Wow! an update!
Hello hello! Bet you're wondering "why hasn't that larri fellow updated his journal yet?" Well here it is, the last month in a nutshell:
I'm back here at Appalachian State University and guess what? Its my last full semester! I only have 2 classes left after this. This semester is full with several classes. First: Old Testiment Lit. So far so good, I haven't had a test yet but there should be one soon. Second: Real Estate. I got an 95.3 on the 1st exam and there is a paper due this friday. Third: Entrepreneuership. This class is a participation class so I'm doing well for that part. Also, the object of the class is to create a business plan for a future business. I chose to create a company called CRAZY SQUIRRELS. I'll update you as this progresses. Fourth: Accounting- Audit. This course is by far my toughest class this semester. I know the material for the most part but the test is extremely hard using CPA questions. I will have to study more in dept next time- I got a 66 on the test which is far lower than I expected. Atleast the homework grade is helping me out though: I have 7 full credit (100) homeworks so far (all that have been assigned). Last: Marketing. I got an 88 on the exam and we are doing a project that is creating a Marketing plan for a business, yep you guessed it, Im doing the crazy squirrels again. This is good because I can intermingle the two subjects together and relate them.
I went to the Gulf Coast Get-A-Way on the weekend of Jan 11thish. It was warm, sunny and great! Good worship, Good speaker, and good fellowship. I'm glad I went. Unfortunately Rachel's voice was out of comission that weekend so she couldn't sing or speak (normally anyway). We had a good last night discussion/Devo. The ride was long and I actually drove for about an hour and a half.
My car is doing good. It doesn't like the cold as much; I can tell it loses a little power when its cold out. I put some anti-fog on the interior windshield and that seemed to work pretty well. I also got the TV working for the inside. The Nintendo is coming along: I fixed it so it works perfectly but I need some kind of 12v to 9v converter for the car to get it working in there. I am also installing some speakers in the Back doors which will be the Nintendo speakers. I got pulled over by the police one night. He was pulling me over to see if I had been drinking (he asked) but used my broken tail light as and excuse. After seeing that I was not impaired he promptly handed back my licence and regist. and just told me to get my light fixed. And yes, my front left window moter is still broken.
So I have to take 2 more classes after this as I said above. I have several options: 1) take it during the 2nd summer session (the only time one of these classes is offered). I would miss camp if I did this but would have all my schooling done by the end of the summer. or 2)Take the classes next semester and live in Boone. I am leaning towards the first option. I have lived up here in Boone for the past 5 years and am pretty tired of it. plus, I miss my family, friends and church back home. I love the people up here (especially my GF) but I think I want to go home. I know that If I take the classes in Fall that I would be closer to Rachel but I would also have to pay rent and be obligated to do so until next summer. I also would have to find a job in boone rather than at home. Any advice?
Other Notible things: I have an AirSoft gun which is a lot of fun. Dan and I have gone out in the woods to play several times. I'm pretty tight on money right now. I owe my Dad a good amount. I owe the school some money. I dont really have a food budget. And I just can't buy/do the things I want. Its definately time to get a job. I have the need. I'm selling a bunch of books on ebay. look for my name: funnylarri. They should be up in a week or so. Need any guppies? I got lots! Have some, no really, take some please (they're really cheap...).
Rachel and I have been talking about marriage in case you haven't heard. First off, no we probably wont be engaged anytime soon (at my discresion of course). Also, we won't get married until after Rachel Graduates. Thats a year and a half from now and a lot can happen. So, please stop spreading the rumors and stop being so giddy about the subject. I love her and we'll leave it at that.
Overall I'm doing okay. I could use a long break but thats ok. I'll survive this semester and hopefully pull up that Audit grade... Have a good one, oh and good job if you actually read all of this. PEACE OUT!

ps: the squirrels do see you and monitor you. The find it especially interesting to observe you while you sleep...
