Drunk Make-Up

World Religion

In the past two months I have been bewildered by indigenous religion, inspired by Hinduism, touched by Siddhartha Gautama in Buddhism, had my breath taken away because of Judaism, and learned a ton from Islam.

Getting Closer



Week 7, my last week is on week 9. University of Phoenix is still pressuring me to continue my education. All I want to know is what I can do with my Associates. (No, nothing was explained because they are too busy trying to make a quick buck.) We view a list of jobs. The jobs listed one was a librarian (hardly any jobs), elementary teacher (maybe), or social worker.
Plenty of social work jobs considering Idaho is dysfunctional. She continues to pressure me about furthering my education in psychology. This is the same aggressive pressure from the get go. No, I will not continue my education. No, you do not need a special degree to be a social worker. How do I know? Research was conducted about them during one of my papers, mi amigos.
I know tons of people dealing with them. It's a government job. Everybody knows that the government has cut many jobs...this includes social workers! This means that the office is only open on certain times of the week making it a part-time job. This explains why people dealing with social services are having a hard time contacting anyone. Why should I pursue a higher degree? A part-time job will not pay a $50,000 degree let alone help me pay my house payments. Nice try.
My plan is to get out while I still can. I think it is irresponsible to participate with the other Americans who are racking up a million dollar student loan debt. If the economy improves, which it will not as long as people continue to be financially irresponsible, I may go back to college. Not University of Phoenix, not ever again. Maybe if I had someone in my life, I may return. Again, not University of Phoenix.
To add to the stress, Frank's gland acted up again. Most of the plans I had for the tax return are gone. I could not get to work for four hours. The vet was suggesting surgery to have his gland removed. This costs about $400 to $500. For now, Frank is on medication. He seems to be doing fine.

Enough With the Snarky Remarks Already

Three more weeks to go. I am seriously thinking of emailing friends instead of forking out $130 to buy invitations. Were there many people to help me when I asked for something? Maybe a handful of people. People who are tech savvy may receive a couple of emails. People who are not may get something handmade.
Then it will be no more waiting for information to load. University of Phoenix has a sloooow website. They refuse to change it back. Do I use their social network? No. If I want a pervert stalking me, I have Yahoo.
No more waiting for the material to download. I do not have the actual books for class. The last two classes have not been loading the chapters quick enough. I ordered the book for World Religion and it should be here in time for my test.
I'm trying to get a week off during my final week. That way, I do not have any distractions. I may or may not be available. The phone may be off, I'm not sure.

Graduation ceremony is at Centurlink Arena 6/2/12 at 10AM. Because of the lack of information that UoP is notorious for, I will double check the time.
