My Stock Market

What do you do when you wanna get something

but there's no stock available?

And you don't know when there will be more.

It might be in 3 months.

But not completely available per se.

It's really frustrating.

Spencer says my stock might be available sooner.

And he wants me to wait.

But considering how impatient I am...

We'll see how long that lasts.

Anyhoo.

Brenda, Lance and I went to watch Eclipse last night.

Brenda loved it and thinks it's the best movie ever...

--which makes me question her sanity--

I just loved one thing about the movie:

Jacob

~*~*~*~

This is me and Bren at the Walt Awards

("Black Tie" Ward Activity)

This is us at the movies!

(Lance bought the tickets for us. Isn't he the best?)

This is me excited to see Jacob.

This is me and Bren super excited!

(She was excited for the movie. I was only excited for the HP7 preview that was on!)

This is us waiting... and taking pictures!

My Pioneer Day Weekend

This is the story of a girl.

She had to work Friday for Pioneer Day Weekend.

It was Single Day at work.

On a Team known as Collaboration.

All the single people were working.

And only single people.

Because they didn't have anything to go home to.

They were really bored.

Getting a call per hour.

Nadia and Trent were sitting by each other.

Just taking pictures of their shoes.

Nadia's boots were the talk of the day.

Thanks to Brady.

Whether he was mocking them or really liked them...

Is still a mystery.

Brady gave Nadia a drawing.

Trent called it the bunny dog.

Nadia liked it.

But then Brady destroyed it out of nowhere.

Brady says Nadia is not very polite on the phone.

So he wrote a list.

And pointed at the words Nadia needed to use.

There were tons of guys and Nadia.

So obviously they picked on her.

Nadia stole Mike's iPhone 4 and used it to take the pictures of everyone.

Including herself.

And then she got to babysit the cutest baby ever.

And on Saturday, Nadia's friend asked her to be a model for a photography class assignment.

Pictures will be posted when received.

My Obnoxious Self

Sometimes I feel like taking pictures of myself.

And sometimes I even like how they turn out.

My Quote of the Day

“Our Heavenly Father is more liberal in His views, and boundless in His mercies and blessings, than we are ready to believe or receive. … God does not look on sin with [the least degree of] allowance, but … the nearer we get to our Heavenly Father, the more we are disposed to look with compassion on perishing souls; we feel that we want to take them upon our shoulders, and cast their sins behind our backs."

Joseph Smith

God's pretty great. Isn't He?

Just saying.

My Collaboration

I LOVE THIS TEAM!

Yea, love it already.

My first day was awesome.

I couldn't take any calls because my accounts were still in International.

But I got to sit around and do nothing.

It was peachy.

Actually kinda boring but Spencer made it bearable.

The others were friendly to me too.

And Spencer said I was the new "Collaboration Girl."

The other girl is leaving soon apparently.

Yay for me!

Again, working amidst guys.

My favorite!

Just like when I got hired.

I feel super comfortable around guys.

Spencer said something funny yesterday.

We were playing this new bouncy ball game he came up with.

The other girl was there too.

But in her own little world.

Not playing.

Or talking to anyone.

Ant then out of nowhere Spencer said

"Nadia, you're my favorite girl in Collaboration...

because you play with us."

The other girl had obviously heard,

so Spencer kept going and said

"Though, Other Girl's Name played with us once."

Spencer doesn't like that other girl very much.

And as long as I'm the favorite girl...

I'm happy.

So I'm THE Collaboration girl.

Not A Collab girl.

Why?

Because I'm cool.

Enjoy some Collab stuff.

Yes, he ate that Marshmallow... and it wasn't the dirtiest he ate.

He is such a guy!

I customized my phone! Isn't it cute?

This is my nametag all pretty but my green dot that says I speak Spanish fell out...

This is special to me... to know why scroll down...

I'm part of the Collaboration team!!!

When you've waited 10 months for something to happen...

When it does it's the best feeling in the world!!

My Personal Policy

We have this policy at work that says we can't flirt with the customers.

I mean duh, they're pretty much old and married.

And it is just unprofessional.

But there's no policy against flirting with co-workers.

Unless they feel it's sexual harassment.

So there's this guy I always ask questions via Communicator (chat)

We pretty much have gotten to know each other that way.
Before Communicator he would always answer when I called.
And I was just smitten.

I even say hi to him when I see him.
And he recognizes my voice.

It's really funny.
So we were talking about this customer...
who couldn't log in because of a problem with his account.
And this guy was gonna fix it.
Because he always does.

9:26 AM Name Withheld

Cool

Ok, he can go ahead and try it.

9:28 AM Nadia Reategui

You are an awesome person! So amazing that I'll give you something for your help. 

There's a ticket going your way.:)

9:28 AM Name Withheld

Haha, thanks Nadia!

It's pretty innocent flirting if you ask me.

My way of kinda showing I like him.

Because he's really cute.

But honestly I just like the whole innocent flirting game.

It's cute.

Maybe one of these days I'll have the guts to...

My Book To Add

Today at work I talked to an Elder Smith,

since we were installing IE7 and his computer was slow

it was taking longer than usual.

And he was and old fellow...

you know how those calls can go..

"Where can I find the programs?"

"What does this mean?"

"Address bar?"

Anyway he was really nice.

He won me over when he said how good my English is.

I'm a sucker for those comments.

He asked me why I was in the US.

Asked if I had married someone here?

I scoffed.

Married?

Not in this life, pal.

Anyhoo...

He asked me what my major was and what I wanted to do.

I told him I wanted to be a writer.

That's my dream.

Fans. Fame. Money.

I need to start working on Bassville again.

So he said his son's a writer.

His name is Obert Skye.

Well that's his pen name.

His real name is Robert Smith.

And he told me he wrote Leven Thumps.

This guy had no college education.

He had talent.

Wrote tons of books and has a movie coming out.

Talk about success.

I want that.

More than anything in the world right now.

A book!

A movie!

It's a fantasy...

I'll have to check it out.
