I’m trying to sign up for some more college classes for the fall semester. I need to be at least full time and I’m having trouble finding the classes I want. See, the problem is that I’m not going to college for the degree, but the information. I only want to take classes that interest me and that will benefit me.

I took some television classes last fall, and a few business classes in spring that I had to withdraw from due to medical stuff that happened. I like TV and video stuff, as well as business stuff. I’m just having a hard time finding classes that I actually want to take.

I have 7 credits now with an Accounting and English class, which means I need 5 more credits to be full time. Can anybody suggest some other classes to take? I’ll be at PPCC this semester.

So I had that scope done today. I don’t remember anything from when it was happening. All I have heard so far is that I am supposed to give up pizza. Yeah right, like that’s going to happen. I already had to give up mexican and other spicy foods. You can’t take my pizza way!

At least I’m going to use this time I have taken off work to do something productive. I’ve got the whole rest of the week off and I’m planning to get a whole lot done. I’m working on a website for a friend, getting all the design changed, information up there, and making it really easy for him to make changes to the website. It’s all simple except for the backend script that I’ll be putting together (which is also pretty simple)

I’m also going to be working heavily on that youth group video we’re making. I am working on learning Lightwave and putting together an ocean and a beach to use in our green screen footage. This one’s got a deadline so I’m trying to do the most work on it.

I’m working on the website for computer repair company I’m starting. This company will be a lot more than computer repair, and the website will play a really, really huge role in making profits and everything for the company. This doesn’t have a deadline but it’s higher on my list of things to get done. We’ve got an awesome name for the company and I’ve snagged the domain name. I still need to register the trade name and decide how I’m setting up the business.

I’m also planning on doing a little work on the Broken Fork website. I’ve just kind of got it up there right now to sit there. I’d like to work on a custom design and really plan out the wording. This is kind of a lower priority than everything else, but definitely needs to get done.

I’m still a little groggy and weird from the stuff they gave me. I’m also really hungry. I’m supposed to take it easy for the next couple of days. I still haven’t eaten anything significant since Tuesday.

So I’ve still been looking around for new jobs. I got out of computer repair a year ago. I have been considering getting a job at a computer repair shop since I really am good at it. Then I got to thinking why not just have my own business? Why should I be making money for other people when I possess the skills to have my own computer repair business?

So I thought a lot last night about exactly how I would do it. Of course it would be run out of the house at first, but I am thinking I can get enough business to get a small shop together in a few months. The last shop I worked at was disorganized and nothing ever really got done. I’ve got a ton of ideas as far as managing jobs, schedules, the business, etc.

Another big thing I was thinking about is the website. I want to offer all of the products and services online. I’ve got so many big ideas for that. The biggest thing I am looking for right now is a name. I don’t want to use it under Broken Fork Productions because that’s for videos, and it’s not quite a computer name. I am trying to think of a good name for a computer repair shop that I can also get an available domain name for.

I figure this would be something to at least bring some cash in for other ideas. And since I am so good at working with, repairing, and building computers that I should really do something with those skills.

Some people may know that I’ve been working on starting a business for the past few months. I’ve always wanted to start a business, and I’ve had just about a billion ideas for businesses. I still have a million ideas for other businesses, but I have made the first steps to starting a business that I think should do pretty well. All I will mention about the type of business right now is that it deals with video production.

I’ve already submitted the fictitious name paperwork so that I can legally use the business name to do things. I’ve also got my EIN. One thing I am still looking into is a business license / sales tax license. Apparently in Woodland Park you have to purchase a sales tax license to do business whether you sell actual products or not. I think this is kind of stupid, but Woodland Park likes to be stupid about pretty much everything they do. The sales tax license is $50 per year.

I’m also working on fixing up the business website. It looks OK now, but I want a real design made for it. I am either going to do that myself or hire somebody to do it. So if you do website design, let me know and maybe we can do business together. I’m also working on finalizing what I want the logo to look like and then will be making brochures and business cards.

Overall with the actual time I’ve been able to spend on this with the crazy work I have been doing, I think I’m doing a pretty good job. One of my friends will actually be partnering for me in this business, though we won’t be forming an actual partnership because he is not 18.

I’m pretty excited about this business and I anticipate it doing very well. I’ve always been taught to do the best at what you do. Whether it’s cleaning toilets or building airplanes. You should do your best. I plan on doing that with this business, and using the profits to start additional businesses.

I’ve been very busy the past few weeks because I’ve been doing a lot of research into starting a company. It looks like I will be going all the way with this and actually starting it, and I am very excited.

I’ve been doing just loads of research as far as what is required to start a business, any competition, products to offer, gear needed, etc. This will be the first time starting a business for me and I am so excited. I’ve always thought and been told I was the sort of person that should be running a business so I am going for it. I am taking business and marketing classes right now and have torn through the textbooks trying to get all the information I can. Those classes should definitely help me out.

I am also excited that this business will be doing something I absolutely love. I never really knew what I wanted to do until about a year ago. I took a semester of Radio & Television classes and confirmed my love for it. I am not going to really go into what the business will involve right now, but expect more information in the coming months. I want to get incorporated by the end of February! I’ve got tons of information lined out and I am working on getting all the plans and everything together.

I really think this business will be a huge success. There is almost no supply for it in the area right now (and what there is really just sucks), and certainly a great demand for it with all that is being done already in it. This is the reason I’ve been so busy and haven’t posted much. I am so excited and wish I could tell more about it, but I can go no further!
