Big Things

Seriously... Big things are happening for me right now. And I think that they're also fantastic things.

For starters I'm moving... See I was living in an apartment in Winnipeg... Then I moved back into my parent's house (specifically their basement.. Can you say cliched?) because I started working full time for my dad again... And now I'm moving far, far away. Not really actually. I'm just moving to Kenora. I feel okay saying that just cause for the most part all my readers are family and friends.
For me this move is a huge deal. Mostly because I'm doing it almost entirely on my own. I grew up in my parents' house (Duh!) and then when I moved out, I moved into an apartment my dad was paying for. And for the past five years or so (not counting when I was in college) I've been working for my dad. Don't get me wrong, I love working for my dad. But I figure that since I'm 21 I should be able to do this all on my own. Right?
So I'm moving out to Kenora to live with my best friend. Instead of living in my parent's basement I'm going to live in hers. =) And instead of working for my dad I'm going to have to be brave and find myself a new job. Probably two. We'll see.

Another big thing for me is that I've just turned 21... I'm legal everywhere. But that's not the reason I consider it a big thing. The reason it's such a big deal for me is that I'm finally at the age where I need to really be an adult. I tend to regress to my childhood years occasionally... Mostly just when I'm with my sisters. But as fun as that always is, I figure it might be time for me to grow up just a bit. I'm not saying all work and no play... But I am saying that maybe a little less play and a little more work wouldn't be such a bad thing.

Another big thing is that my dad is contracting a humongous job for us. It's worth a lot... It has one number and then like 5 zeros or something. And because of this huge job coming up I'll be able to set aside money for when I move. And I can probably pay off my entire loan.. Which I just got.

And the last big thing happening right now is... I bought myself a brand new vehicle! It's not actually new. But it's new for me. After my little S10 got all banged up I was without wheels for quite a while. It was sad. But now, after a lot of saving and some looking I found myself a beautiful 2006 Chevrolet Equinox. And the best part is that I bought it on my birthday. =) So now we're processing all the paperwork and then in September me and my parents are going to be picking it up on our way back from Virginia. My Equinox is all the way in Cleveland... Quite a ways away don't you think? But it's going to be a very exciting day when I get to drive it home!

And I think that's everything going on right now.

I'll be sure to write all about my big move when it comes around. Bye now!
