Part of me has an itch to go back to do some learning in a school type enviroment. Possibly work towards a 2 year degree of somesort. But I can't afford it or even pretend to, especialy with my present job and situation. I wouldn't even want to go to school here in salem at Chemeketa who also happens to be my employer (and no because i work for them doesnt mean that i get any kind of discount or shit other than a pay check from them). I'd want to go to Lane CC, as they have a good CS program. I guess I will just have to see how long this itch itches me and if its long enough and turns out to really need scratching. I will.
10:46am: I need a new lunch buddy. Now that Chris got a new job in portland. We used to do lunch on a decentltly regular basis. But it's not really an option anymore...
Posted by Ben at April 02, 2003 09:01 AMCalifornia CC's are from 1/3 to 1/5 cheaper than Oregon CC's. It kicks ass! And, of course, little miss thing here is fighting to keep it that way! Pro-TEST! Pro-TEST! The news channels love me. :)
Posted by: Kala on April 2, 2003 10:31 AMI don't really see California as much of an option for me right now. But that is an intersting tibit of information. and GO KALA. Keep your tution down. And is it really any suprise that the news love you?
I wasn't suggesting, I was bragging. :)
The protests are over for now, but the fight rages on.
No surprise, but they do get pissed when I'm on every local news channel. Something about a spotlight hog. Hey, they pointed the cameras at me, it's not like I had a gun to their heads.
Lor, if it's not one thing, it's another. I just got in a huge fight with Nick, in which he basically degraded me and ruined my day. Sonow I've gotta pick whether: a) I do the normal Kala routine of forgiving, trying to teach a lesson, and resuming normal life with one of my closest and most cherished friends, or b) admitting to myself that he repeatedly kicks the life out of me, emotionally, and walk away from an unhealthy situation. This is gonna be a tough call.
Posted by: Kala on April 3, 2003 12:06 AMI'm sorry to hear about Nick.
Perhaps you could do a combination of the 2. Somehow get him to see the wrongs of his ways if you can get him to see that and to realize a) he doesnt like how he is b) that he needs to work on things cause he hurts people that care about him c) other
if not then walk away...
Posted by: Ben on April 3, 2003 08:35 AMBeen there, done that, got the scars to show for it. But I'm going to try it anyway, because I just don't like to walk away from friends. Sure, I'll storm out, but I'll be back. Like clockwork.
Right, Ben? ;)
