it was my first day!!

as i got ready this morning it felt just like the first day of school...but it was my first day of my new job!! and let me tell you - i LOVE it! for all of you that don't know ... i got a job in park city! (side note: i am kinda sorta obsessed with park city, so getting to work there is like a dream come true) anyway...i love it and all the people i work with. they were all so friendly, kind, and welcoming! i got to go to lunch at cafe rio ... yum yummm ... oh and, for the 3 whole days i was without a job i was literally going crazy!! I'm so incredibly happy i found a job quickly, i don't think i would be able to stand having any more free time. anyway...i love it here in utah :) minus that serious lack of friends. but I'm sure that will change quickly - or at least i hope so! well...i'm off to golden spoon with crystal now!


love, jess

i made it...

as of 6 o'clock mountain time, saturday, i was officially in utah, car unpacked, and eating dinner at my new home. i went to my new ward yesterday...and then just hung out at home with crystal. we watched 5 movies, were a little crazy, and complained about the snow (what was i thinking moving to utah?!) haha. but its been great so far! off to provo today for some fun :) miss you all!

love, jess

AH! I'M SOOO EXCITED!

i'm sitting at crystals while she packs to go to utah! my car is all packed up...no wiggle room what-so-ever, but it all fit!!! :) i'm starting to get real excited! YAY!!!!!!!!!!

The last day…

Today is my last day in Washington. it’s a bitter sweet day. Last day of my job of 3 years. Last day of the beautiful pacific northwest…onto the wonderful state of Utah! Leaving the life I have known for so long to go out and experience life, make new friends, enjoy new experiences, and so much more! I seriously can not wait, but at the same time im nervous!! Tomorrow at the wee hours of the morning I will take off…all my belongings shoved into my little car and make the LONG drive to salt lake with my bestest friend crystal! Ill let you know how the drive goes!!! :)

day 13...a letter to someone who has helped you recently

there have been so many people that have helped me recently that i couldn't possibly pick just one...so to all the people who have helped me recently (you may or may not realized you have) but everyone has made a huge impact on me and my huge decisions lately. thank you for all the love and support you have showed me…it has been more helpful and appreciated then I probably voiced!

oh my heck...i just need to vent!!!

so clearly i am leaving my current job...i mean, hello! i am moving! for some reason, my co-workers don’t seem to understand the concept. like they thought i would start working at 18 and end up retiring there..sorry people...i do have a life, i mean maybe want to go out and experience the world...weird concept i know!! (well, not really! i mean...gosh!). anyway...to finish my complaining, everyone is being rude to me because i am moving. they are yelling (like literally yelling) they are giving me all the crappy stuff to do, and honestly making me that much more excited to move! ah!!!!!!!! i just wish people would be nice! like seriously, how old are they!? because i would assume they are like...uh, 5! anyway...that is all for now!

love, jess

i am so behind.

so remember how i said i was going to blog for 30 days straight?? ya, i kind of suck at it. i got to day 12 and then BAM!...nothing. went to hawaii, got distracted by the beautiful sun...and i'm not going to lie, i totally forgot about blogging...my bad! so today i'm going to start at day 13 (lets just pretend that i didn't skip like a bagillion day k?..okay!)

oh, and to give you a quick little update of my life...i went skiing in utah a few weeks ago with my friend bryan, we went skiing i fell...hard. ski patrol had to take me off the mountain. it was embarrassing, to say the least! then i went on a lovely vacation to hawaii with my dear friend chelsey! we were in kona, and it was fabulous! a week was not long enough, but i thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it! i can home tan and gimpy with my beautiful knee brace (just so you can get a visual...the brace does not allow me to bend my knee and it goes from my thigh to my calve!) its real cute!
but for right now my room is in total disarray...the packing has begun and its complete and total chaos! I’m so excited but nervous to make my big move to salt lake! But I know if will be wonderful and I will make lots of new friends and do a tremendous amount of growing! I’m finally leaving Washington, my home. I’m leaving all my friends and family and going out into the world on my own. You all probably wonder why I would leave the place I have always known as home…well there aren’t really words to describe it fully. I will say that I know that I am doing what is right for me and I am going where I need to be right now…and I’m so ecstatic about it! Remember people…I’m just moving! It doesn’t mean I love you any less…it just means, well, that im moving. i will try to be better about blogging about my new adventures, my new friends, new loves, new life! AH! i can not wait!!!
