Well, this year's Rose Bowl was pretty much a non-event. And with a score like 38-24 over Penn State, it makes me question the entire BCS system again. A conventional playoff system should be instituted. That is the only way you can put two formidable teams, based solely on performance, rather than what a group of coaches and journalists believe, along with numbers entered in six independent computers could EVER produce! This will unfairly skew the chances for a fresh athletic department that nobody has heard before that is nailing win after win getting to a bowl game. If it's not a school like USC or Notre Dame, give me one good reason why a different school can't be at a bowl game! GET RID OF THE BCS!!! End the 'Bravo-Sierra' NOW!!!
On to flying, as I posted earlier, I passed my Private Pilot Written. I'm getting ready for the instrument class. And I'll also concentrate in getting more flight time and get at least one checkride done. As far as college goes, I'll be completing that soon. I just need time and money. And ground school right now is cheaper. But I'll be getting back to ERAU soon. I should be back by March with college. And hopefully, by summer, I'll have my private pilot ticket in my hand.
I've been getting a lot of support from our pilots at my airline. They ask how I'm doing with school, and I tell them about my test, and they tell me to keep plugging away. And I'll be doing just that. Finish everything I need, and simply build flight time whenever I can. I can't afford going to a large flying academy, like Delta Connection Academy (which I had considered going to), but flight time is flight time no matter where you get it.
To the great Sky above, and to Aviation who has shown her love to me, I'll return soon. You can mark my words! I'll return soon.
