College again
Jan 9^th, 2008, 11:45pm

well, like Aiesha, I'm startin' back to school. friday will be my first day back. I'm takin' 10 credits this semester and workin' 50 to 60 hours a week to pay for it.
I plan to keep postin' here, but i might have a few weeks between at times with tests and all, so if I'm not around to help with problem Fernando will be and he's better at fixin' this place than I am.

Well the cowboy, like the red man, you had to leave your land
You can't raise your stock and plant your crop in the gumbo and the sand
Greed disguised as progress has put us to the test
They won't be glad until we're gone from our home out in the west
It's sad to see those good old days replaced with greed and doubt
Soon we'll leave the country, the campfire has gone out
Bid 'em all adieu, you can't turn the world about
The cowboy left the country, the campfire has gone out

I'm majorin' in Electronics and Computer Technologies, which is like a Electrical engineerin' Tech, and I'm minorin' in Spanish.

But I'm 'out' for the summer. I will take a one month block class this summer to try to get a head of things as I've been part timin' for 4 years now.

thus is life, eh?

I studied Spanish for years, but I have no particular affinity for the language. Italian is much more interesting as well as very similar to Spanish, so I'll probably go with that.

well, here I am, back at the grindstone they call college. Due to a shortage of vehicles at my place I'm forced to wait for a ride until everyone is done and set to go home. So as today was the first day and there is no real work to do I'm entertainin' myself by figurin' out how to go online with the colleges library book look up system. It works. almost too simple.
