New Beginnings

So I thought that it might be a great idea to actually start using this blog. Ok, so that's not really the reason, but it was about time that I actually start putting some stuff in here for me to look back on. Haha, sounds a little bit pessimistic but really there isn't all that many people that check out this blog site.

So today began a new chapter in the story that is my life. Specifially my fianceé (just learned that it was two "e's" today) has left for Sweden for four and half months on academic exchange. I don't think that I can adequately express how happy I am for her. This is a major step for her, but I know that there will be a lot of things that she will learn and grow in. I'm just glad that she listened to me and booked hostels beforegetting to London. Knowing where you are going to stay before getting off of the plane is such a nice thing. I'm certainly glad that I did it when I went to Ecuador. I think that this time will also be good for me. Time to focus on getting a job that is related to what I studied at UBC, and just getting settled down into a career.

Careers. Now there is one aspect of life that is freaky. Not so much the idea of having a "real" job, but more so the time when you don't actually has a job. Take right now, I'm unemployed, I have quite a few bills that I have to pay each month, and the EI that I am getting isn't really all that much. That goodness for knowing that God is there to take care of me. As much as I struggle with personal issues and doubts there is something in knowing that I am being taken care of.

I hope that in the next few months (month?) I will be able to post something here talking about my new "perfect" job!

Happy New Year

So this is the new year. It already seems that this is going to be yet another big year with a lot of changes and growth. Some of the obvious changes is that Carleigh will be in Sweden for the next 4 months, it will great for her, and I am excited to see how she will change and grow as a result of this time away. For me, it will be a a time of change and growth as I work on looking for a job and begin really starting my life. Some may say that the transition to university is the most difficult, I'm beginning to find that for an introvert, finding a job post-university in beginning to be rather difficult. I know that there is something out there for me, its just a matter of finding the job.

So the interesting part will be the steps/gambles that I am going to have to take in the next month or two to secure a job. Its easy to fall behind when your in a secure/stable place in life, so a little pressure might be something that I need to find the job that I need!
