Employment, College, Life, and Gratitude.

Okay. So today has been a great day. Maybe one of the best since I have been in the state of Utah. Since I have been here I have been unemployed, as you may have read in my last blog post. But today I got the good news of employment. I got it at the Art Gallery! I do not think I can overstate my joy.

I have paid off all my bills until the end of April. The 24th I have a $28 bill Then the 28th I have $260 bill. I can totally make that in a month. I am going in Thursday for training.

One top of that I went into SJV to meet the Director of Nursing. She told me to call Monday, and ask to set up an interview for Thursday. Something tells me Thursday is going to be awesome. Tuesday I am going into Arlington Hills and applying and I should get an interview that day. I am not sure if telling them I have another interview later in the week, and asking them if I can call back is professional. Maybe not so much, but I would rather do that than accept the job, and then finding out that I got the job at SJV with the hours I want and then quitting Arlington.

The sucky part is my social life will be cut... Well I do not have much of one at the moment, but the one I have will start to be nonexistent. It may make getting into the dating scene a lot harder. But I mean making the money will be well worth it, because I can use that money in a year to get into college. Which I really need to do. All my friends from high school will be going into their junior year, I will be going into my freshman year. I feel like I fell so far behind. It is slightly depressing.. But on the plus side I know it is something I want to do, and I will not let life hold me back. So what I start a few years late. The fact of the matter is I will graduate. And If I take summer courses I can not be so far behind.

I really want to post on here I am extremely thankful for the support and help from J.P. and S.G. while I have been here. I may have left if it was not for them.  They have been extremely encouraging. I feel like I could never thank then enough, because they both have played a huge part in adjusting to life here. I know I do no say it enough, mainly because words cannot describe it... But thank you.
