I'm in kind of a funk right now. I don't really feel like writing. I'm doing this one because of the daily commitment.

I started this entry at the beginning of lunch. Lunch is almost over, and this is as much as I've written.

Update 11:11 pm- I'm home now, and I'm glad that I didn't post earlier. I wound up having a talk with my co-worker Red that got me thinking.
I forget exactly how we got on the topic, but he talked about how he was changing his schedule to go to school, trying to become a licensed vocational nurse. He told me about how he had a bachelor's degree in marketing from a school back home in The Philippines, but couldn't get anywhere in America with it.
As the conversation went on, Red told me that I shouldn't stay with the printing company, that he thought I could do better. Admittedly, I work there because my options aren't great at the moment, and I told him I didn't really like working there very much. I like my job well enough, but I'm not interested enough in what I do to pursue a promotion.
It's gotten me thinking about what I would to do. My mind went back to the fundraising we did when Joshua and Samantha Bahruth went on their South Africa missions trip two years ago. I liked doing that; I was helping others and I was building my first Christian relationships. If I could do something along those lines, I think that's something I'd like to do. I want to eventually be able to support a family, or a wife at the very least.
Anyway, it's something for me to think and pray about, and perhaps see what possibilities are out there.
