Freedom Trail

I am trying to make sure I hit all the major spots and I actually do really enjoy seeing all the history sites (Erika are you proud?) I did some freedom trail this week on my day off. It was extremely hot and sweaty but I still enjoyed it. Forgive my hair in the picture, I did not have time to do anything with it + humidity = bad hair day. But, this is me chatting with the freedom trail actors. They act in character and it is entertaining. Me and Henry were alone on the adventure, I was babysitting for Mel. So I made sure he had a hat and sunglasses and I kept him well hydrated, he never cried! I'm such a great aunt :)

Temp Job

So today my job is at Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories. Yeah and everyone is Japanese (Jess you would love it) So my list of phone extensions has a lot of really weird names, I was a little worried with this because I have a hard time understanding people with accents and now I would have to try and understand all these very foreign names. For example, Vijay Shilpiekandula, now how would you pronounce that???? Well my worries soon went away when 9 and then 10 and ten 11 past and the phone never rang. Yes it is now 3:14 and I have answered and transfered one call. Much to my surprise the caller spelled out the name of the person he wanted to reach, he obviously did not know how to pronouce their name either. So what do I do for eight hours sitting at a desk and the computer???? Well, I have been looking for suggestions, but so far it consists of a lot of online shopping or wishing I should say because I have no money, studying for some online classes, listing and relisting my apartment on craigs list, KSL and the BYU off campus housing website, catching up on the news, and celebrity gosspip, o and I can't forget facebook, I found some old neighbors. Anybody remember the kings who lived on the corner? Well they are all on facebook, seem to be doing well, the girl in the fam got married last year, looked like a festive wedding. Back to the point, I am looking for suggestions of website or other fun things to do. Remember I have the full internet and lots of time on my hands...I am thinking Chelsea would have some excellent suggestions of websites she regularly follows...so give me a list. I also thought maybe I could take surveys and get paid to take them so then I would be making even more money by the hour.....
And answer to some questions my temp jobs have mostly been one day jobs I am hoping to get a long term job just so I know I have a job everyday and a pay check everyweek. But I have been working pretty consistently everday so I have nothing to complain about. Sometimes they call you the day before for your assignment and sometimes they call you the day of. I just take the address put it in my phone and I am on my way! It is nice to have a different job everyday, keeps it interesting. Today I was privilaged enough to receive a name tag, see picture!
All my love....

Henry's Cake

I decorated a small cake for Henry on Sunday. It was last minute so it is nothing glamorous but I think it turned out cute. I only have 3 pictures but I'll get some more of Mel's camera of the cake before Henry destroyed it. He made a good mess, but I think he enjoyed the cake. He was a little confused at first and a little upset when everyone was staring at him and singing to him but after he tasted the sugar he got over it. It was a fun evening!

p.s. my cake skills were rusty but it made me want to start decorating cakes again, it is fun!!!

So far in Boston.....

Boston is a very cool city, I am really enjoying myself. I know you all miss me very much, so I thought I would keep you all updated on my totally glam lifestyle through a blog.

I must say I owe all my success in Boston thus far to my droid incredible, this thing is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.....it gets me every where I need to go and reminds me of what I need to do, and it talks to me. What would I do with out it.

I get around by bike and public transportation. Don't worry, Mom, I am wearing my helmet and lots of reflectors. I enjoy public transportation a lot for some reason. It is a fun way of getting around the city, and very quick I might add.

Me and Henry have been hanging out a lot and I think we have become buddies. He still likes his mom more, but at least I am the favorite aunt :)

Well it is time to sign of for now, I love You all dearly!
