well...
i've been keeping up in my actual journal but...
sorry livejournal
i havent been on in a while
Soooo much has happened!
a couple of weeks ago
i was hanging out with the guys from church
and they started talking about married life
and i started thinking about how dubuque has changed me
and how i never thought about getting married
until i came here, and started going to great adventure
the guys then asked me about how anna and i were doing
and i didnt know how to answer
they thought we were dating
which i had never thought about
but i can see now, why they would have thought that
and when i told them that we werent dating
they were surprised
and encouraged me to pursue a relationship with her
i'll cut out some of the weird awkwardness
and make a medium story short
anna soderman and i are now "dating"
i've never liked putting an official term on it
but, yes, you could call it "dating"
i would like to call it something like...
"connecting and getting to know each other
spiritually, and learning what love means
in order to love someone else
with a Godly, selfless love
in hopes that one day God's will
can be revealed"
but i guess if you want to call it "dating"
thats cool too
thursday april 29th was the date
its been going great so far
we've been going out together
about as much as we did before it was "official"
i've got some fun date nights planned for the future
so we'll see what God has in store
:)
i got a call from air cargo carriers,
and got an interview set up with them.
i drove up to milwaukee, wisconsin
and did the interview, which was pretty simple
-50 questions written test from the instrument written
-simulator eval flying instrument appchs in a PCATD
-HR and chief pilot interview with no surprises
-a piss test, and lots of paperwork
it was a great experience
but i did not get a response... :(
i had a chance to chat with the other people
that i was interviewing with
and they all had considerably more time than myself
so its no surprise that they went with them
i was kinda looking forward to flying nights,
relaxing days, and going home on the weekends
even though i'd be based somewhere far away from home
but i would have had to sign a contract for one year
and i would be locked into that with almost no way out
i'm still planning on going down to tulsa, oklahoma
at the end of july to flight instruct
the bad thing there is that there would be no coming home
for quite some time because of the distance
and the insane cost to fly
but i'm not locked in for any certain amount of time
so i can come back in 10 months if i want to
and there is a 30 day probationary period
in which i can decide if this is really right for me
i am praying
and you can be praying for me as well
that on of the full-timers from UD
gets hired on, and sometime SOON!
so i can slip in there full-time
i'm afraid though, that even if one of them leaves
they might be able to justify not hiring another full-timer
and keeping someone on part-time, just giving them
a full-time load of students
which is what i did for a while
it sucks, but it works...
anywho
gotta get going
peace out!
