Due to the threat of snow, the school’s shut down. Gotta leave to get something to eat and work on my paper. I guess Lenox, I got nothing better to do…besides the paper, of course.

Grammys
I caught the tail end of the Grammys last night, and I kinda wish I hadn’t. I mean, partly because the fact that it only awards popular music instead of good music (and yes, I realize I’m being somewhat of a hypocritical asshole saying that both popular music isn’t good and good music can’t be popular), but mostly because when Taylor Swift won the Album Of The Year Grammy, nobody pulled a Kanye. SERIOUSLY – perfect setup. I was praying for it.
PS I’m listening to Slimm Calhoun right now, you can’t say I only like good music.

Hardly Working
I’ll just summarize the past couple days since I’ve got to be getting on to class: I’m getting in to rock climbing, and got belay certified on Monday. I entered a poker tournament that got held last night and got eighth out of 40, as high as I got when I played at Mudd. However, most importantly I managed to fall into a position working IT for the Finance Society here. I say it’s most important because I was led to believe that it would be paid, and I could really use some spending money since I haven’t heard back about a gig laying Cat5. Anyway, time to go to class.

Interesting Week
So I’ve been exploring the school since I’m going to be here for five or so more months, and I’m finding it…somewhat enjoyable. I mean, I still wish I was at Mudd, but that’s only because I am apparently a masochist. Still, I’ve managed to involve myself in various activities, mostly the rock-climbing wall. I swear, I’m gonna run two routes on it every day and by the end of the semester I’m gonna be ripped. Just you wait.
Oh, and I checked out Scratch at the cinema. I had it on my computer, but I wanted to see it on a big screen.

Teh Pig Herpes
I don’t know where I picked it up, but for the past couple day’s I’ve been dealing with a head cold that’s had me feeling like shit. Especially this irritated throat. I doubt it’s Swine Flu, but it’s possible. Oh well, it’s totally made up for by finally getting an invite to the site I’ve been wanting to get access to. Want an invite? Move along…

School Daze, Part 2
So in order to get back into Mudd I’m taking some classes at Georgia State. Now if you know anything about Georgia State, you would know it is big. 30000 students big. And it’s sitting on what must be about half a square mile of real estate. So with that many students here over that much ground, not to mention the fact that the buildings are more than one story as well, the odds of me meeting anyone I know are pretty slim, right? I thought so – until I met someone I knew in my first class. Seriously. The odds? Mind boggling. Not to mention that I met someone from high school walking into the student center today.

Sparkfun Free Day
I had planned on doing it for about three weeks since they announced. Unfortunately, so did the rest of the internet. I admit I went in unprepared – not having the cart set up last night, not creating an account prior, thinking that not that many people would know – but I don’t think I could have been prepared for what was essentially a voluntary DDoS. I wish I could’ve picked up an Arduino and multimeter, but whattayagonnado, right? Oh well, there’s always next time.

Last Night Was Weird
Okay, so first off I had to clean out the garage to go hang out with my friend who was apparently some sort of anthropomorphic frog who couldn’t talk, and while doing so I find my actual bike in pieces. I also find what looks to be an old sit-down scooter, so I try to ride it but find I cant stop as it has no brakes and my sneakers are worn down to essentially nothing.
I guess I finished with cleaning out the garage and forgot about hanging out with my frog friend because I go to what is apparenty the backyard of my house to find my mom working on some sort of large outdoor pond. For some reason I get into the old Range Rover we have in the backyard and it’s running. My mom then gets in as well and reverses through our backyard gate and into the woods behind our house.
I wish I knew what any of this meant (except for the Range Rover, that just means TG is awesome)

There Will Be Brawl
After seeing the entire series at one time from beginning to end, all I have to say is “wow”. The fact that a group of fans could put together such an interesting storyline, while including so many popular Nintendo characters and quite a few less-known ones is a feat that should be applauded. While I do have my criticisms, usually the fact that you can see whatever human body part they tried to cover up or the fact that sometimes the make-up doesn’t go as far as it needs to, these issues are insignificant when compared to what a group of broke fans managed to do.
To all you 0 readers, I highly suggest you check out There Will Be Brawl. You should not be disappointed.

Winter Wonderland
I decided to tag along with some college acquaintances and head off to Agnes Scott College today since my school was closed due to imaginary snow. But as we get there, it starts snowing. 30 minutes pass, and everything’s covered in snow. I gotta tell ya, when I originally thought of college and a college campus, it was basically what I saw today; the whole centuries-old-buildings, everything-coated-in-snow-in-the-winter type look really shouts “academia” to me.
Anyway, despite what my acquaintances said, there weren’t that many “mug hos” at the school.
