Morning, James!

That is usual for me, there are much more students who live in villages and head to schools in larger cities. Others live in student accomodations like on a campus or spread across a town. But they are higher educated and studies get difficult too.

Oh, interesting. What are you studying?

Good morning guys! How is everyone? Nigh, are you feeling more settled? Susie, are you doing alright?

Honestly, not really. Still worried about myself, my friend, my family, another friend... :\ Thank you for asking

Sorry to hear that. I'm praying for you.

Have you found a place to pray?

Thank you I did, sort of. There's a chapel here that's open during the day for people to come in and pray if they want. It's kind of far from my dorm, but it's better than nothing. I wish I could focus on praying with other people around, but it just doesn't work out. :\

Awesome! I wish I would have utilized the prayer chapel at my college, but I never did. I was afraid other people would see me being vulnerable, so I took my walks in the middle of the night

Administrative worker, working with finance.
although it's not really my thing, I hope I can finish before July next year. Right now I'm thinking of doing something else three years from now, maybe I want to become a train driver

LOL I do. I found myself panicking yesterday about who to invite and what to do about a reception because the fellowship hall is too small to fit everyone! And I'm new to the church so I'm only really close to a couple of the people there, but I talk to others.... do I invite everyone or not? If I do, I fill a whole church. But who would be offended if I didn't invite them?

Don't worry about whether people will be offended.

How many can the hall fit? Once you figure that out, then start with your family members and closest friends...discuss with him who he is going to want to invite from his friends and family. Tally all that up, THEN invite others. Also have to consider the wedding party...how many do you want on each side, yada yada. Lotsa stuff to think about.

That's part of my problem... I don't want to pray where someone might walk by. :\ I feel silly sometimes, though, because we all need God, so what's the harm in showing that? But vulnerability is difficult. But this chapel isn't actually owned by the school, so it's usually pretty quiet.

If you don't like finance, why are you studying it?

Well 2 years ago I graduated from secundary school, and I looked for the next thing to go for, and in the first place, it was the train driver but I was'nt able to join a school where they were teaching it, one school was full and nearby in a town called Zwolle they wanted to start an education for it but they cancelled it at the last moment before the next season began.

And I wanted to do it badly but I was forced to look for something else. I went for social worker, but quit after a year because I totally did'nt like it.
Same story for that year, I had to look further for another study. I quit at the end of the holidays, the last week so I really had to make a quick decision. The finance study was the only one available for me out of a few that I liked.

I started at level 4 (three years total) but due to some personal discoveries I recently decided to step down one level to level 3, and that means that I can finish this year. I am able to work with finance, but it's not something I want to do my whole life.

I think that that is the train driver job, that I desire since two years. I think it's facinating and I'd love to be it. But I've got some other things planned so I have at least 3 years to decide if I really want to go that way.
