hello my name is Valentin, i am a 32 year old white male and i am originally from little rock Arkansas. i plan on coming to Tulsa Oklahoma in the month of march to begin school at the Tulsa welding school where i plan on receiving my associates degree in CWI and NDT. i will be attending school full time and i also plan on looking for a full time job as a welder so i will be very busy. the only downfall to my situation is that i just got out of prison and im trying to better myself. due to this it will be a little difficult for me to pursue this dream unless i can find someone to move in with who is not a felon or who does not do drugs. as a condition of my parole transfer the person who agrees to allow me to move in with them must provide my parole officer with proof that you will allow me to live with you while im going to school. this may require a quick one time visit from a parole officer to check the home for drugs, weapons and felons. i just wanted to mention this all up from because i want to be up front about my situation without beating around the bush about myself. to explain my charges, i was charged with possession of hydrocodone and failure to appear and i spent three years in prison for it. i dont ever plan on going back to drugs or any type of criminal lifestyle. All i want to do and all ive ever wanted to do is to pursue my dream and go to college. i am very dedicated and motivated to do this and to live a better life and to change it so this is the reason why i want to go to school and move to Tulsa Oklahoma. I have included a picture of myself just so you can see what I look like. For anyone who is reading this i pray that you will consider this and take it into consideration. i plan on starting school in February so if u can consider this please let me know. i have 500 in cash that i can pay for rent for the first month. i do have my own car and i will be working as soon as i move there because i have a job set up. if your reading this and if your willing to help me then can you please text me. it would mean the world to me. thanks and GOD bless. --76.188.xxx.xx

Gee, I don't see any funny. Just a bad situation. We need welders but he's putting the cart before the horse. --73.178.xxx.xx

Yikes! --68.10.xxx.xxx

Sounds like a plan, there will be many difficult times during it's execution. --68.60.xxx.xx

As AllyM [NJ] wrote, this is a sad situation. For me, it's highly unrealistic. For $500.00 down:and a photo of myself, I want to bunk with you for 8 months ... until I start my schooling. What does he intend to do in the interim, besides dealing with the parole officer visits? Too many loose ends; too few ironclad commitments. I see big trouble in viewing my crystal ball. --99.203.xxx.xx
