week 3

Well I am into my third week of college this semester! Classes are going good.

In Studio 2 I already handed in a project. I did ok, but not the best. We had to pick a painting that was kinda geometric and build a sculpture like extruding from parts in the painting. hard to explain, but it was a little artsy for me.... the next project is to design a little shelter for on campus. Kinda like a buss stop, only just along the path or something. It has to give students a little rest area. I want to make a reallly good model this time.

Structures is a class where we are doing load on beams and calculating how much force is on the beam and stuff like that. right now its really easy physics stuff I already know so the longer it stays like that the longer I will have an A lol. I think I have a shot at doing really good in this class.

Revit is an AWESOME class! Its called computer visualization something or other but it is a class where all we do is use a computer program called Revit. It is an architecture drawing program and I love it. here is an example of what it can do.

I am also taking Western Civilization which may be really easy because of the teacher.

And lastly gym. I am in the weight training one so i just pump iron ;-)

thats all for now.... time to chill with Erinnae!

COLLEGE

WELL I made it safely here to college after picking Erinnae up from the airport (she was in Florida) and all is going well despite the Jefflessness. He is taking a 3 week medical leave to recover from the surgery and will be joining us the 7th! That's better than having to wait a whole year, which was the alternative. The 3 weeks that he will miss he will make up in the fall by room hopping and stuff. AND my friends Sarrge and Marty were able to move into Main Gate A so now we are in the same dorm! That will be nice....

And my classes are going good so far... I haven't really done much yet so I'll do an update about that later...

bye for now!

last weekkkkk

Me and Erinnae had an awesome time last week! We spent all day Thursday together just goofing off. We went to Perkins for breakfast then looked around at the Christian book store, Alpha and Omega, then we went to the mall and walked around for a while. After that we got our snow gear and went sledding at a sledding hill I know of. It was lots of fun because we basically had the hill to ourselves. Then we came back to my house and chilled for a while with my family till she had to leave at 9 to go back to Andover. On Sunday she flew out of Rochester to Florida to hang out with her grandma for a week and help her do some work around the house down there. This Sunday we pick her up from the airport and go back down to Alfred to start college on Monday! I cant wait!

Me and gabe hung out last night and today playing video games haha what else?

My friend Jeff needs lots of prayer because he had surgery on his hernia the other day and needs to recover before college. We don't know if he will be able to come back this semester because his major is carpentry....

God bless

yo

wow its been a while, sorry all! The day after Christmas we all went to my grammies house in Watertown and hung out there till last Monday. We had a lot of fun hanging out and going in the snow and such. Then on Wednesday we went to my Grandma and Grampa's place for a day to catch up with them. I got to play pool with my grampa too so that was fun. Thursday night me and Brandon went to a new years sleepover at a friends house and played video games and watched movies all night which was awesome! Saturday night I had a big sleepover here at my house in which we did the exact same thing lol. Sunday evening me, B and my friend Matt went to see the movie Avatar in 3D. It was an awesome movie and the 3Dness made it even awesomer! Monday my friend Gabe came over and after the Bible study we played games on our computers down in our basement and watched the movie G.I. Joe. And that brings me to where I am now, counting the minutes until 3:30 when Erinnae arrives!!! She is staying till tomorrow and I can't wait to see her for the first time in three weeks!

20

I am now 20 years old! Not a teenager anymore! yea its pretty cool. I'm so old.... Erinnae is going to be 21 in April, yea, she is OLD. haha but yea I'm having an awesome Christmas so far.

For my final grades, I got Bs in History, Studio, and Construction 2 and an A in Stats! Not too bad.

I came home last Wednesday. On Sunday I had my best friend Jeff over and we played Video games all day. It was nice to have him over and I'm gonna miss him over break.... then on Monday I taught the guys bible study here and after that got a pizza and went over to Gabe's house for an more video games till 6am. Then on Tuesday we picked up another pizza on the way back to my house and then I just hung out the rest of the day. On Wednesday Gabe and another friend of ours came over for a couple hours to play more video games :-) I dont usually play that much but I just got back and wanna catch up with friends. I was planning on doing all that sometime it just all happened on the same week.

Today we opened all our presents and I am very satisfied! Lots of movies and tv shows and CD's I wanted. I also got a green laser pointer that can pop a black balloon! I also got a fur hat which I like a lot. Lots of cool stuffffff

Thank you God for blessing us!!

Finished with one thing and also starting another.....

I finished my model on last Sunday the 6th in time for stress free bowling last Monday! Then I made my whole house in a program called Revit, and architecture program, and instead of drawing it I printed it out with nice designs and such around it and presented it on Thursday. Terry, my studio professor, was impressed and I will most likely get a B+ on it. My comp isn't reading my SD card right now so I will have pictures up in the next day or so.

I think I had a pretty good ending to school. I had three final exams and I know I did good on the Construction one and the Stats one, but I am not sure about History....

THEN this past Saturday and Sunday I finished my final project for Construction. We had to completely copy a bunch of blueprints of a building in Alfred for that. I got like 94% of it done so I think I am set with that as well.


In other news, God has been doing so really awesome stuff in my life! One of my best friends here at college is Erinnae Baker, and two Saturdays ago, the 5th, I asked her out! So we have been dating for a week and a half and its been awesome! God is the center of our relationship and she has the same kinda faith as me so there is no doubt in my mind that we are doing what God wants. We ate lunch with her parents on Friday and they are ok with us too. It will be hard to be away from each other over break, because she lives in Andover, but we can live on skype ;-) keep us in prayer!

p.s. she is 20 years old
