Summer Time Fitness.... and Kind of Random Extra Stuff

I will be able to fix these when i graduate!

I started working out again since its summer time and I'm still packing my winter weight. I guess its true what they say "you loose what you don't use". I'm back to my base weight that I was lifting when i first started and I'm sore all over. Well at least i will be back training 6 days a week to jump back in shape quick.

I bought a satellite radio for work and man it is nice not having to worry about loosing my station through out my 10 hours of driving at work every day. Too bad they have to crush the trucks at the end of the testing period even though its wired up with all kinds of thermal couples and sensors its still better than my jeep....... that's .... pretty sad. But now that I'm enrolled in school i can post more on here and work out.

Bad news though is the price of school. Lets just say i could get a nice small car with the price of the whole tuition. I guess you have to look at it as i will be making more money when i graduate so i can pay it off faster? Or perhaps you end up owing so much that the payments eat all your extra earnings?? Oh well onward an upward.

Summer Time.... and The Livin' Is Easy.... Who Am i KIdding?

Wow a long break there but i had tons to do. Finishing up finals, working extra days at work, helping my parents with the company, and just the crazy complications of life. Good news is I may possibly be going to Wyotech (http://www.wyotech.com/) automotive school this fall. Its pretty amazing how every where i got some how recruiters like to attach to me and call me back i think its some kind of sign. I'm not really learning on the latest equipment at my current school and it not going in the direction i want it to. I want to do dynamometer work and or just engines in general and working on a 1986 escort engine is not it. So I have to call the recruiter in a few minutes actually to see if i can get an appointment for an interview to see if they will take me. My grades are good in the classes i took so i will just got there for the 9 months then come back and finish my degree here and my welding certification. This will be awesome because i will actually be learning about more modern types of automotive systems and chances are i can get hired right after school! My current job said they will gladly hold my job for me while I'm gone so I am thrilled about that just in case no one wants to hire me right away. I am thinking of specializing in diesel and heavy diesel systems because i believe lots of cars are going to be switching to diesel and besides that its pretty cool stuff. I love cars and want to go into high-performance but the principles of a diesel engine and a gas are similar enough.

Going shooting in the next few weeks too. That should be fun i have never shot a gun before but think i would like to make long shots with rifles vs a pistol its seem much cooler with the rifle especially bolt action ones. My one .50 cal rifle I'm going to have inspected cause i don't know much about guns and i want to make sure its safe to fire since its been sitting for forever. I will definitely be shooting that way later after I'm used to my fathers .22 first. People say I'm crazy for getting it as my first rifle but i say hey if you going to go, go big!

We have officially opened my parents place by the lake for the summer let the naps begin! Its in Jackson, MI and is one of the quietest places you can snooze. I spent this past weekend setting up their gazebo and putting in some furniture. The photo may look crappy because it taken with my camera.

So in summary looks like this summer could be interesting and holds lots of prospects. Let the cruising and napping begin.

Not Dead Yet
