Unemployed

My blog is going to get very boring with no pictures. No luck yet with jobs, we will be able to get one for sure once spring term ends. For now we have more spare time than we know what to do with. We're going to buy bus passes for the month of June so we can travel around and see all the sights that we want to but for now it's pretty expensive to pay each time we ride the bus. (Especially when we don't have jobs) We're loving swimming in the ocean, there are lots of sea turtles that swim in the evening close to our house. We got really close to them last night. I'm getting good at cooking in my outdoor kitchen and hope to discover some yummy recipes. Jason is going to suffer milk withdrawls I'm afraid. They charge $8.99 a gallon. Wow We should invest in buying a cow.

We're Here!

Jason and I are here in Hawaii we are at the BYUH library right now. Sorry mom I can't get my pictures on from here :( We really need to buy a laptop or we'll have to get guest passes until the middle of June. We love it here so far the ocean is amazing, the people are friendly, and the weather is great. It's been a bit stressful trying to figure everything out, like where to buy blankets and a frying pan (the town is VERY small). Our goal for the day is to find ourselves some jobs. It's so beautiful here and we hope to share some pictures soon.

Casa Manana

For the last 2 1/2 years I have worked in the restaurant business. A little over a year was spent as a busser and 2 as a waitress. I have learned a thing or two about human nature and how some people's tickers work. Some are distressing while others are fascinating. I love to watch people! You can learn so much.
1. You can tell alot about a person by the way they treat their waitress.
2. People are hooked on routines, I have about 20 orders memorized (including the "easy ice", no tomatoes, no cheese on the beans, very crispy)
3. If you waitress make sure you have a loving husband who will rub your feet after you've sped walked for 5 hours, and will listen to you lament about the icky man who ate all the food and didn't tip.
4. TIP stands for "To insure prompt service"
5. When you cry (however unvolutarily) people give you lots of money! It's not worth the embarrassment though!
6. Mess ups are yummy
These are just a few things I found at this crazy job. I ate lots of mexican food, earned good money, and wore holes in both my shoes. What an experience!
