Day 212: July 31, 2011

I went on two bike rides this weekend. To beat the record setting Texas heat, we had to start early!


Saturday, I rode with a girl friend, Amy, around the lake twice and up the trail once, for a total of nearly 40 miles.


Sunday, Darrell and I did two laps around the lake for nearly 20 miles, making my weekend total just about 60 miles.

Day 211: July 30, 2011

The first Harry Potter book came out in 1997, right before I started middle school and ever since then I was hooked to the series. The first movie was released in 2001, while I was a freshman in high school. The final book came out in 2007, when I was a junior in college on an internship living in Houston. The final movie was released this year, 2011, now I'm an adult, graduated from college, with a full time job and working in Dallas. My mom and I read each book and saw every Harry Potter movie together. This past October, we went to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios in Orlando. It was fun sharing our love of the Harry Potter series together.

My mom and I saw the final movie, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part II and it marks the end of the Harry Potter era. I grew up with Harry Potter. Now, I'm fourteen years older from when the series first began, but I still love the books and movies and it will forever be apart of my childhood.

Day 210: July 29, 2011

Deloitte University


There are many 'opportunities' at Deloitte, some better than others. I got the opportunity to experience Deloitte University, a hotel and leadership conference center, prior to its official grand opening in October. I first heard rumors of DU while I was still recruiting with Deloitte. It is amazing to finally see it and far exceeds my expectations.

Despite the heat, Frankie still enjoys his time outside. I think he looks like he's rabbit hunting in this picture.

Day 207: July 26, 2011

This summer I've read many good books, so far this one is my favorite.



"Love the Lord your God, and love one another. Love one another as He loves. Love with strength and purpose and passion and no matter what comes against you. Don't weaken. Stand against the darkness, and love. That's the way back into Eden. That's the way back to life."
— Francine Rivers, Redeeming Love

Think these cows know what CPA stands for?



I started on a new client, again.
