The First of the Last

This week was officially the first week of my last semester in school. And I'll tell you I couldn't be more ready to get out of there. I feel like I have gained as much knowledge from that place as I possible can, and I am ready to learn out in the real world. As of the end of last semester I have 1610 hours. Which sets my graduation date at October 29. The only hard thing about that is, even though I will have my hours I will have to attend a Communications class every Friday until December in order to get my certificate. Oh well I guess. Beggars can't be choosers.

We have also made a decision about the whole house thing. For now we are going to put it on the back burner. We have decided that we need to keep as many options open as possible while we still can explore what the world has to offer us.

Life in Limbo

So since we last posted a lot has changed. We are currently living at my parents house while trying to figure out our lives.

Jordan has applied to Blizzard and we are waiting to here back from them to see if they would be interested in sending him an art test. This studio is the top of the game industry so it would be amazing for Jordan's career if he were to get in. Plus living in Irvine, California is not something that either one of us is quick to complain about.

Meanwhile the government keeps dangling the promise of $8000 to first time homebuyers if they purchase before Nov. 31. To say this is appealing is an understatement. We have gone out a couple times with our real estate agent and found some really great options. Plus this weekend we were happened to come across a great new community being built in Woods Cross. We absolutely loved the area and we would be able to build a brand new 1700 sq foot Townhouse for a great price. Trisha approves.

All that being said we are living in limbo. We don't want to jump the gun and risk having to turn down an amazing job opportunity, but at the same time we are on a time crunch with the stimulus package. So if any of you could convince Mr. Obama to extend that time line we would really appreciate it.

I know, I suck.

So yes this poor little blog has been severely neglected. Now Jordan has about 9 other blogs (or so it seems) so I feel that this blog is pretty much up to me. Therefore I am going to try much harder to update regularly. But as it is past midnight right now, I will leave the catch up post till tomorrow.

OMG she is going to kill me.

Trish and I were bored one day so I photoshopped her face .... an awesome job of it too! She want's me to post more on this blog so here it is .... shhhhhhhhhh.

Edit: By Trisha

Divorce papers are now being drawn up

And the Emmy goes to...

Jordan Pack! Whoo!

That's right! The film that Jordan produced at BYU just won a student Emmy! So because he was the the producer on the project they are going to be flying him out to LA in march for the awards! Also if it won first place (they don't find out till that night) Jordan will get an actual Emmy trophy plus some money! We are keeping our fingers crossed! We are also hoping that it falls during my spring break so that we can get a ticket for me to go along with him.

Step 1: Emmy

Step 2: Get into Pixar

Step 3 Conquer the world! Bwahahaha

Bunny Madness

This is what it is like to own a rabbit. Now I just need to find a sound clip of one squeaking ...

All Settled In

So we are finally here! Yes we moved over this past week and I am proud to say that we are officially all unpacked. The nice thing about moving is being able to start over and be completely organized. I love it. I have taken some pictures of the apartment that I was going to post but sadly somewhere in the process of moving I have lost my USB plugin to upload pictures to my computer from my camera. Hopefully it will show up soon.

Thanks to Justin and Ana we now have a new food obsession. Pho. They took us out to a little restruant that served this dish earlier this week. I will admit we were not sure how we felt about it after we left, however we went again yesterday and now we are hooked. Thanks guys.

I am now back in school trying to get through what I call the 'semester of stress'. However it really has been great being back. I'm loving my new classes and am on my way to graduating hopefully the 2nd week of september or so.

Jordan is doing great at work, although had a slight scare as the company just had to layoff a bunch of people. However he is great and working hard to improve his demo reel.

Hopefully I'm not getting this cold that has been lingering about. Head isn't feeling so great tonight so I'm going to hop on off to bed. Goodnight!
