I had my one and only final today! Dun Dun Dun!!!! Should I tell you what subject? Ok, I will XD It was welding! That's right, I had a welding class this semester. Just for fun, and also just to see if I would like it as a possible career path, cause welders earn A LOT OF MONEY. Sure, it's a blue collar, construction job, and it can be quite dangerous, especially if you do, say, underwater pipe welding and stuff, but it earns very good money XD And I am not opposed to earning good money XD I'm not totally set on being a welder or any specific job, really, but I wanted to keep my options open and try my hand at something... useful. Cause lets face it, how useful is a degree in Psychology these days? Huh? I'd rather do more grunt work and have a job that is in demand, than be clean but not be sure of where I'm gonna work next, ya know? I feel like people and schools push University so much now a days, but 1- Its not for everyone and 2- Trade jobs are in high demand right now because the old people that used to do them are retiring! Trust me, I know. My dad is one of them. He doesn't do welding, but he does do a "blue collar/grunt work job" that pays a lot and is in need of new blood XD And I feel like a lot of people maybe think that welding and stuff is something that robots can do, but thats not true. What my teacher told me, and I believe it, is that, there are about 300,000 welders needed in America. 300,000!!!!! DDAAAAMMMMM! And that means that there are a lot of jobs and a lot of opportunities and, from what I've heard, you can basically choose when you want to work and still earn really good money. (By the way, backtracking here, but no offense to anyone with a Psychology degree XD It was just the first one that came to mind.) But, so yeah, I frankly, wouldn't mind being a welder. I don't mind being sweaty and stuff and doing hard work. I'm just afraid of like, burning myself, or hurting myself in another way x"D Cause i've heard stories, from even the best wellders, of being hurt and stuff... and its not fun. I don't like pain XD So, that's one thing I'd have to really contend with, but I think that as long as you follow all the safety precautions, you really should be fine. I mean, my life is in God's hands and if something is gonna happen, its just gonna happen XD So yeah.
I didn't start this out thinking I'd talk about welding, but alas, it happened. What else? Oh! Actually I did have a sort of eventful day... well, for a few hours. But I'm honestly not sure I should talk about it, cause it involved other people... Well... its not like it was bad... Well it wasn't for me anyway... XD Should I? Well, I'll be vague and just say that I saw someone who I never reallu expected to see again, but I mean, we go to the same school XD And at first I was gonna ignore this person, but then this person saw me, so I decided to go up and say "hey" XD It could have been awks, but I think it went ok. It would have been funny to see what this person said after I left XD Cause I honestly mean no hard feelings to this person, and I don't think this person does for me either, its just something that... didn't work out, you know. But maybe this person sees it differently than I do. So, I dunno, in the case that this person ever read this and got that it was that person... I just wanna say, "I'm sorry if I did hurt your feelings in any way, and I'd honestly still be friends if you wanted :)"
Anyway, yeah, totes vague XD But I'm sure you can sorta figure out what happened a bit. XD But yeah, finals are over!!! Since I aint got school I know work will pick up. But I'm excited to get back to work! I wasn't able to for a few weeks because of my foot injury!
Also, since i brought up the vague person, I'll also just say, shoutout to my Art History teacher that I got to talk to again today! ^_^ I had a lot of fun in her class and she's a great person! Also, shout out to my welding teachers and stuff. They were awesome and helped me to improve so much! I still need a lot of work, but at least I have a foot hold now.
Ok, I'm done with my speech! XD Until next post, God Bless and Toodles!!! :D
