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.

 

This is what happens when you send a high school band to a college

Battle of the (unheard-of-often-mediocre) Bands?

So at my school today, we had a band from “The battle of the bands” show up in the cafeteria, and start to rock out. WHY? Even though LSC is a sponsor of the battle of the bands, other places like Wells Fargo do too, and you don’t see them promoting the event by parking the band in the middle of their lobby! Call me crazy, but wouldn’t you think that they might actually want to put the band on a STAGE? in an AUDITORIUM? It’s just stupid. I mean, the commons are where people go to study, not to mosh.

LOL…… Just kidding. But it’s still funny

I’m testing another offline blog editor today called “w.bloggar.” It was made by a guy named Marcelo in Brazil. It looks all right, but I don’t know if it’s worth switching from Word. Let’s see if it posts pictures, as well…

Okay, now that that worked…

Anyhoo, today is the first day of school for me, and it’s going quite well. I had my UNIX class, and even though I managed to get into a little trouble, it went all right. After the class was over, I went to the video lab, where I’ve practically lived the past year and a half at school, and SUPRISE! They redecorated it! They changed the colors from dusty pink and tan to dark red and white. It looks new! It’s the high point of my day! I don’t know why I’m using so many exclimation points!

Anyway, my online account cleared, and now I’ve started using Mint. It’s a fascinating tool. I’m looking forward to using that in the future.

Oh, and I fixed my iPod. I found a formatting utility called kill disk, and I used that on the iPod. Worked like a charm, and my iPod is now reborn.
