Josh’s Blog

Last night I finally got the nerve to wipe out the YSAM website. I didn’t know how long the site was going to be down, so I did it at night just in case. Drupal has a new version out (4.7.2) so I downloaded that and deleted the old website. I couldn’t quite remember how I installed drupal on the subdomain a while back so I referred to drupal’s handbook on installation. It does NOT help all that much. After searching for a while I actually found an installation manual from my host’s support site (here). It turns out that you have to import the mysql file so that it sets up the tables. After I did that install was a snap. In a week or two I will discuss in detail how to install the latest version of Drupal.

So far everything is set for Liberty except the money. I filled everything out as far as loans and scholarships go. They covered everything except $8,000 or so for the first semester. I thought cool, now I just need to get a student loan, but I needed a co-signer in order to get one.

Somehow I will have to get used to this blogging thing. In a word, I’m “unmotivated”. And this seems to be how it is throughout my life. I definitely will have to change my ways when I go to LU in the fall…or maybe LU will change my ways. In talking to PC, he has said that I will have to be more disciplined when I go to LU. I do have a mixture of fear, excitement, sadness, and anxiety (those are all that I can name off the top of my head). I will type more when I get home tonight.
