Jobless

So I've been home for about 3 weeks now. That's pretty much all i got to say. Sad right? I am so bored! The job i was planning on having didn't really pan out and now i am looking for some work. They say finding work in the Tri-Cities is easy.... NOT! Ive applied for about 20 different jobs and still nothing. Now one is hiring! I'm getting really frustrated because i have to make some mega money this summer if i want to be able to pay for my housing and tuition and if i want to bring a car up with me! Super discouraged right now. I applied out at the farm and possibly might work out there for wheat harvest and at the granary and such but that isn't until the end of June and beginning of July when i find out. That's a whole month! I have got to make some money!

But yes we did get a new car, he's mine to drive for the summer and his name is Rico! He already wove his way into my heart even though he smells like old man and a ting of smoke, he's kinda loud, his sunroof doesn't work, and his a/c also doesn't work. Besides that, i love him! There is a chance i can take him back to school with me, but there is no way i will if i don't have the money to pay for a car and such! :/



 People have been generous and i have been babysitting and house sitting here and there, but i really need a steady income.

So while i have been looking for a job, i spend the rest of my time sleeping, reading, sleeping some more, and doing nothing! I don't have a lot of friends here like i use to ha ha! The ones i have are either still out at school or have jobs or still in high school. So i spend a lot of my time alone, sad i know. I never thought i would ever say this, but i am TIRED OF SLEEPING!

I'm trying to stay positive and all but when you don't have a job or anything to do... i don't know how i use to do it! I have to stay busy or i feel useless!

We are dorks....





Among doing nothing, i have done a few fun things with the fam. Movies with the siblings, basketball, and just the other day went to Seattle and watch the Mariners play.

Steve and me!!!



The parents (they are in their Utah State gear, CUTE!)



This boy can eat!




I just need to stay positive and trust in the Lord that things will work out the way they are suppose to, its just hard at times.

My Mom


My mom is the best. She is beautiful. Has a big heart. Friendly. Fun. Adventurous. Organized. Helpful. Peace maker. Good listener. Great example. Talented. The best!




I go to her to just let all my worries and problems out. She never interrupts me, she just sits there and listens. That is normally all i need. I tell her EVERYTHING! Things that i know my friends would never tell their moms, my mom knows everything. I am that comfortable with her. What i love the most, she doesn't judge me. She just understands. She is seriously my best friend.


Whenever i bring up my moms name in front of people, all i hear is how much everyone loves her and how she is the best and so kind and helpful. I am proud to call her my mom. When people tell me i look like her and act like her or remind them of her, its the best compliment i have ever gotten.




I hope when  i have kids someday that i can close to anything as what i mom is. People say that a mothers love to her children is the purest and strongest. I believe it!



I love you mom! Happy Mother's Day!

Home

I am officially home for the summer! I'm not so sure how i feel about it yet.... I love being home and seeing my family and friends, but i finally just got use to living in Logan! But what i miss the most about Logan is the MOUNTAINS!!!!

Washington......



 Utah.......








I absolutely love waking up and going outside and just being blown away by the beauty of the mountains!! Living in Washington most of my life, i don't see the mountains on a regular basis! i have grown to love nature and the creations God has given us!

I have also grown to love seeing the BEAUTIFUL Logan Temple everyday! It is gorgeous and i always get a good happy feeling when I see it! I have enjoyed visiting it and being near it!







I have a nanny job but haven't started yet and is just waiting to hear my schedule. But i am anxious and excited to start working! I have been applying for part time jobs and am SICK of filling out applications! I forgot how hard and tiring it was to look for a job! I just hope everything works out this summer and i earn the money i need and hope to earn! I need to work some hardcore hours and start filling up my piggy bank for next school year!!!

STRESS reliever!

So the Wednesday on finals week at 9:30 pm, students have a "silent" dance in the library. This involves students with their i-pods and headphones in and just dance to their music. This dance goes on for 30 minutes, and then at 10 pm, they howl!






This was my first time getting involved in that (like an hour ago!) And  ummm definitely know why this is done, it seriously helps relieve finals stress! Just to dance it out and then howl.... makes you feel a ton better!
Well this is short and sweet and now i need to get back to studying, but seriously, if you need to relieve any kind of stress, just dance and then howl :)
