ya i stayed in the dorms. i rather get my work and studying done and wake up at 4am(not pass out!) and hunt or fish...so i opted for a single dorm room. figured i can get my work done easy..goto bed when i want and get up for class or to hunt. i cant keep weapons in here....but the campus police holds my bow and guns for me locked up nice and safe..they do it for everyone..but im about the only one they see regularly. they know me by sight and know what case is mine. when i have more then 1 they have to ask! lol...my buddy has a house with a yard and a open field behind it. i could shoot there if i wanted..but ill be home thursday nights-monday afternoons....working fri-sun. partying is all good and fun...but i pay my own way...pay my own bills...and will pay back college as well...i see to many people failing and falling on their faces with noone to blame besides the bottle. i have a diffrent thinking. im here to get a degree...i still have fun....i got friends here..ill go have a good time with them once in a while but i wont let myself get caught up in that life style. i might seem like a loner and a loser because i rather live alone and go home every weekend...but i try to make it easy to get good grades and do what i gota do.

ill have my bow back in my hands thursday!....that is if dad doesnt jack it up! today i was packing while he was leaving for work..he said "leave your bow in your bedroom." i was like ok dad..its not hunting season yet im not taking it with me till then. hes like ok making sure..im gunna start practicing while your gone. i was shocked. he used to be a great archer and is a great hunter. he got out of archer about..12-15yrs ago. i want him to get back into it..he says he might. but the last month he never said he wanted to shoot or watch me shoot or anything. he dont know anything about using a release...how to nock an arrow with a shoot through rest etc....im just hoping he doesnt!! i will gladly teach him and let him....but i know if he picks it up and trys to shoot it with fingers like hes used to something badddddd will happen lol. we will see. he has an old Bear Bruin bow in the shed. when i upgrade my sights and rest and such im going to put it all on that bow. if he wont use that bow ill have a back up..all that bow needs is a string and itll be good to go....
