ok... so my posts have been paltry. liv'n life is my excuse.

so far, the internship has been... eh. amazon is a great place to work for, but my placement into this group is a mystery to me. i really don't remember if i asked to be put into this group... i might have.

i've been working for the payment systems group, trying to get an internal system for our group and other amazonians to see what's going on in our part of the payment system. it's purely info tech and accounting type stuff. not really my interest, and not incredibly a challenge. it's a mixed bag. it's the kind of work that i really don't want to be doing for the next 5 years. i fear an office space life. i don't want a cubicle. dear lord, i don't want a cubicle.

speaking of cubicles, i used to share my manager's office, but she moved to start a new group, so i have this pretty decent size room as my office... all to myself. yeah.

i just went kayaking (didn't take pix: wet camera = sucks), and we're heading off to a white water rafting trip this friday. should be interesting. i've realized that i love the outdoors, and seattle is growing on me. however, i really do wish to do the year-round nice weather thing, so i'm thinking so-cal is in my future. decisions, decisions.

i need to get over my hurdle of separating church and women. i've never really liked talking to girls "in that way" in the church context. i dunno. i think i need to talk to someone about this.

oh. my manager has asked me to think about working a couple extra weeks. :D. more to come later.
