Gettin' Big

Went to the gym today. Ran/walked 2.25 miles and biked 2.5 miles. Took me 50mins to complete. Just started working out and hoping to make big improvements. Probably only going to work out twice a week but I should be getting more exercise if I start playing hockey and being outside more. So far I failed on all the jewelry I've been working on. So far I've put about 30 bucks into all the stuff. Today I should be able to make the bracelet I've been working on. Might post a picture or something. Gonna go play frisbee tonight. Wooooooooo!

Summer School

First day of summer school was today. I am taking Physics 2 over again at Pitt Greensburg. Hopefully, after taking the class three times I will be able to get an A. So far the class seems pretty easy. It meets twice a week for two hours. I have a lot of time now and am looking for something interesting and productive to do with my time. I've looked into make jewelry and exercising more. Today was fun though, after I got back from class at noon I went over Evan's house and chilled with him and Derek. Then we went to the mall and shopped and I bought an aeropastle shirt. It was a pretty chill day. Then I went home for a little and hung out Dan. Chris, Bree and Alicia. We watched a Twilight parody. It was also chill. Summer is going good so far :)

Mmmm... Summer...

So summer has begun for me, meaning waking up at 2pm everyday and going to sleep at 5am. Pretty good life I think. I just got hired at a Pizza place called Lucci's the other day. Yesterday in fact. I start today at 6. I'm really looking forward to it but I want to get off dish washing ASAP. I would've rather had a more real job than the food industry but oh well. I found out I got a D- in Physics 2 so I am retaking it over the summer. Class starts Tuesday. Its only twice a week though but it does run all summer. Hopefully I can get an A in it and fix my GPA. Prom was last night for all the high school kids. Prom was fun last year, wish there were more dances and stuff like that in college.

AMERICA **** YEAH

Haha all this Osama stuff. Is it weird that I could care less? Guess I just never was affected by any of this war stuff. Does this mean its over? Like I dont actually see whats gonna change now thats he's dead. Also, home from school. I spent my last weekend with my girlfriend for a while. It was a good weekend tho, depsite me being fairly sick. Still sick. Throat hurts like a mother.. So far I got a B and a C for final grades. 3 more rolling in, fairly certain I did not pass physics but I guess we will see. I am really looking forward to next semester. I have my own house that I am living in with a friend Zach and the classes seem more interesting. Just need to find a job now, anyone hiring? ^.^

blog blog blog blog blog

Happy easter doods. This weekend went pretty well. I basically baricaded myself in my room to study and play video games. It was a good time. Minimal human contact ha. I was gonna go to the pirates game on friday with my fraternity but the game got rained out. Yeah life's boring. First final on Tuesday :OOOOOO

Thats all,

Posting? Eh.

I guess I should start bloggin again. I got kinda bored of it because I was just doing it for adsense but I think I'm just gonna start writing for myself. I mean I always was but ehhh idk. Idk what the point of that statement was. Anyways... Life has been ok. I got elected Interfraternity Council Chairman for Sigma Alpha Mu, Psi chapter and Treasurer for Robotics Club so thats will be cool new responsibilities. Pens playoffs are going on right now along with finals. The playoffs are awesome. They are currently tied 2-2 in overtime. I'm pretty worried about finals. I think I am going to get a D in physics this semester so I need to look at taking it over the summer. It really sucks :/ Never taking a 8am class ever again, no matter what my advisor tells me. My engineering final is tomorrow. Kinda excited for it i guess. Need to finish studying and do good on it. Wish me luck~

Ummm

So like my life has been pretty boring lately. I dont know what to say. I had a boring week of college, well it was stressful as well but thats still boring ha. I'm going to my fraternity's formal tomorrow with my girlfriend which should be fun. Oh! I know what happened this week that isnt completely dumb. I played in a racketball tournament and I got shut out in both games. The kid I played was like really good, although I'll admit I'm not very good either. It was a tournament and well I got knocked out first round. I feel like I'm in the NCAA haha. Speaking of that, GO PITT! :D

I also had to change my windshield wipers and get a haircut but after that it was fun ha. Hung out with some friends and then went out to dinner then chilled at another friends house then went home. I'm having a birthday party tomorrow, I'm pretty excited for it. Well I need to get back to making the playlist, yeahhhhh birthdayyyyyz

Pokemon Black

Yeahhhhh new pokemon game came out today! Its pretty sweet, pretty much the same game as always. So far I have 2 gym badges and I'm hoping to get a few more tonight. Got myself the water started and a pokemon called sawk, he's like the new hitmonchan. I'm trying to beat it in as little game time as possible and perferably as fast as possible but its hard to play for too long. The speakers I got as like huge. Havent measured them but they are really large and heavy. I'm pretty excited to try them out but I have no where to set them up haha. Well I'm gonna get back to being a pokemon master, later.

Spring Break

Yay! It's finally spring break and I'm blogging from the comfortable of my own home. Although sometimes I prefer it at school, as in right now I'd rather be there because all my stuff is still there. I mean I take a bunch of stuff home but it still feels like I live at school and thats where my real home is, which is weird because most people think the opposite. I'm throwing a party next Saturday for my Birthday and I am super excited! I bought about $1000 worth of Dj equipment and am trying to get a business started up. I'm still sick which sucks but I've been on antibiotics for a few days now, hoping it will go away soon and that I start to feel better before the 10th(my birthday :)).

Sick

So I think I'm getting strep throat again. I had it last semester and it appears to be back. And a week before spring break too! :( Hopefully I can get rid of it before then. Going to the doctor Thursday I think. In other news, college is still hard and I still can't manage my time very well. Oh well, that is life ya I suppose.

Feels Good Man

Woo. Staying on track. Getting my posts done and my comments out there. feelsgoodman.jpg
Currently trying to finish up some differential equations homework but blogging is nice break. I found out that the average on my physics test was really low, all the people I talked to have gotten below a 40 and since I got a 60 I am feeling pretty good about it. Today I declared myself as a Computer Engineering student at the University of Pittsburgh. feelsgoodman.jpg

The paper is going really well also. We are trying to finish it by Sunday so we can meet with some people and get some reviews. I am surprised how easy it has been to write my conference paper :) I am also planning a party for spring break. I am pretty excited. Birthday rave, gonna be a good time.

Been a While...

Well its been about a week since I last blogged about anything. Ugh. Having trouble keeping up with it for some reason. Oh well, I'll get back into the swing of things. I'm currently in the calm before the storm at school. Spring break is coming up which means tests are coming up. I am not excited. Physics is giving me major problems... I got a 60% on the final. Class at 8am just does not work for me.. All my other classes are going well though. I am nervous for my engineering analysis midterm though.

I'm writing a paper for an engineering conference about robots, anyone have any expertise? Looking for someone that I might be able to do an online interview with. Let me know! Thanks!

Break- Valentine's Day

So turns out writing blow reviews aren't actually fun. :/ I still like the idea but its a lot harder to write about than just writing about my day. So today I'm going to talk about my valentines day. :) First thing that happened was I surprised my girlfriend by hanging a bag full of chocolate on her dorm room door. Then we had lunch together. Then I took her out to dinner at an Indian place. Then we saw "No Strings Attached". It was alright, had its funny moments and whatnot. Then we went back to my room where I laid rose pedals around. I gave her a heart I french beaded. She gave me a Pens banner and fresh baked cookies and ice cream. Then she went back and fell asleep. Overall pretty good day. How was your valentines day?

Blog Review - ZPSN Sports



Zspn is the next blog I am reviewing. It is a great sports blog that covers sports from nascar to baseball to football. Written by a fellow named Zach (hense the ESPN -> ZSPN) who is a student looking into going to Louisiana State University. His focus is mainly on r football, baseball, hockey, and basketball, but tries to cover all sports. His blogs are written well and give interesting persectives into the world of sports. If you have a chance definitely stop over at his page. http://zspneverydaysports.blogspot.com/

Also, I will be writing my next review on a random blog posted in the comments below. So if you'd like to get review, make sure you leave a comment! Thanks!

Blog Review - Ducks2Nucks

Hey everyone, tonight I'm going to put some direction into this blog. I will visiting other blogs and posting review of them. I will most likely be following the list of blogs I enjoy posted here. Anyway since I can't review my own site, first up is my friend Evan's blog:Ducks2Nucks

Ducks2Nucks is NHL blog focusing specifically on the Pittsburgh Penguins. The blog was started on January 17th and has 21 posts since then. The blog has 4 writers, Evan, Adam, Quinn, and Jake.
Evan, Quinn, and Adam are all freshmen students at Point Park University. Jake is Adam's older brother and attends Robbert Morris University. The banner at the top of the page was designed and created by Jake. I personally find the blog to be very interesting and quirky. I may have a slightly jaded opinion due my friendship with all the guys at Ducks2Nucks. Also, I love hockey and the NHL so it would make to enjoy a blog about my favorite Pittsburgh sport team (Penguins). Being written by teenagers, it has a lolarious feeling to it. Even if you don't love hockey I'm sure you'll still enjoy their blog. But if you do love hockey be absolutely sure to check out http://ducks2nucks.blogspot.com

Greek Life

Just got back from my a greek life event on campus at Pitt. It was called Greek Olympiad. Basically just a bunch of sporting events to see which fraternity/sorority is the most athletic ie. football toss, tug o war, sack races, dizzy bat. Pretty fun stuff. I really like Greek Life at Pitt. How you you guys feel about fraternities/sororities?

Morning Coffee

Morning Coffee is a firefox add-on that opens multiple pages in the same browser with this click of a button. Allowing you to bookmark all your favorite blogs and open them simultaneously. I've been doing this for a while now and I thought more people ought to know!
Download Morning Coffee Here
The above link is to download morning coffee, a firefox add-on. Once you download it, install it. Then click on the this tab:


After that select: Configure Morning Coffee. Then a new window will appear that looks like this:
In this window you will need to add the websites you wish to open. This way you can add everyone you are following and open up all the tabs at the same time. Then you can go through and drop some comments on interesting reads. Now everyone gets more views but you don't have to go through the hassle of opening everyone's page individually. Don't add too many links to morning coffee unless your computer can handle it. On a slower computer opening 87 blogs at one time might crash your computer! If you have any questions feel free to ask in the comments!

In other news I didn't get the summer job I was hoping for. Oh well. Life goes on and so does my search for summer employment. Also I go to the University of Pittsburgh. Go Pitt! Oh and I'm a computer engineering major. And a freshman. Alright thats all. Hope everyone gets a chance to experience the helpfulness of MORNING COFFEE!

Physics- and why it sucks.

Ugh. College leaves me with way too much homework and due to my poor time management skills I end up so far behind. I currently need to: Do physics homework, write an anotated bibliography, rewrite an abstract, do some online causal reasoning homework, do differential equations homework,and finally write a paper on how to read the bible academically. I was working on my physics homework today, and I must be tired or something because every time I subtracted 3 from 26.5 I got 22.5 which led to the wrong answer for about an hour. Ugh. Online homeworkkkkk! Well, I'm gonna get some sleep. Can't wait for Friday friends!

Here's a link to some Superbowl stuff. Guess I got accepted for Amazon ads!

Highlights of My Week

So last friday I went to a custom car show and Kris Letang was there signing autographs. Got my hat signed! Pretty freakin' sweet. Then I slept I over with some friends from Point Park. I'm a University of Pittsburgh student by the way. Various video games and alcoholic ramblings ensued. Pitt Panthers lost today. :( First time in twenty game they lost at home! Also I went to do my physics homework today, you know to stay ahead and not procrastinate but it ended up being due at 9am. Luckily the professor pitied me and gave me until 9am tomorrow to do it. Guess I shoud get started! Thanks for all the support! Oh yeah, and GO STEELERS!

Why do I always blog so late at night?

Probably cause I cant sleep. Sounds about right. Tomorrow I have an interview for a job, I'm pretty nervous. I suppose I should get some sleep before hand but this whole being online thing is much more apealing. Just made some tea. Pretty good stuff. Peppermint herbal tea, from Rite-Aid no less. So the interview for a summer intership program where I would run my own painting company. It sounds pretty awesome. Potential to make 10 grand. Apparently I'd be in charge of the whole company, which is the kind of control I'd like to have in a summer job. I really hope I get an offer tommorrow. Wish me luck! Night all.

Giving Up

Well, as you can see I havent posted since my first post but I'm getting back in the game! I've since abandoned my original idea because I'm now in college and not at highschool anymore, meaning I dont see that kid anymore. Plus that idea was pretty hard anyway. Now I'm just going to tell you about my average life of being a college freshman. So my day today: Woke up around 1:20pm. Went to class at 2. My friend peas is in that class. We're partners. Went to class at 4. Math class, pretty lame. Then I ate with my girlfriend, her roomate, and her friend. Then I had another class. Then I ate with my girlfriend again. Then I came here. Pretty boring day actually. Alright thats all for tonight!
