Update on my life if anyone cares...

Heather's Wedding and the Cabin
...and another bites the dust. Heather Groen another of my roommates has gotten hitched. It was a beautiful wedding in ol Prinsburg last weekend. I made the trek out last Wednesday where I met the rest of my roommates at the Apol's cabin. We spent the whole weekend there. It was an amazing time or relaxation and reconnecting. We 'layed out' (so American) - oh yeah I also was insensately harassed because apparently my Canadian accent has returned and I was the laughing stock of everyone. Anyhoo we tanned, well they tanned and I burnt, leaving me the most beautiful blochy redness on my back for the wedding - yah for cardigan's.
Friday was the wedding and Heather looked just beautiful. The decorations were also just amazing, little lights everywhere. Saturday we boated, jet skied, wakeboarded, water skied, and went tubing. I was in heaven. Then we head to Minneapolis to watch the Twin vs. Cubs game. That was also heaven, I was heavily distracted by the amount of the male species at the game. I may have drank too much, I may have found an umbrella and poked any decently good looking guy (drunk eyes) with the umbrella, I may been a little too loud, I dunno ask Shawna. She did try to steal the umbrella from me.

The picture proves it.



My Job Situation
I have been spending a huge bulk of every day applying for teaching positions. I have applied every where there are people. Brazil, Austria, Hungary, Cayman Islands, Suriname, New Mexico, British Columbia, Northwest Territories, Manitoba, and Nunavut - just to name a few. I got calls from all the overseas jobs, but you need to raise some support for those positions, soo... with having the curse of loans I have decided that those are not an option at this point. I am keeping in touch with a few of the people there for future positions. I got a contract offer from a small Christian school in British Columbia. I had until yesterday to accept, but I decided that I would decline the offer. Oh gosh I feel like this all just consumes my life. I had two job interviews with schools in New Mexico. One school can't let me know until late July (I don't want to work there anyway) and the other school (the one I taught at) gave the kindergarten position to someone who had more experience (blast being a recent graduate), but there is a good possibility the first grade position will open up, so... fingers crossed.

Life
I have not had a summer job yet this summer. As I mentioned before I did some home renovations, and putskied around the farm. Well I now have a summer job and I am so excited about it. I start on Tuesday! I will be a nanny for this family who lives in a very nice part of town (rather ritzy). They have two kids Cece (12) and Jack (5). There dad is actually a stay at home dad, and the mom is the VP of four radio stations. They just want someone to hang out with the kids and keep them occupied, outings and crafts, as well as lounging by their pool will consume my days. It is my dream job.
Gwen (Bakker) is engaged and I am so excited for her. I get to be bridesmaid. Her ring is just beautiful. We went wedding dress shopping last week. I am obsessed with wedding planning, I can't stop myself. I have snipped out pictures, checked prices, and mentally planned at least 5 different weddings for myself. Too bad I am the furthest person from getting married. Tears.
I have read a whack load of books too this summer. I love books. If anyone wants me to recommend some great reads just ask.
This is a quote that made me laugh my ass off from a book I just finished.

"Do you like... films? I as at last.
"Some," replies Jess, frowning thoughtfully. "I like films that say something. That have some sort of message."
"Me too," I agree feverently. "Every film should definitely have a message."
Which is true. I mean... take the Lord of the Rings movies - they've got loads of messages. Like "Don't lose your ring."
