Texas: Part 2

I work for a company called Security International. They deal with fire alarm and security systems. My official title is estimator/designer. I help research projects and put together bids for the contractors doing the construction. Eventually, I'll be learning AutoCad so I can design blueprints and all that fun stuff...which is something I really want to do.

And that's more or less what I moved down here for. I love living on my own more than the job...by far!!

Also, the close proximity of a beautiful beach is definitely awesome! I like the area down here, even though it gets wicked hot and humid.... Also there are lots of Mexicans. Hearing Spanish being spoken around you more or less every day is, well, rather annoying. If it wasn't for the American-looking buildings and and cars and streets and everything, I would've thought I had driven too far and ended up across the border into Mexico.

Anyway, my apartment is slowly coming together into livable quarters. My bedroom is more or less done, as is the kitchen and bathroom area. Now I'm working on the living room area. I just bought a nice TV stand and TV. Also, my landlord gave me a futon/couch thing for free that someone else had left...So yay me! And it's black, so it fits in with my black/green scheme color thing for the living room. (Oh, and btw, a black lacquer/glass TV stand is freakin' heavy to carry up to the second floor all by yourself...just in case any of you out there try it!)

And that's more or less my move to Texas!
