A lot of things are happening for me right now and in the near future.  Last Saturday, I moved into my new apartment.  I’m really excited about it.  I had to rearrange my room quite a bit to make everything fit, but I’m happy with how things are.

On Monday, my family and I are flying to Seattle until the 17th of June.  I will definitely be posting stuff from Washington.  On July 7th, school will be starting at Blinn.  I’m taking Freshman Composition and Speech; two classes that I’ve just been putting off.  Well, I have to get up early tomorrow, so goodnight!

Summary: I’m really busy, working 7:30 am to 5 pm. I don’t have anything exciting to mention. I will be moving on Saturday. I will be in Seattle from June 9th to June 17th. I’m sorry I haven’t had time to watch or post on viddler.com.

New plants, wanted vegetable garden, and Blinn registration.

Exciting day: car wrecks, photo albums, and Microsoft Office galore!

A summary of this weekend.

Today didn’t start out so nice, but quickly improved!  I woke up early (negative) and went to class.  The class turned out to be cancel and replaced with an online lecture, but the professor felt bad because a couple of us came, so she gave the lecture in person anyway (positive).  After that class, I walked to my bank to find out if I was going to need to apply for another debit card when my current one expires; I don’t, another is sent in the mail to me before the old one dies (positive).  I had an hour and a half until my next class, so I decided to walk from my bank to Wehner, probably about a mile, along University Dr. (positive).   It was very interesting, I don’t know why, but I felt a sense of adventure and exploration.  When I arrive at Wehner I still had an hour left, so I got a Blue Bell ice cream sandwich, the cookies ‘n cream kind, and a Starbucks iced coffee (positive).  The total was less than $5 (positive).  Next, I had class with a few friends (positive).  After that class, I had Marketing class.  At first I thought it was going to be as boring as it normally is, but today we discussed some of the marketing campaigns Texas A&M University is using and came up with ways to improve or add to them (big positive).  It was a lot of fun in my discussion session today.

At work, I was able to complete or, at least, send several ISER’s on their way (positive).  After 5 PM, I worked on a project to upgrade all of the PC’s in one department to Office 2003.  This involved uninstalling Office 2000, installing Office 2003, and running an audit program that scans the PC for software.  All of the PC’s except one were updated and most PC’s had successful audits (moderate positive).  I’ve almost completed that project task (positive, I really like completing things, it gives me a sense of accomplishment).  So, I was able to leave work at 8:30 PM (moderate negative, it could have been later), totaling a little more than 22 hours for this week (positive).

I made it home in time for Battlestar Galactica and I will watch Battle 360° when it repeats at 1 AM (positive).  When I checked my email, I discovered that I might be getting a second job as a web designer from my former boss (major positive)!  This has really got me excited!

Later this evening, I’m going to take a hot shower (positive) and go to sleep for close to 11 hours (big positive).  I hope everyone had and will have an excellent day!

It always seems to go that when I want to write, I never have anything to write about. Well, I think I’m getting old, because I wanted to get socks and white t-shirts for Christmas and I was excited when I got them. Most of my gifts this year were practical or something that I needed. While school is out, I’ve been working about 9 hours (including an hour lunch) each weekday. I’ve actually quite liked it. I really enjoy doing internal tech support, it’s quite challenging. I am always learning something new.

I’m pretty used to living on my own now. Going home for 4 days over Christmas was odd. It didn’t feel exactly right. One thing I’m not adjusted to yet is cooking everything for myself. Most of the stuff I make is made for more than one person. Also, coming up with the time to actually cook the food and clean the dishes afterward can be a hassle since I work late. I’m trying to expand my menu of meals, but going to the grocery store enough to keep the 4th of the refrigerator stocked isn’t all that much fun. It’d be better if I could buy food in bulk, but I just don’t have the space for it. It’ll be just another year or so and I’ll be able to move out on my own (when I’m working full time).
