Well it's been quite some time since i've written a blog. I don't even know where to begin!!
Well summer came and went quite quickly...actually...huge lie! I felt that April-June was the slowest thing of my life! But July and August flew by like Superman on Red Bull.
So I celebrated my 21st birthday in NYC with my dad which was amazingly fun! Although I did come home to a lovely case of the sickies. Still not too sure what was wrong with me...but it was a weird sensation of wanting to faint every few minutes...not so pleasant.
I then went to Windemere Resort in Muskoka with my lovely boyfriend for our birthdays. We were gone for 3 days and 2 nights and it was absolutely amazing! Wish we were there again! Then of course upon my return...my weird sickies came back. Finally, near the end of June I get a phone call from a man by the name of Paul who offered me a job to work at Virgin Radio in Promotions on the Street Team. I nearly shit myself with excitement and accepted the job right away!
From June-August was just a complete world wind! From tons of events, travelling all over the city, meeting thousands upon thousands of people, and spending some fantastic quality time with le boy...all and all it was a fantastic summer!
A big Mazel Tov will have to be given to my boyfriends brother who got engaged over the summer! Thank G-d! I've never been to a wedding and i'm so jazzed to go! (do people still say jazzed? doubt it).
Working with Virgin Radio has been a mind blowing experience! It made me shed my insecurities to just get out there and just be! It's been absolutely amazing and i'm so honoured to be a member of the team!
I guess the biggest victory next to working for Virgin is I finally conquered my 8 year battle with Anxiety. After a brutal 2 months of exposure therapy...i can officially say...i no longer have vomit phobia! It's a fantastic feeling and it's like a huge weight has been lifted. I'm a stronger person because of it and i wouldn't have gotten through it without the overwhelming support of my family, friends and boyfriend. I will always have anxiety to a certain extent (because everyone does) but aslong as it doesn't control my life...i will be a-okay!
School has begun and i'm in my final year of Radio Broadcasting. We were all welcomed back with a shit-load of responsabilities and assignments! Not only am i a full-time student and work part-time with Virgin Radio, i'm now on the management team for S@Y radio, i have my own radio show Wednesdays @3:00 (go to http://www.sayradio.net/ to listen), and I still have homework. Talk about over-kill!!!!
We've also lost a few good people in our program who no longer have the 'passion' for radio...to them i say: Good luck and we will miss the heck outta you!
It was my 2 year anniversay September 20th and it was a beautiful evening! We went out for dinner to my favourite restaurant where my bf surprised me with a beautiful ring. Now, I've been asking David for a ring for over a year now...and i didn't think he was actually going to get it. Wrapped in a relatively large box i was skeptical. I open the box to see a Holts box (i think to myself...hey it's from Holts...i'll take it!) of course i open it up to see a Raptors Jersey....(now, right then in there i was going to dump his ass haha but i decided to open up the jersey), inside the jersey was a little Tiffany Blue Box...*heart stops* i open the box to see a little pouch *heart sinks* (i thought it was a bracelette) i open the little pouch and a ring plops into my hand *tears form*...i burst into tears and freak out and was overwhelmed with excitement. Needless to say i am the luckiest girl in the world...not because of the ring....but because of the guy who presented me with the ring. This guy has saved my life in more ways then one and i will love him until the day my heart stops beating.
Well, that's it for today...i have to get on writing an assignment for Radio News.
Till next time!
TTFN!
