Well I told my father that I needed to find a part-time job and would you believe that he just happened to have a part-time opening in his office. Sure he did, he created a position for me but that’s okay I guess. He’s still hoping I’ll change my mind and become a lawyer. Who knows at this point anyway. All I know is that I want to help people that have either been accused or have committed a crime to get back on their feet and into a better life. I don’t know if I can do that through becoming a lawyer or becoming a probation officer? Anyway, I have a job.

Registering for classes
August 23, 2009 // Posted in education and training, family and friends, grown-up stuff | No Comments
It’s that time when everyone is registering for classes. I have some that are online and some that are on campus. I’m really looking forward to getting back into school. Believe it or not but I have missed going to school. This is better though since I’m not in a classroom every day. I have come to the conclusion that I need a part-time job though and that way I won’t have to keep going to my father for money even though he did say he would pay for everything.
I’m pretty tight with my money especially since I buy most of what I want or need online. You can really save a bundle if you just know where to look. I’m the search king for savings!!
Back home

I will give it to my father. He couldn’t have planned a better vacation even if Mom and I would have helped him. I would love to go back in the fall or early winter. It was so very beautiful but Alaska would be awesome in the winter so you can see the winter light displays in the sky. You know, the Northern Lights.

Isn’t this absolutely beautiful? The wonders of nature at their best.
Yeah this looks cold but beautiful at the same time!!!
Alaska is awesome

What an awesome sight to wake up to a nice cool morning in August with the ocean at one side of the ship and snow capped mountains on the other side. If you’ve never seen that, I highly recommend it. The cruise itself has been amazing with all of the food and entertainment on board ship but now the fun really begins not that we will be leaving the ship to explore different parts of Alaska. I can’t wait.
We depart today

Well today is the day that we depart San Francisco for Alaska. The cruise ship leaves port at 12 noon. We have had a great time in San Francisco and I’m looking so forward to the cruise. Dad finally told us it’s a 10 day cruise but that’s all. I’m sure once we are aboard ship, we’ll find out more. I thought that once we were ready to board ship, Dad would finally fill Mom and I in but as always, he’s being rather tight lipped. I guess that’s the lawyer in him. You never reveal your strategy or evidence until it’s time. Well, I think it’s time, don’t you?
