Spring Break!!

Hey Gang..

Well, after missing a full week in San Diego, I spent last week making up school work and a test; then spent the entire weekend studying the collective sum of the Chemistry lessons and 4 chapters in Electronics. I am not sure if it paid off yet in Chemistry, but I did get a C in ECE 201; Not too happy about it, but I did pass. Next quarter in a few weeks will be a tough one - Linear Algebra and ECEC 302: HDVL. Anyone know what that is besides difficult?

Anyways, Nicole and I got a good chunk of change from the taxman, and after all is said and done, we are looking at a small house project; either the bathroom or the dining room. Possibly a few other things, but not 100% sure yet. Either way, there are a lot of house projects that I have been wanting to do. I just installed the motion light outside, and patched the wall from the closet. I will try and finish the job this weekend with a paint job and trash the old doors. Also, I wanted to fix the under the side issue.

My spring break release will be playing some paintball next weekend - rain or shine, do or die. So far, Wayne and his kids say they want to go, but if not, then I am still going to head out there. It wont be the last time this summer, so I hope to get some of the other crew out there too soon :D This weekend is the 7-man tourney in Huntington Beach - as seen HERE.

I found these good tips on paintball; check em out HERE

EA has announced the next game to come: Battlefield 2142. IT LOOKS AWESOME!! I think my days of the Massive Online RPG are coming to an end, as I am finding that I don't have enough time to play them with everyone and still get shit done in my life and in Nicoles life. My buddy Wayne closed his account in WoW and I will probably do the same soon. I prefer the get-in, play, and get out games like the battlefield 2 and things like ROME: Total war and whatnot.

Otherwise, Look for a poker night very soon and also a game night as well, probably in the same weekend. I cant wait to play some cards :D

Back from another San Diego trip

Hey anyone..

Well, After the glory of winning a Superbowl, things got back to normal - hard school work and a full schedule...

This last week, I made another trip to San Diego. Flying into and out of Ontario Airport is the way to go; no lines, fast take offs and landings, quick on the luggage and overall a small quiet airport. I will never fly anywhere else in Socal ever again, unless its necessarry. Its so nice that there were more security folks than passengers at the security check (3 passengers..total)

Susan and Eric are doing quiet well; the house is very nice and after alot of work, Eric was ready to go nuts - so we went the play Painball at HSP (Hollywood Sports Park). They charge $25 for the day, $10 for air and $50 a case of paint = expensive day. I did bring my own marker and loved it. We went with Ryan and Bobby and had a blast on Saturday. WE almost won most of the rounds, and all but on was a draw; for whatever reason, they time the matches to make you get to make way for others to play.. oh well.

Also, We did the Advanced Civ thing the following Saturday evening at Carlos Ys house. we played till midnight and came to the conclusion that we need a timer on trades - they take forever. Otherwise, Tom won his first and me a close second by 35 pts. WE had identical cards except for one, and that was the differance. I also got a new game called Vegas Showdown, and it is fun. You build a casino and try and outbid players on certain rooms. Eric is now the Slot king, or as we said the Slut king.. and Susan was the restaurant queen. I cant wait to play with the crew out here :).

WOW - for me is slowly going away; thats fine, as there is alot that I need to be concentraiting on. My guy STILL needs the last demon and also a better chest piece, and since they dont run MC unless there is nothing else going on, its hard for me to get in there and get the missing piece. WE talked about leaving in the early summer, so that would be it for us, possibly. Not too sure yet.

HOUSE - needs ALOT of work, and I cant wait. I want to do alot with it and have some plans in the works. I see us redoing the computer room, and the downstairs soon. Nicole wants to fix up the bathroom, and that is another space we need to get fixed too.

SCHOOl - This is short cause I have big finals next week; Between missing a week of class for the work trip, I have a test tomorrow and finals next week in Chem and Electronics. OVerall a full plate; It looks like next quarter is going to be Linear Algebra and my first ECEC 302 class.

Oh well- gotta get back to it.

More to follow soon..
