job hunting & slaving over school


this is us visiting point loma university which is right on the sunset cliffs! gorgeous views all over campus!



here we are at seaport village in san diego, right at the harbor!

well... we started school last week, and needless to say, we both are hating it. the campus is ridiculously crowded all the time... and it feels like we're back in high school. but it's only for one semester. for me at least. but seth is not as bothered by it as I guess I am. i have classes M-Th: calculus, geography, intro to hospitality & computers (online). seth has class TuTh: speech & philosophy, and he's taking two online: music & art history. calculus & computers are kicking my booty, & well seth just can't stand music and art. I told him I would switch with him, I'll do his art & music, if he does my computers. no go. oh well.
anyway, other than school, we are pretty much occupied with finding jobs. We've both applied online to many places, but no luck yet. I received emails asking for more info, so I'm just waiting to hear back. Those were for being a nanny! ha. It's pretty much the only job I am qualified for. So that's where I applied and also for a Gymboree Party Instructor, and another job as a Cupcake Associate! ha. Do you know which one I'd prefer?? lol. Seth is looking into jobs for security and hopefully he hears something soon.
I am struggling yet AGAIN, with figuring out what I want to do with my life. Hospitality and Tourism or Interior Design or something totally different! I have no idea! And it drives me crazy every minute of the day! But I have to stick with something so I can be done with school!
Pups are doing great! Cute as ever! Enjoying the California sun.. they get to go on walks much more often! And Ares actually SURVIVES!! :P
Well off to dream land soon... class tomorrow :/

  1. HEY! I was just gonna tell you you had better post some pics of you guys so I am so glad you did! First of all.. the only way I know how to change the background... click on someone else's page who has a background tab at the top of the page.. like left corner. (like ours) and then go to that website and it says you can get free backgrounds so choose one and then you copy/paste it onto your page through the "customize" tab on the top right corner and then on java/gadgets I think. Sounds complicated, but it really is probably more confusing just reading it like this lol! :)

    Second of all.. changing major again?! :) girl it feels so good to just stick to one and START. Weigh out the options and then just go for one, you will do great in whatever. Also, I did the nanny application online thing when we were in VA. I have been trying to remember what it is called... care.com maybe? Well check it out cause I got a bunch of calls from it to work with special needs kids especially and I think you would too! :) I miss you loads and I really wanna come out there for spring break.. I am gonna try and convince Nick that we find a cheap flight out and come to the warm beaches and visit you :) Let me know how you feel about this idea :) love you!

  2. hey shay marie,

    thanks for the background info. i'll give it a try. and i haven't decided for sure yet if i'll change my major, but i'd rather be happy doing something i enjoy, than just getting a major in something i don't really have a passion for. who knows. i'm a scatter brain. anyway, that would be AWESOME if you guys could come for spring break!! we would love to have you guys here! so let me know if you work it out :)
    and i go on wednesday to meet the family for the nanny position - hoping i get the job!! love you <3
