Life after graduation so far

I graduated college from Ole Miss and now I am about to intern with my dad and brother's company. They are stock brokers. I got a book probably over 1000 pages that I need to study and know. Its going to be a 6 hour test when I take it whenever I take it if I want to work there. A lot of the people up at the office have told me its the hardest test they have ever studied for or taken. That is uplifting! I don't push myself a lot of times but I find myself pushing myself and desiring to know everything I need to know when the time comes to take the test. This is great considering I don't like to read too haha.On to the next thing that has been going on.

My brother asked me if I wanted to run a half marathon and as out of shape as I am I said yes. I can't stand running...never have liked it thats why I quit soccer. I am hoping one day I will love to run. My uncle saw my tweets and recommended me to get running shoes. My shins used to kill me when I run but he recommended going to fleet feet and they see how you walk and measure your foot width and length. I got fitted into Brooks and it makes running so much easier. I love the thoughts that go through my head when I am running and listening to whatever is on my ipod. I have trails from my house that lead to crocket park and its really pretty to run through. I know this is funny but things frustrate me when I am running...for example...I saw a guy probably about 18 years old today while I was running and he was blowing grass off his drive way...this part didn't bother me but the fact that he had on pajama pants a tshirt and (this is what bothered me) a short sleeve jacket..one of those jackets that is really fluffy with a lot of feathers in it. You could use those jackets as a pillow in my opinion.I just felt like punching that guy in the tooth...its like he knew i was going to run that route and he wore that to piss me off! I am dripping in sweat from the run and its really muggy outside and I see him in that and it just messes with my mind haha it makes me even hotter when I am running!

I moved back to Nashville and I am living with my parents until I make a reasonable income to live in an apartment. I have been dating Melissa now for almost 5 months now and things are going great. Its a weird transition not seeing her every day anymore. Something I have to get used to for the next two years as she goes into nursing school starting this August. I hope to see her every two to three weeks if thats possible. Shes going to be busy with nursing school and im going to be busy working.

Its kind of depressing that I don't really know who is in Nashville anymore. If I went to school at UT then I am sure I would have made friends from the Nashville area. All my friends are still in college and in their college towns. IF you read this and are in Nashville call me or text me or facebook me if you want to catch up! I would love your company!

That is it for now!

I am an Ole Miss Alum!

I transferred to Ole Miss three years ago and it is a neat feeling to say that I graduated from the University of Mississippi. I haven't written on here in over 6 months but that is okay since no one reads my posts anyway. God has blessed me in so many ways since November. I am so thankful for my family. My dad paying for my college. I have a lot to be thankful for. I now have a wonderful girlfriend Melissa! I couldn't have asked for a better girlfriend. I met her at a philanthropy she was in charge of for Phi Mu and didn't really talk to her that much there, but how things have changed. I went on a cruise over Christmas which was awesome

Right Now I am sitting at this condo my family is renting out in Panama City Beach! Its really nice. This is the nicest beach I have been to in a while. Navarre Beach is great too, but the beach here is bigger. I finally got Skype. I start my internship in about 2 weeks.

Thats it for now! I should write on here more often!
