I'm in love with March!!!
This month has been fabulous. The stress and the work load has been tremendous, but I've never been happier!! Going hone every day exhausted but knowing that you've accomplished something is wicked.
So sum up... The car is finally fixed. I had to get 2 new tires AGAIN, but it's working fine now. One of my best friends had a baby girl this week. Her name is Avian Alexis, and I have been given the honor of being her god mother.
Valentines Day was fantastic, Chris got Raven a pink rose, a box of chocolates, and pink balloons. No one has ever done a valentines day event for Raven. She loved it, then he pulled out a card for her that he bought, "To a special Daughter" I nearly cried, it was so perfect, I fell in love with him a million times again that day. He got me a red rose, some pink balloons, a card from Raven with a "World's Best Mom" magnet in it (its my first one and I love it) Chocolate covered pretzels (my favorite) and sour keys and oh yeah he got raven hugging teddy bears. I got him a white rose, hugging monkeys that sing, we got matching utility knives LOL (DORKS.. I needed mine for school and he likes them too) lots of little things that I can't even remember anymore, all I know is that it was hands down the BEST Valentines Day to date.
Also, we celebrated our 2 year anniversary. If feels like longer.. in a good way. All I know is that I'm with someone who I truly love, and I wouldn't trade him for all the tea in China... hmm... or all the chocolate covered pretzels in the Bulk Barn... mmm....bulk barn....
Chris had his 27th birthday on Feb. 28th. I got him an ice cream cake from Dairy Queen with a picture of R2 D2 on it. It said, " Beep Beep 27"
When asked why it said that.. I simply stated that if R2 D2 were saying Happy 27th Birthday... he would say Beep Beep... not necessarily 27... but you get my idea... Chris loved it... that's all that mattered lol.
My Instructor Steve gave us the option of some extra work last week, to which of course I was all for. We had to do a Public Service Announcement (commercial) for the Brain Association of Nova Scotia. We were told if it was good, it may be on air worthy. So Eric (a classmate) and I were asked to Produce and we alternated Directing (we did 4 different takes).
On the last day of shooting, our Instructor came to us and asked if he could put some more pressure on us, which we said "Of Course". Him and Yvonne were so impressed with what we had done, they nominated us for the Broadcast Educators Association of Canada National Student Awards!!!!!!
Which means.... our PSA will be competing with all other schools in the country for the top award. the winning PSA's will be aired on TV next year in an hour long special, and we'd go to Toronto to get the award!!
This is an amazing honor for a first year student. It solidifies my decision to go back to school. To finally be doing something that I'm getting credit for being good at, and having a blast doing it!! I can't believe I'll be paid to do this one day!!
To add the icing to the top of my cake, CBC Sydney contacted me. I'll be working for them all of the month of May!!
I am so happy and excited and happy and excited now.
That'a about it for now.. I promise to update more frequently... ooh ooh .. my Dad and my brother are coming up this weekend, I'm going to Fredericton on Saturday to get my stuff... Wo0t DISHWASHER.. Wo0t BBQ ... ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
Anyway, must go and make a lumberjack breakfast for my big love and my little love.
