It rained super hard today! Apparently that is unusual for May in Wyoming, so I made a little video of it. It literally is of rain, just warning you haha!
We've been job hunting like crazy. I found out Wyoming will not even look at you until you have a Wyoming license in hand. So I will have to wait for a month to receive it in the mail. Boo. But good news is I got a full-time insurance benefits and everything job at McDonald's! (You know, the stereotypical job people always joke about when you graduate with your art degree haha) No, I've actually been blessed to have many art opportunities after graduating, it's awesome!! In fact, I got a check in the mail from my illustrations that covers a month's rent woot! I've got the whole summer to work and save! I am also waiting to hear back from the place where I'd get to be a phlebotomy person, so hopefully!
Austin got interviews at Wells Fargo as a teller, and the Hilton. Also, we are both waiting after interviews at a rehabilitation place. We've been go-go-go from 8am to 3pm everyday. I cannot tell you how many places we've looked and applied. Even online, it's been intense. So we're grateful to find these positions at least for the summer!
I caught Austin after a long day and night of applying:
We've been cooking lots at home, and big portions of cheap stuffs like our thai peanut soup! It stretches and has lots of protein. And mung bean noodles are the best and cheap haha!
I love our new kitchen island too, we had to get one at Walmart because we don't have a lot of counter space. After having it though, I think I'd get one even if I did have counter space because it's so freaking convenient to have --roll it where ever! Chop the veggies by the stove, and they're right there to dump :) Veggies btw are craptons cheaper here in Wyoming because the Walmart distribution center is in Cheyenne (45min away.) We get everything fresh, fresh, fresh! (For being inland.....)
We've been doing small things so we don't spend. I found 89¢ Mango juice cans for a mini-date from the Philippines! Straight up mango juice. I really want to go back to St. Lucia now....We literally ate them in the ocean fresh from the trees. Or if you were feeling frivolous like I did one day... get a Mango shake lol!
But these came pretty freaking close:
It's interesting because Laramie is such a cycling town. Not competitive, but everyone even beyond college students owns some schnazy bikes. Everyone rides everywhere! I was so happy because Austin talked about using part of his graduation money on a walmart bike like mine, and he finally got one! Plus we did some upgrades as we are totally able to bike for shopping. My bike finally got a crate and rack on the back! So did Austin's! Speaking of which, we are going to ride to get a movie to rent tonight. Loving it! (Okay shut up.... "I'm Lovin' it!" hahahaha)
