Fall Is in the Air

Hello everyone and welcome back to the Fall Semester. I hope every one's Summer Session went well and that everyone is geared up for the Fall. Even though it is the end of the Baseball season this weekend, we all start a brand new semester at Berkeley. I start the most difficult semester in my Berkeley semester as I am taking 4 classes all 4 credits. This is my time to push my steadily decreasing GPA back up to something that I feel good about. I am taking Fundamentals of IT, Principles of Marketing, Managerial Accounting and World Cultures. Again I have a Monday- Wednesday and Saturday classes. I am really looking forward to the Fundamentals of IT because it is something that i would use daily at my job. Especially since we will be preparing the new building in the next coming months and we hope to be moved in by the beginning of next year.

As we move into the next semester I will be starting that meet the faculty segment of the blog. Our first faculty member will be Professor Michael Montlack who currently teaches the Oral Communication classes at Berkeley. I have even bigger plans than school this semester as begin my quest to become a sole proprietor. I already have three customers lined up and I am sure i will be able to get many more. My service business is geared around tutoring and educational help as well as technical services. I pretty much have my Christmas list which will mainly consist of IT tools such as Crimpers, Wire cutters and spools of RJ-45 cable. I wont release the company name until it is official so stay tuned for that.

This semester i will need help from all you current Berkeley college students. I need some professors that you want me to interview in the coming months. It can be at any campus as I will more than likely call or email any professor that is outside of New York. I want a good variety of different courses and departments. This will truly be an interesting semester which will be complicated by a couple of holidays and obviously the Presidential Election. It is funny because my son talks a lot and we discuss the presidential races from time to time. He cries when I mention McCain so i guess he is a little Democrat in the making but you never know.

Now it is time for the Rebecca and Jose corner. Rebecca is getting over a cold that daddy gave her which obviously makes me feel horrible. Yet despite the cold she still is growing especially in her vocabulary. She now says hi, Jose, grandma, mama,dada,sniffles,kat,up, uh-oh and many others that she doesn't necessarily use that often. Me and my wife taught her touchdown so that every time we said it she puts her hands up in the air and then claps and says "yay". Jose is becoming more and more vocal. We can tell when he is upset and when he is happy. He is starting to develop a laugh and sounds so cute talking. That's all for now, see you Wednesday and i will let you know how the first three days of class went.
