Get this, I actually managed to pull a C in my probability and statistics course! I was shocked to find I don’t have to repeat that damn course. There is only one more class I have not gotten the grades for, but based on my prior grades, I should pass that class fine. This summer I will be taking calc 3….. again. This time I will pass it. I want to get all this stuff done with. If I pass the physics and the calc this summer, I will have gotten all my math and physics classes out of the way. That is huge for an engineering degree.
In other news, this is the first day I have not been driving to albuquerque. Since monday tim and I have been working out in rio rancho on finding lines using the vacuum trucks. They were long, hard days but we made around $7000 or so for the business. It is good to see that your hard work can actually help the business afford you.

So I have been sweating over my status in school this semester, I have had a tough time focusing in school and it has shown in my grades. I just got word that I managed to pass one of my more on the rocks classes. I was so happy, I actually jumped for joy! Here’s to three more successes.

So I have finally come into the modern world and descided to upgrade the look and feel of my site. Hopefully this will also increase the frequency with which I update it (cross your fingers). For all the newcomers (all 2 of you), I am an engineering student in New Mexico. I like computers and motorcycles. I am a php programmer and a member of the NMTA and work for Santa Fe Skies RV Park.

Yesterday was round 4 in the New Mexico Trials Assn.Competition. Dad, Tim, Willie, April, Thomas and Aurora rode in the morning. I spent that time making sure no one got hurt and coaching them through tough spots as I got a chance. They all had a good time and no one got badly hurt, just the usual bruises and scrapes.
The morning ended with dad in 4th in Intermediate, tim somewhere around 6th in Amatuer beating Willie by a couple of points putting him in 7th, Thomas 3rd in novice, April got 6th in the same class and Aurora did not finish, allowing april to finish her run rather than both of them not having enough time.
After lunch, the upper class riders went out, I rode Sportsman (the lowest of the upper class). The time was from 1:30 to 5:30, I was one of the first riders to turn in my ticket at 4:55 finishing with a score of 40 points (lower is better). At 5:30 most if not all the upper riders had come in from the 9 sections, most worn, dusty and sweating from the sunny 80+ degree weather out on the rocky mesa.
After some water and a little rest I come back to find I have won 1st place in my class, marking my first win in the class since I started back in February. It was a long and rough day, but I really had a lot of fun and I think that the rest of the crew did too.
