Open your heart to me

What a week! I survived four longggg days at the aquarium! Working in the gift shop is much harder than youd think, especially when it involves screaming kids, rude parents, a build-a-fish machine(similar to build-a-bear) and airbrush tattoos. That pretty much sums up my life 40 hrs a week. Thankfully tomorrow is my day off :) Enough work talk, here are a few thoughts-

1. Communication is key. With that said- call me, beep me, if you want to reach me.

2. I dont like the combination of peanut butter and chocolate. But i will eat them separate any day.

3. I miss Monterey. Things were much simpler there. This past month has left me wondering, confused, excited, bored and wanting more. I have realized that my life is no longer at home with my parents in San Pedro, but rather up at school where ive built the more recent part of my life. All im home for is work, work, work, and more work. I cant tell you how much i miss the college life. Dont get me wrong, i love being home with old friends and family, but im longing for the life of a free bird. Also the distance between me and many friends makes things that used to be simple, much more complicated. I dont know what it will be like when we all return, but im excited and hopeful for the upcoming semester.

4. Oh and i must say i had a wonderful time with a few of the best people around last night. Duane, Denver, Anneke, Chelsea, Sam and I all met up for dinner in Downtown Disney. It was so fun to have Duane and Anneke in SoCal!

I think that about covers my midnight blog, which i must say replaced a midnight snack. This working girl is off to cuddle up with her latest book, Slightly Single. Unfortunately, thats about the only thing ill be cuddling up with for awhile.

Love always, Ashley
