La Vida Tombola

So a quick update....

Since the beginning of summer (May 18th to be exact) I've been working in Temple at Mclane Advanced Technologies writing (essentially) development user manauals as a Business Analyst intern. The people are awesome, but the task is boring! I only have 3 weeks left so I should be able to survive.

I am now a senior at Texas A&M University (WHOOP!) and after taking a 3 hr summer class, I can get my Aggie ring (double WHOOP!) this November! After this internship I'll only have to take 12 hours for each of my last 2 semesters as a college undergrad.

I recently took a mini-vacation to Lake Charles, Louisiana with one of my best friends, Alyce, and her dad. We stayed in the beautiful L'Auberge du Lac Hotel & Casino. I gambled for my first time and left without $230 that I had before I went. The trade-off is that Alyce was able to win/lose enough to get our room/food charges taken care of by the hotel. So I, essentially, paid what I would have to just stay at the casino... no such thing as a free lunch, eh?

As for the gambling thing... I may do it once more at some point within the next few years... just to see if I can get my money back... and probably never again after that.
