1st week in Houston

Wow...so I just completed my first week back in Houston...so far...so good!!! My parents came up to Fort Worth last week to help me finish packing and loading up the Van and Uhaul. Friday, my best friend Charles came over to help and we got everything cleared out of the apt and cleaned up. As must as I was ready to move to Houston, it was still kind of sad leaving Fort Worth. I had been up there for 7 years, when I left for college. Basically, all of my adult life. I've had a lot of great memories, from TCU games, going out downtown, and just hanging out with great friends that I met over the years. But now I am back in Houston. Saturday was spent moving into the new place and getting set up somewhat. My parents stayed around till about 6 or so, then I went and had dinner with one of my friends, Vanessa (who i mentioned in an earlier post). After dinner, we met up with some more friends and went out and had some drinks!!! Charles and my other friend Kristin stayed the night instead of driving back to their side of town. Sunday morning, my original plan was to get up go to church, then stop by the rents house, however, when I woke up with a splitting headache, I basically laid around ALL day. It wasn't a hang over or anything since I only had beer, but I think it had to do with moving 2 days in a row in 100 degree heat and probably being a little dehydrated and tired. Oh well...I wasn't starting work till Tuesday, so I was able to go out to the parents house on Monday, eat at one of my favorite Chinese restaurants for lunch and hang out for a bit.

Tuesday it was time to go back to work... For obvious reasons I was a bit nervous. Even though I am staying with the same Accounting firm, I was basically starting new, being at a new office with new people. I found an apt literally across the street from my office. I drove the first 2 days, but more than likely I will walk to and from work everyday, unless of course its raining or something like that. Everyone at the office were very nice and welcoming. I think they had been waiting on my arrival because they loaded me up with work right away. Which I have no problem with, since I hadn't been doing much up in Fort Worth the last few weeks.

Overall, I think my decision to move and transfer back to Houston will definitely pay off. I know I will be much happier here and be able to meet some wonderful new friends. I live in a great area of town where there are a lot of young people. My apt complex is very very nice (look for pictures soon once I get everything organized and cleaned up)!!!

HOUSTON

As I have said before, I am soon to be moving back to Houston. That time is coming sooner and sooner. I have a month and a half left here in Fort Worth. I will surely miss it here. But it has been 7 years since I left Houston to start college, and now it is time to return back. I found a really nice apartment literally across the street from where I will be working. Even though I am going back to where I grew up, I feel like this will be a new start for me. I have met a lot of great people up here in Fort Worth, most from TCU. My goal is to keep in close contact with most. I have always been pretty good at doing that with all my friends, so I don't think it will be much of a problem. I plan on returning many times during football season to attend TCU games!!!

Starting New!!!

Well...I figured I would give this a shot. With the way my life has kind of changed in the last 6 weeks, it is time to start new and try new things. One of my close friends has a blog on here and I try to read it daily. I figured...why not have my own. Whether people read it or not, it is good to get my thoughts down on paper, well computer, but you get what I mean. I don't really want to get into why my life changed because I have talked about that enough. The past is the past and its time to move on and think about what lies ahead of me. I will be soon transfering down to our Houston office to be closer to my parents and my friends. I am a strong believer in keeping many close friends, all with different opionions and beliefs. Whether I listen to everyones advice or not, having different thoughts and perspectives about things, I believe makes you a better person. I have my own beliefs about things that I will always follow, but just knowing how others think and do things helps as well.

I am really excited but at the same time a little nervous about moving back to Houston. Houston is where I grew up. It is where I spent 18 years of my life before coming to Fort Worth for college. Don't get me wrong, I love living in Fort Worth. Its small, I dont have to worry much about traffic since I live so close to downtown, but I still think its time for Houston again. And to be honest with you...I am just sick and tired of hearing about the Mavericks. I HATE the Mavs and thats all they talk about up here. They have never won anything and they act like they own the league. They act like they are the best thing ever. What have you done Mavs? You went to the finals, had a comanding lead, and jacked by my boy DWade!!! lol. I still can't stop laughing. The Cowboys don't bother me that much, since I have always been somewhat of a Cowboys fan. However, I have season tickets to the Texans (I know what your thinking) and driving back and forth like I did last year kind of sucks. But anyways, I am moving back to Houston. I will probably live somewhere inside the loop which wont be too far from my job. Right now up here in Fort Worth, I drive 5-10 mins, 15 mins when its traffic, to get to work.

Well...that is about it for now.
