New Post?!!!!!

Yes, yes, I apologize! It has been a very long time since this blog has been updated and it may be a while before it is updated once again. And this update isn't much more than entertainment :)

My schedule has been extremely busy. In addition to work, TA hours, school and my own household needs, I've also been trying to join an honor society called Eta Kappa Nu which is for Electrical Engineers. It's for the upper 1/4 of Juniors or 1/3 of Seniors. It was pointed out to me though that to be in the professional school, you have to have a B average so maybe it is more honourable than it seemed at first :)

I have to help with tutoring (more Circuits, so it's not a problem, just more time) and various meetings and gathering signatures of instructors. Yesterday I went and got a few more signatures for my collection and managed to catch one older instructor while he was on his way to his office. He said that he would have to ask me a question before he gave me a signature. So he asked me
"Do you know what the speed of light is?"
I said "about three times ten to the eighth meters per second."
"Good. Hmm.... what about the charge on an electron?"
"Approximately One point six zero two times ten to the negative nineteenth Coulombs."
"Hmm, very good! Let me see.... do you know the diameter of the earth?"
I paused for a second and then said, "No, and I don't even have a rough estimate."
He took a long sigh and then proceeded to give me a speech which went like this:
"Well, now, you know. You have to know these things. Life is all about numbers and if you don't know these... say for example you wanted to know how far it is to another country, you could count the time zones and then calculate the distance based upon 1/24 of the circumference if you knew the diameter. Well, okay" (another long sigh) "I'll give you a signature if you /promise/ me you'll learn these things."

I kind of had a hard time not laughing because he was dead serious this entire time. I hope life isn't all about numbers!

Okay, so now for some pictures :D

I got a new computer (you heard right Amigo) and it's amazing. I really like it a lot. It also has a built in webcam with software that is called photo booth and you can take all sorts of goofy pictures. So......

Check these goofy things out :D
