We are Employed!!

Well we got to do something exciting this week! We were on our way to the mini golf course and got distracted by a photo store. I thought it was a photographer's store that he displayed his work but it was actually a studio where they take pictures of you. Beacause I love pictures so much I dragged Tandri in there with me while the sales lady proceeded to convince us how we would look "lovely" doing this. I was sold, haha. They do you hair and makeup and get you all ready and then take like a billion pictures. So Anyways, it was like the funnest day. The pictures turned out cool, but Tandri only let me put two of them on here. Since we never got to go golfing we decided to the next day. Sigurdur told Tandri that we need to go to a nice golf course where the grass is green! hehe Actually the state that we are in is experiencing one of the biggest drought season's that have happened. They are trying to preserve water in like everyway here. There even figured out a way to recycle the toilet water...ughh but don't worry they will not have that up and working until next year, and we will be gone! Its funny though on the toilets they have these two buttons for the flusher. If you go pee you press the half toilet button and if you go "the other one" you press the full toilet one. I guess this is another good way to preserve water. lol. So that would explain the lack of green in our golfing pictures. So we took Sigurdur's advice and went to a nice golf course in a town close to here called Robina. It's like around $115 to golf for one person but it was worth it. A lot more obsticles and hills and stuff to play around. But it was so hot we both got really tired out. Some more good news.....we are now employed again! We are both trained "sandwhich artists". We work at Subway and it is so much fun! haha. Its so easy and the people are really nice. It gets pretty busy so it is cool meeting everyone that comes in. We work with a girl who is from Ireland, and I'm pretty sure that is the hardest accent to understand. I just listen to her, smile, and say "oh ya" but I have no idea what she is saying. The best part of it is defanitly the food though. When we are working we get anything on the menu for two dollars, subs, wraps, and salads...only $2!! Thats amazing! ha. And free fountain drinks. If later we start to hate the job, we will probably stay for the food. mmmm It is so good. So now we are just planning on working lots for the next month or so to regain some money. We were walking home the other day and stopped at a convenience store for a snack and I picked up a chocolate bar and headed to the register. Three dollars later!! Yikes for a normal small chocolate bar its like 2-3 dollars! We were talking to a lady who owns a store here and she said that some things are more expensive here because everything is imported. It has such a longer way to come here then it does to Canada. But not everything is more expensive, just some things. It was a good $3 chocolate bar. So we are off this afternoon to work again, and eat some more. Have a good week!
