Yeah, it's still rocking and a rolling. Definitely a lot of stuffs going on, and a lot of it is good, very good for me, and us, and God. God's gonna get a lot more of me from now on. My plans are good, but God's plans are better. My plans seem to be lining up well, but only God can pull them through.
It looks like I'll be looking for a second job for the summer to save up for during the school year when I won't be working as much. Parents want me to keep my work hours less than 20, but The owner says that he's gonna need me for more than that. Luckily, with the classes I'm registered for at Essex now, it shouldn't be a problem to be able to work more, and as long as I keep my grades up (A's and B's... shooting for a 4.0 ideally, at least a 3.0, and I can't get less than a C to be able to transfer the credits to LeTourneau.)
*sigh* I'll be needing to work a lot more on my school, which means I won't be on the computer as much, working a job and school will take up a lot... I'll be writing more letters to my girlfriend, starting this week. I just need something to talk about; I guess I'll just start with everything I forget to say over the phone. :-) She sent me a nice letter, and a novelization (I guess that's the best name for it... it's a narrative work) that was really quite good, even if it wasn't completely original. ;-)
I'm praying that I will find a passion, or rather that God will give me a passion for work and school. Dad has noticed that I have a passion for doing things I enjoy (no duh, right?) and not so much for things I need to do but aren't as fun. Well, I see that I do things I need to do, but at a much lower priority than things that I like doing. They still get done, but slower than they should be. So, that needs to switch, and I need a vision for my career, some guidance for what I'm gonna do with my education, so that I will be motivated to succeed. Right now my motivation is marriage at the end or near the end of my college career. Good enough, right? Actually, no. I need to know or have a strong feeling about what I want to be doing after my college is done so I can easily find a job to support my future family.
Right now, that's what I'm saving for, aside from other savings that aren't so long term. A car (and insurance), living space/rent, and foodz are gonna become real important once I get married. *eek!* Marriage! ;-) Wow! You know... I figured I'd be married by 25... maybe 23... but it sure seems to maybe be coming up soon hopefully... *crosses fingers and squinches eyes* God help us! Please! Really! We need you!
