I got so busy I forgot about the blog all together. Things have been a bit crazy. People who live with me just have another child. I had to do some baby sitting. This has lead me to fall behind in some classes, but nothing I am sure I can't handle. Other schooling front have gotten most of my books and stuff and am on my way to catching up with that.
This all said I am feeling pretty good. So Smile cause this cat is just too damn cute.

The Woes of College
As a class project I am required to create a Blog. Now I already have 2 blogs, but honestly they are too distant from the topics for this blog.
So I am going to Lone Star College to get a Cert. in Computer Programming. Many problems are coming up now. Mentally I am having problems staying focused. Much like anything in my life it is really hard to stay on track and just do that task. I like to bounce around do multiple things. Play a game, watch a video, theorycraft a problem, and chew bubblegum at the same time, but the problem I have is I have no deadlines for most of things in life. I put a youtube video up when I want to. Now I have a time period I want to have them out on, but I am not going to fail life if I turn it in late. The stress I am getting is just overwhelming.
Another problem I am having is I have no money for books. I have to wait another 3 days before my college is paid for and then hope that my aid gives me the money to buy my books. This is 3 weeks after college has started, I am so far behind in some classes. I found out there is suppose to be a way to get books on loan, but this was just a few days ago and I can't get to the school to actually try to do this. So, I am facing possibly failing out already for multiple reasons.
I am not completly out though. My teachers seem to be really good people. While I don't know most of them due to classes being online from emails and posts and what not they all seem like good people and while I don't expect pitty or a passing grade because I am less fortunate, I atleast have the hope that I am not just some washed up guy who have no chance.
So, I am just going to turn on some Music try to be happy and do the work I can and see if I can make it the first semester.
