Fall Break

Well, sorry for being about the worst blogger ever. My fall semester for my sophomore year has been a little bit more challenging than expected. I'm taking powerplant electrical with a lab, intro to reciprocating engines with a lab, aerodynamics, Instrument ground school with a lab, and for flight - I am flying the citabria for my tailwheel endorsement and have flown four solo cross countries in the skyhawk across TX and LA. This year, I am blessed to have a car - yeah! Its been really nice going to the airport when I need to, as well as off campus for movies, coffee, wal-mart, church, or studying. I've been working usually mon, wed, and friday mornings in the Aeronautical Science I building with the secretary. All the faculty are especially nice - so besides being early in the morning, I don't dread going to work. In fact, I get free coffee :o) Midterms are finally over!!! Its been a struggle, but I am passing all of my classes. We have today and tuesday off for fall break! Friday, I went to a third day/david crowder band concert in tyler - the two pictures are of me and my friend katie at the concert and of third day. The place was packed and the base made your insides vibrate - really weird feeling. It was nice to get away - even though I kept seeing letu people. Saturday, I had a really good flight block in the citabria and then drove up to Forney, TX to see my great aunt Rhoda. I had a nice visit with her, plus some yummy food :o) Now, I am hanging out at my friend - katie's home. I only have about 7 more weeks of the semester!! Sorry, for the delayed update and poor blogging. I'm looking forward to coming home to oregon and spending christmas in idaho with family.
