School

So today was the first day of school for probably one of my most hectic schedules. I am currently signed up for 7 classes, and that equals out to be 16 credits. One of my classes is Trig, which is a class that I am retaking. It doesn't seem that it will be all that difficult and my teacher seems like he will be a good one. I still have yet to go to two of my classes (they are tuesday and thursday classes) but I think that it is going to be pretty crazy. The one class that without a doubt will kick my butt is going to be my Physics class. It is the second semester of it, and my professor tells me that it is going to require even more work than Physics 1 took. This does not bode well for me. Adding to my dismay, my teacher is french, and has quite the accent. I am not a fan of this. The only benefit in the class is that my TA from last semester is a TA for physics 2 this semester, and he is the best TA I have ever had. He helped so much last semester! This is certainly going to be a busy 4 months, but I know that the Lord is going to help me through it. I have, at the urging of others, turned this semester over to Him. I know that I will not be able to succeed in a way that I want to unless I do this. It is hard, because I want to be in charge of something that can affect my future. Oh well, that Heavenly Father guy is pretty darn smart. I have heard that He knows what He is doing.

This week is also Rush Week for Sigma Gamma Chi and Lambda Delta Sigma. I am one of the pledge trainers, so the next couple of weeks are going to be filled with getting to know new guys that will be in Delta. I am excited for the opportunity though. I have been really lucky to be able to get to know the guys from last semester pretty well. It has been great! I think it will be another good semester for us. I like being able to have a small effect on the new guys, plus watching them make fools out of themselves is pretty fun HAHA!

I still haven't really figured out anything with the move to Alsaka, but I am thinking more and more that I should just quit the VA and move there for the summer and study to become a personal trainer and just do that after I come home. I have kinda been told that its not likely that I will have a job for me when I come home anyways, so I might as well just quit. I think the problem lies in the fact that the economy is not so good right now. Having a government job is a pretty secure job and I dont have much of a fear of being fired. They love me there, but it also takes about 3 years to fire someone after they have been there for over a year. Being a personal trainer isn't as much of a secure job. If people are being more tight with money, they probably wont be going to a personal trainer. The benefits of it though, is that it would be much more of a flexible job when it comes to school. I would be able to be paid just as much, and over time, maybe more. I think that being a personal trainer would look good on my resume when I apply to PT school because I would have a ACSM (American College of Sports Medicine) certification. This is more highly looked upon by PT schools from what I have been told.

Oh well, decisions, decisions. I guess its time for some of that prayer stuff.
