Let the veggie curry come!

Well it's friday, I have $182 in my account and I have just shy of 3 weeks till I get paid again.

Veggy curry here we come again. /sigh

I have now sent 1500 home this month and between that, no leftover money from last month and bills, I'm just broke. And the electric and water bills havent even gone out yet. I think i'll grab out 30-40 dollars just so they cant draw it out for bills so we can eat.

I just remembered we have a doc appointment this month, gonna have to move that back past the 21st though that only means 1 week back I believe.

I'll have her start cutting down on her meds a wee bit when possible so as to stretch them another week.

I'm gonna empty out my wallet now so I cant be tempted to buy food when I'm out. Oh and gotta grab that $30 from james too, that'll help.

For now I just gotta try to relax and not worry too much in front of Jackie.

Though I already know there is nothing I can hide from her.

Yet another Thursday...

So it's thursday again.

We bought jackies ticket yesterday and I have to send more money home tomorrow.

She leaves June 25th, while I leave July 24th. 1 month. Its gonna be pretty rough.

Enjoying playing our RP toons. Eristal my pally is starting to take a more solid form in my mind. Same for Belov my DK. He is very fun to play for me. Definently not your typical DK.

Raiding is kinda meh for me and for Jackie I think. Last night we spent 2 hours wiping on a boss we killed last week. After every wipe and the subsequent rebuff, I noticed Jackie reading a novel. I may need a novel too, these wipes are starting to annoy me. And this guild talks wayyyy too much.

I havent slept well for days now. I'm very tired.

zzzZZZ

3.4 and other thoughts...

So looking into my old college stuff today I realised I graduated with a 3.4 GPA. Thats not too shabby. Infact it is good enough to enroll in the Transition to Teaching program through IUS. This is a real possibility, and some of the courses I'll take to get my license will count towards my Masters.

Real food for thought there.

Raiding is going well, it's fun and we are getting in our excersize like we should daily.

Today is some toning with the water bottles.

1st priority when I get back is to take my praxis 1 exam. Thusly more studying, however its all stuff I know already so should be cake to review.

I need more info on the T2T program, If I can work while I'm doing it then that would be great, what I'll do... who knows, maybe you can sub while in the program.

I feel really old, and I'm not sure why. It could be in the fact that I am still floundering a bit, still not "settled" though I have direction now which is something I didnt have 3 months ago.

24 is still pretty young I think. another year and a half to get my licensing seems long, but maybe its not all that bad. entering the school system when I'm 27 as a fully licensed teacher isn't too late is it? 10 years at 37 etc. Well at least I don't think 2 years will make or break it.

Or maybe it will... who knows?

The rain falls...

The rain falls on a sad little tuesday.

I heard back from Ohio, but there is little I can do here, I need acess to school transcripts.

Indiana is even harder, requiring a year of student teaching, which I'm pretty sure is unpaid.

I can and will become a teacher, it may just take a year or so.

But what to do about insurance then... who knows. I may need to go the Ohio route just for the job upfront.

We joined a guild, Ascended. And it was pretty much everything Jackie wanted from a guild, so I'm happy.

Today, however has been very rough. Quite a sad day for me. emotions overflow negatively. Sadness consumes me. Why? No idea and the feelings aren't about any particular thing.

Oh why, sadness you ride the coattails of the rain, bringing clouds and fog and despair.

Where will the winds take me?

That is the question...

I've been looking in Ohio, preferably closer to Indiana than Columbus. I have had a few bites.

Maybe I'll land one, maybe not.

My backup is to sub full-time while working toward my license.

I like Ohio. Very nice. One of the bites was between Columbus and Cincy. That would be good. I'm seeking my wife's approval before deciding, of course. I want her to be happy with our destination.

Well only time will tell.

/whooooosh

And thats a wrap.

Ok another thursday is down the drain. I'm bout to head home and relax with the wife.

And thus starts the hunt... for a guild. I love my wife to death, but she wants, literally, the perfect guild. Friendly, profanity-free, hard working, dedicated, onto current content, good name, good raid hours, All you can eat lobster and steak... you get my drift. She recently applied to the #2 guild on the server, I hope she gets in, I just don't know if that sort of pressure will work for me, plus they have no need for tanks.

Anywho

Gonna have linguini alfredo tonight for dinner. Thanks to mum for the food she brought, we have like 6 dollars to last us til tuesday.

Tomorrow is friday, so here's to the weekend.

The seasons of change...

The seasons of change are upon us.

Much is in turmoil here. Our last guest has gone home, our home stretch till the end has begun.

We leave Japan in 3 1/2 months. My resume is up and have started getting some nibbles. I'm excited to start the path to becoming a teacher. So much so that normal jobs bites have me less than interested. I like japanese, but notice how thats different from 1, 2 years ago when I "loved" japanese.

I crave creativity and change. I like my day to have a similiar form but within the form to be free flowing, coming and going with the tide of new subjects.

And yet, Ohio at least doesn't seem the least bit interested. Perhaps Kentucky.

The days roll and my heart aches for home.
