The month of December is probably my absolute favorite month of the entire year. It is one of the most eventful months for me every year. There is always soooooo much stuff going on, and so much to do, and I love every minute of it!!
There are several holidays that are celebrated around this time of the year, but for me the holiday is Christmas!!!! It is my favorite holiday and I am always in the Christmas mood pretty much from the second Thanksgiving is over.
I love all of the Christmas decorations that you see everywhere. And all of the Christmas music. I NEVER get tired of it. There are so many parties to go to, and friends and family to be around. It is just a joyful and happy time of the year.
I am a little down this Christmas though b/c I am not going to be able to put up all of my Christmas decorations in my room like I always do. The reason for this being that when I moved home from Mobile I had a whole bunch of stuff that I had to bring in and it is all over my room, so there is no room for my Christmas tree or anything. It is also going to be the first Christmas since my grandmother passed away in September. So it will be a little bit tougher than usual, but there is still so much to be happy and thankful for this Christmas.
The MOST EXCITING thing about this Christmas is I am going to NEW YORK!!!!!!!!!!!
I have dreamed and wanted to go to New York since I was in 8th grade. And in 8 years I have never been able to go or had an opportunity. But now I am finally getting to go. I actually leave a week from today on the 11th and will return on the 21st. I will give more details about this later in another post.
I once again have been away from the blog for a few days. I have missed my “…Of the Week” blogs and all kinds of stuff in the past couple of weeks. Things have been crazy in and out of the hotel. I got part of my braces off, and I get the rest of them of on this coming Monday. I will DEF blog about it when I get home!!
December is also a time to look back and reflect on everything that has happened over the year and in my opinion the last chance to make that year count.
2009 hasn’t been the brightest one on the Caleb Graham highlight reel, but this month is going to make up for all of that!!
Have a wonderful December!!!!
PS I also picked a new layout for the season!! Lemme know if you like it!!
I had to take just a moment to tell you about my new job which I absolutely LOVE!!!!
I am working at the new Oasis Hotel at Victoryland. It is a brand new 300 room luxury hotel that is totally worth your time and money!!!! I still drop my mouth open every time I walk in the place it is absolutely amazing!!
I am working as a front desk agent and concierge and loving every second of it. Never would I have thought that I would have so much fun working in a hotel. I’ve learned just in a couple of weeks how much I really enjoy serving people and being a part of the hospitality industry. It is very rewarding. It always feels so great when you make a customer happy and they leave satisfied.
There isn’t much else that I can think of to say at this time. All of the people that I work with are just incredible and we all get along so w
ell. It is seriously like one big happy family that I feel so blessed to be apart of.
I will leave with some photos of the hotel!!
Today and tomorrow is our Grand Opening celebration and it is going to be awesome!!
We are having The Temptations and Randy Owen from the country band Alab
I thought I would continue with the Carol Burnett and Vicki Lawrence theme this week, b/c to me this is just another one of those videos that I laugh every time I watch it b/c it is so stinkin funny.
In this one, Mama is lettin Eunice have it. There are two versions morphed into one and it is a riot!!
In a promo shot Tuesday, the singer and “SNL” castmember Bill Hader put their spin on the encounter.
Standing in a 30 Rock corridor, the promo opens with Hader on his cell phone while Swift says, “Hey, I’m Taylor Swift, and I’ll be the host and musical guest this week on ‘SNL.’ ” As she completes her line, Hader gets off the phone and tells the star who he was talking to. “Whoops, Kanye West just called. He thinks Beyoncé should host instead,” he said. “Funny joke, right?”
Swift rolls her eyes and whispers to herself, “Wow.” Hader then awkwardly says, “Good times,” before walking off the set whispering to himself, “Hader.” The two share a laugh after they complete the sketch.
In an interview with MTV News before she went off to shoot the promo, she said nothing was off-limits this weekend. “I want to look nothing like myself,” she said. “I told all the writers, ‘Don’t count anything out.’ I want to go completely, 100 percent in. I don’t want to be halfway involved. Just because I have a lot of things to do as far as being musical guest and host doesn’t mean I don’t want to live up to my full hosting demands.”
I was absolutely disgusted when I heard this story the other day!!
Ok so I am at work on my lunch break the other day and we are talking about the H1N1 or swine flu whatever you wanna call it. And one of the girls I work with told us this absolutely disgraceful story.
Since there is a shortage of the H1N1 vaccines they are letting people with certain health issues get them first like pregnant women, kids, etc…
Well this lady went to her doctor and lied to them. She told them that she was pregnant so that she could go ahead and get her shot. CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?!?!?! Then on top of that she posted about it on her Facebook page!! Is that disgusting or what?? My co-worker was her friend on Facebook and for sure defriended her after she posted that as her status.
I mean come on!!!!!! Seriously?????? You are one twisted human being lady!!
I have a friend who has a friend who’s son is in a coma right now b/c of swine flu.
So to you lady whoever you are. I hope that you feel good knowing that there are people little kids dying from this flu and you are lying about health things just so that you can get yours and you are not even sick.
