Boston home of...SPORTS.

Hello my lovely family and friends,

I know many of you are curious what has been happening with me, it has been almost 2 months and I've been pretty silent. Well, there was some reason for that.

In May there just wasn't much to write. I moved in with my friend Michelle and enjoyed some Florida weather, I went to the beach a couple times and I tried not to freak out as I looked for full-time and part-time work.

I did get to see some great people during the month (thanks to my birthday and Michelle's being a great excuse for a trip!) our friends Alaina and Julia came to visit the weekend of my birthday and the following Monday Alaina and Michelle took me to Universal for the first time! I totally geeked out and loved it! I got a Transformers tank top and a Jurassic Park key chain but I loved everything! Well...except I made them go on a ride Michelle said was lame, claiming that I liked the idea but....it was lame. Very lame.

Then Katie came to visit for Michelle's birthday, it ended up being a great week of birthday celebrations and was a great way to have an unemployed birthday. I did find a part-time job working for Marshalls as a cashier, I worked for 4 days. But I had to leave because.....I got a job in Boston!!!!

That is right I am now working in the Bank Loan department of State Street Corporation. It isn't a boring as it sounds, the company is really cool and a mainstay in finance (you should google it...) and I have a job! Needless to say I had to leave Florida kind of quickly, I got to stop off in Georgia, I stopped at the family reunion and got to spend time with the most important person there, my new nephew :) he's so cute.

I had a couple weeks of extreme confusion, during my slow move from Florida to Boston I was getting contacted from another company that was extremely interested in hiring me. And for those of you who know me well I don't do well with personal decisions on a timer. I was stressed and confused, it was in VA so I would be close to my parents and closer to Kate, Ron and the baby but...it wasn't right. I love State Street and I love the opportunities I will have here in the future.

I'm sorry I haven't kept you guys updated but I wanted to have some definite news before I told you all something and then changed my mind, like, I don't know, leaving for Africa and coming back a week later. I've been there and done that and learned my lesson, no sharing until I know what I'm doing.

I do have one more thing. Apparently I do not love sports, professional sports to be specific, enough to live in Boston. If someone feels like it, it would be much appreciated if I could be guided to a book, article, website that kinda dumbs down Boston sports for me? I am at a loss...and definitely need some knowledge.

Well, that is all the news I have for the moment, I plan on posting a little more regularly now that I'm in one place but we will see. I love you all for your support while I haven't thanked you all personally I cannot express what it has meant to me to have so many people in my corner hoping for my life to work out. I hope in the future I can help someone out as much as you all have helped me, it is definitely owed.

Love you!
Chloe
