Berck hasn’t been very talkative, but this seems like the most efficient way of letting everyone know things.

He’s got his favorite instructor, so not much to complain about there.

His roommate moved out, so he has a whole house to himself. Unfortunately, he has to share it with a myriad of dead crickets on the floors and the occasional gigantic roach that shows up.

His bed has wheels on it that makes it move across the floor whenever he turns over.

He talked the driver who picked him up from the airport late Sunday night to stop by Wal-Mart on the way home. His house has a fridge and a kitchen. He eats sandwiches and drinks Newcastle and Bass.

His house is about a mile and a half from the classrooms. He walks it instead of waiting for a shuttle. It takes him about half an hour.

His class is between 10 am and 7 pm.

There are 8 people in his class, including three females.

His instructor gave them Dash 8 patches for MS Flight Simulator, so Berck can practice at home. He spent all of Saturday morning doing so. He hadn’t gotten to the electrical system yet, so it took him a while to figure out how to turn it on.
