Milo, Now a Cute Adorable Dog

An update on my brother’s and his girlfriend dog Milo. Their dog is doing fine. They eventually got him trim up and bought a few accessories for him. The last time that I saw Milo was on Tuesday. He is surely energize basically walking around the apartment. He only barks when my brother and his girlfriend are not home. They eventually videotape every moment he does around the apartment by himself. From what they observe whenever he is alone in the apartment is that he cries. He is not housebroken though but he does stay calm when they take him along with them. When I saw my brother and his girlfriend on Tuesday we took him out and he stay calm when we left him in the car. He basically just stood still when we were in the restaurant. Eventually we did monitor him every minute while we were inside. They surely gave Milo a lot of stuff. They bought him a new leach and dog collar at Pet’s Mart. His area where he suppose to sleep at is in the kitchen. They fence him inside the kitchen so that he does not roam around the apartment while they are sleeping.

First Day of Spring Semester

First day of the Spring Semester at Diablo Valley College went alright as expected. I am taking one class (Math 135-College Algebra) then I am off to San Francisco State University in August. I have been at a community college since August 1999. I went to Contra Costa College from 1999-2003 then move onto Diablo Valley since 2004. I have to admit to myself that I got a better education at DVC compare to CCC. I was able to get the help that I needed with good instructors teaching the classes that I took, good counselor, and tutoring services. I had a good English instructor that was fantastic. I had him for both English 122-Freshmen English: Composition and Reading for Spring 2006 and English 126-Critical thinking: The Shaping of Meaning in Language Fall 2006. CCC had alright instructors. There was one good math instructor that was good that I had for Math 118-Elementary Algebra in Fall 2002. Every mistake that the students caught on the board was a donut point in which he would buy the class Krispy Kreme donuts. We got the donuts once we accumulated enough points to get them. Hopefully the math class that I am taking at DVC won’t be that bad. I took this class twice (Spring 2008 and Fall 2008) and I had drop it twice due to bad instructors that I took. Hopefully this instructor that I am taking won’t be too bad. I had her for Math 120-Intermediate Algebra in Fall 2005 which I fail. I refuse to fail this class and I already trying to get ahead of the schedule by doing the homework before it is assign date on the syllabus. Hopefully I could keep up with the schedule that I have made which I schedule the time that I will be able to do the homework between work and school.

Searching For a New Job Is Slow

The job searching has been lacking. I eventually have not gone out to find places that are hiring but people that I have know have someone that they know that they can refer me to. A person at Subway knows. I got a interview with him on Tuesday at Subway in my area. I know for a fact that I won’t get the job because the job is further away from where I live. I want to get a job that involves my major (journalism). It is hard to find a job like that on Monster, HotJobs, and Careerbuilder. Most of the search results show me US Navy which I don’t want to get involve with.
