Happy Two Year Blogging Anniversary! I can't believe that I have been blogging for two years! Okay, not that regularly, but it's the thought that counts.
So... what is new? I'm still unemployed, but I am attempting to get back to school for the summer. Hopefully things work out and I can get some credits done. I moved, again. Darn it, when I bought a house I promised myself I would NEVER move again. Oops. I have moved three times in the past year and some change. I hate moving. My main reason to hate it is the fact that I can't do it by myself. I have a hard time asking people for help, especially when it's to do something not fun. I can make almost everything. Except carrying twenty five hundred boxes of someone else's crap up three flights of stairs. Ya. That just sucks. ANYWAY. The move is over and I am settling in. Since I have no JOB, you would assume that I would move home, right? Well... my parents live to far away. So I moved in with my Roomie's parents. Not really, just kinda. They have an adorable two bedroom apartment over their garage, and I'm renting a room. I have a new Roomie (the org. Roomie moved into her old bedroom in the house) and it's a bit strange. Mostly because I didn't know her before I moved in. I haven't ever lived with a stranger before, I have always been friends with the person first. She is super nice, and I do like her. But she mostly just stays in her room. I'm not sure if she just doesn't like Howard and Carrot James, or if she is shy... Or maybe I should shower more. : ) Just Kidding. Everyone knows that it's important to shower every day. Usually. Oops. Anyway. I'm sure that we will get to know each other better soon, and then it will be less uncomfortable. Or it's just me freaking out thinking that she has been waiting all day to watch something on tv and I'm just sitting there monopolizing it. Whatever. I mean, that is cool. You know how it is when you are getting to know someone and you don't want to offend them, so you don't really know what to do or say... I need to not think about this so much. Maybe I should get some new hobbies.
What else is new. Oh, ya. So I applied for school in Ireland. Surprise! I might be leaving the country in November! I know! I'm pretty excited about it. It's a really great thing. For those of you who are familiar with it, I applied to YWAM (Youth With A Mission) and so if I get in, I will be gone for seven months doing the DTS (Discipleship Training School). It's in downtown Belfast, and I will be living there for four months (that is the "lecture" phase) and then I will be traveling for three months (the "outreach" phase). I really hope that I get in. I should hear back in the next two weeks or so. I'm so excited. To get the chance to learn more about my faith, and to help make a difference in the world. Pretty freaking cool!!
Let's see... Oh, I totally forgot to mention that over Memorial Day weekend, Lacey and I went to see Mara! It was so fun! Her house is BEA-ti-ful!! And we had a blast! We hung out, played a new game called Eckure. I know that isn't how you spell it, but I give up on that. We also went wine tasting, which was fascinating. Oh, and Brent made us amazing BBQ two nights in a row! I love BBQ. Really, I do. Oh, and we went into San Fran too, and we toured Alcatraz! That was interesting, we went to the night tour and it was cool to hear about the history and see how small the cells were. Pretty sure I'm not going to look in to a life a crime. The don't even give you outlets to use your hair dryer. I can't live like that. Nope.
So.... that is the update for now!! Ta-ta!
