shiny shiny

life is good. let me count the ways...

• my last day of my summer job was friday. i'm sad it's over, because i really, really enjoyed it...but it's nice to have three weeks to just chill out before school starts.
• my last week of work went really well. i got all my projects done, and i spent a lot of time on tuesday, thursday, and friday after work chilling out with the other summers. i will miss my summer class, though. :( hopefully everyone will get offers, though, and we'll all be back at the firm in fall of '08.
  
• i'm in chicago until the 9th. i'm sad about leaving...but i'm so glad that i have the next few days to enjoy the city, and not have to get up at 7:15 in the morning to go to work. i'm also super happy that i'll get to see all my friends in st. louis soon...since i've only been back there once, and i was there for such a short time that i didn't get to see everyone i wanted to see.
  
• i saw the simpsons movie yesterday. you know what's amazing? the simpsons movie. i was skeptical, but the movie really delivered. it had the humour that makes the simpsons so fantastic, and was full of really funny one-liners from all the characters. i think i was laughing from beginning to end. it's a movie so good that i'm going to buy it when it comes out on dvd.
• just ten days before my vacation to new york city!! i still need to figure out what all i'm going to do there...but whatever i end up doing, it will be a blast. i can't wait. (if any of you readers have any suggestions for shiny things for me to do in NYC--i'm all ears!)

alright, time to go do something else shiny now...have some giordano's! :)
