Seattle University School of Law - Graduation 2008

This Saturday, my friend Michelle graduated from Seattle University's Law School. I have know Michelle for ten years now, whoa how time passes us by. Michelle and I first met at Cal State Fullerton, in Southern California. We met at a new student orientation for SU Freshman from California. We ended up living on the same floor our freshman year in college and were roommates our Sophomore year in college. We lost touch for a while, but managed to find each other last year on, you guessed it, Myspace!
We were both living in Seattle again, and met up for dinner. It was like we never lost touch. Congrats Michelle! It was great sharing this special moment with you!

Update


I haven't blogged in a really long time, and I apologize. I have lots of catching up to do. I have been doing really well. I love my job and really love where I live.


This year has been pretty eventful so far, some good and some not so good. In January I celebrated my 28th birthday. I cannot believe that I am 28, where has the time gone. It feels like only yesterday that I was getting ready to graduate from high school and go off to college. It is so hard to believe that it was ten years ago.


In January, I traveled to Orlando, FL. for a week to attend a conference for work. I had never been to Orlando before, and I was a little disappointed. It was nothing like I expected. I have been to Miami before and absolutely love it there. The beaches are beautiful, the people are beautiful and the scenery is beautiful. Orlando was the total opposite. In Orlando everything is really spread out. We stayed at a beautiful golf resort, but we were in the middle of nowhere. You could not even see another hotel or shopping center in the distance. I imagined it being like Miami without the beach. The conference was great, I got to meet a lot of wonderful talented people in the industry, and cannot wait for our next conference in July. The July conference is going to be in Las Vegas! I love Vegas.


February was a emotional month for myself and my family. My uncle passed away at the young age of 54. He was an incredible and giving person. I have never met anyone more caring and giving than my Uncle Ronnie. I flew home to California to be with my family during our difficult time. My uncle holds a very special place in my heart and will never be forgotten.


In February, I also traveled to Las Vegas for work. I was there for a couple of days for another conference and had a wonderful time. I even won a little money playing blackjack :)


My parents came to visit us in March and we had a great visit with them. I love when my parents come up to Seattle. We went to some great restaurants and went to a comedy show at the Paramount Theatre. It your ever in Seattle and have an opportunity to go to the Paramount, I highly recommend it. It is beautiful in there!


Since I have lived in Washington, I have never been to the coast. R and I traveled to Ocean Shores and it was beautiful. It was not Newport Beach, but it was beautiful.

Well, that's all for now, I will post more this week. It feels good to be back!
