10th Entry


Ok, well, this is a new one. I'm doing well ...except that i had to get a new laptop. Thanks pops. here is my pic and then a funny video that shows how bored I was at the moment. I still like Cindy and I hope to go on some dates with her in the future, so we'll see how it goes, but for now its gonna go good and slow(my prediction). that's about it, so have a good time with all of this.
This picture looks like I'm looking down on something.....that's cuz I was looking at the keyboard.

8th Entry

I know that I just wrote about my schedule and things, but I just want to write about how difficult it is for me to focus on my studies sometimes. It is really difficult for me to sit down and try and master excel by myself or study for exams sometimes, because I find that those studies don't bring me happiness. I'm happy when I study my Religion courses, and I'm happy when I study my Russian/ Business courses, but excel is my tough area this semester and it doesn't help that I would rather be making food for myself and others, being anywhere with Cindy, or talking with friends. That's all I wanted to complain about. On the positive side, as long as Cindy still likes me, I'm in good shape with social distractions, because I'm already decided when it comes to those times. Oh, a good thing to make for conference or a big breakfast is to get some bacon and line the bottom of a cupcake pan with it and then crack an egg in it. cook that on a mediumish temperature until the bacon is cooked and viola! one good egg/bacon/cupcake-size food. I like it. I still need to know the temperature to bake at, but that shouldn't be a problem. I loved conference today. I thought that it was excellent and inspiring. I really like Elder Holland's talk and Pres. Eyring's and the Prophet's. They were good for me. Have a great day family and friends:)

7th Entry

Well, I'm doing well. I'm up a little later than I would like to be, but I'm in bed at least writing about my life so that everyone can know anything new in my life. As far as school goes, I'm doing alright. I like my Russian Lit class, but I am required to read around 50 pgs a day and that can kill the time that I would like to spend anywhere with Cindy. I'm taking Excel on the computer and it is tough because it can do everything and there aren't any classes. I hope that I'll be able to pull that one off. My Accounting class is going ok. I took a test that I wanted to study for, but couldn't find the time to, so I got an 82 on the exam. That's ok. My LDS Marriage and Family class is good and I'm starting to get the hang of things in that class, so we'll see how I do on the first exam that is going to be this coming week. The beginner's weight training class is a beast, but I'm getting stronger. I don't know if I'll ever be able to reach the goal of 20 pull-ups and some of the bench pressing that I have to do, but we'll see. It is good to work out though, or else I would have less energy and I focus than I have right now. My Doctrine and Covenants Professor is the best Religion Professor that I have had so far. He is amazing and I can't fall asleep in his class because he involves the class so well. I have a test in that class in a week or so too, so we'll see. That is my life right now and what I'm trying to balance. I think that I'm going to work on Google Calendar tomorrow and lay out all of my test and due date etc so that I can be effective and do well in my classes this semester. I'm really happy to be dating Cindy. She just helps me have purpose in my studies and she's amazing, so that rocks my socks. Well, enough of that. I hope that you enjoyed reading about my semester and the fun classes that I get to work on all week long without much off time. Love to ya, Eric
