Meanwhile in Texas..

Okay so it's been a long while since I've posted! I'm here on first Spike and lets be real, it's been hard..like REALLY HARD. The living situation is iffy big in a cool location, and as support team leader the office I'm in hasn't really 100% known what to do with me. HOWEVER, I was driving around in my sexy fire truck red 15 passenger van the other day and if hit me..SUCK IT UP. When else will I ever have the experience to spend 2 months in a random city (conveniently located super close to Dallas) with 22 strangers?! Plus this week I feel like my skills are finally being utilized in the actual work place. All in all I have if good, and I love Texas far more then I thought I would. Being so close to the city allows for free concerts, amazzzzing volunteer opportunities, and sexy hipster men. While I'm taking the good with the bad, it's mostly been great and if I ever doubt it again all I need to do is go for a drive.

So it's been a month since I posted last, and that's because TLT has had me sooooo busy!! Ahhhh. Okay so all my fellow team leaders are amazing and my room mate is perfection. The training sessions each day have been hella long but over all these few weeks of training have flown by, I feel ready to rumble! I'm excited for corp members tomorrow; it's gonna be a long day shuttling to and from the airport but it's gonna be worth it to start these next 10 months and to get the ball rolling!
