Well... this is my 200th post to my blog. Wish it felt more monumentous.
Last week was my second with only one job. Was able to keep up with my readings, but I spent a little too much time on my 360. As such, I canceled my 360 gold account. Hopefully I'll be able to work on at least one of my side projects as well as class work, even if it's nothing more than one of the side stories I'm currently working on. Getting a side program done would be very nice. I almost feel as if my coding talents are slowly deteriorating.
Anyway, I know this was a short post, but I do need to get some sleep... ~Night!

Out With the Old
Stupid January. Who would have thought you would have gone by so quickly. If feels like last week was New Years. Oh well...
So far, my desire to increase the amount I write is... intermittent. I am writing more than I was last year, but that's not saying too much. About twice a week I'll do an exercise from the writing exercise book I picked up, and maybe once a week I do some work on a sci fi story I'm writing. Outside of that, I haven't been working too much on non-work/non-school activities.
In order to help with the amount of non-school, non-work activities, and to help increase the amount of stuff I do for school, I am quitting my Orlando Job. My last day is Friday, February 11th. Currently I'm working 3 days a week there. When I did the math, I realized that I was driving more back and forth to the one here than I was to the job in my hometown. And since the job up here was all through city traffic, that means significantly more gas usage. I only wish I turned in my 2 weeks a week earlier, as I have a project due in a class at the start of next week, and I could have used the extra time this week for that project.
So far I'm staying up to date and on top of my classes. I feel like I'm slipping a little every week though, which is why I feel I need more time for courses. Still, I'm optimistic about this semester.
There were a few more things I had wanted to write, but a combination of IM chats and lolcat pictures have made me forget what it was I wanted to type, so ~Night!
