What are you reading?

I'm moving slow but I'm just starting the second book in the Hunger Games series, "Catching Fire." According to my kindle I'm 30% of the book and I definitely have to say this is already more to my liking than the first one.

I've just been in the reading mood these days. What book do you recommend checking out? I'm pretty open to anything and would read any genre of book. So comment below on any suggestions.

Summer's Eve

Right now I'm sitting outside on my porch, feeling the the slight breeze that comes, browsing the web and enjoying a Heineken in this 95 degree weather. One of the great things I love about summer is how long the days are. It's almost 9:00 right now and there's still light out!

I don't know what else to say in this entry just that I'm finding peace right now in this warm summer night. I don't need anybody else just me, myself and I.

Bored of my Job

Okay, so I've been at my job right now for a couple years and I think it's gotten to the point of boring me. I really don't see a future at the company so I think it's definitely that time to try to look for something else. The thing is though is that I don't really have a college degree, even though I had 'some college education' that doesn't really impress many other businesses or companies. Obviously I'll be there for possibly a few more months maybe another year but I think that's about all I can really take of this constant same work. 

I'm more interested in a work environment that keeps moving, that has a lot more excitement and surprises. I've been working in office environments for so long that I'm just finally getting sick of it. I need more thrills in my life and that's what I will try to aim for in my next job. Any suggestions?

Planning a Trip

I wanna go on a trip but I'm not sure where to go. I was planning on a summer trip but now that it's June I feel like it's kinda late to save up some money right now and plan a trip. I would like to be a person who just all of a sudden just get up and go but I too cautious that I feel I need to plan beforehand and be sure I'll be safe financially. I think the safest place to go is Los Angeles since my sister and her boyfriend lives there, I'll have a place to stay for free and a guide. 

I've been in LA for a little bit but never really been there long enough to take everything in. I know flight from Des Moines to Los Angeles is not too pricey so I think it would possibly be best to go and relax on the beach drinking the day away. I would actually consider spending a whole day at the beach to people watch and drink Coronas all day. Right now it just seems way too perfect to do. 

I was also thinking of planning a trip to the East Coast to visit my cousin but the thing about that is that it's a lot more expensive of a trip and I don't really know what to expect there.
