i've been too busy with homework and stuff to be bored....and quite frankly I'd rather be bored.

I'll post pictures later, but I had my first experience in a jet these past two days.

Flew to FSD, picked up some passengers, then to ADS, dropped them all off, then off to SAT for maitenance and we ended up staying there.

All I can say is wow, the new CJ3 is a rocket. The owners used to have a CJ and they can't believe the performance increases with the new CJ3. It is amazing.

I've never had so much flying in and out of busy airspace and I can't wait to do it again. Definitely overwhelming at times, but flying right seat in that airplane is something I'll remember for a long time.

I actually haven't been bored - I've been too busy with Accounting 201 and Management 301 class, along with work and the 15 credits I'm taking.

I'd rather be busy than bored.

Man oh man I've been lazy lately and I cant seem to shake it. I almost call into work everyday now. Cant really blame me there since I work at 5 in the morning almost everyday.

I've also noticed Im slacking pretty bad in class too. I've skipped aviation meteorology almost everyday the last 3 weeks. Just got a C on an accounting test due to lack of studying that I had plenty of time to do. I've been skipping physics quite a bit. Thats not too bad though since Im finding it pretty easy and have an A. Didnt study for my stage 46 oral at all and dang near messed that up. About half way through it my brain finally turned on and everything started clicking. Up to that point though I was 100% sure I was gona fail it.

Maybe I need to go home for vetrens day or something. Take a little break. As lazy as I am now I dont know why I'd need one. Hopefully I shake myself out of it soon or Im gona be in big trouble. And yes, Im bored as hell. So I should be studying at least. I just need a good kick in the butt I think to get myself going again.

no #####.. would you like the JC goon squad to kick your rear into gear? hahahaha

We don't wanna hear about any lazyasses on here...if your gonna be a pilot, you better friggen learn your stuff or that future airline interview isn't going to go so smoothly!

it's all fun and games until someone looses a potential job/career...


*how's that for kicking the rear into gear? haha
