Things Are Looking Good and It’s Time for a Change
by Daniel Cole on Aug.25, 2008, under Personal, Texas A&M University
Today was the first day of class of my senior year at Texas A&M University. It was a great day! My classes are going to be difficult, but my schedule is very satisfactory (except for lunch, I have to squeeze it in to the time I drive from work to school). I’m taking Nutrition, Post-Civil War U.S. History, Web-Enabled Applications, MIS, and ERP (Enterprise Resouce Planning).
I work for 4 hours in the mornings and have class from 12:45PM to 5:25PM in the evenings on Monday through Thursday. Fridays are my flex-days. I am scheduled to work only the four hours on Fridays as well, but I don’t have any classes on Friday. I can use the afternoons to do homework or projects, or I can just stay at work and get more hours. It is up to me.
After a few chores and homework today, I am going to change my blog’s theme, I have been wanting to for quite a while and now I have a reason. I have a Smugmug account and I can’t add the photos link to my current pages list. So it time for a change. You will soon see.
April, The Worst/Best/Busiest Month of the Year
by Daniel Cole on Apr.05, 2008, under Personal
This month is the worst and best month of the year. It has always been the busiest month for me and my family. I finalized my new lease for June 2008 through June 2009. I have received information that I might be getting $300 from the IRS for the Economic Stimulus Package. The tests and projects are revving up. I had one test yesterday. I have two tests on Wednesday (4/9/2008) and more coming later this month. My immediate family has 3 birthdays this month, including my own.
Money is tight at the moment, so I’m watching every purchase with great vigilance. I have to get groceries soon, but I don’t get paid until 4/16. I’ve been needing to get an oil change, so I finally did today. My wallet hurts a little; $55. This afternoon and evening I decided to procrastinate as much as possible, so I didn’t read the 200+ pages for my 2 exams on Wednesday. I researched my schedule for the fall and I’ll talk to my adviser to determine if what I choose is appropriate. When I have a nailed down schedule I’ll post something about it. I’ve also been cleaning: the bathtub, vacuuming my room, sweeping the kitchen and entry, and washing my dishes. After that I listened to and watched a few podcasts. Security Now! 138 I finished my day just with Finance homework and blogging. I hope your month is better than mine. (My month isn’t really that bad, but I like to over-exaggerate.)
