Woot!

I got google docs offline access!

 

  

It enables you to edit and view your documents offline, but you can’t create new docs at this time. oh well.

The past week - in brief (relative to war and peace)

so here I am in a hospital, vegging out waiting for a tech to come cement more electrodes to my forehead. I’m busy playing a emulated pokemon game while I’m waiting, instead of doing more important things like blogging. Or taking pictures. Or going to CAP. Dang, I hope they didn’t miss me at CAP. Andrew was finally going to start cracking down on all of the slacking in the squadron.

So at volleyball competition, we apparently had a series of crises that finally came to a head. First off, caleb wouldn’t leave Andrew alone, giving him jumper cables and everything. Second, feth had NO customs and courtesies, making Andrew even more annoyed. And third, Crystal Jarve was there, which is a whole post in and of itself. But anyway, before all this too, the seniors were badgering andrew specifically to do something on the “acroicious” position the squadron’s in. which is kind of funny, because we get no help from the seniors whatsoever. Actually, no. that’s a lie. Captian Wallace helps us, but that’s when she’s there, which is even more infrequent than her husband. And he’s gone a lot.

But anyway, the seniors have been wanting to fix the cadet program for a while now, from what I’ve heard. We can fix some of it, like the cadet discipline problem, and other little things, but the thing is that we have almost no interaction with the seniors in the regular course of the cadet meeting. It’s extremly frustrating when we try to do Physical Training, and we end up having to go to the YMCA, we have to foot the bill, we have to get there under our own power, and the seniors are sitting back at squadron building arguing who’s turn it is to fly the plane! Augh.

 

Anyway, the sleep study. It’s morning now, I just slept the night between this paragraph and the last. Basically, the sleep study is to determine if I have any real medical reason for falling asleep in the middle of church other than I find it boring or some such reason. So what they do is they hook you up to sensors to determine your heart rate, your breath temperature, your chest expansion when you breathe, wether your legs move or not during the night (ressless leg syndrome), and of course the standard head electrode thingys. I’ll put some pictures with this, but forgive the quality, as it’s taken with my cell phone. Anyway, they hook you up to these things, and then you go to sleep. I just woke up around six forty, where I had most of the sensors taken off, less the head ones, and was told that nothing of note happened during the night. That means that I have to wait and do the daytime tests, which I was told should take me from the early to mid afternoon.

So right now I’m sitting on the bed, waiting for breakfast and the daytime tests.

So depending on when this test ends, I think I’m going to take the bus to Mcdonalds, where I (if I’m lucky) will get to see a “favorite person.”

Just got my breadfast and found out that the test’s going to start at 0800. It’s 0728 right now.

Evolve Today!!!

Slowly but surely, I’m splicing myself. Here are the results of my first splicing:

Once again, suggestions are welcome, and I do intend to do more of this kind of thing.

Back to Business!

All right folks, now that I’ve finally got my hands on Photoshop again, this thing can really get off the ground. I’m working on a wallpaper/website graphic for CAP, and it’s turned out like this:

Here’s the link to the deviantART site, where you can download it do your heart’s content.

Anyway, what do you think? Give me some feedback.

Bad Hair Day…

It’s worse than It looks…

Test Post 2…

Hang on, I’m testing the post from Word 07 feature…..

Can you see me now?

Ha. The Jerks.

So this is why the LSC and CSS campus’s are all filtered and throttled down, respectively.

College Students: The MPAA still hates you.

Yet another picture.

At long last…. the moment you’ve all been wating for!!! (well, me at least)

To Infinity and Beyond….

I’ve always wanted to be a superhero. From the second I read my first Spider-Man comic, I wanted to be someone who could do amazing things, like leaping tall buildings in a single bound, shooting webs from my wrists, (yes, I know that I’m getting my universes crossed, but so what?)or yelling corny catchphrases while beating the living crap out of bad guys (it’s clobberin’ time!). But then, reality set in.

I couldn’t be a Superhero! “I don’t have any superpowers!” “You can’t fight!” “You’re out of shape!”, and so on and so on. I didn’t have the scope anymore to see of what I could do, the people I could help, the awesome things I could accomplish, because I didn’t have any superpowers.

 

But recently, I came across an article about these ordinary people who dress up in funky costumes fight crime or volunteer their time helping people. They call themselves “reals”, like how the heroes are called “supers” in The Incredibles. They have an online presence, (site link here) a guy who makes their costumes, and most have their own myspace pages. Apparently it’s completely different than in the comic books (who’da thunk?), because things don’t happen in front of the hero on a daily basis. This renews my faith in humanity again, for them being able to help people in such an awesome and inspiring way.

Yeah, so this has been a totally useless post, unless you’re interested in me fanboying over a bunch of people that should never be allowed to even go near spandex, let alone wear it.

I’m sorry it took so long for me to post today, this week for that matter, but i’m going to write more today, about some tech-like things…. I think.
