What is with me and poor research

Well how do I say this? I sorta messed up planing my future out again, but but I can still do the plan just sorta have to well wait. Turns out I cant legally dispatch till I am 23 so if I get out when I am 21 I may end up waiting two years to dispatch. Thank you FAA! I have link with proof of this (http://forums.jetcareers.com/threads/interested-in-dispatch.192697/)
So good job me getting a degree I cant get a job in till basically two years after my earliest I think possible graduation date.

Cant wait for something

I cant wait to start ground school on the 14th! Yes soon I will be a pilot well first I have to pass ground school then go to actual flight school. Best part is well sorta depending on how you look at it My dad is joining me on this and a few others I know so big shout outs to them! We can do it!  So for those of you who do not know how the processes works to become a pilot You start out in ground school when you are done with it you take an oral and multiple choice test pass both with a 70 I think or higher you go get a class three medical and your student pilot licence then you start earning your stripes/ hours and when you have enough you go threw solos and check rides pass them you get your PPL Privet Pilots License (Dont quote me on this though may have it sorta backwards lol) Anyways when I get that I have a few people in mind who I truly want to take up those who know me well can guess.... Now. Now some of you may be wondering A how am I paying B why not take in collage well A its free! Yes some how it's free because I guess the CFI wants to get more people into flying and B if I pass ground school I dont have to take it as a required collage course for my degrees I want

Well tomorrow is the day of my Mid Terms

Well tomorrow 10/15/13 at 09:35 MDT I have my mid term on aviation weather. Scared I won't do great but I will try my best! I guess I am just hoping for some good luck, to be on my side or something! All I can say now is as soon as I find out my results I will let you all know. In other news I am proud of my self I got a 26/27 on my week 7 (last week 10/12/13) aviation weather quiz and did not understand 75% of the section it was on Cold fronts and cyclones which all of it was new to me (Will dive more into each section after my mid term is done and I have plenty of time to write about it!)

So what exactly am I taking

So as of now I am taking two classes a math class which we will not talk about (its not that important okay yes math is important but its basically college algebra nothing to special) and the other class is a course in aviation security. The course its self is online so makes life easy for me as I don't have set time when I need to log on or anything, in fact most of the courses I will be taking this year as I plan on taking two more in the fall two more in spring then two the summer in between when I graduate from high school and when I head down to ENMR (Eastern New Mexico Roswell). Now you must be thinking to your self why in the world are you taking so many courses now, well a little thing called the sequester is the cause, When we went down to ENMR over spring break last year, the instructor well dean of program and one of the instructors for the program said I should start now, or as soon as I can so I am in the pipe so if I did well on a little aptitude test and she gives me her recommendation to the FAA in about three years I still had a chance to be interviewed and sent to the FAA training. So that's why I am trying to do as many courses as I can now to get them done and up to KOKC sooner then later, plus as I am in High School I get the courses for free thanks to my High School picking up tab and the summer stuff that's free as our local community collage gives a summer bridge scholarship where I take two basic courses which for me would be English and writing as this is the last math I need to take yes I took one last summer as well figured if they give it to me free may as well do it right?
Now lets talk about the course its self other then the fact its 100% on line. We do two chapters a week post something we learn on the two chapters and then take a quiz on them by Saturday night. The text book is very well written except I have found one small error they had a photo of a TED A320 which they called a Boeing 757. The book has opened my eyes to many aspects of TSA, and airline/government rules which I had never heard of, granted I am an Airplane Geek and not a Security/Law freak but still figured I would know some of them nope I did not know much of the rules and such so I am enjoying the course just because its something New to me Plane Related (NPR)
