Journal Entry

I am in Sandstone, Minnesota. This place a lot different from Allenwood. More gang activity here. But I am staying away from it. Woke-up at 7am this morning after one of inmates started screaming and banging his head on the wall under influence of drugs. I can not believe how some people could waist their lives on meaningless things. I have been completely sober for over 40 month now! So, while everyone were “enjoying the show” I did my morning pull-ups on water pipe in our unit followed by push-ups. Continuing to read Dave Ramsey book “complete guide to money”.

Today I pick-up my rejected BP-8 form and new BP-9. FBOP is trying to take my FTCs away based on fact that I am not a U.S. citizen. But they can not do that because I am legal resident here. Only judge can place final order of removal on me. an this will (or will not) happened after my sentence is over. Also instead of waiting 14 day for response on my BP-8 I went to my case worked and asked him to reject it right the way. This saved me 12 day in this process. This what Dr. Stephen Covey would call ” being proactive” in his book ” 7 habits of highly effective people”.
