1.365

So, I tried a photo 365 a while back, and it didn't work out so great. I just saw that a friend of mine decided to do it through her blog though, so I figure I'll give it a try. Sorry for stealing Mahaleigh!

So, I guess I'll start by talking about the past few weeks. I didn't do so hot at UTD this last semester. 2 A's, a B+, a D and an F. :/ Going to apply to quad C soon, take classes there, get the GPA up, and transfer to somewhere cheap with a poli sci degree plan. There was a time when I was good at school, but it feels like it has come and gone for now. I just hope it's part of the wave cycle and it peaks again, and soon. I want to be able to get my education and move out. Unfortunately, I do not have a job at the moment, no money in the bank, and no gas in the Jeep. Not to mention I need to get it looked at, but my folks don't know that just yet. It feels like the tranny is giving me some intermittent problems. It slips gears once or twice at the start of the day, but once the engine warms up a bit, it's fine. So for now, just crossing the fingers and praying.

On to work, or rather, my lack of it. I've been job hunting for the past week and a half now, with no results. My brother practically a job the first day he went looking: at Aeropostale for that matter. A fairly easy retail job. I'm looking for retail mainly, something I can work long and hard at but not smell of chicken and grease when I leave. I really don't want to work with food. In any case, if anyone reading this knows a place that's hiring, let me know, regardless of the type of job please!

Lets see, what else can I talk about? Well, what else, how's about politics? Haha, for those that know me, this should come as no surprise. I'll keep it brief though. Me and one guy from UTD have started a project, one that looks like a winner. Doing a lot of reading, stuff that would normally put any sane person to sleep. Pretty soon, I'll be done reading, and on to the writing that will take the rest of the summer and probably some of September. It doesn't matter if I'm at UTD or not next semester, this project could be a really good thing, so I'm doing it no matter what.

Well, just two more things, then I'll let you go. One good note and one rather funny. I did just get back together with my now former ex girlfriend Terra. Taking it slow, but I think it's the right thing for me, I hope she thinks the same for her. And, on a funny note, I jerry-rigged my car the other day. For those that don't know, I like music sometimes when I'm in the car. If Rush, Sean, Mark, or Laura ain't on, it's 89.7 Power FM. And yes, for those that are asking, that's Limbaugh, Hannity, Levin, and Ingraham. What can I say, politics is like a train wreck: it's absolutely horrible, I hate it's existence, but I just can't take my eyes away. Anywho, back to the Jeep. I jerry-rigged the dashboard. I put 5 screws into it as walls to place an iHome into when I want to listen to music. The attached antenna actually works in the car! Haha, and I have a car power inverter so that I can plug in the darn thing. Who needs a built in radio when you can use screws and a Christmas present?

Well, with that, I will leave you.

All the best,

Eric Prince
