So I actually had an interesting week. Not only did I have an interview but I was offered a job to work at the local gym/natatorium here in Texas City. It was probably going to be a good job but the boss said that she would want me to commit to staying through the summer at least until August. I told her my intentions of moving to Austin and becoming a Real Estate agent and I think that was the deciding factor in me turning the position down. I went and talked with an old coach from the high school and he explained how they have been having a lot of trouble with finding substitutes for the high school. He assured me that if I started to sub, I could definitely sub a lot. The assistant tennis coach needs a sub for his french class and he's out at least twice a week. He told me that he would let the coach know so that I could be the sub of his class. This coming Thursday, Jeremy and I are going to the substitute class at the high school so hopefully I could start subbing as soon as possible.
On Wednesday after I had my interview, I had an eye doctor's appointment. Long story short, I'm kind of a self-diagnosed hypochondriac. I know, I know that's silly, right? No, it's not. I wish that I wasn't one but it happens. Anyway, I have floaters in my eye with the occasional onset of flashes. Basically, floaters are pockets of jelly in your eye that move around. They are harmless and don't really have a cause. The bad thing is sometimes they fall on your retina and pull pieces of it off causing flashes. I needed to make sure that I did not have a torn retina or anything like that so that's why I went to the doc. He did a lot of tests including dilating my eyes and looking inside. He said that everything looks fine and that he even saw one of my floaters but did not see any tearing of either retina. Thank God. Sometimes I force myself to believe that there's something wrong with me and then I get to researching on the internet about the different things that could be wrong and I start to freak out. Like I said, I wish that I wasn't like this but it happens to the best of us I guess. You could definitely be praying for me about that.
So now I'm just waiting on income tax to come in so I can start on my Real Estate license. I want to move to Austin knowing that I can be financially stable for at least two months because that's how long the turn around will be on being an agent. So let's say I start subbing for the rest of the year and I have to take out expenses like dealing with my car, paying for some stuff on the loans, and all the money I will spend. I need to start helping my parents out with my car note, insurance and phone bill. I want to jump in head first and start making money so I can be independent. That's all I want to be is independent, on my own and not having to worry about my parents helping me out. I just want to grow up and do it fast.
So I was talking to Drew Taggart today and he told me I should come back to camp this summer. I've been thinking about that all day. What if I went up for pre-o, orientation, 1st and 2nd sessions? That'd be great. That would also probably be the last time I would be at camp. If I did go, I would like to have oldest boys at least ONCE. The other time I would like to be in the summit. Is that too much to ask? I will be a four-year returner if I come back so I would love to be with oldest boys. I know that I could do a good job with them. Also, I would like to be chief. teehee Just kidding, but seriously, I want to be chief. I know I could be a good one.
It's 1:19 AM and I have to wake up early because it's going to be a long day with 400 junior high and high school crazies. I must get sleep.
