About Me

Wow... its officially summer... its so sweet I can almost taste it! Living half an hour from Santa Cruz doesn't suck.. that much I know. Next year by this time I'll be Mrs Sarah Chumley- Johnson (yep hyphenated style). I marrying my best friend and strangely the male version of me... Life couldn't be better!Two semesters down, two to go... one year of grad school and I'll have a real job as an Occupational Therapist! A what... a job counselor, you might wonder? No, no a therapist who helps people with physical and mental disabiliteis regain indepedndence... and so much more, there is really not enough room here to explain. It's everything from helping kids with autism, people with schizophrenia or your grandma with a broken hip do what they need to do everyday to function.Other than that I'm just hanging out in San Jose. It's really a fabulous place to live. Lots of stuff to do...oddly enough I've been bowling more than I've ever been in my whole life... weird. Sometimes I get a little nostalgic for fresno.... but not for the hundred degree weather! Mostly for Me-N-Eds pizza (you know what I'm talking about Fresnans).
