New Life, New Apartment

I'm starting a new blog. Yes, one that I can keep up with and actually write more than once every few months.

Ariel and I have been moved in here for almost a month now. Everything is almost fixed now (the maintenance guy is here now fixing the bathroom fan, the toilet, and the sliding door), and we are well on our way. Ariel started school about 3 weeks ago and is throughly enjoying it. She is majoring in Art Design (or something of the sort) and is now known as an N-facker. She's had very elaborate and fun projects so far that consist of a wooden block, a screw, and some other nameless object, and has had to draw them countless times. She's more than enthused.

I have been studying away at my computer and am currently getting my American Literature CLEP knocked off the list. When I complete it, I'll have 24 credits over with. This college thing isn't so bad. I don't feel like a real student, because it doesn't take as much time and stress and it normally would. I am enjoying it nonetheless! I'll tentatively be a junior by August.

I play housewife most of the time now, doing all things that well-behaved housewives should. I spend the day cooking, cleaning, doing homework, and people-watching from the window (not so much). I'm still unemployed, but fervently searching. I have one hopeful, that's really turning into an unhopeful, a travel insurance company called Travel Guard. They have branches all over the world and I could easily transfer to another country if I became that involved with it. I couldn't find anything more perfect, but there's a long waiting period. I've have several interviews, and been presented to the company by the ABR Temporary Service, but there's an even longer process that could take another month. I have to keep looking, though and try not to become more apprehensive about this. 

Once I start actually making money, Ariel and I would like to add another member to our family. Probably a pretty little fish which we'll come up with an extremely original name for. Well, I'm off on an another daily adventure. The bathroom fan was just taken apart to be fixed, and insulation has been spilled all over the floor and there is more to be done. 

Until next time! Chau chau!
