Jo’s BJU Approved Blog

I tried to quit my job several times this week, but my boss was always in a bad mood or away. I need to tell her this week. I’ll know in about 2 weeks what I’ll be doing in the fall.

I’ll be checking out the teaching opportunity in Texas from June 9-12. They are paying for me to come down. It’s looking promising, but I won’t know til I’m there. I still can’t imagine living in Texas, but I’m ready for a change. Bring it on.

I graduate Saturday. I’m gonna talk to some of my friends while I am up there, but as of now I am leaning toward staying home til the spring semester and then heading off to grad school at BJU.

I received more info in the mail from the school in Indianapolis that was pursuing me. I’m not impressed with 2 things. One, the first thing on their faculty guidlines says that teachers must be saved and tithe to the church. I don’t know why they would say that you need to tithe to the church. Obviously, I would tithe to the church but I don’t think that should be included in the #1 rule right next to salvation. They don’t mention other items of obedience such as baptism or anything else like that. It just makes me think that they will be too involved in decisions that I think should be between me and the Lord. Also, the whole skirt-length, culottes thing isn’t exactly up my alley either. I’d be ok wearing a skirt all the time. I would not wear culottes though, and I have no problem with pants. I don’t think I’d really know without visiting, but something just doesn’t feel right to me after going through the info.

Texas is looking better and better…I hope to apply there soon.
