'NEW' News

Well, I can officially say that I have a job now! I was actually hired about a week ago but I wanted to make sure that I completed the first few steps before announcing it to anyone. So, my new job will be as a Media Sales Consultant - fancy title for 'salesperson' - for Yellow Book USA. For those of you who don't know Yellow Book, they are the largest (I think) company producing business advertising in print (the yellow pages) and online. So, my job will be to acquire new clients by getting them to advertise their business in our book and online. It might not sound too exciting, but the company is a good one to work for and their product is great. I leave next Monday for 3 weeks of training in Connecticut, but I'm more nervous about driving there than I am about the actual training! I mean, it's only 1 1/2 hrs drive, so it's kinda close actually...but I just got my NEW CAR!!!, so I'm nervous.

Yeah, so I got my car on Monday, and it is awesome! It's a 2008 Hyundai Elantra, and it drives beautifully. It had a whopping 13 miles on it when I drove it off the lot! I took some pictures:





So, a lotta new things happening :) I will keep you posted on how the job goes, and if I was able to make it to Connecticut without getting lost!

Rockport!


Hey there! Aaron and I just came back from Rockport, which is north of Boston, on an incredibly beautiful day and I just had to post pictures! It's a little fishing type village, with tons of cute and quaint little shops and amazing photo opportunities. Neither one of us wanted to leave and decided that we could definitely see ourselves in a summer home there ;) What made it even more awesome than it already was was the Fall-like weather of a high of 70 degrees and bright sun. We're supposed to have more days like this in the next week, which is just awesome because it totally makes everything seem so perfect in life...even when I don't have a job or a car!

I have an entire day blocked tomorrow for an interview. I'm hoping that all goes well and that there is a job offer in my future ;) So, cross your fingers, everyone!!

Ok, here are some of the pics I took today:
