my $250+ equipment list and what I've been doing

So as many of you know I work know at a local pizza chain, about 8hours a week and get about 200$ a month. It's going great and it's a lot of fun. With my new found souce of income I plan on getting some...I mean a lot of equipment. I save about half my money for college in case for some reason I don't get accepted in the USAFA though I think I should. Here's the list, it's rather lenghty:
1xreef epoxy
1xcoralife aqualight T-5 twin tube
1xglass canopy for 29gallon tank
1xaqualight 3/4 watt lunar blue l.e.d. light
1xhagen co2 system
2xvisi-therm stealth 25w
2xebo-jager 75w
1xcoralife power center
1x25ft. python system

I asked a lfs by me and there having a 25% off everything sale in March so I will get all that I can there and the rest online.

On the not fish side the reason I haven't been on much is I work 8hrs. a week now and have track practice for two hours after school each day along with starting a new semester at school. Everything is slowing down now and I hope to be on more. I just got GHIII for wii though am still working on getting internet to play with some fishlore members.

In track I ran a 4:34 mile, ranked fourth in indoor track for Ohio, 10th in the nation for sophmores and 150th overall

So that's basically what I've been up to, I'm gona finish up my nano saltwater article this month unless it turns to be too long and hope to be online a bit more.

Good to see a post from you, and OMG your track time is GREAT! Running like that and you shouldn't have any problems getting scholarships for school. Keep it up, and stay focused.

Check out this link to Alaska's new indoor track! Biggest in the USA! It is a forum, but if you go down several posts to JRM's post there are links to several sites that have pictures and much more.

My sister-in-law works at the church which built this facility! It is a huge outreach to the community, and is now going to be a BIG
part of sports at UAA.

It is fun to have a little $$$ to plan on tank supplies. See you round the forum....

Wow sustina flower, that is a really nice faculty. That's a dome too, those are always cool. We have a very nice indoor track by us too, though not as nice as that. I sure wish we had a indoor 400m track by us and a place as nice as that. http://www.gozips.com/ViewArticle.db...&ATCLID=319538 That's what ours looks like. That's nice yours is outreaching to the community, that is always good.

Yea I like having some extra money, When I go and get my equipment next month I'll take some pictures.

It is a college track, we go their for meets and it is were our state has the indoor state track meet. I could probably get a scholarship but idealy I'd like to go to the usafa, though I'll apply to the navy and a few other colleges also. I'm hoping to break 4:20 this year in the mile and hoping to break 10:00 minutes in the two mile this weekend.

well I certainly know how you feel there, it's hard splitting money between two hobbies.
