I’ve been going back and forth on if I should be sitting here right now writing this post? One minute I do and the next minute I rather be doing something else other than writing this post even though I’m going to be sitting at the computer. Why do I not want to be writing this post? Sometimes I feel nobody cares what I write in this blog. I do have a small set of friends that I do know read this blog. So small that I can count them on one hand basically. But I’m happy to be writing this anyway.
It’s official. I got the official IDA word that I have completed the program and I can start looking for a car. So, that means I can start looking for my Hyundai Elantra or Sonata that’s some where between $4,000 to $6,000. But anything over $4,000 I have to try and get a loan for. Here is what I have to do. I have two months to look for this car, I have to get insurance, come from a dealership, and if I get a loan, the loan rate has to be less than 11%. Plus, have to get the car inspected before I get the $2,000 from Brighton Center. I’m very excited and can’t wait until I find the car I want. Bring on the cars!
This Thursday, 3/10/2011, I’m going to be heading to my mom’s place to setup up her home network and new computer. I will be taking off of work on Friday, 3/11/2011 and Monday, 3/14/2011 to have the time to do it. Why am I bringing this up? Because as part of our agreement, I get her old computer that I’m replacing with the new computer. So, I will be adding one more computer to my already large collection of computers I got here at the house. Yippee!!!!
Speaking of computer, I recently started working on one of my computers idea for one of computers I have here. As some of you seen from my tweet, I have introduced “Aural Euphoria” to my long list of computers I have. “Aural Euphoria” is all about multimedia. She is going to be my music computer where I download music and etc. She is also going be the computer where I create my videos and podcasts. Basically, if it’s multimedia, “Aural Euphoria” is going to be the girl handling it. As of right now, she barely has a leg to stand on to be honest. I have to do a lot of upgrading to “Aural Euphoria” to get her to a place where I can do all the things I want to do. So, it will take some time but “Aural Euphoria” will get there.
Also, lately been doing a lot of thinking about life again. I tend to do this a lot. I don’t think people or friends really understand how much AmeriCorps have really changed my life. If I could I would do AmeriCorps for the rest of my life but I can’t. The max I could would be four years. But if things go the way it does, I might not be able to do all four years as government is looking to cut it’s budget and AmeriCorps is on the chopping blocks. Which got me thinking life lately. Should I start ramping up my job searching machine and start looking? Am I ready to get back into the workforce? Is two years of AmeriCorps enough for updating my work experience I currently have? These are the type of questions I ask myself over and over. What do you think? Should I start looking and applying for other jobs? But it doesn’t stop there for me though. Also, been thinking that I can do more. What exactly I’m not sure? But just have this feeling that I can do a lot more than what I’m doing. Ever had those feelings?
Well, so much for being short and quick huh? I guess I better head to bed. Had serious allergies/sinus problems lately that I' seem to shake away from. So, I need to get as much sleep as possible to feel refreshed in the morning. Night and talk to you all later.
