OOOOO I love this thread!!! Ok, here goes me:
I'm known on here as Frodo's mom/sukj12, but my friends and family call me Jaime. I'm 25 and I'm a graduate student at Boston College in their Graduate School of Social Work. I just finished my first year of grad school, and I have one more year left. I also work full-time (for the summer) as a Case Manager for a Head Start program.
I moved here to Boston last August, so I've been here almost a year - it's hard to believe! I was born and raised in Southern California, went to college at UC Irvine, spent a year working, moved to Buffalo for a year, and then came here for school. So far, I LOVE the Boston area and I've met some wonderful people. I'm learning to speak Bostonian .... cah, hahvad, pawk, etc.
Frodo is almost 8 months now. I got him when he was 11 weeks old and so he's been here with me since January. He is a special little guy! I had been contemplating getting a dog as I missed our dog from home (all of my family's in california), but I wasn't sure how it would work out with living in an apartment and with school. In December, I flew home for Christmas and my mom encouraged me to get a dog if I could. So I did some research on breeders after Christmas and I started to plan for puppy-proofing my apartment (making sure, of course, the landlord was ok wkith animals - thank goodness she was!!), and the rest is really history. Frodo was born on Halloween of last year - lol no wonder why he's such a terror!
In my spare time, I'm an avid reader (I majored in English in my undergrad), I love baseball, I love to run, shop, and just relax with Frodo. Walks around the reservoir are our favorite!
Keep the posts coming, this is a great thread! |
