Another way of saying Thursday! Well, I did have some snazzy intro, but let's just get on with the- Say it with me!- BIG THREE!!
1) Yesterday it was raining. Bleh. And I left my umbrella in my room! In the morning, I went to a career and spoke with some people about possible internships. I looked at Shutterfly (photo company) and Ooyala (a video company), which really interested me. After the job fair, I got lunch and then went to my job training. I start this Monday, so I'll give an update with how that goes!
2) After my job training and class yesterday, I went to the art building and finished up my art project. I thought it turned out pretty well. But instead of me telling you, let me show you and you tell me what you think!
3) I got out of class early today so I was actually able to get dinner! And I'm really glad too, because we had the most amazing dessert ever! Flambe Bananas! It was a sundae with bananas, on fire! It tasted really good, I hope they make it again.
Until next time, bye now!!

Sun's Day
Hello again! It is Sunday, er... Almost over with Sunday. And you know what that means? It means blog update, with the Big Three! So let's get this wagon train a rolling!! Aaaaaaaand, go!
1) Today was a work day. Seems to be a lot of those in college. I spent the afternoon working on my interaction art class, which was pretty fun. I've gotten much better with HTML and CSS. Just a little lesson in case you wanted to know. HTML is the backbone of internet webpages. It tells what content is placed where and whatnot. And then CSS is the complement which styles the information to make it look like the interesting sites we have now. Both go hand-in-hand to make up websites. So that's it with the little lesson of the day!
2) For dinner, some friends and I went off-campus to this Vietnamese restaurant and had pho. It's a noodle dish with meat on top in this really tasty broth. Afterwards we went grocery shopping and I got a couple snacks for my dorm. Writing this makes me hungry. I'm gonna get food after this!!
3) And number 3... Hm... Besides working and getting dinner, I didn't really do too much else today. Oh, I was able to talk with Mehdi. I told you how he came back to home, and now is living in Chicago, but we haven't had a chance to catch up with each others' lives, until last night. It's good to finally talk with him again. He seems to be doing well and plans to go to the Art Institute and then possibly transfer to the School of the Arts (with a much better program).
Anyway, all for now, I'll talk to you again this Tuesday. Bye!!

Saturn's Day
I was about to forget. I was about to hold this post off until tomorrow, but do you know what stopped me? I went onto Facebook and saw one of my readers online. For one of the few times Facebook has actually been helpful. If I had been on Google+, things might have been much differently. Well, without further contemplating alternate universes, let's get onto the... TRES LARGOS!!
Uno) Yo tengo una dia fantastico... Okay, I'm going to go back to English. Today was the Treehouse Society start of the year picnic! This afternoon I went onto the quad and we ate food and played games. Our first game was called Hamburger, and you have to get into groups of two if someone calls milkshake (one person is the cup, the other acts out a straw); three if they call french fries, four for hamburger, and five for cheeseburger. If ever you're caught without a group, you're out! After that we played Ninja. Which I'm sure, er... I hope you're heard of before! I'll show you next time I come home if you don't know it. And the next game we played was Sharks and Minos/tag. After that, everyone was pretty tired, so we just sat around and talked. Overall, it was a really fun afternoon!
2) For the rest of today I worked on homework. I got all my math and ECE and most of my interaction arts done. Not overly interesting, but pretty productive.
3) And lastly, tonight I did a workout. It felt really good, but now I'm feeling pretty sore...
Anyway, until tomorrow, bye now!!

Thor's Day
Hello, dear readers. We're back, and updating on time. Whoa! Craziness, I know! You better believe it! So, with all the fun and frillies out of the way, let's get on to the... Dun da da daaa!! BIG THREE!
1) Yesterday was the Engineering Study Abroad fair. I checked it out and got some info on Japan. Still need to figure a lot of stuff out (moneys!) but it would be awesome to spend a semester or year over there.
2) Last night was also the first Treehouse Society event. It was just an informational, meet-n-greet thing, but still great to see everyone again. We have our start of the year picnic this Saturday. I'll let you know how it goes on that post!
3) And today, as you know with my Tuesday and Thursdays is my busy busy day! I had Leadership- we talked about our core values and what is important to us. Character Counts tries to push forward the leading values in people. Then in ECE 190 we talked about the instruction set architecture of the LC-3. It wasn't so bad, but things are starting to pick up in the class. After that I had Interaction arts where we went over HTML and CSS (both mark up languages used to make websites), so that was cool. And in Time Arts we started stop motion films. My partner and I are doing a 2D, construction animation. We just made all the objects and characters today and will start filming on Monday/Tuesday.
Anyway, that's the run-through my day. Now I haven't gotten dinner yet so I'm getting late night. Bye now!!

Back! Some Things Don't Change.
Well, after being home for the weekend and not updating, we're back! And some things don't change, like my idea "I'll update at the end of the day, but then miss it until the following morning!" I'll work on that and Thursday's update will be sometime in the middle so I don't end up missing it. So, now that we got that stuff out of the way, ONTO THE BIG THREE!
1) I got back Monday night around 11:30. Had a couple things to finish up on for homework, but overall wasn't so bad. I realized I work a lot better in my dorm room than I do at home. I suppose that's since at home, I want to do so much stuff, whereas here, I just have to study/work. Either way, it was great being back for the weekend and able to see some of my readers in person!
2) Yesterday (Tuesday) was my busy day. I have two 80 minute classes and two 3 hour ones. The one good, kinda bad thing is in art classes, I'm completely on top of everything for the next week and a half. We started two projects and me and my partner are already pretty much done with it. So yay to that, not yay to sitting around for a while.
3) And then last night I had a workout. Just went downstairs to lift, so it wasn't that bad. I didn't work out all weekend, so it felt good to be back.
Alright, bye and see you next Thursday, on Thursday!!

One More Day Until I Come Home For the Weekend!!
I believe the title says it all! Tomorrow I'm coming home for the weekend! And I know how most weekends come in the two-pack variety, but not this one! Three days off, three days on for awesomeness!! =D
So, don't you know, let's get a go, big three, yo!
1) Last night I worked out in the gym downstairs. And then for the rest of today my arms and legs were killing me. I originally intended to just spend half hour, but then another friend stopped by and we ended up lifting for an hour. It's a good kind of tired, but I'm still sore... And in related, tonight (Thursday night) I went for a run. It was only 5 miles or so, but the weather outside was pretty hot so it was kinda hard. I can't wait to go biking again though!
2) Today in ECE 190 we talked about memory (computer memory!) and finite state machines. I'm understanding it a lot more, and now this stuff is a lot more interesting- 11:11! By the way!- It's amazing how such complex systems are build from simple parts.
3) And tonight it was a friend's birthday. So we got him a cake and had a little celebration for him downstairs. Nice little break from the norm!
Well, good night and see you tomorrow!!
