Update - School, Work, Social Activities

Okay, another update on the life that is mine.

I finished my school term a week or so ago.  My next term starts October 1st and I'm excited and anxious to get started.  I have purchased one book so far (grand total of $6.43 including shipping) and as soon as I can figure out how, will buy the remaining books for the term.  My goal in the coming week or two will be to find a loan that doesn't require a co-signer.  These private school loans all require a co-signer which I think is lame.  Fortunately, for the first two classes e-textbooks are available and won't cost anything, so I am focusing on those classes for now.  In fact, I have already begun studying to get prepared for the October 1st start date.

Since the term is going to be a heavy one, I have had to request a cut in my work hours in order to accommodate the study and homework schedule necessary to do well.  I'm really excited about it!  Sciences and Mathematics!  Woot!  My Science book has been a hoot to read so far.  I enjoy science a great deal.  Mathematics...it's an interesting relationship I have with it.  I get it.  I understand it.  But when it is applied in the sciences, it is so much easier, because it makes sense to me.  Mathematics just for kicks and giggles isn't as motivating, but I get it.  I know it is logical and makes sense to do, but....I just don't find it as fun as when it is mixed with Science, but that is just me.

Work...yeah, that's pretty much it.  I love being at my company, but it is slow...lets hope business picks up!

Social activities have taken a small chunk of time out of my weekly schedule.  I try to keep up with my friends as much as I can without compromising my study time.  Technically, I don't have to be studying, but I choose to stay in the habit of studying and using that alloted time to school tasks.  Last night, I had a good time at Super FHE playing old childhood games; Red Rover, Red Light Green Light, and the newest game into the mix, Lap Tag.  My knees are bruised and my wrist is sore from Red Rover, but I love it! 

I had a dinner party a few weeks ago that I still need to write a post about, it was amazing.  Decent food, and excellent company.  Plan to have another one sometime soon when the budget allows for it.  I am going to Fresno this weekend to watch my friend's band Dislodic play at The Starline.  It should be a good time.  Looking forward to seeing some good friends this weekend!  I haven't seen Sommer in years and have never met her kids!!!!  I am so excited!
