I've been giving a lot a thought into things lately, particularly my life and the people who I decide to alow into it and be a part of it. I've always been able to make friends very easily, seems to happen quite often when I'm having a good day. I realize that the life I have been living isn't one which has any beneficial values. The constant partying and hanging out is doing nothing to me but decaying my brain slowly. I am giving thought into becoming a police officer or fire fighter once I finish my degree in Human Service. Thats the real reason I picked the major in the first place. I have no real interest in becoming a counselor or anything like that, however I do find myself to be a good listener. I was researching how much police officers make yearly which suprised me. Hopefully after several years on the job without dying, I will be able to make detective and pull a six figure income. There's always the possibility of death with a job such as this, but death doesn't really scare me. I've come to close to it to many times to count. I'm a hard person to kill, something I was trying to explain to Cori the other night while I was explaining to her my career goals. My true goal and dream is to become a fire fighter, but if the chance comes up to be a cop, I will certainly take up on that as well. The both involve public safety and a human service. State trooper would be a great career, one in which my friend Ricky is most likely going to get. I know that something will come along with the career path I have decided upon, I just don't want to be carrying around speaker equiptment and wiring cd players, mixers, and dj equiptment my entire life. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I hate the job; I just don't find any enjoyment in really doing it. I think the most enjoyment I get is when I finish setting up and I get to hang out in the club. I do enjoy being surrounded by all the attractive women and having a good time, but a girl at a night club isn't the kind of girl I'm looking for. There are a few girls at school who have my attention, but what I really need to do is stay concentrated on my academics right now. I've spent to many years of my life partying and having a good time. I can do that come summer time, but now I have to constantly remind myself that I can't go out to the bar when Ashley asks me or come to a party when Amanda is throwing one at her apartment. I love getting out and having the social interactions, I just end up smoking up and getting drunk; two states that have lost there appeal to me. I know that if I continue to pray and focuss myself on God, he will lead me in the right direction for my life.
