Wow, congratulations! That is AWESOME!

Well, ladies, it's my first week at my new job! It's going well, and I think I'm going to be VERY happy there!

Also, my BF was supposed to leave for Israel today and had to postpone his trip a few days, so now he won't be gone as long...just 10 days of missing him instead of the full 2-weeks!

So, I can absolutely discuss it now, and you'll all be reading about it in the Triangle soon!

I got chosen to be a 2008-09 Leadership Consultant! I am stoked!

YAY! Congratulations! That is such an honor! You're like our own little GC celebrity of sorts! I hope you have an amazing time this next year and pop up on the boards every so often and let us know where you are!

Thanks! I'm hoping to blog my experiences and keep everyone updated. And of course, I'll definitely be keeping my new GC Sisters updated on my progress!

so jealous. My dream is to go to culinary school....just didn't realize it until about 5 years after college. Still have student loans to pay off.

THANK YOU...

Also, I am still paying loans from my jaunt in college (sans the BA!) and I have financed this journey COMPLETELY via loans....it may kill me down the line...

But I also look at it this way, I would love to have a BA, but for what I really want to do with my life...I don't need it.

To be honest the only reason I would finish getting my BA (I am only short residency credits at whichever university I choose to enter), is to obtain my MLIS and work in archives .... it would be nice, but a long way down the line.

My dream job is Cooking, Writing, Designing and Crafting each for 3 months of the year. Attending Culinary School (Pâtisserie & Baking program) is my first step in my dream.

This is the year of first step, starting with September 08 and realizing my dream of becoming a Sigma

SO COOL! It's amazing when you find your calling and a tasty one at that! Keep living your dreams and making Sigma proud!
