I usually change my mind on my intentions about the future, but for now, these are my goals:
Quote:
Meantime (financial):
1.) Find a job.
2.) Keep the job.
3.) Actually save the money,
rather than compulsively spend.
Meantime (educational):
1.) Retake the ACT.
2.) Possibly take the SAT.
3.) CLEP any subjects that I can.
General:
1.) Keep my thoughts honorable to God.
2.) Stop being depressed.
Future (educational):
1.) Go to a Christian college that has a linguistics program.
2.) Keep GPA at or above 3.59
Future (vocational):
1.) Survey or translate for Wycliffe if accepted.
Here is the program/courses I'd be taking at the college I've found:
