my feet hurt

Alright, so kinda lot have happened. so where do i start? 

I had my last day at work on Saturday. They had a big chocolate cake, and sandwiches and juice. it was good. Hard to leave those guys. I built really great relationships with all of those girls. Kathleen (the main receptionist) was all teary eyed when she left. she hugged me so tight and long. Everyone was sad to see me go but happy for my move up. 

I started my new job as Salon Leader in a smaller salon on Monday. I did a 8-5. I am doing training this week, and organizing and just getting used to the layout. All of the stylists I have met so far have been nice. I havent had a hard time or anything. Ive heard there is a stylist names Antonio to look out for. ugh, i think i can hanldle it. 

There is also this manager meeting for all the supervisors and managers every monday at 2. so i went to that... first time. didnt have any reports or anything yet. but it was good. I concidered as i sat there jumping in and going "So who gets there hair done here?" and when they all say they dont slap their wrist and get some clients! haha. 

Today I was ya know... doing my thing. and the LP manager (security) came by to say hi and showing me what she looks for in her monthly audits. She is super nice and awesome. real relaxed but uptight. haha. Well he hair is cute, and I said "so do you get your hair done here?" and she goes "no" and i go "LAME!!" and she goes "you think my hair is lame?!" haha. then i said "nono" and she goes "oh! cause i dont go here. well i go to my friend but im kinda mad at her so maybe i will." and i said "ya you should. I can do that." so... she said "alright. i will." so there is one person. haha. I ran into her later that day and we talked about it more. she basically said how someone came, got their hair done... and it was screwed up badly. so she is nervous. and we talk about how many people we will get if this goes well. if she goes to the salon, she can get everyone else to. so thats awesome. Then I walked in on her and the store manager in his office talking and she told him what I did and he was very impressed. He said that would be such a great huge impact for the salon and store. We just need to start a fire in the store and get a little wind going. so thats going to be great.

And even tho Daniel and I have told everyone we picked Berkeley, we still talk about going to UCLA. haha. He came to me a few days ago and goes "what if i want to go to ucla still?" he is so cute. not sure what to do. Its a hard choice for him really. Does he want to go to UCLA? UCLA really treats him nice. basically they will help up find a place, everything. and Berkeley doesnt do that. they are so negative, suprisingly. like if he called let them know right now "i picked UCLA" that they would go "GREAT! GOOD DECISION." really. they are weird about this. 

When I sit here and think... where do you really want to be? I have these two different reactions, Do I want a little extra cash with a job and no move in Berkeley... OR Do I want to live in LA near HOME where I want to live my whole life out and have a family of my own with my family right there for it all. 

its difficult to say. I would go to LA without even a thought about it. if he came to me and said "pack up, lets move to la" id say "leave everyone lets go now" haha. not really. but of course. thats my home. my dream. and yet... Berkeley is looking great. haha. no move, an extra 800 bucks in pocket. he gets an office. his best friend will be comming next year sometime. I would most likely have kids sooner here also. which i really really want. so really its like this:

UCLA: Moving to LA an hour away from home getting to go home every weekend and having kids in 2-3 years with money struggles (of course) but are home.

Berkeley: No move, with a job... saving up for a while then starting a family in 1 1/2 years to 2 years. with not as much money struggles

it kinda makes me think I am chosing between money or family. right? haha. I want daniel just to pick. and lets do it. Im ready to move if needs be... or keep this job for a few years and have some babies. so... its all for him. all of it.
