I have an interview again on Monday, I hope... I assume it won't be canceled again but you never know. I am nervous. I will do a whole bunch of research on the boys and girls club just to make it easier for myself.
I am going to start mentoring at ChristieCare. It used be called Christie School but they changed it recently so they wouldn't be thought of as a school. It's more of a place for kids to go when their parents or family members are involved in a drug bust etc. Basically keeps the kids there so they don't have to be in the drama. Also, some of the kids that go there don't even have family, so they could be there for up to two years or so.
I guess the school/orphanage started in 1859 and the admin. building used to be the orphanage and it still have girl's names carved in the walls from the kids so long ago. And the site is pretty much the end of the Oregon Trail. So neat! And the admin building was the first building in Oregon to get electricity. Just some fun facts for ya. I am really excited about getting involved with these guys because I know they are hiring. So I think I will mentor a kid, something I really want to do, and then if they have to leave Christie I will just get it out there that I am looking for a job, since I can't mentor and work there at the same time... I also just want to be a part of something outside of my own little selfish world. Just listening to the lady there talk, well I have it pretty fuckin easy.
James came up here on Thursday night cuz he had an interview on Friday. It is going really well. His interviewer told him he is one of the six they are considering hiring! So he will probably have a job even before he leaves school. Wish it was that easy for me...
We went to breakfast this morn and he started talking about how he wants to get a place for us when he starts making money. That scared me. I don't want my life planned out for me. Not really to settle down yet. And don't want my life planned for me. I just don't know. I haven't experienced anything I want to yet. Can I do that and be with him? I never know. I wish it was easy.
Oh, brother quit school. Just wasn't for him. I knew that already. He is going to work for a while then decide whether he's ready to go back to like pcc or something. He might already have a job lined up. So depressing. It's been three and a half months, and no job for me!
I'm going to try and lower my phone plan now. Laters.
