    It is really hard to title your first entry.  What do you call it?  "My First Entry?"  Just kidding...  I will take this time to talk about who I am and what I like, what I hope for and some things I dislike.  First of all I am so happy to say that I finally have a full-time job which I have been looking for since this past November.  My new job is at another bank where I will be a "Universal Banker".  It is a title which means I will be mainly responsible for opening accounts and going out into the world to bring back more accounts to our bank.  I may be working on the teller line every now and then but the account openings are going to be my main concern and duty.  I am currently working my last two weeks at my current job which is at another bank.  I am/was only a part time employee there and desperately needed full time employment.  Not only for more hours but for the benefits as well.  I am 21 and my insurance runs out this August when I turn 22 under my parents, and it is so important to have health, dental, vision insurance etc.  I will receive all that when I start work at my new job at the new bank.  I hope to start "training" this Monday for it. The branch will also only be 1 mile from my home instead of the 13 miles to my old part time job. :-) That will be nice.  I will not have to be scared driving to work in the snow too much anymore and not to mention what I will save on gas!  My last day at my part time job is this Saturday.  I am excited about starting a a new job but also sad to leave my old one.  All my co-workers are wonderful people and we were a great team.  I hope to stay in touch with some of them after I leave.
    One of my co-workers/managers named Crystal and I hung out for a short while this past Saturday.  We went to get

our eyebrows waxed.  Mine which I had been growing out since last November to be re-shaped turned out well.  Yesterday though, I noticed that there were a bunch of red bumps which might even be pimples >_<  above each of my brows where the lady at the salon waxed.  I texted Crystal to see if this was normal.  She has had her brows waxed before and I thought maybe she would know and she called me and told me her brows had the same bumps above them!  She said it had happened once or twice to her before and she was thinking maybe the wax the girls used on us was a bit too hot!  It is kind of ironic both of us would break out at the same time.  I thought maybe I was just having an allergic reaction or something.  Oh well.  It was fun and I bet the bumps will go away after a few days.  My brows look great and I can maybe just cover the bumps up with some makeup when I go to work tomorrow.  :-)
    This past Christmas I received my first ipod from my parents.  I have been listening to it like crazy the past few weeks.  I put a bunch of music on it like songs by Blue October, Trisha Yearwood, Fergie, Chris Brown, Belinda Carlisle, Rihanna, Linkin Park etc to name a few on a wide variety. I have been playing the song "The Calling" by Blue October over and over again.  I don't think it is extremely popular (could be wrong) but I really do love this song!  I also saw an old movie from about 1997 I think on TV several days ago that I had forgotten all about. I remembered liking it and it is called Romy and Michele's High School Reunion.  I cought the last 45 minutes of the movie and the next day I went out and bought it for about $12 on DVD and have watched it several times since then.  I also have been really enjoying the movies Stardust and Amazing Grace.  Amazing Grace stars one of my favorite actors Ioan Gruffudd.  Not only is he a good actor, but he is incredibly dreamy!  I first saw him in the A&E series Horatio Hornblower where he plays an 18th century British navy/sailor.  You may also have seen him in the movie Fantastic 4 and as Lancelot in King Arthur.  My other favorite actors include Hugh Jackman and Eric Bana.  Ok, I'll throw in my favorite actresses too; Renee Zellwegar, Anne Hathaway and Nicole Kidman. 
    So I just spilled on my favorite music and movies.  I could talk about these two things for a long while but I was forced to stop myself.  I like some books too and are excited to say that I actually have read one book before they decided to turn it into a movie.  It is called "The Other Boleyn Girl" by Philippa Gregory.  The movie based from this book should be coming to theaters soon and is going to star Eric Bana (Yay!), Scarlet Johansen and Natalie Portman.  It should be really good.  I have not seen it obviously yet, but think they have chosen good actresses/actors to portray the characters in the historical, lusty, and extremely good book!  Will deffinately be going to see this film.
    So now I have officially written my first entry here on Vox.  I just thought of my title for this entry and already typed it in.  It is kind of silly but so is my personality.................    ^__~
