I am going to attempt to touch on all the relevant / cool stuff that’s happened in the last two weeks. I officially moved to Austin December 29th into a cozy 2 story apartment off of 35W & 290, just 5 minutes from downtown. I moved in with one of my good buddies, Josh who I did a little touring with in the past summers.

A few days later, I brought in the New Year with Josh & his girlfriend and Dilly & Tara. We waited for the countdown at a bar on Rainey Street then made it to all the madness on 6th Street. I spent the next day finishing unpacking and got ready for my first day of work at my new job.

I was overly stoked for the public transit that Austin has to offer. I got up early for my first day of work, made breakfast and walked a few hundred feet to my bus stop. It was about a 15 minute bus ride to downtown and it was awesome! I was under the impression that I would just be filling out paper work and get shown around what they do at GetMeFriends. On the contrary, I was writing blogs and monitoring all of the 40 social media accounts for our clients. It was fun and exciting.

I got on the right bus home but headed in the wrong direction. What was a 15 minute bus ride downtown to get here turned to a 3 hour ride home.

The following week of work was great. A little more repetition of work and I already feel like I’ve the hang of it. The following weekend, Mollie got back to Texas from her Christmas vacation in Switzerland. She came down to Austin for the weekend to visit and it was very refreshing seeing a pretty, familiar face again.
