Rex Flex

Well, today while I was on my lunch break I gave the person collecting all my papers at Northface University a call to see if he had received my college transcript. He said that they had and the board was reviewing my application as we were speaking. Later that day while I was at work, I get the call. “Pack your bags, you’re commin’ to Utah!” I was so excited, but I was at work, so I couldn’t show too much emotion and excitement because the boss lady might have gotten upset. Wednesday I’m being put in front of a scholarship board so they can decide what type of discount, if any, I may receive. The school gives one 100% scholarship, one 75% scholarship, one 50% scholarship, and several 25% scholarships. Hopefully I can get something, because tuition to this school isn’t cheap. Based on the huge success of my previous charitable funds, I may decide to create yet another. Yes that’s right, Tuition Funds For Rex (TFFR) has been founded. Please email me if you are interested in donating anything. I would be applying for tons of scholarships, except I’m a middle class, white, American male, this pretty much excludes me from any scholarship I could have hoped to get. Class starts July 13th, so I don’t have a whole lot of time to really do a whole lot here.

In other news, I found someone else that believes in individualism, right here under my nose. That’s right, another Libertarian does exist! I believe this is one of the first that I’ve found living near me since I identified myself as a libertarian.

Work is coming in very steady now. Today I worked from 10:30AM to 6:00PM, which is pretty nice. Tomorrow I’m going in at 8:00AM and I’ll get out whenever, I’m not exactly sure when. Boss lady said something about us maybe working some overtime, which would be really nice, because I need to earn about $1000 in order to purchase my new computer to replace my old one. Which shouldn’t be too hard to do if the checks stay steady for the entire duration that I’m here.

Since I have to be at work at 8:00AM, I’m going to go ahead and make the “new computer” page, then goto bed. Until next time.

It seems like this weekend has been a movie marathon for me. Last night I watched Great Expectations and Kingdom of Heaven. Both movies are really good and I’d recommend them both. Today was more of a comedy movie day, I saw a double feature consisting of Meet the Parents and Meet the Fockers. If you get a chance, watch all four of those movies, they’re all really good. I’ll probably watch Great Expectations again this week before I have to return it.

A few weeks ago I got a letter in the mail from Northface Univsersity and it sounds really interesting. I filled out the form to have them contact me. When they called, we talked for awhile, then I had a phone interview scheduled with one of their admissions representatives for Math 10th, at 7PM. It really sounds like a neat school and I’m really interested in going. Monday morning I’m going to talk to my old high school counselor about it and see if she has any suggestions. Class there isn’t like a regular college where you take a class here and there. Here you go to class from 8AM to 4PM, with an hour lunch mixed in there somewhere. The problem with that is I can’t really be expected to work much (if at all), if I goto class during the day and get a lot of homework that I’m expected to do it at night. Me not working could have a pretty negative effect on me going there.

I’m planning on writing a theme/layout/template that matches the site for the photo gallery. After I do that, I’m going to write the downloads, projects, and tutorial pages, all to match the blog site. It should be a pretty cool site when I finally get it all up and running. Today while I was going through my site stats, I noticed my first referrer. I was linked on TalkLeft about the article I posted on the REAL ID. It’s something that should be strongly opposed by anyone that has any respect for a person’s freedom and privacy. I hope that everyone reading this will visit the EFF site and send a letter to their representative. It’s simple and takes less than two minutes. On that note, I’m out of here, off to bed so I can get up and talk to the counselor.
