So my company was soo cool and decided to celebrate becoming a new company by flying and inviting everyone out to Las Vegas for a fun filled weekend.

And they went all out. The flew us out there, gave us some new company swag, 50 dollars in gambling money, a hotel for two nights and an extravagant dinner.

So I get to Erica's house on friday and we drive to the airport. I hang with a few work friends at the airport for a few hours until boarding. matt V. missed his first flight and somehow we thought that others as well were going to miss the flight. But somehow everyone made it.

When we landed, Drew called and told me he would pick me up. So I waited for him to pick me up and we attempt to drive to Bellagio so I could check in, bu the traffic was kind of bad and we also veered away from the strip because we had food on our mind and were attempting to find the In-And-Out burger he thought was off of Tropicana. We didnt find it, so we just settled for Jimmy Johns. Drew had a . . . Read More..

Here is the situation:

The Stalkers and the Renne's frequently would go to Cedar Point almost each year.

On this particular year toward the end of the day my Father and Kirt played this bowling ball game to get the kids these huge stuffed dogs.

The way the game worked was you would have to roll the ball up three small hills and not roll back so that the ball is in the farthest point out.

I vividly remember standing there in anticipation and excitement as Noel got his, Kevin got his and then Dan got his. But mine was more difficult to get for some reason.

And on top of that the moms came and realized the boys were spending all this money on a stupid dog and they told them they had to stop at a small crappy purple dog with hearts.

I dont remember the rest of the night for I was probably the most upset out of my life here.

I won my first two goldfish on the fishwalk at Burt's fair. I will forever remember Pitri and Sarah. Yes I named my fish after dinosaurs! I had the fish for years until my parents forced me into giving them to Christina b/c I couldn't take care of them. It's tough caring after fishies. She killed them and then flushed them. I wanted to bury them. Poor babies of mine. I loved the fairs at Burt!

Sometime around the 5th grade year, Christina Poponea had a bday party at her house. It was just a bunch of girls I think.. Well, anywho, Teresa Wozniak was there and for those who don't know she is allergic to peanuts. There were mini snickers bars there and she ate one. Mr. Poponea had to drive her as fast as possible to the hospital, running many red lights to make sure this little girl didn't die or blow up. It was unbelievably scary. I don't think she ever ate a snickers again. Everything turned out okay and she is still kickin!!

OMG! I rememeber in 5th grade when our teachers picked four of us to go to the library and be interviewed by the Oakland Press. It was me, David Renne, Christina "Chrissy" Newman, and Jason Novak. Luckily I didn't have to go first b/c truthfully I had no idea what it meant to be a first lady. I didn't know that was the President's wife. I knew absolutely nothing about politics. I was your basic kid who was just living. If you look closely at my answer compared to the other 3's, I took a little bit of all of them. lol Too funny. That clipping has hung on the inside of my family's liquor cabinet since it came out back in 1992! Too funny!!
