job hunt

For me, I despise job hunting. I find it so annoying to spend countless hours trying to find one that I qualify for, and hopefully one that I would like. Dressing up all the time is tedious too, and pretending to be confident. Job interviews are even worse, I hate the dumb questions they ask. Ask my parents or Wolfgang, I'm a mess when trying to find a job because I am so incredibly nervous and lack any and all confidence, during the job hunt and even during the start of a new job.

BUT...

Currently Wolfgang has been job hunting, and it is SO FUN. I seriously get really excited about it, more than him I think. There is a slight chance we will be staying here for another year or so if he gets this management trainee program that he wants, but we are coming up with plan b, c, d, e...just in case. So far, he has applied for jobs in:

Hawaii
NYC- already has had his 1st interview over "Skype"
Chicago-(denied, but applied for another position)
Phoenix-(denied)

Other places he's planning on applying to?

More in AZ
Las Vegas
Aspen and Denver
England (maybe)

...and anything else that strikes our eye.

I currently want Chicago (never been there, but looks fun) or Colorado, and HE wants NYC or Las Vegas...(although I could do both too, LV is close to family and a lot cheaper to live rather than these other 'ideals', and NYC...is, well, NYC.)

We'll see how this works out.

entertainment for the uncreative

I felt the need to blog, but instead of telling you something, I thought I would show you some funny videos I've encountered in the last couple of days. Enjoy.

t-shirt

Thanks Jess, for the new shirt (I like)



The day I wore it, I noticed a cute cruiser that someone was walking, and I almost said something like, "Nice cruiser!" but immediately realized that was a bad idea and would be a potentially creeper situation, seeing that I was wearing a shirt with a cruiser on it.

It brings me back to about 2 years ago when I owned my own half-pseudo cruiser, which I loved, until it was STOLEN. Yes, it was even locked up with a pretty hefty bike lock.

Damn you, "Laie Boyz."

aaaRRRR

So today was national "talk like a pirate day"...

Oh, and my birthday.

24. ??!! I'm pretty sure my body is already on it's way to deteriorating.

24 years ago my poor mother had to deal with a little preemie baby that wanted to come out the wrong way. OUCH.

Last night the husband took me out to eat at Macaroni Grill (MMMmmmmm) and did a little window shopping, but after trying on some cute shirts, we were too cheap to pay the price and just left, hoping for the best that we could get it on sale later...(self control, self control....)

Today was a bit busy but good, and in the evening invited friends to have some cake and ice cream.

The problem is, I never found someone willing to do my homework for me for my birthday. HOW.RUDE. Jess offered, but I think the time I would waste figuring out how to get it to Portland, I would have it done by then (but then again probably not) AND did she didn't guarantee a good grade, so it looks like I'm stuck.

She also informed me it's my last year of being in my "early 20's." ouch.

I better make it a good one.

Thanks to all those who made it special with the phone calls, text messages, emails, cards...etc, etc.

Back in the swing of things

Today has been long and busy so far, with back-to-back classes with a side of work before and after.

I got so use to our campus being a ghost town during the summer, that it is weird and kinda annoying to dodge so many people all over the place.

Best quote of the day by one of my teachers,

"...The best kind of art history, comes from good history."

...

huh?

(and that didn't even come from my Taiwanese "KA-muni-kka-shuns" teacher)

lame.

We start school tomorrow.

UGH.

BUT, it's our last semester.

I can do this, I can do this, I can do this...

Out of order

So I FINALLY blogged about our vacation back to AZ, but it's a little out of order; the post is underneath the post with the rocks in hand.

Just thought I'd let you know :)
