In some of my past wards in church, the leaders in our relief society meeting would leave a few minutes to the congregation to share any "good news" that happened in the last week. On many occasions it would be kind of annoying and pointless information that the other women felt like sharing (because they couldn't think of anything else exciting in their life for that week), but sometimes it actually would be interesting and exciting news, followed by some "Oooo"'s and "ahhh" 's or "yay!" with some accompanied clapping.
Although these moments were awkward at times, sometimes I miss them a little.
Anyway...
If you were to ask me my "Good News" from the weekend, I would tell you this:
1) Beach time with Wolfgang
2) Being invited over to our friend's house for some delicious food and hours of laughing and talking (and watching one of our favorite movies)
3) Got a phone call today and getting the JOB that I wanted really bad. I'm pretty excited about it. I will be working in the International Student Services office, helping students with their Visas, Green Cards (sound familiar?) and the like. Finally I'll be doing something that is related to my major!
Now the hard part is telling my current boss I won't be working as many hours for her anymore...I always feel bad about bringing the bad news, especially after they have treated me so well at my job. BUT, that's life!

That's wonderful,I had to learn it from your blog. I hadn't looked at my text messages. Good Job.
YAY on your new job!! Sounds like you will enjoy it a lot more. (hopefully)
As for bringing the bad news to your other job - just remember to wear your Big Girl Pants. I've found you can accomplish almost anything if you are wearing them. :)
