Well, as you can tell by the title pictures will not be posted today..... Because..... I’m at my lovely internship obviously working very hard.... and well so hard I don't have my camera cord to entertain you with pictures.... HOWEVER! I will tell you about my incredible adventures..... or not so incredible lol
Yesterday was a little busy. I had the joy of bringing Travis (my internship "boss" LOL!) a good morning smile around the hour of 7 am! The sun was shining so of course I was as well! (For the most part) Then I carried on through my classes nothing of any real excitement. I had a test if that counts for anything. After completing my test it was off to…. My internship! Yesterday instead of heading into the office as usual I headed to Manor Golf Course where RPA was having their annual golf scramble. I was given the pleasure of hanging out with Terry all day. We got along rather well (He’s into cars and such as well!) He was the grill master and eventually everyone came and ate and then I finally got to go to the house around 7:30. YAY!
I was thrilled to be home at a decent hour and did almost nothing of any real accomplishment besides spend time with my incredible roommate, Jessi!!! J We talked and chatted it up while I finally took the time to fold most of my laundry; terribly exciting way to spend my evening right?! Yes, I thought so.
Today then began again around 7:00, again brining Travis good morning sunshine! So far today I made a million phone calls sent a cotillion e-mails and that is about all. Around 2 I’m leaving to go to Canal Street which usually wouldn’t be as exciting as it is today…. BUT FRANKIE IS COMING!!!! I know it isn’t as exciting as spending time with him but I can be his waitress… second best I suppose.
So, now I will fill you in on my weekend. It all begins tomorrow again at that lucky hour of 7:00 AM; with coffee and donuts while on the way to the DODGE POETRY FESTIVAL! Which, should amount to almost a full day followed my an evening with Jess, Brittany and possibly other extended random friends. BUT what I am most excited about goes down Saturday at my favorite place, with Frankie at the track! IT’S THE BRACKET FINALS BABY! (Needless to say I can NOT wait!) Can you believe it, I AM NOT WORKING!?!!!!! I am thrilled to bring you this news. Okay, I suppose it’s time for me to get going… YAY! J

Presidential Corruption
This morning began early. After buttoning up my new blue shirt I headed of to the Sheraton for breakfast at the Sheraton. Auntie Anne herself, Anne Bieler spoke. She was lovely and inspiring; I also attempted to video tape her entire talk... with some success. Mayors, commissioners, presidents (Dr. Flynn) and even a Senator were present. I also had the opportunity to meet a new friend, Maria who actually just moved here from the Philippines. Her English was so good I did not even realize she was new to the United States. She is adorable and as the saying goes; I would love to just put her in my pocket.
After chatting it up with my new friend Maria I ran to the house to grab directions and head off to Kutztown to meet with Captain Johnessee about the possibility of becoming a Marine Corps Officer. We’ll see where I head with that one. But I do love the amount I could learn from a mere 3-4 year experience. Who knows…. Another one of my ideas….
On the way home I was suppose to head to RPA, but the family farm (dating back to the 1700’s when my family bought the land off of William Penn himself!) is just in Fleetwood, practically on my way home to reading, and it had been almost two years since I was last there. Only one of my great Uncles was left, my Great Great Uncle Joe. Uncle Joe is now 85 years old and lives his life as a 25 year old, at least in his mind. With the help of Joe, Aunt MaryAnn, Cousin David, Nan and a few others, the farm looks incredible! What a site to be seen. I loved my Uncles but they never were the neatest men… but now the house sparkles with originality dating back before any of us were even thought of! I am in love with all the natural, beauty! When I first arrived Uncle Joe had to briefly run to a doctor’s appointment so I showed myself around a place we use to bring Thanksgiving dinner for years and years.
My, my, my I’ll be sure to post pictures soon! Maybe it is because of the stories and personal family history tied to the farm, or just the historical thought about how my family can say they own the original house and property from when they first came to America from Germany as immigrants. Either way I love the farm. There are emus, peacocks, cows, lots of cats (but they are all “fixed” and no longer able to reproduce), geese and a beautiful pond. Soon Uncle Joe was back and took me on a tour after treating me to the opportunity to feed the emus and take home some gorgeous peacock feathers. He took me through the house and told me more about my other great great aunts, uncles and grandparents. I have heard so many stories but they never get old. I love how we have the original beds, desks, clocks and other various pieces of furniture. He told me more about the pie room and baking room, and pointed out the original outhouse. One new thing I learned from Uncle Joe was about the one room school house directly across the street from the farm, which he attended. Crazy! My family owns the original land, stone home and SCHOOL HOUSE! At least I think it’s way cool!
Well any way I know you most likely don’t care about “the farm” so I’ll carry on in my ramblings. I then proceeded home and went to Canal Street for work. The night was painless and paid okay. Nothing spectacular occurred and we weren’t completely dead so that was nice. Then I came home and studied and I’m sure you car about the rest of my detailed evening which has ended with this blog. More adventures to come.
Ps. Cast list posted later this week, GET EXCITED!
