Update: Chris Ritter

So went to Maui for Christmas/New Years. My Christmas was fabulous. Michael bought me an awesome watch that I have been eyeing for the past year or so. Its at a retail establishment that is only found in Hawaii, and New York, so unique... Its more of an international brand. ANYWAYS... Love it and was Shocked I got it. I also got a cook book "how to boil water"... Mike's cute way of telling me I need to learn to cook, so far I like the recipes, easy and practical. And then, after the watch and the cook book, he surprised me with a trip to Oahu! We flew over the next day and stayed at Waikiki beach for 2 nights. Little out of character for him to Plan AND Surprise. I'll take it!

My New Years was pretty lame. Mike was working so I just stayed at his place that night and watched movies... Lame. But I think New Years is over rated anyways.

School started for me once I got back. I like all my classes so far, just want to get out of here! Im also trying to get back into dancing a bit. Found a Studio in Portland, actually Ashley led me to it in some way. Vega Dance Lab. It took me a whole month to get the courage to take a class but I took my first class there last week and loved it and hope to make it a regular thing.

Michael is coming to visit in a couple weeks. Going Ice Fishing (yawn) with his family in Idaho, then coming back to Portland to spend a few days with me.

I realized I needed some glasses for school/work. After studying the pixels on the screen for over 4 hours at a time, it was time to get some. I got two pairs. Tell me which ones you like.
Portland? OR White?

I got one free, so I thought it would be fun to go with a really Ugly, super trendy, hipster, Portland black pair.... so keep that in mind :) I looked ALL OVER PORTLAND (and Oly) for a pair of white frames and found them last week. Tell me what you think.

Hope all is well. Keep in touch!

Chris

  1. Hello!! Before I read the last part of your blog I was definitely leaning towards the white...I'm glad I got that one right :)

    ANYWAY, didn't see your facebook hello until I re-opened my computer around 7pm, and then you were already gone. But it's soooo good to hear from you!! Glad to get some updates from someone, it's been so quiet on here since Em last wrote. I have an excuse though, I'm waiting (ever so patiently) to hear if Brent got 3 months in Corvallis...urgh our school is so damn slow!

    Will keep you updated when I hear more. Won't be back in PDX until June probably, after I take my boards. But nothing really else new is going on...

    Talk to you soon. XOXO

  3. Forgot to mention on the phone yesterday...I didn't think the black ones were a joke! Very hipster, which you obviously are :)

  4. Ok...speaking of hipster there is a hiarious facebook quiz (I know...Facebook Quiz = lameo) but it's called "What type of Olympian are you?" and it totally cracked me up. I was labeled the 'Native' but it's got the wide range of Olympians...including the hipster who would LOVE those glasses
