ANOTHER Big Week!
Hola!
Hope everyone is having a great week so far! It’s hard to believe it’s Wednesday already right?!
Anyhow, a little recap action.
So Saturday was my first Summerbash with B96! (I went to one like a million years ago…but this was my first as an employee)
It was a blast. To be honest I really didn’t know what to expect. I almost had a heart attack getting there though because there was this insane accident on the way and I was stuck in traffic (as in not moving for over 30 minutes)! But I got there on time for my 10a-2p shift so it was all good.
I put the pics up in the new PICTURE section of the site – so check it out. J-Niice was joking with me since I was taking a ton of pictures like “oh you’re THAT girl”. The funny thing is I was THAT girl until the actual show started and then I was so in to it I didn’t take a single pic really!
I was fortunate to see the park empty – and saw everything being set up…and knew all the planning that went in to it, so to see that (and have pics like a dork) and then to see it in full force was nothing less than amazing. The listeners were awesome. I am not officially on the B96 website yet so people who won tickets to the show from me were actually looking for me to thank me and that was by far one of the best things for me personally. I can proudly and HONESTLY say, I love my job, I love my co-workers, and my first official big event with B96 was an A+! It really was over-whelming for me – and I can’t wait to do it again!
I have 2 funny stories to share.
1)I spent all day frickin Friday looking for something to wear. Like 2 weeks ago I saw 400 things I liked…but when I actually looked – NADA! I got something that was adequate and got a lot of compliments so I felt good…until I saw the pics online! OH DEAR JESUS! The shirt was a baby doll shirt and it was windy…and I look like I’m wearing maternity clothes! I nearly died. I know it’s lame – but if people didn’t make it to the show and this is the first they are seeing of me – I don’t want to get baby gifts ya know?
2)I LOVE TKA! OMG! You have no idea. I know every song, have every CD,etc. When they were performing (they were the flashback artist) my friend Lindsay was dying laughing like “Oh my gosh how do you know this?” (She had no clue who they were and so I had to school her). So anyway, I was going backstage with this guy Gil from the station and we were both talking about how much we love TKA and then all of a sudden Kayel was standing there (from the group)! So like a bunch of dorks were took pictures with him and were all giggly. He’s always running the board Sunday morning when I get to work and that’s the first thing he said to me the day after the show, “Wasn’t that cool how we met Kayel”.
Anyways, that’s all I have about that right now.
So what makes this a big week? Well for starters…
Make sure you send Tim Vander Tuuk a MASSIVE congrats! He won a Silver Dome award for News broadcasting (it’s like the Emmys of Radio). I love my Timmy! I miss my Timmy. WOO HOO! He was nominated before I left but I totally forgot last night was the ceremony. He text, “I’m the Champion! Sara call my parents” – I was like what the heck does that mean? Then he told me! I’m so happy for him. I hope someone gives that kid a fat raise so he can make me some more Vander Tuuks soon – Jake is going to be 2 next week! Can you believe it!
THEN, the other big news, my niece Katie is coming home to visit! She’ll be home Saturday, and she turns 21 on Sunday! WOO HOO! She’ll be here for about a month from Florida and then will go back to school. She is graduating early (from FSU) in December and will then start Medical School. My little braniac!
So, now I’m officially spent! I got nothing else right now!
On that note, I’m off to the gym – I figured I’d get everything online up-to-date since Kelly is gone and it’s quiet right now.
I changed all the music on the site and UPDATED “Rebecca’s Rumors” so check it out!
Enjoy the nice day!
XOXO,
R
