I STARTED A NEW JOB AT THE UNICOR FACTORY OF QUALITY CONTROL. I MUST SAY ITS A GRADE ONE POSITION AND I FEEL LIKE I GOT PROMOTED TO STRING CUTTER(LOL) WELL I GUESS I WILL BE THE BEST ONE I CAN BE. NO BUT FOR REAL ITS JUST ONE OF THE MANY SPOTS OF THE POSITION. ON TUES MICHAEL SANTOS VISITED OUR PRISON HERE IN ALICEVILLE AND IT WAS VERY INSPIRATIONAL. I HAVE NOW BEEN TRYING TO START MY DAY WITH A NEW OUTLOOK OF WHAT OPPORTUNITIES DO I SEE TODAY FOR GROWTH AND PERSONAL ADVANCEMENT?? TO REALLY BE AWARE AND NOT STUCK ON AUTO PILOT. I HAVE DECIDED I WANT TO BECOME AN ENGINEER. IS 40 TO LATE IN LIFE TO DO SO? I HOPE NOT. I FIGURE ITS A FOUR YEAR DEGREE AND I COULD GET MOST OF IT DONE DURING MY INCARCERATION. NEXT STEP..I NEED TO FIGURE OUT WHAT SCHOOLS OFFER CORRESPONDANCE CLASSES. THEN CONTACT THEM. MY GOAL DATE IS BY SEPT 30TH TO HAVE THAT PART FIGURED OUT. WELL I AM ONLY ON LUNCH BREAK FROM WORK BUT WILL TRY TO BE BETTER ABOUT JOURNALING.
