Yuumi and Andrew |
March 08 Full weekI had another interview this morning! This one was for Alltel. I pray that I can land this job. The pay is good and the people were very nice. I could also use this job as a good resume builder and to put money away for Yuumi and I. Speaking of Yuumi, I have been doing better with trying to keep my mind off of the distance. This last week was very tough. The toughest so far from being away from her. But, I know that time will pas and soon enough we will be on our way to starting life together. As of now though, trying to figure out how I will be able to juggle a full-time job and attend school full-time is my main hurdle. I would really like to finish school within a year and a half, so that means I will have to be at the school the majority of the day. How is this going to work with a job? Well, I know that I will be giving plasma for cash so at least that is there. God will provide! March 06 The ConnectionIt seems that when my spirits are down, lately there is something great to bring them back up. God has been really taking care of me! Today I was able to talk to Yuumi again. We talked for about 30 minutes. I really needed that because I am still having difficulties being away from her. So just now I e-mailed her before she was going to work as usual and I received a phone call. I have another job interview! I was told that out of a large stack of applications and resumes, I was one of three people chosen to be interviewed! The great thing about this job is that the pay is EXTREMELY good for this area! This will help me significantly in paying back my student loans and also saving for my future plans. GOD IS GREAT! I just pray now that I can land that job!
Another thing that was comforting today was the the sun was shining on her at the same time it was shining on me. That can only happen at 5pm for me and 7am for her.I really look up to Yuumi. She works so hard and has basically no time for herself. What an inspiration she is. When you work hard and pursue what you want, things go smoothly. But, besides all of that I believe that prayer is key! God is the one who ultimately provides in our lives so why wouldn't we have a good relationship with him? Praise God! March 05 SuccessGreat news! I have beensearching for a job since I arrived home on the 20th of February. Well, I had an interview today and I was hired on the spot! This is an answer to prayer! Now I can start putting money away for Yuumi and I! Also, I won't have all of this down time to just sit and ponder about my girl and good memories. I mean, its good to think about those things, but not all of the time. Loneliness can be such a drag. I was also able to talk to Yuumi this morning before my interview and before she went to bed. That was much needed. The only bad thing is that international phne cards go so fast! For $10.00 I can get 40 minutes of talk time. That my friends is expensive. I have eaten up 2 of those bad boys since I've been home. When I was stuck in Chicago I spent about $10.00 in quarters at an international payphone. I wish there were some cheaper way of calling internationally. I know there is skype, but I have to set up an account for that.
Anyways, praise God for this answer to prayer! I feel so fortunate to have found a job so quickly. And the way that things are turning out for summer semester for school, I know the big man is looking out for me ^_^ March 04 WaitingI am having a really difficult time playing this waiting game. The sad thing is, I still have 2 more years to go! I don't know how I am going to be able to handle not seeing Yuumi for such a long time. If anyone can help me out and suggest something I would really appreciate it. As of now I am still looking for a job and school won't start up until May. So, if I don't land a job soon, having all of this time to tink and ponder is going to get the best of me. There really isn't much a person can do after they submit an application for work. All that there really is to do is to just call and follow-up. That's what I am doing right now. I really feel that if I was busy, that my mind wouldn't be able to wanderas much as it does. I am also looking to God to help me through this. No matter what, He is always there. March 03 WeekendWow! This weekend was awesome! I hung out with my sister, bro-in-law, nephews and parents. We went to this sledding place in Negaunee, MI and man was it a blast. The track was something like 750 feet long, but it was all down hill and ice! It was so fast! The cool thing is, it is in some guy's backyard. Apparently he has been running this place for 30 some years and he just opens it up to the public! There was also a 30 foot snowman there and the bathroom was an igloo they had made! I love the outdoors here in Upper Michigan!
I just wish that a certain someone could have been here to enjoy this last weekend with my family and I. Two years seems to be a really long time. I just have to look forward to the future though and not just wait for it. I wonder how couples that have to wait 2 years to see eachother cope with the distance and time. I will just keep my eyes on God, Yuumi, and my goals. Most importantly Christ though. |
