About Me

Hey! I'm Amber! I'm a CMU alum, and plan on heading back to school to get my master's in the some-what near future.This has been an insanely busy and eventful year. We just bought our new house at the beginning of June and have been spending lots of time making it ours. Already it looks ten times better. Also, we just got engaged on 08/08/08!! I'm so excited and happy. It's overwhelming to think of everything we need to prepare for a wedding. I don't even know where to begin.Right now I'm still working as a server/bartender at a local restaurant (La's) and as a pharmacy technician too!I have an amazing family, fabulous friends (who I do not get to see nearly as much-we love visitors!) and a loving fiance.I feel quite lucky and blessed to have the life I lead. :)
