I'm guessing you live somewhere where the same storm that hit us went. Northern Minnesota, perhaps? (I'm in Grand Forks) We got 13.8 inches in total, according to the local paper. And were in store for a high (yes, the high temperature) of -17 F on Wednesday.
I haven't written in a few days. Put simply, not a whole lot happened this weekend. It was cold. And continues to be so. The projected HIGH for tomorrow, according to the NWS is -17. Fahrenheit. Negative 17. At least the winds are supposed to be fairly light during the afternoon and evening. I get to work tomorrow evening, assuming that my car will start at those sort of temperatures... Saturday and Sunday were dull. I did homework. I bought a warm fleece for $5 on clearance at O
I'm tired so this will probably be short... Had classes today. Learned about diferential amplifers, Laplace transforms, dot products, and the cost of algorithms. Data Structures is shrinking rapidly. Whether this is from people dropping it or just not showing up, I cannot say. Had manacoti for dinner. It was pretty good. Several people from my floor are going to Jinea's hometown this weekend, so it will probably be quiet here again. My roomate said something about going back to
The website looks good. :)
Today I slept until 10, since I didn't have class until 11. It was intersting, but the professor kept going on and on and on. The details of the story were intersting, but I only care so much about kickbacks in Baltimore. I had the first electronics lab today. I don't think it will be as bad as I was afraid it would be, but we haven't really started yet. I went to Old Navy and bought stuff this evening. I got a $70 "Car Coat" for $13 on clearance. I also got a shirt that has a sticker o
Cold, cold, cold. It was COLD today! Well, I think it was probably more the wind more than the cold, but it felt cold. There are wind-chill advisories and warnings out and a few schools cancelled today. Not my University, of course, but it still was cold. Despite not having slept well at all last night, due to my roommate’s LOUD snoring, I actually managed to be attentive in class today. It might have been that I was sitting right next to a air-conditioner that wasn't really se
Today, I didn’t have any classes, since the only class I have on Tuesday was cancelled for some reason. So I got to walk halfway across campus, see a sign that said CANCELLED and walk back to my dorm. If I had know about that before hand, I wouldn’t have had to go out in this cold weather. At least it wasn’t as bad as it was this weekend. My roommate had the air let out of his tires today. He works for UND Parking Enforcement, i.e. he’s what’s called a “Parking Nazi.” I don’t lik
How did I get a former top 25 medal? I've never been anywhere near the top 25. [Message Edited]
I read this article in my universities student paper last Friday. I found it rather interesting. The paper's website is http://www.und.edu/org/ds. [Edit]: The article is not currently available. I will update the link as soon as the DS can get around to putting it into the online archive. [Edit 2]: OK, I found it again on the new website. Check the link.<!-- Ju-Anch
Well, first off I don’t know for sure if this the correct category for this article or if there’s a better one, but we shall see. I got up at about 11:30 today since there wasn’t any school due to MLK day. I went over to Wilkerson, which was the only dining center open today due to the holiday. I had pancakes and eggs for brunch. It was OK, standard Wilkerson food. I’m looking forward to Terrace being open again tomorrow once classes start up again. This afternoon, I went blowi
For Christmas, I got a set of external speakers for my computer (Cyber-Acoustics CA-3090, if you want to know). They aren’t the greatest set of speakers I’ve ever heard, but they’re a lot better than the built in speakers that are in my laptop. The thing that drives me nuts sometimes is that one of them seems to be picking up some radio station, and I can just hear it when I’m listening to my own music on my computer. Frankly, it’s getting on my nerves. I really wish that it would stop doing it,
Welcome to my first attempt at blogging. I'm not sure what will be contained in here for sure, but I think I'll start with the obvious. I'm currently an Electrical Engineering student at the University of North Dakota in Grand Forks, North Dakota, USA, Earth, Sol System, Sector 14-3. I found this website through the Galactic Civilizations website (which I must say is one of the best strategy games I've every played). The nickname: It's my broomball team nickname, a play off of my last name.
But we have post 47!
Well, on the port side, it's black with little white lights. Same on the starboard. We're either in space, or in a big black box surrounded by Christmas lights. Perhaps if Mr. Squatty reconfigures the sensors to check for light bulbs we can be more certain.
It's perfectly obvious where we are. We're in outer space... I'm not sure about the specifics though. ;)
As long as I don't beam down... or we don't get boarded... or we don't need to transport anybody who likes to hurt people... I should be fine!
I think I found an empire for me...
