This summer has been wild. I haven't updated because so much has been happening. I got offered the job and now work full time as an analyst. Having a full time job isn't as bad as people say. It's a very laid back office with laid back people, and I genuinely like working 2-10pm. I've made friends with the night guard now and he's always nice to me. But I enjoy what I do and have met several good people. The sister of the man who owns the company I work for loves me. She wrote my supervisor an email gushing about how well I was doing and how much I impressed her. I've done so well since I started that I've already won an award for overall performance, but also am currently being cross-trained to begin a new project that only a select few have taken part in. I'm technically not supposed to share too much of what I do because I work with a lot of sensitive information relating to one of our biggest clients. Since taking this full time job, I've also managed to maintain both part time jobs. So now I work one full time and two part time jobs because I absolutely love working myself to the bone for no reason.
On the more sunny side of life I've had a very interesting summer. I saw both The Rolling Stones and The Who live in concert with insanely good seats for both. Seth and I went to see The Stones together and I will never forget the incredible time we had. Then a few weeks ago my dad and I saw The Who, and I will definitely never forget singing along to Pinball Wizard with my dad. Probably the most major thing that has happened was me buying my first car. My work schedule was getting too hectic and sharing a car with my dad was becoming impractical. I decided on the car I wanted then took weeks to visit dealerships and do homework on pricing. I was looking at pre-owned cars to save myself some money but at the end of the day it worked out better just to buy a brand new car. So now I have my very first car, and she is exactly what I wanted for both the interior and exterior. It's completely brand new so I'm the only one to ever really drive it, and that feels great. I've only had the car for a couple of weeks now but I'm in love, and I'm so proud to be able to say I bought it. I didn't lease it or buy pre-owned. I bought a brand new car and it feels amazing. I actually decided to finance half of it to give myself a credit boost.
I'm starting to learn more about what being an adult really is. I'm starting to learn about car payments, credit scores, bank checks, insurance, navigating office life, and becoming more responsible. It's a weird feeling to know you're getting older.
