long update(sorry)
i just started my second week at mmi, class is way fun but i think that's because of my teacher, Jim Peli, he makes it fun. our class is ahead of the other two classes that started at the same time, our first test is wednesday, we covered combustion, boyles law, pistons, springs, cams, valves, rings, too much to mention every thing else, but i think you get the jist of how much we have learned so far...
we get a bunch of little 5 minute breaks and one big 20 minute break (when the roach coach gets there) if you eat off the roach coach, the only thing i suggest that is worth a damn is the burrito. it's huge and only $2.50
the theory class is pretty big, there are about 45 people in my class(2 other girls besides me) but when i get into the clinics, every one is broken up into smaller groups and then around clinic 7 everyone is brought back into the same large group before being broken up again. the harley people start their elective and the import people go on to clinic 8 and 9. since i am taking harley and one import i get to go to clinic 8 and 9 too which i am glad about because one of those clinics is an electric clinic and i heard that people who take that class do better at electrics than the one's who just take the electric course through the harley elective.
i also got a job working part time at east colonial recycling center on the corner of old cheney and 50 across from the home depot. i worked there off and on when ever i needed extra money. i got saturdays and sundays, and on thursdays i go to the tire store they own down the street from the recycling place and help out there for a half a day. that will cover my school payments i may ask for more hours during the week the way i have been short on money here lately. i just stocked up on a shit load of ramen noodles they are so cheep, all that i got and a carton of eggs, and a bag of spicy bbq pork rinds (you may not like them, but i love pork rinds) cost me only $4.48. if there was a lord to thank, that was what i was doing at the check out.
i am still staying at brett's. maybe for another week or so. i really don't know.
I am really glad that i have the friends that i do, they have been very supportive through all of this. it feels like every other day some one else has stepped foward and offers me a place to stay if i need it.
i know i have said this before somewhere but thank you all who have been there for me.
sorry the entry is so long but i haven't updated in a while
