I've cut to 120 so I guess that's not bad... I have 10 days to lose 7 lbs, which is not bad at all. That's not factoring that I completely let myself go whenever there is food around me. and there is bound to be food around me this weekend.

I haven't had that yet, which is surprising because I have worst speech problems. Whenever anyone says "Enjoy *subject*!" I usually respond with "Thanks" and keep it moving. Probably because I just like to avoid talking to people in general.

Yeah, I had been sick earlier in the week and I got a phone call from a friend. He said, "I hope you feel better soon," and I accidentally said, "you too." It was embarrassing...

I quoted this before and I'll do it again.
"Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter." -Mark Twain No matter how physically old my body will get I'll try to keep the mindset I have now. Age is just a manmade concept, what's real is that I'll always keep striving to be better than the man I was yesterday. |

I don't even know how old I feel. I'm in my final year of high school and so I know I'm only technically a minor but I have a job where I'm in an important role, I had to file my taxes this year, I make car payments for my insurance and I pay my cell phone bill all while playing Leaf Green on my Game Boy. I got my acceptance letter for university and my parents were gushing over it all ("Oh my baby has grown up so quickly!") I'm going on a school trip to another continent in only 4 days and yeah. I'm at a transition stage in my life, and so far I've been enjoying it!

At least I've been old for long enough that I don't get much of the stuff anymore. Unrelated, but I just recently realized that the units on E = mc^2 are kg*m^2/s^2 = Joules, like any other unit of energy, and that the derivitave of area of a circle (pi*r^2) equals the circumference (2*pi*r). And I used to say I was good at math, ha. Last edited by Dragonite; March 24, 2014 at 09:21:57 AM. |

I'm still wondering whether I should get my wisdom teeth pulled or not. They're all grown in, I think that finished a couple months ago. The no longer bother me or anything, sometimes I even forget that I have extra teeth.

If you can avoid it, you probably shouldn't. Yogurt, feeling like there's a brick constantly in your mouth and the necessity of using mouthwash about three times a day gets old real fast >.< Pretty sure it's fairly expensive to get teeth pulled, too.

Wow, either people get their wisdom teeth pulled out late or I just did mine early. I had my wisdom teeth pulled out the summer before I became a high school freshman. Not because I needed it, but just because my parents wanted me to have them removed for some reason. Hmm. But either way, it was not an enjoyable experience and if you can avoid it, do so. I had no will of my own as an 8th grader so I really didn't care. Plus I had no precedent so I wasn't really sure what to expect.

I said this before, but I reeeeeeally need to get off Reddit. Maybe it's just the YouTube-related SRs that I hang out on, but I feel like every other thread I see there is either somebody complaining that they joined two weeks ago and aren't Pewdiepie's rival yet, or asking for pirated game links. Meanwhile, the few people who are legitimately trying to be nice and`or helpful get downvoted to oblivion anyway.
On a relatively happier note, I got back to school from spring break in one piece. Now I have about three hours before I have to go to sleep and start focusing on that crazy stuff called "work" again, yay. |

So my Dad got Chinese food from Haggen for lunch today (which is super good by the way) and my siblings and I were opening the fortune cookies that we got with the meal.. And mine said "Eat your fruits and vegetables to strengthen your health." Really, of all the inspirational things mine could say, I happened to get one that tells me to eat more fruits and veggies. XD Although, admittedly, I don't eat near enough of them.

A little while ago I noticed that a couple of picture frames in the cluster of photos on the wall next to me didn't look quite straight... I then spent 15 minutes making minute adjustments to all of them and I'm still not entirely satisfied with the result. ._.
edit: There we go, I think everything's straight now. Last edited by NismoZ; April 7, 2014 at 04:59:13 PM. |

I felt a bit nervous trying to demo a newly-written Java program to my lecturer. I'm bad at presentations, to be honest... Every time I try to perform or present something, I have... issues. Last edited by Twiggy; April 17, 2014 at 05:59:53 AM. |

Java ruined my online chemistry homework.
I am very technologically dumb. I would try taking a CS class, but my friend said he dropped out after the first week because they expected him to know too much stuff beforehand. ...seriously, how are you supposed to learn this stuff beforehand? If your high school didn't offer the course, then you're basically screwed. I also get very frustrated when stuff breaks, so maybe CS isn't a good idea for now. |

As for CS classes, UNLV has the same problem. For me, the introductory CS class was a breeze, but that was only because I've taken a number of CS classes in high school and was into personal programming before that. I've seen a few people drop the class because the teacher is too strict with stuff that really only matters to CS majors, like the exact number of spaces in a table or the clarity of the comments. |

Learning it for me was quite easy, but only because I learn things fast. This has been my only year of looking at any programming and I'm the top student in the class even though some have been in engineering for 4 years. And it's mostly because I take time out of my life to play around with code to see what works and what doesn't. If you actually do decide to do it, even though I thought your thing was like lame rocks and stuff, you gotta be patient and roll with the punches. |

It sounds like the local ice cream van is still playing Christmas tunes. I had to get several clips and stitch them together thanks to several helicopters droning by. The songs were interspersed with common fare like "Waltzing Matilda," "La Cucaracha," and "Home on the Range."
Clips include such classics as:

I did nothing today only because I did so much yesterday.
First I went to the gym Attended a student panel where I had to answer questions about technology in the class room with other students at my college, I was told I did fine but I felt like an idiot who had no idea what was being talked about. Of course the was free food there like sandwich platters and soda at the event and I got a 25$ Gift Card to the school cafe and afterwards they brought out the girll so I ate even more food. It was so nice out I decided to walk at a nearby hiking trail which was nice. I also had to help set up the media club set up the film festival where I also got free food. The film festival was cool because we had a professional film director as a speaker and there were some interesting films, some were good, some were hilariously bad and some lingered on for way to long but it was a really fun experience overall. I also took home a bunch of leftover soda. |

Toronto Airport. iPads. EVERYWHERE.
There are seating terminals by all of the gates in Terminal C that have iPad Minis at them. And there are TONS of them. Like, more iPad seats than regular seats. They've managed to make "killing 2 and a half hours before the flight" actually enjoyable. And it makes me not look forward to the cheap-ass AirTran flight I'm waiting for. |

Electrical tape is complete rubbish. My iPod cable is sort of broken (well, I think it's my sister's but she refuses to take it) and about a week ago I wrapped some electrical tape around it. Today, it's just slid off of the part it's supposed to be wrapped around! So, with no more tape on-hand, I wrapped a band-aid around it. And that works brilliantly.

What's annoying about it is that it makes simple Americans feel like they know K-Pop when the genre has so much more to offer. Last edited by TurtwigX; May 31, 2014 at 07:48:38 PM. |

This. Definitely this. I've received a little exposure to K-Pop through a few specific folks, and there's a heck of a lot more variety to it than just Gangnam Style. The same can be said to those who dislike American pop from the past few years (which I personally think is an improvement over much of last decade's pop).

Today I learned how to rip Wii games from the discs. Now to unpack them in Dolphin and see if I can find anything fun in the program files.
Oh and I started looking into Wii development, too. Probably one of the least useful skills I can have but this should be an interesting experience. "What did you do this summer?" "I tried to program a Wii game." "Wait what?" Edit: Related, today I learned that there are GameCube games which are bigger than some Wii games. o-o Edit 2: Super Mario Galaxy ROM hacks. I wonder if those are possible. Probably not. Last edited by Dragonite; June 1, 2014 at 05:20:35 PM. |
