No clue. I can’t think of where I could have honestly spent all my money. Its retarded. Blah.

Parable of the Leader

Let’s say there’s a country and its wicked cool and happy and everything is great. But then slowly the leader starts to be a tad more oppressive and propagandist. Eventually the entire country is completely dominated by this tyrant but the only thing is, the propaganda is so effective that only a small faction of the citizen’s are opposed to the oppression because the rest have fallen for the leader’s lies. The small faction has another group closely assosiated with it and the leader believes this group is on their side but really its a spy group for the faction. The faction could obtain harmony with the rest of the country but they would have to agree to a new policy that they just can’t agree with that is proposed by the leader. The faction doesn’t want to overthrow the leader, nor could it on its own anyway. The only way it could be overthrown to have the country’s issue resolved is to have all the other brainwashed citizen’s snap out of it and realize the leader has been lying to them. The faction would rather that, instead of the leader be overthrown, that it would instead be changed back into its democracy loving self because this faction used to be a group that worked close to the leader and helped it out with the country’s issues.

How can the faction get what they need?



So tired.

I’m not sure why. I went to bed at like 12. And I woke up at 9:15. But I’m still freaking tired.
This won’t be the best condition to learn code in. But I’ll try anyway haha.

It dawned on me this morning that I haven’t cracked the spine of my Bible in a LONG time. I think tonight after work I’l going to. It’ll be good. I need to start a daily schedule, as much as I HATE being on a schedule. Oh well. It’ll help be pick up good habits.



Money

I’m poor. But conservative!

I realize that I’m only poor because I a - don’t work enough and b - don’t save enough. Soooo. I’m going to start doing more of both.
My VISA got racked up last month with $200 of unplanned expenses being charged to it ($150 for a 500GB External HD that was on sale, it saved me $200, and $50 for a 4GB flash drive that was on sale and saved me like $30). I’m just bouncing back to that because I got my VISA down to $50 (from almost $500). Next pay I’ll be flush again and can hopefully put some money away. Then I’ll put away more and more each pay. It’ll work out.
So, I need to sit down and make a budget. I realized I have $400 a month of money that I don’t know where it goes. I’ll have o figure that out. I’m going to be paying close attention to my spending for the next little bit.



SUCCESS!!

Changing workstations at work let me post again! WOOHOO!
So, right now my schedule consists of work, school, Alyssa, sleep. BUT I’m lucky and get to add a fifth item (which may take away from the forth, who knows). MORE SCHOOL!
Stream offers a program called Stream U. Basically, you have an array of courses you can study from and complete the work and in the end you can recieve a certificate for each of the programs you complete. These same courses would cost roughly $300 a course at Loyalist, but I get them free. And I can actually use the certificate on resumes and such. So, on my agenda is i-Net+, Network+ and Linux+. Then if I finish them, I’ll do Security+. That should be enough training to get a decent job as some low level IT somewhere if I ever need to. Plus I’ll learn alot which is cool.
In other news, I went to the mall today and saw Alyssa there(I knew she was there, that’s more or less why I went). While she had to talk to her boss I tagged behind her mom at Old Navy. When we were in the boys section and she was looking for clothes for Luke, Alyssa’s little brother, I happened across a sweater I liked that was on sale for $11.25. Even though it was in the boys section, the XL still fit well. SO. I have it on me now :) haha. Its good to know I can fit it boy clothes. Its probably less money than men’s haha.
Well. I should work. And do some Stream U while I work. My goal for today is to get my AHT (average handle time… the time it takes me to fix a customer’s problem) down since its at like 3 times what it should be.
Farewell.

Ooo. Pee ess. I started emailing Pastor Steve again. He’s really smart and I’m hoping he’ll be available for discussions at some points. I’d like to learn as much as I can from him in addition to what I’ll learn from Pastor Kevin. Should be good :)



A sign?

So, I’m torn (and not for the reason listed on my Battlecry today haha)

I listed my car for sale on Kijiji over a month ago and forgot all about it. I put it up there for $4000, $500 more than I paid for it (technically $1000 more than I paid for it, I still owe $500). All of a sudden between yesterday and today I’ve had THREE responses to it. Now, since its such a coincidence, I’m assuming that it might be Rob or Derek replying to it with fake emails that they get from customers at work. But I don’t know. If it is real, could it be a sign? Could God be offering me a way to fix my financial issues and get ahead again? I haven’t been tithing because I haven’t had enough money to. I know that’s not how it works but I’ve been struggling to stay afloat financially.
So, could this be a sign? An undeserved offering from God? If I even get $3500 for it I could easily find another car for cheaper and put away the rest in savings or toward my loan. I guess I’ll wait to figure out if it is Rob or Derek and go from there. And I’ll be praying.

God bless.
