OIL RIGS

Yesterday I was talking to Corey. He said that he was going out to British Columbia to work on the oil rigs. His mother said that she would pay for his plane ticket and some money to start out with. He already has a place to stay. He would be living with someone who just went out there a couple of months ago.

He also wants me to go out there with him when he leaves but that is not such a good idea. I do want to go out there but not yet. I would like to finish school first. On the other hand if I do go out there I could ask for nothing but money for Christmas and go out there later in the year. That way I could go to school at night or on weeks off. That way I could be doing school plus have a job on the rigs that pays about a thousand every two weeks.

It would also be good to discover new people and places.

There are only two things holding me back; school, my friends and family. I couldn't see mom caring much though because I would be working independently.

Maybe someday I will be ready to go out there.
