Howdy Friends and neighbors!

Don't know why I used that title but I have always liked it..lol Well Week 2 of school started today and things are going pretty well. Only got 4 assignments back so far and they have all been in political science. A, A, A+, A+ so I wish I could just be done know and have that 4.0 haha... They were just homework and weekly stuff for the online course, so no need to get excited yet. Just got back from working out at the YMCA. Nice 45 minutes split between the treadmill and the stationary bike. There was actually a woman there complaining to the staff that it was too hot and they needed to turn the AC down! Uh, hello isnt part of the point to sweat when you work out? I know my big ass sweats just walking in to the joint! I just thought it was funny someone was actually complaining about being hot when they were working out. Today was also Day 12 since I quit smoking! It has been a pain, but absolutely neccessary to get back in shape and do what I need to do. Dumbest thing I ever did was start, and did'nt start until 21. You would think if I made it through high school and beyond I would have never started, but stupidity knows no bounds I guess!

Philosphy class has been probably my most interesting class this semester. Only about 9 of us in the class, but we have some good conversations. Kind of hard to "philosiphise" at 8:00 am, but i've always been a morning person anyway! Of course the only people who seem to actually talk are me, another lady and the teacher..haha, but we have a good time. The first night of FBI citizen's academy was last Thursday and it was very informative. They fed us a nice dinner and the assistant director gave us a brief history on the FBI. We also toured the facility here in Columbia, well most of it ;)This week the First assistant to the district attorney will be speaking on the role of the US attorney and a special agent will be giving a polygraph demonstration.

Until Next Time,

Jason Owen

And It Begins...

Well after waiting for so long I am officially starting back to school this week. Hopefully 6 or 7 months from now I will finally be finishing my Associates degree in Criminal Justice. Also starting the F.B.I Citizen's Academy Thursday night. Looking forward to both of these new adventures. Will try and keep my blog updated as best as I can, but I can tell from my Political Science orientation I will be writing ALOT already..lol

Other than that not much else has been going on. Went to the Darlington Sprint Cup race last weekend and had a blast! This was about my 3rd or 4th time going and Darlington is always alot of fun!

Just wanted to drop a quick note to let everyone who cares what is going on. Feel free to email me at expressfootball@hotmail.com anytime!

Take Care,
