You just need to decide what you want to do with your life before you spend more money or go into more debt. You clearly aren't sure CAD is what you want to do, as I expected. You just want something to do that doesn't involve having a job.

Negative Ghost Rider, the Computer Science major includes CAD and would likely be better than just a CAD certificate.  I haven't fully decided, yet.

So CAD is not a degree, just a certificate? And where would you get it if not at northern westerns oklahoma university?

At the vo-tech, CAD is a certificate and then I would transfer the credits to one of the JuCo's for an Associate's Degree.  If I don't go to NWOSU, I'm sure there are other colleges around the state I could go.

Also, in Alva, I would look for a job around town to be able to pay my rent and utilities.  It's a small town, so jobs would be limited, but its big enough to where I could get a job.

You don't have to have any seminary education, although that never hurts, you have to have a confirmed calling to preach the Gospel and have to be licensed by the local body. 

How does someone confirm a calling?

How does someone confirm a calling?

The Greek church forces you to go to classes and take a 4 hour test to join. Basically the non Greeks who become orthodox know more about the religion than most Greeks. Surely they have a test or something. Not just "I have a calling" with nothing more.

Tonight, I am going to do something radically different for me.  I am going to read something other than the Bible.  I am going to start reading Total Church by Steve Timmis.  The book is about church planting, which is something I want to do in Kenya.  Of course, I will read the Bible, too and prepare my first Wednesday Evening Sermon in my Luke series that will be starting Wednesday, May 22, 2013.  My Bible readings tonight will be 2 Samuel 13-14 and John 3.  Early in the week, I need to start preparing my Sunday Morning Sermon for Sunday, June 2, 2013.  The book was recommended to me by my Missionary Friends to China and just happened to be in my church library.

You mean you've never read any other actual books besides the Bible?

I didn't say never, just not in the past few years.

not in the past few years??!! You would be well served by reading actual books other than old scripture and religious pablum. There are plenty of excellent fiction or non-fiction books about practically any topic.

[Joe Biden 2020]

Another possiblity, and the more reasonable option, is to continue on with the CAD program down here, but get at least a part-time job or an evening call center job when I get back from Africa, and then after I get my certificate, we'll reassess things and if I can't get a good job with the certificate, I'll go up to Alva in August 2014.  The job will do obvious things like pay down my bills quicker, and make it possible to move into an apartment of my own should I choose.

Why don't you apply to a temp agency and have them find you some temp jobs? That's a thing that exists, isn't it?

I may do that when I get back.

I just need something that I can work in the evenings.

[Joe Biden 2020]

I just created a profile on LinkedIn.  Let me know of any companies you think I should follow that are in Oklahoma City.

[Joe Biden 2020]

In addition to create a profile on LinkedIn, I have also checked in with my Dell recruiter and gave her a heads up of when I'll be calling her.  I was going to call her on July 1, but since I won't be home until the evening of July 2, I will wait until after July 4 to call her.  Since July 4 is a Thursday, I figure the best time to call is Monday, July 8.  The chances of her being at work on Friday, July 5 is slim.

[Joe Biden 2020]

I just signed my Mother's Day cards for my mother and my grandmother. I'm looking forward to a special day honoring them. If Mom feels like it, I will be going to church with her in the morning. Then, at 13:00, we'll have Grilled Hamburgers again for Mother's Day Dinner (Her Request). There is no church tomorrow evening, so I can spend the evening with her. If she doesn't feel like going to church, I will just go on to my church as usual in the morning.

do you ever go straight from your bible readings to viewing porn on the computer? 

canceled those subscriptions yet?

Since Bushie won't answer you I will. 

Porn then Bible (for forgiveness)

No he hasn't cancelled them all.

Correct, I still have one - playboy.

So, you aren't giving that one up, are you?

I will at some point.

[Lief 🗽]

Ugh, Bushie tell me what show you watch on that and I'll find it for you for free on the internet.

[Joe Biden 2020]

Since this site can be viewed by school children, I will PM you.

Don't do it at some point. Do it now.

You are wasting money.

[Paul Kemp]

Not like it makes a difference but can you/your family really afford going back to school?

[Lief 🗽]

I have found and sent torrent links of this show to Bushie so that he can now cancel playboy tv.

Am I a hero? I really can't say... But yes.

[Joe Biden 2020]

Not like it makes a difference but can you/your family really afford going back to school?

With financial aid, yes, we can.

[Joe Biden 2020]

Thanks, Lief!

[Fmr. Pres. Duke]

This is f**king hilarious. Congrats, Bushie! Now your parents can stop funding your porn habit once and for all!

[Joe Biden 2020]

Yes, Duke, it will be cancelled Monday when I can get some privacy.  I'll be cancelling by phone, so I likely won't have a cancellation confirmation to post.

[Joe Biden 2020]

Time has gotten away from me, it is 2:10 am and I should have been in bed 2 hours ago, but I wanted to get my post count up to 17,000!  This is 17,001 so I'm going to bed.  See you this afternoon.
