Can I just say I had the very best birthday ever?! I know I always say that but this one by far was the very best ever. And I also need to add that I have the best friends ever for what they did for my bday.... And we'll leave it like that :) But for real, they are the best!
So anyway, my weekend was a blast! I got to see tons of people I haven't seen in a while and it was probably one of the top 5 night of my life! Between my first birthday celebration and getting my dream job, I had the best week EVER!
Now it's back to working and packing for me! My parents come up this weekend to move me and get me ready for my new job :) We're also going to have birthday celebration numero dos! I watched Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill last night... perfect way to start my week. They are filled with so much drama, I love! Other than that I don't have a whole lot to say. OOHHH but I did find this video of jram and i from valentines day.. doing our version of "doglover" from youtube. I'll share :)

it's the climb!
Ahh, I doo nott like Miley Cyrus or her voice but something about the lyrics in that stupid song I like.. hence the title. Did I mention how excited I am about this weekend?! I AM! I bought a lot of music last night so I can make a crunk CD for the way to Conway! Since I left my iPod in my moms car I can only use CD's now and XM doesn't always play all my favs! :(
Other than that I don't have a whole lot to say so here's something kind of fun....
*Name three things that scare you:
-tornadoes
-pessimistic people
-blood/medical things
*Name three people who make you laugh:
-clark
-erin
-tara stories
*Name three things that you love:
-bojangles
-sunny days
-weekends with best friends
*Name three things you hate:
-waking up before the alarm
-not having a piece of gum when i want one
-having to shave my legs
*Three things you don't understand:
-how people practice patience
-how people come up with some of the things they do...
-how anyone lives without knowing the Lord.
*Three things that are on your desk:
-pictures
-coasters
-nail polish
*Three things you are doing right now:
-typing.. duh
-listening to falling slowly by kris allen
-slowing working on my birthday list
*Three things you want to do before you die:
-sky dive
-go to Greece
-go on the Ellen show.. haha not really but that would be awesome!
*Three things you can do:
-rap
-cook some delish crawfish etoufee!
-wake board!
*Three ways to describe your personality:
-random
-happy
-loving!
*Three things you can't do:

Enjoy your weekend, I know I will! :)

*crunk*
The title explains well what I am... crunk! Boy, I'm going to have to work on my vocabulary if I'm going to be on the nightly news now :) Anyway, I am really exciteed because JRam is coming to Fayetteville Friday night and then we're headed to Conway on Saturday to celebrate my birthday with all of my friends there! So there is week one of my month long birthday celebration. AND I can celebrate getting my dream job, wooo hoo! Life is good! SO GOOD!
Anyway, here's a little about my job because you know I'm dying to talk about it. I will be working for KTVE which is located in the Monroe, LA/El Dorado, AR market. I will cover Arkansas news.. mainly just the southern part of Arkansas. I am sooo excited. They haven't broadcast news out of El Dorado for a really long time now so it's great to get it back up and going. Especially since there is still a studio, etc. So start thinking of story ideas and email them to me and follow me on twitter because you know I'll be updating so viewers can follow me every step of the way. You can find me @alexandrahale. I start May 11th and couldn't be more excited and proud of myself.
I still don't feel like it's real. I feel like this is a huge joke someone is playing on me like "haha we're going to tell you that you have a job but you don't!" It's honestly a dream come true... years in the making. And I'm so thankful for all the congrats I've gotten in the past two days. My phone actually went dead yesterday and that thing has one heck of a battery life! It's soooo rewarding to finally accomplish a goal I've had for years. I just pray for strength as I embark on this adventure! ahhhh!!
Anyway, I got off work early today and Rusty called me to come meet him at best buy to look at cameras. I needed his expert opinion... finally I chose the most perfect camera. It's weatherproof and shockproof! Now I can drop it allllll I want and my friends can drop it all the want and I will be just fine. I can also take pictures underwater :) Pretty sweet, eehh? Then we went and had a couple drinks and decided to go visit his friend and get some haircuts, yay! I needed one! Hallelujah!
I guess I can close the day as a happy girl! AND matt and kris were safe on IDOL! What more really can a girl ask for?! Can I just say one more time that... GOD IS GOOD!
xoxo :D

random things i've learned about life & myself
I'm not good at this blog business but here are some random tid bits... things I've learned or that I now know about myself! :) enjoy!
-i would be a bomb investigator! Not as in bomb, tick tick but as in I have excellent stalker skills and intuition :)
-I've finally come to realize that I don't need the people who have walked out of my life. If they are important enough, they come back and if not then I'm better off.
-music changes my mood, always.. for the better!
- i make decisions quicker than most. if i think it, i usually do it- there's no changing my mind once it's there.
-someday i want to be in entertainment news- not as in follow around celebs but as in music.
- i wouldn't mind being a personal shopper. please.
- i have ridiculously inconsistent taste... in music, boys, clothes, anything and everything. if you look at all the boys i've dated i don't think any have anything in common. also, some days i look like i stepped out of banana republic and others i have a punk/emo look.. and everywhere in between.
-i generally have a better day if my alarm is set to so small by matt giraud to wake me up! true story. or good morning beautiful :)
-i have to lay with my head and shoulders hanging off the bed each night for at least 2 minutes. it's the best, really... try it.
-my cell phone isn't my favorite thing. i screen, hard core now days. that is if i even get up to get it.
-my mom is waaay more like me than i would have ever imagined. or vice versa.... she's my best friend actually. i can tell her everything and she's just as silly and random as i am.
- i could eat a chicken berry salad everyday!
-i CAN NOT make plans. i think my hair turns gray trying to. i hate it!
-i hardly cry sad tears anymore, but then again i don't have anything to be sad about!
-i enjoy non slobbery animals now :) thats huuge!
-the feeling of helping someone is the best to me! even if it's something so simple, i try to smile at everyone i pass cause you never know whats going on in their life. maybe they need a smile!
- i've learned everyone has the right to THEIR OWN OPINION! who cares if they are up for miss usa.. if she doesn't think it's right then she doesn't... drop it!
-I LOVE a challenge! especially when it comes to relationships--weird i know. but i also have a hard time wanting things once i get them.
-i'm a pro at arguing. with myself or others-- i can talk myself into doing anything. good and bad.
-the best thing i've learned is that at the end of the day i know the truth about myself and my feelings and that's all that matters. only the One above me can judge me!
-finally, for today at least..... good things come to those who wait! :) :)

WHY?!
Well hello! Welcome to my blog! Why do I have a blog you may ask? I have no idea. Maybe I can make this entertaining thought so my dear bored sister will have something to do at work? I will try my hardest for you Lauren....
So I was watching the CMA's last night and it seemed like a lot of people were from Australia? That made me think, seriously.... how many people thought Jude Law was from Australia? Well guess what... he's not! So now you know... next time you try to name your GPS accented Australian man Jude Law because you think he's oh so delish, remember this..... Jude is British! Yeah, I agree, that's dumb. He looks like he'd be from down under.
Back to the CMA's... I love country music but I was not tooo entertained by last nights show. Everyone sang slow songs and I love it when they get crunk.... but noooo one did. I always like Taylor Swift though, she's so down to earth and grateful.
On another note, I am sooo soo excited about my birthday.... as usual! I'm ready for lake season to be here and to spend every weekend possible at the lake! I'm very thankful for my parents that they bought a boat a few summers ago and now they have finally answered my prayers and bought a lake house! They are the best :)
Anyway, I'm off work early today so I'm going to go to the grocery and get some yummmy fruit! And the suns shinin, I can't be sittin here on the computer!
