day 36
well i woke up at two oclock because james forgot his keys and decided to play tunes on the door bell. i wasn't about to let the idiot in he was drunk and he deserved to learn a lesson then mustafa got a phine call and went to get the door then they stayed up for a hour and tallked loudly in the kitchen. next time this happens i'm gonna open my window and throw somthing at him and call him stupid and maybe diconect the buzzer in the kitchen. actually i think i maybe able to turn it off using the circut baord. anyway i'm gonna turn off power to his room tonight and see how he likes it. adam palmshimer he gets drunk evry night so when i get baack to central i'm gonna look up his room number and call security on him evry night (i'll be doing a fovor to mankind. he lost his license over a dui just before he came here and he s happy because the time limit will be up by the time he gets back. he is going to be a lawyer. the only way to keep him in jail is if he commits vehicular manslaughter.
its actually funny to listen to them complan about how hard it is to drink at central. and central should become a wet campus so they can get drunk easier. they don't understand the politics involved they just want instant gratification and dam the consiquences.
well i have placemnt tests for tomarrow so i need to study really hard today so i can get into a higher level.
i heard a student say that the prison is schedualed to be demolished in the next month. i saw workers drilling 6" wide and probably 20' deep holes around the prison so either they are gonna use explosives (doubtfull) or they are gonna run wire underground before they do it. or they are working on somthing else and he prison demolishin is just a rummer.
i'm gonna make mexican rice for lunch today i'm not sure how it will turn out.
i think that is all. i don't think they will get drunk tonight because of tests tomarrow but they may get drunk on monday night.
one more month to go before i go to austria.
i have 8 1/4 months before i graduate an have to get a job but i'm still not sure what to do. i don't have any real training in anyfield that i want to work in and my philosphy degree doesn't look like its gonna help any. with most degrees you can get into teaching or engineering or some other field but philosophy is so broad that it seems i can't do anything with it. i can walk up to an employer and say "i can contemplate your existance" but thats about it. i think i may have to go to a tech school to get training to get a career.
5 of those months i will be over here so i will have a hard time getting everything i need to get done before graduation done on time. i should have gone farther in physics but i took the intro class which is a dead end for people who just want to fill the science requirment. i also should have stayed in the managment class. i should have tried to take more credits over all. other than that i think i did fairly well in college.
i've decided that the amount of money i would save and the time that i would use the bike in vienna is not worth getting it there. so i'm gonna sell it. i'm not sure if the bike shop buys bikes or not i'll have to ask them. but before i do that i'm gonna offer it to the central students. who want to take the train anyway. if niether will take it i'll try the goethe institute and if they won't buy it i'll donate it to the institute. if that doesn't work i guess i'll leave it at the trainstation. it will cost more than 100 euro to get it there and thats the cost of trains all semester. and it will be to cold to ride pretty soon anyway so i'll save more money and effort by getting rid of it.

No no no - you don't walk up to an employer and say "I can contemplate your existence." You say, "I can THINK, and know how to ask difficult questions!"
It'll feel a little easier when you get back to the States -- Central has a whole department (Career Services) devoted to finding gainful employment for students and alumni. When you get back to Pella, they'll help you set up a credential file (with letters of reference/recomendation) and start connecting you to employers/jobs.
(And you can always pick up a class/workshop to get skills that you feel you're missing).
