New College Plans?

Wednesday, November 30th, 2005

Boy, I’m getting sick of changing plans every semester or so! Phooey on change.

Anyhow. Oklahoma Baptist U. (here in Shawnee) apparently has more scholarship money than they know what to do with, and over ninety percent of the students barely pay for anything at all.

Financially, there’s no way I can go to college full time this coming semester. Most of the scholarships I’ve been applying for are for NEXT year. Okay, so I’m not so good at this, I’ll admit it. But Mom and I were talking, and we think it’s a good idea to look into taking some classes at OBU this next semester. I’ve been praying about it… and I’d really like some prayer on this. I don’t know if the Lord is leading me to another college or away from college altogether. So I could REALLY use some prayer on this.

Paint… finally.

My hands are covered in paint. I have paint on my arms, on my pants, on my face and… yep, a little in my hair too. Paint parties? A blast.

We’re nowhere near done, but we have enough done that I can go down during the week and work on painting. And I LOVE MY ROOM. You think those colors looked good on the computer? Well they ROCK on my walls. Wow. I’m in love.

I’ve been pretty busy with that and some other stuff, so I’ve been, like, anti-updating. I promise I’ll cut that out.

A Car Would Be Awesome, Thanks.

What an awesome possible turn of events.

So. My mom has the mini-van, right? And my dad has his car… a little red Mazda? I’m car inept, give me a break. Well, Dad might be getting a promotion, and if so, he would need a pickup.

A guy in our congregation has a Range Rover that just needs a little work, and he’s giving it to Dad. I don’t know why! And Dad just talked to a guy at work who may be willing to trade him. A Range Rover for a pickup.

And then I get the little red Mazda. Hooray for free cars!!
