Again, it has been a while

I'm too lazy to go back and read my last post to see where I left off, so I'll just throw some stuff out.

Work:
So far it seems to be going pretty good. It has it's slow points, but overall, I seem to be doing a pretty good job this term. So far I have figured out how to save one of the assembly lines in our plant about $22,000. The goal given to me by my boss is $80,000 by the end of the term. I should be able to pull it off.

Working out:
This seems to be going really well so far. My clothes are starting to fit looser and I'm getting more energy. I've been watching what I eat really closely and have been going to the YMCA after work. I've been focusing mostly on cardio, but am also working on the abs quite a bit. I will lose the rest of my weight.

Social Life:
Seems to be going pretty good so far this term. Lee, Max, and I have been hanging out a lot with Dani and Krista. They're both a lot of fun. Things were going well with Krista and I, but I could tell and she let me know that she's just not ready for anything right now because she just broke up with a really close boyfriend of over 2 years. We still hang out pretty often, but nothing more than that. No problem though, I totally understand what she's going through. Even if nothing comes of it I won't be upset, because either way, I gained a good friend. They actually both came over and helped us out with cooking on Easter and shared Easter dinner with us. It was definitely nice to have them here. We went to go meet Dani's parents last night. Her mom cooked us some really good spaghetti. Her Dad, the girls, the guys, and I all played some pool for a while then we headed back to our apartment to hang out and check out Lee's new Hookah. It's fun, but definitely not something that we would do a lot. It's a casual thing. Tonight Max and I are headed back over to Dani's house to hang out and play some more pool then cook some smores and such. Should be a good time.

Other:
Get a MacBook Pro. They are amazing. I've had mine for a couple months now and coule not be happier with it. The money I shelled out for it was definitely worth it.

New pictures are posted...check the link on the right.

Wow, it's been a while

Well, I've been pretty busy the last few weeks of school and didn't have internet for most of the last week. I'll skip over st. patty's day, as many people already know the story. There are some pictures posted online from the parties and such...check out the link on the right.

I'll start out with finals. I had 2 on the thursday before last, one on the following friday, and the last one the next day on saturday morning. They all could've gone either way, but I'm hoping I did well. I do already have 1 of my final grades back. I got a 95 in my Applied Electrical Signals class, so I was happy about that.

This last week consisted of driving and being lazy. Monday and part of Tuesday I spent hanging out at the fraternity house with the few guys that were still around. Nothing exciting, just relaxing and having fun. Tuesday afternoon Lee and I headed to Michigan State University to hang out. Met up with some friends there and just sat around, talked, and watched movies. Again, a good, relaxing time. Wednesday afternoon we headed to Grand Rapids to stay with Lee's grandma for the night. She makes excellent food. Thursday morning we got up early and headed out to Iowa State Univ. in Ames. The drive was about 7 hours or so. It was beautiful weather until we hit Iowa. From then until now, it has been overcast and really rainy. We got to ISU and met up with the guys that interned with us at Polaris the last two terms. Went out to dinner and partied a bit at his place out there for the night. Friday morning we got up decently early and cruised into Okoboji, which is about a 3.5 hour drive. Since then, we've just been hanging out here at the apartment and getting stuff set up. I'll have pictures up of the apartment soon.

As for everything else, things seem to be going alright. Not really looking forward to getting up ungodly early tomorrow morning for work, but it's worth the money. I am taking a prob and stats class online over the work term here to get that out of the way. That should be pretty easy.

I'll try to update as often as I was during the school term...only problem is that there's not quite as much stuff going on over work term.
