New Adventures Arising!

Hey everyone! I hope y'all are having a great Thursday morning! I just wanted to share with you some new and exciting adventures that have recently made an appearance in my life.



First of all, I applied for a job at fitness center as a front desk receptionist on Tuesday. I'm very excited about this job! I should know by next week sometime if I got the position. The shift right now would be the opening shift which is 5am-9am. The manager said that there will be a few dates in July where she will need a fill-in for the morning hours and then a permanent replacement when she goes back to teaching at a school starting August 9th. Its every Thursday starting in August and then here and there possibly in July on Thursdays and also working weekends in August if they need it. Starting in September, she said there would be additional afternoon hours to take if I wanted them, but I wouldn't work both shifts in one day. I would work the morning shift one day, and the closing shift 3pm-8pm another day. Its a pretty easy job, some of the responsibilities are light cleaning and working the cash register. But mainly your there to greet people that come in and answer phones. I hope I am accepted for the job because it would work out perfectly for college classes because I could work around school. She also said I could bring my laptop and do homework, which works out great. The job pays minimum wage, so if I worked every Thursday on the morning shift I'd be making probably around $100 a month. Which works out great for paying for gas for my car and other things. So I'm really hoping I get it! :)


The next thing is a couple months ago I auditioned to be apart of my church's adult worship team. I did my audition back in April and my worship pastor said I needed a little more work on my voice and I needed to come back and re-audition in a couple months. So I've been singing with my church choir and working with a good friend of mine who said she would be my coach. My worship pastor said that I'm more of an Alto range than what I have been singing which is between 1st and 2nd Soprano. So he said to rehearse and sing in the alto section of our church choir and work with my coach, then come back and audition again. What he is trying to do is train me so I can lead a worship service in my alto range, which is great! I've just not sang alot in my alto range, I've been singing 1st and 2nd soprano since I was 11 years old. So I'm supposed to have my re-audition sometime in July I think. So I'm very excited about that! :)


Finally, another brand new thing that has come into my life is my 14 week old puppy! He is such a ball of energy, and so cute! Although, he wakes up incredibly early. This morning he woke me up at 5am! I told my mom he's just testing me for being able to get up for work in the morning! Although, I would have to be up at 4am to get to work by 5am. But nonetheless, its still early when I don't have to get up for work at this time. He keeps me very busy, when he goes in to sleep around 8am-10am I do my school stuff and try to fit in some blogging time before he wakes up. He's still so much fun and if you want to see pictures, I have some in my earlier posts.


Alright, well I think thats it for new adventures in my life at the moment. I'll update y'all on my job situation as soon as I know more and also about my audition. I hope you enjoyed this and I'll be blogging again soon! Have a great day everyone!

Puppy Update and much more!

Hey everyone! I hope y'all are having a great Thursday morning! Well, my puppy Jay-Z is 13 weeks old and he doing very well. The only thing is he has to wear a collar for training and he hates it! As soon as we put it on him, he runs all over the house whining and yelping. He rolls around on the floor trying to get it off, I called my trainer to see what I should do and she said just put it on him and don't take it off. Its been 2 days and he still isn't used to it! My trainer said that he will eventually realize that it has to be on him and that he'll eventually forget its even on him. She said when she got her dog, she put the collar on him and he did the same thing but now he doesn't even realize he has it on.


So I guess things will get better....EVENTUALLY! The hard thing is, when he has his collar on he won't go to the bathroom. I guess he thinks that if he moves the collar will bite him :) So it has been a very long 2 days here at my house. I'm very tired because he's been waking up between 5:45am and 6:00am. This morning becasue he wouldn't go to the bathroom last night, my dad woke him up at 4:00am to take him outside, which he FINALLY went to the bathroom after about 10 and a half hours of not going. So I've been up since 4:00am, I went back to sleep for a little while but woke up at 6:45am. So I didn't get a whole lot of sleep last night. But anyways, thats what has been going on in my house the past couple of days.


Well, thats about it for now! Go check out my other blog www.mariah-cantstopthebeauty.blogspot.com because I might be posting an Ulta haul if I go over there today!!! :D Anyways, Have a great day everyone! :)

My puppy!!!

Hey everyone! I finally got a good picture of my 12 week old puppy, Jay-Z! Here he is:





I went to Petco today and I bought him a new toy. And OMG! He LOVES it!



Its one of those stuffed toys that look like a wiener dog, this one has a lion head on it and he was running back and forth from my hallway into my bedroom for about 20 minutes straight playing with it! :D

Anyways, thats the fun for today! I'll be blogging again soon! :)

New Addition to the family!!

Hey everyone! I'm so excited to announce that my family has a new addition to my furry clan of animals! I got a puppy on Monday, he is 11 weeks old and he is so cute! He is a Chihuahua/Dachshund mix and he keeps me very busy. He is like a little human baby, I only have a certain amount of time to do things I need to do before he gets fussy and he always wants to cuddle and sleep on my lap. I'm training him to be a therapy dog so I can take him into hospitals and see the kids smile. The greatest thing though is he sleeps through the night without a peep out of him the whole night! I put him to bed at 9pm and he sleeps until 6am, so he's doing really well! He hasn't pottied in the house at all since I've had him! :D My other dog likes him and he loves her! He'll follow her around when he's out with her and she is warming up to him. My cat still doesn't like him, but she's getting there. So my furry family grew from having 2 animals to having 3! He's so much fun and running around after him keeps my mind off my medical problems I'm having at the moment. Anyways, thats what has been going on in my life right now. My schooling is winding down for the summer and my last day of high school is August 17th, my 18th birthday is the 22nd and my high school graduation is the 25th! So there's alot of things happening all at once. And this June I'm busy every Saturday except for the 30th, so that should be fun. There's a couple saturdays that I have double events going on, so I'll be extremely busy next month!

So thats what has been happening in my life lately! Have a great night everyone and I'll be blogging again soon! :)
