Fair Trade

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

So it’s been a while since I made a post on my blog.  Not too much has happened.  Classes started again.  This semester I have Circuits Analysis II, Digital systems design, Differential equations, and engineering ethics *coughghaycough*.  So far so good I would say.  We’ll see after the first test though.

Got a book scanner not to long ago, started scanning my books in, I’ve got a few chapters from two of my books scanned in.  it doesnt take that long, I just haven’t had too much time at home to do it.

Marti Gras is coming up here soon.  Looking forward to that, if the weather cooperates.

Meet a girl, her name if Valerie.  Super cute, pretty dorky like me, we’re getting along pretty well.  I’m not taking it too fast because she’s going to the Coast Guard around June for boot camp, then to some training thing, so she’s gonna be gone for like 6 months.  Maybe I should try speeding things up ;-). Anywho, I can’t do long distance relationships and I don’t think she can either.  So we’ll see how that goes.

Oh, the name of the post is about today.  I was try’n to get my buddy to buy me a snack.  I said taco’s.  After a bit of debate, he said he’d get me one if i ate a “fire” packet of taco bell sauce.  I did.  Thus I’m getting a free taco.  I think that’s a fair trade.

Anyways, that’s it, I’ll try to come up with more stuff to put up here from time to time.

History Lesson…

 t’s been a while since my last real post, and for good reason. This semester was a bitch, and the end of it was evidence of this. I worked my ass of all semester to get good grades, and well at least I passed all my classes. Although, I’m happy to report I aced my programming class, 99.87 to be exact. I got a 103 on the final hehe. Now if only i could have done that on my calc final. However, I did pass calc, which is more than I could say for the fall. In retrospect, I should have just talked to Dr. Neath and I probably could have gotten the C. I wish I had talked to my cousin earlier than a week or two after the semester was over. I took engineering economics over again this semester, I failed it miserably in the spring. This semester I was doing good, but I suck at tests, I can teach people how to do this shit, but when it comes to the test, I suck it up. Mostly because they were multiple choice. I’m much better at computational stuff. The “one” computational quiz we got, I aced. I digress, I got a C I passed, I suppose I should be happy. What I am happy for though is I got a B in the seconds semester of physics. That was a hard course, but for some reason I got it, I understood it. I probably would have gotten a A had I not fubard the last test. I’m an idiot and suck at tests. I always go to fast and didn’t have time to review the test. I should just be happy with my B, but damn it I want A’s.

n other news, Leslie and I broke up. Not cause we hate each other or anything bad. We just decided we were poor matches. Just different outlooks on the world and values. You know, we are actually happier and have more fun being just friends. Which is great. I wish my relationship with Jessica had gone this way, but I’m sure I had a bit to contribute to how it went down. However, she’s over reacted several times and so it takes both parties for friendship to work out.

Leslie and I already swapped Xmas presents. We’re not going to see each other on Xmas, so it just made sense. Leslie collects the vintage collection games that sell at Target. I was there one day and saw they came out with some new ones. I picked her up Risk, only because I love the game, and it was a game of luck/strategy, so I thought she might like it. She did, at first (when she was winning) however, the next round I was dominating her. And she wasn’t having fun. I did it again the third round and that was it. So she took it home and played with her parents, and she wants a rematch cause she thinks she understands how its played now. I’ll be ready. She got me a fun Mario shirt, and a sushi making kit. Haven’t made any sushi yet, but I can’t wait! =)

h, BTW, mother nature is a bitch! Had a huge party planned out for my birthday last Saturday. Had a ton of people planning on showing up, even people from back home. What does it do? Snow’s like a mother fucker all day. I got about 10 – 12 people to show up, which was enough for me to have a good time. It just pissed me off to no end.

Well I think that’s enough of an update. I’ll try to get more thoughts up here.
