone and could sell my secrets for money. I then poisoned Nick's drink (which thought I meant I killed him) but then the Chief shot him after me and ended up getting accused for killing Nick. The whole night was so funny, and everyone was really getting into character with accents, and lying, and hustling each other.

Everyone in this league has been playing for years and then there is us... haha we definitely stick out but how sweet would it be to be the underdogs and come out on top and win the whole thing?! Anyways other fun shenanigans lately have been Tyler Binghams 21st birthday party! I threw him a Luau themed party and everyone came in Hawaiian outfits, we had pina colada's, BBQ, mac salad, coconut cake, my hammock was set up, and then my favorite decoration of all was the "Hey Girl" meme's with Tyler's faces all over the backyard and fr...

Reality starts now.

  Well after having the summer of dreams and taking this last summer I had before school was over to really enjoy life and do whatever the heck I wanted to do was absolutley amazing. I was able to grow so much in many ways I never thought possible. It is so crazy to think I am in my LAST semester of college. I remember so clearly my first day at CGCC as a little awkward 18 year old thinking 4 years of this seems forEVER away. Graduating college seemed like the impossible and here I am today starting my internship to finish off this college stuff. I started last week with ADI Meetings and Events and I as I expected the first week was pretty slow and boring. I had to watch a bunch of boring tutorial videos on a software we use called Meeting Evolution. I did some other odd ball jobs just kind of getting used to things and what is expected of me and figuring out what I want to gain out of this internship. So far I have only met/worked with Sue, Margaret, Dallas, and Karen. Sue and...
