Another Week

Today I had to be an adult.  You all remember my, um, eventful move in day?  Remember how they said they would give me free rent?  And I got it in writing?  Last night after work I came home to a notice about overdue rent taped to my door.  So, of course I was pissed, because at 9 the leasing office is very much closed.  Skipped math today after my flight to go and talk to them and thankfully got it all worked out without too much trouble.  But it was weird, ya know, having to be an adult.  I mean I've been doing it for just over a month but still!  Strange to have reminders about how I'm all grown up.  Sometimes I feel like I was just barely 6 and I'm not sure what happened.
Anyway, this week in review:
Flying, always a joy, except Wednesday, when we didn't fly and instead did 3 hours straight of ground training.  Holy cow.  So much information about flying, different maneuvers, and emergency stuff.  Crazy how much I have to know.  I got to fly today, however.  But the wind was insane.  We were basically just being thrown around while trying to do stuff on the syllabus, like maneuvers and such.  It was hard trying to  practice stalls in turbulence.  After a while I did start to feel kind of queasy, as did my instructor.  Eventually we headed back to Provo and I did a lot of talking on the radio.  Still scary and intimidating, but I'm getting lots better.
Nothing really eventful this week except flying.  Work was work, school was school.  I finally watched the Amazing Spiderman for the first time last night.  That was cool.  Thank you free Redbox code for that experience.
Alright guys, I forgot that I actually need to eat, so I'll blog later.  Gotta get me some lunch!
