Good evening.
As i sit here on this very rainy evening writing, I’m finding it hard to believe the weather here. For November it’s very strange, I mean it’s raining and not snowing. Usually around this time of year we have snow on the ground and possibly dropping more. We’ve gotten over an inch of rain already and it’s still steadily falling. This afternoon we had thunder and lightning which is hella weird as well. The weather forecasters say that by the time it’s all over we could have two inches. So throughout the night we are supposed to have rain, hail and strong winds with gusts with up to 60 MPH, in Iowa they were having tornado warnings this afternoon and I can’t help but wonder if we are in for some of that. Personally, I’m seriously hoping not. I don’t mind the storms at all but you can keep the tornados. I must admit that it has been extremely beautiful for November.
There is a great possibility for a second job. I can’t remember if I wrote about this before but Kato Cab has a dispatching job and I’m trying for it. My SSB counselor and my computer tech Flint went to talk to them and it seems more and more likely that I will get it. There are a few kinks to work out mainly the mapping issue but Flint has an idea for that. I’m sort of excited but don’t wish to get my hopes up too much in case it doesn’t happen.
I’m currently still working at Land To Air and have been there for five years now. Things there have me really really frustrated at times but I’m sticking with it. I won’t go into why I’m frustrated just now but maybe I’ll go into it soonish.
I finally got my application in at MSU!!! They have looked at my application and all I need to do now is get my old college to send them my transcripts and boom!!!! They said they will consider my application for classes assoon as I can make that happen and i couldn’t be any more excited. I have chosen three choices for majors, I know it seems like a lot but I have to decide between the three. I’m interested in foreign language which is my first, music and accounting. I’m told it might be hard for a totally blind person to do accounting but I seriously want to try. There are ways to get around some of the paperwork like using a scanner to read, accept for the handwritten stuff which no one has found a way around yet. I’m not too sure they will find a way since everyone writes differently, it would be pretty cool if they could though.
I’m still looking for a new apartment to move to. I applied for one and they sent me a letter back letting me know that as soon as my name gets to the top of the list they will let me know. I’m also going to look for places near MSU campus, sure it will cost me more to get to and from work from there but I will be closer to class as well. It should be interesting to say the least. If I move to campus Flint will be my roommate as he is looking for a new place to live temporarily while his house gets finished being remodeled at which time he and I will move back to the house. I will be living upstairs and he downstairs. It will be like having our own apartments then. I spoke with the apartment manager at the campus and she said that my two cats will most definitely be accepted. This made me happy as I will not go where my babies aren’t welcome. If you don’t want my cats then you don’t get to have me there. I mean this within reason. We shall see what happens.
Well, I suppose I should run and close windows as it is starting to get a bit chilly in here. I still have things to do before I go to sleep as well. Six o’clock comes early when one doesn’t sleep well at night.
Have a great rest of your night eveyone and I’ll try to write again soon, try being the keyword here.
Laters, XO
