Yeah so I'm back from Penn. If you read my last blog, you saw that I was sad over stuff. Well not anymore, so don't worry(not like any of you have any reason to be worried in the first place, but whatever).
Anyway like I said, I'm back from Penn. It took about 8 hours to get there, well we had to pick someone who was a bit out of the way. Yeah so 8 hours on a bus with my girlfriend and her family, awesome stuff. We went to a town called Beaver Creek or some backwoods town, I don't know. We went for a lifting meet, not that any of us lifted really. I don't actually know why we went down, but oh well. The meet was kinda boring, as I expected, but I only really went to be with Sarah the whole weekend. We stayed at a camp where all the adults got drunk and me and Sarah spent some time watching the stars [:D] Then we fell asleep holding each others hands(I was on the floor, her on the couch). The next day we left, another 8 hour ride. And oh what an interesting ride it was. I got a new nickname, Sissy Tits, for laughing like a girl while Sarah was tickling me. Then her sister messed it up and called me Sexy Tits [:P] We were under a blanket the whole ride so…yeah. Fun weekend indeed.<b>School</b><hr>History:I have to write a 10 page research paper on a controversial issue from the colonial days until the 1860s. I'm thinking of doing Roanoke, the colony that completely died out, at least I think that was the name of that colony. I've watched a few things on it and it seemed pretty interesting to me.Microcomputer App:The other day we learned how to resize a window AND maximize the window. I was like holy shit, this is way too much information to learn in one day. Then the internet went out so the teacher decided to blame his flash drive. I mean, it was obviously the reason for having THE ENTIRE ROOMS INTERNET SHUT OFF.Today we learned what the difference between a .jpg, .txt, and .doc was. I nearly ripped my eyes out from this amount of knowledge. I was so overwhelmed, I make a color changing website and a text based game in JS. Fuck this class.Precalc:Reviewing algebra, woo.Intro to writing:Kinda fun actually. We do things that aren't just writing, like acting out creation myths. You know, myths about how the world was created in different cultures.<b>Ogame</b><hr>Yes I still play. I<s>'ll</s> have battlecruisers <s>in 10 hours</s> and Destroyers by the end of the week.
Oh, you're a lucky one.
Today was my first true IT class… and we did 3D modelling with Google SketchUp. A cool program, actually. Not meant for serious use though, just for fun and placing your house on Google Earth.
Maybe it was Jamestown then? Only colonies I can think of right now.
In my class, we couldn't even use the computers until today because they weren't even setup.
in web mastering, we learned how to make a .htm document, and no, not an .html, 'cause you're failed if you make a .html document, it has to be .htm…
also, we learned the amazing history of HTML… and how to code the simplest of things… like, for example, after 2 weeks of being in school, we learned the <html> tag, amazing stuff >_>IT classes suck, I mean seriously, I pwn the stuff in like 30 minutes, in fact, we were supposed to do 5 websites by the end of the month and I've finished the entire fucking book… I finished 5 websites in like one day.Apparnetly here I am learning "how to use a computer" then how to search on google… then html… then turbopascal…. then again I will probably finish up to turbopascal in like a week… even thought it was supposed to be done in 3/4 a year….. are people really that computer illiterate?
Yes. It's scary isn't it? One of the teachers at my college thought that Word 2007 was hard to use.
