With the crew from work we all went to Santa Cruz for a Staff Appreciation Day. We had SO much fun together! We headed into the water at 7:00AM. It was not cold at all, the body suit helped too though. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I stood up, but only for a couple of seconds. Surfing is A LOT of hard work, by the way. I can't believe how sore I am! If I lived closer to the ocean, you would be finding me doing this all the time. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It's just a matter of time when I do it again, I loved it! I have been asked quite a bit in the past when others find out that I am from California, "Do you know how to surf?" That cliche is no longer. I do know how to surf, begginer style of course ;)&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6578900445336852304-4369071183181484324?l=skrause8.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://skrause8.blogspot.com/feeds/4369071183181484324/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6578900445336852304&amp;postID=4369071183181484324' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6578900445336852304/posts/default/4369071183181484324'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6578900445336852304/posts/default/4369071183181484324'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://skrause8.blogspot.com/2008/08/surfer-girl.html' title='Surfer Girl'/><author><name>sarahbear</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04505734481258052848</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SEtQ2EQ0T5I/AAAAAAAAAAs/J69NutolMPA/S220/sarahtree.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SLCz9uQmDII/AAAAAAAAACQ/A5sxTmUKxG8/s72-c/IMG_1616.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6578900445336852304.post-7146504994476142826</id><published>2008-08-23T17:22:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-23T17:37:39.315-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Sam I Am</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SLCs_4hNRqI/AAAAAAAAAB4/uj5uDcev51Y/s1600-h/IMG_1594.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SLCs_4hNRqI/AAAAAAAAAB4/uj5uDcev51Y/s320/IMG_1594.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5237876580135290530" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SLCtAawb-WI/AAAAAAAAACA/jrcBoFEdJ5k/s1600-h/IMG_1611.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SLCtAawb-WI/AAAAAAAAACA/jrcBoFEdJ5k/s320/IMG_1611.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5237876589325973858" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SLCtAniBfgI/AAAAAAAAACI/LjdSV18k8hs/s1600-h/IMG_1576.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SLCtAniBfgI/AAAAAAAAACI/LjdSV18k8hs/s320/IMG_1576.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5237876592755179010" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, the past two and a half weeks Sam has kept me entertained! We were on dating steroids...we crunched a summer full of fun in a couple of weeks. Where did I meet him? I met him online...yes I said online :) We have had so much fun together, but it was such a short time. He was just here on an internship, and as of now he has gone back to Arizona to finish his Masters in Business Management. I hope we can continue to keep in close touch. If not, it was sweet while it lasted.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6578900445336852304-7146504994476142826?l=skrause8.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://skrause8.blogspot.com/feeds/7146504994476142826/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6578900445336852304&amp;postID=7146504994476142826' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6578900445336852304/posts/default/7146504994476142826'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6578900445336852304/posts/default/7146504994476142826'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://skrause8.blogspot.com/2008/08/sam-i-am.html' title='Sam I Am'/><author><name>sarahbear</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04505734481258052848</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SEtQ2EQ0T5I/AAAAAAAAAAs/J69NutolMPA/S220/sarahtree.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SLCs_4hNRqI/AAAAAAAAAB4/uj5uDcev51Y/s72-c/IMG_1594.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6578900445336852304.post-4769978156406931388</id><published>2008-06-16T21:16:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-11T06:52:30.987-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Slip Slidin Away</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SFnG5e2FGQI/AAAAAAAAABY/Isn9tIjpQ64/s1600-h/IMG_0951.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SFnG5e2FGQI/AAAAAAAAABY/Isn9tIjpQ64/s320/IMG_0951.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213416734492793090" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SFnG6UpyFwI/AAAAAAAAABg/BWdzQC2wkec/s1600-h/IMG_0980.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SFnG6UpyFwI/AAAAAAAAABg/BWdzQC2wkec/s320/IMG_0980.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213416748936730370" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SFnG60hmyzI/AAAAAAAAABo/UZB_rTXQkos/s1600-h/IMG_0984.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SFnG60hmyzI/AAAAAAAAABo/UZB_rTXQkos/s320/IMG_0984.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213416757492370226" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SFnG7cMbNUI/AAAAAAAAABw/ZaDuqBduT0I/s1600-h/IMG_0993.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SFnG7cMbNUI/AAAAAAAAABw/ZaDuqBduT0I/s320/IMG_0993.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5213416768140948802" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I experienced my first club ever on Saturday. It was my friend Melissa's graduation party from College, and this was the after-after party! 9 of us in all attended and had two guys to protect us ladies. We all dressed up, and headed into San Francisco city.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was a cool club, it was called "Club Slide". It was named this because you have to go down a slide to get in. Pretty cool huh?!? I thought so :) Plus, it use to be a meeting place during the Prohibition, booze still remains to be a popular hit. The heels came off and down we went. Luckily, there wasn't a lot of "nasty" things going on there, like so many of the stories I have heard before. Pretty good music I must say, and SUPER crowded, need to add as well it was SUPER hot! I got the full club experience, danced my heart out until 1:30AM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To top it off we had a limo pick us up and take us back to our cars at the Concord Bart! I started the night slippin down a slide, and as fast as I came down that slide that is how fast I slipped into bed! Whew...what a fun night!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6578900445336852304-4769978156406931388?l=skrause8.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://skrause8.blogspot.com/feeds/4769978156406931388/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6578900445336852304&amp;postID=4769978156406931388' title='4 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6578900445336852304/posts/default/4769978156406931388'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6578900445336852304/posts/default/4769978156406931388'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://skrause8.blogspot.com/2008/06/slip-slidin-away.html' title='Slip Slidin Away'/><author><name>sarahbear</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/04505734481258052848</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='25' height='32' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SEtQ2EQ0T5I/AAAAAAAAAAs/J69NutolMPA/S220/sarahtree.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Pmw3QToacOo/SFnG5e2FGQI/AAAAAAAAABY/Isn9tIjpQ64/s72-c/IMG_0951.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>4</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6578900445336852304.post-9024280628890422295</id><published>2008-06-07T17:33:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-07T17:36:26.990-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Here it goes....</title><content type='html'>So I decided to set myself up a blog page.
