Looking for a job, Looking for a job, and looking for a job. I'm so exhausted from looking for a job. It has really been a roller coaster ride for me for the last well all of 2010. It is really frustrating to go to school for six years and not be able to do what you went to school for. I feel like it was a waste of time. I could have been working and getting experience in something else. But then I tell myself to be proud. I am proud, but just a little frustrated. I know that my education will pay off eventually. I can't get a teaching job and the sub lists are even full here in Boise. That is so weird to me. If I can't get a teaching job, I also can't get any other job because they wonder why I don't wanna be a teacher and am afraid I will leave them to be one. AHHH!! Well, call the wahhhmbulance right?? This is helping me get some frustration out. :)
On a happier note, here are some of the other things I've been up to since we moved to Boise.
1. Learning how to get from point A to point B. Now that we have the internet, I can MapQuest everything. That has been nice. I'm really picking it up quickly though.
2. Making zucchini bread. All of our family members have gardens so they stocked us up with lotsa zucchini. So what better to do with all the excess zucchini than to make yummy bread.
3. Watchin' a little Boise State Football. I've always kinda liked BSU ever since we watched them win the Fiesta Bowl on Cole and I's honeymoon about four years ago. It is also soooo fun and exciting to live in a city where there is actual school spirit... Sorry Bengals, but I am definitely joining The Bronco Nation!! On game day we went to the grocery story and almost everyone was in their BSU get-up. Go BSU!!
4. Labor Day Weekend we went up to Red Fish Lake. It was chilly, but really fun. Sorry no pics. I have had no motivation to take pics lately. We just relaxed, went to an old ghost town, and went on a four wheeler ride.
5. Trying to stay busy - cleaning, reading, exploring Boise, going to the temple, floating the Boise river (where Cole got knocked out of the raft by a giant limb hanging from a tree. He did save us all on the raft from getting knocked off and from getting the raft popped. He's my hero.), playing board games, and spying on our neighbors. ha. We live in a big apartment complex so anytime someone walks by our window we check em' out. Seeing if they might me prospects for a future friendship. Ha. So far... no winners. ha. I sound like a loser.
So that is what I've been up to. Just trying to be patient and realize that something will come along. I really like the Boise area a lot, but miss my family and friends. Next time I post hopefully it will be about me getting some great job. See ya later peeps!!
