Sunshine

Hey everyone!

Well, today was a rare and beautiful day. All week we have been slow at Speedy (ha!) leaving me with small tasks such as vacuuming and punching holes. Due to the slower pace I was offered the afternoon off, and even though my job isn't very stressful I was in need of some time away from my cubicle.

I decided to grab some lunch and sit outside in front of my old haunt, Biggin (the art building). It's a beautiful day and the first day of spring. Goregous! I soaked up a little sun and read an amazing book called 48 Days To The Work You Love by Dan Miller. Basically it discusses everything conerning your "vocation/career/job" but in a spiritual light. If you've just graduated and are swimming around in the job pool, I would highly suggest this book. I am only half way into it, but it has given me a sense of comfort and boosts of encouragement that I've been looking for.

I do have some new updates for you by the way. Let's start with the bad and end with the good. I got another generic HR rejection e-mail from Dave Ramsey. Granted no tears were shed over this rejection and I actually found it amusing. After recieving dozens of these kind of e-mails you start to see a pattern. Is there an HR template for that kind of thing? Probably. Ah well, at least it's closure.

Now on to the good news. I have an interview with a firm in Athens, Alabama on April 2nd. It's called Mindvolt and another Auburn grad works there. Apparently they have six dogs that hang out in the office, so that should be interesting seeing how I'm more of a cat person myself. I'm excited to speak with the creative director, Chad, because we met a year or so ago when he judged the student show. Regardless of how things work out, it should be a good experience.

In other news, my brother Jason and is fiance Jeanne have been in Honduras for the past week on a mission trip with our campus ministry. I'm eager to hear their stories and see the pictures from their trip. Oh and on Sunday I'm headed to Passion City Church in Atlanta with my new small group from Church of the Highlands. I haven't visited this particular church to see what they're all about but I'm going to on Sunday to see for myself. I truly enjoy the small group because it's for post-grad and graduate students. It is SO refreshing to be surrounded by people my age at a similiar place in life as well as the content of our small group is spot on. We are talking about discerning God's will for our life, how to make decisions, finances from a spiritual point of view as well as sharing what God is teaching us daily. Ahhmazing.

Well I'm going to get some work done around here, but I hope each of you have a beautiful weekend!

As always, thanks for stopping by!
