DOA

sorry for the lack of post in a month or so. again, no constant supply of internet to speak of. as it is i am at school in the computer lab and just lost internet access because of.. i dunno. i guess they dont like when you surf too much or something. so im typing in the blogger box cuz it happened to be open at the time.

so anyway, school has been getting a little crazy. i just finished midterm... so i turned in major things in all my classes. in comp drafting... nothing major just 6 3 view drawings of an electronic handheld that i designed (an ipod movie player... before it actually came out). in perspective i completed my simlple and complex perspective drawings. the simple ended up being a jet-looking thing and the complex was a jeep type truck. in model making i built a box out of wood and acrylic. it came out... ok at best. and its not COMPLETELY finished, but i cant say why. i also have a foam handheld device to start on. more on that later. and finally in design problem solving a built a balsa wood bridge. details on that can be found at my moblog. but basically... i stayed up all night (didnt sleep at all whatsoever) the night before finishing it up. and it paid off since mine held 85 lbs. and set the class record. whheee!

as for the foam thing... it was supposed to be due the day the box was due.... but since most people werent done and our class recovered the teacher's GF's lost digital camera he gave us an extension. that night on the way home i left my tool box on a bart train. it was inside. all the progress i had made (see moblog) was lost. that was last thurs. there is still no word on the tool box i will prolly have to replace a bunch of supplies, including the box itself. *sigh* so i have to start over and i got a second extension.

i just tried to recheck my connection... and i am still off limits. dammit. i better get internet back quick cuz i have to go to class.

aside from the bart mishap, everythings going ok.

according to the calendar my birthday is coming up. its weird because i used to be excited by now. but i find myself... not. maybe something special will happen anyway.

and i just got internet back. time to post.
