Getting Better all the Time
Looks like things are changing quickly over the next few weeks. Starting the end of next week I will be moving in with ZB after a year and half of living over an hour apart. With this move our relationship will be moving to a new level of in your face closeness, and I hope it all works out. We have been trying to get to this stage for some time but due to the economy it was hard for me to find a new job to relocate closer to her. It took some doing but now I will be attending Linn Benton Community College (LBCC) starting in the spring. Classes start on March 29th which is two days after I get back from China.
On the note of China, I will be leaving on a trip for two weeks starting on 15th of March and will return on the 26th. I cannot wait to see all the wonders of the Eastern World. My trip will take me to Beijing, Xi’an, Shanghai and back to Beijing again before returning back to the states. During my stay I will be visiting the Great Wall, Terracotta Soldiers, Tienanmen square, and the Forbidden City, plus many other attractions. We will be with a tour group for most of the trip but will have a few days here and there to wander the streets shopping on our own. It should be lots of fun and a learning experience.
With School starting I have a lots of work to get done in a short period of time. I need to get registered for my classes on the 5th or 6th or 8th or 9th, can’t really tell what day I am suppose to do it on between all the information on the school website and the information the admissions office gave me. I will also need to pay out of pocket for all my classes and books for the first few weeks. This may leave me short on money for awhile depending on how it turns out. I will be taking math 95 again since I have been out of school since 2005 and just need to get refreshed on how it all works again. Last time I took this class I actually understood the material real well and had no problems with the class so it should all just come back to me during this time around. Personally I am looking forward to getting back in school but a little scared about not being able to make the grade. Its funny how later on in life you realize “Damn I should have done all this when I was fresh out of high school” but when you are just out of high school you just want to go party and get on with your life. Now ten years later I am heading back to school so I can make something of myself finally and get a career instead of being the bottom rung person at any job I go to work for and have to work my way up slowly. With a few degrees under my belt my career should take off. Well at least that’s the wishful thinking I am doing.
