Feel somewhat tired at the moment and a little worn out, but doing fine so far.
We got new toys in the lab today; two interferometers that measure light wavelengths and the interference between the two, or something similar. I assembled one today and almost got it working, you just need to align the laser properly. Their bases are heavy; I put them in the cabinet. I’ll mess around with them next week. Cool toys.

This is an older piece that I redid with my newfound art skills of this year. I was very happy how this turned out, especially after bringing my imaginary childhood ship to life. I thought the “pixeling” of ships was limiting and rudimentary, but it was definitely much more pleasing to look at, over my not-so-good-anime drawings I was attempting.
This is something I’ll be trying in the future again. Let’s see if it’ll stick around.
Sorry if I’m a little slow at the moment, for once, I stuck to schedule today, and I took a nap.
Turned in my project for Accounting project in today. Glad that’s over, just the final for that class now. I have my math test tomorrow, so I have to study when I go home tonight. I should get my grade back from Political Science tomorrow. I also do my final for Biology tomorrow…
Talked to an interesting face I met off of deviantART, she called me a dork. I think I can live with that. Definitely a fresh breath of air!
That done, I think I have to go home now. Later!

Today is slightly colder than yesterday, but it should hopefully be warmer soon. There was frost in the cow pastures this morning as I passed by them to go to school.
Last night, I put out a preview of my first-ever anime music video. You take clips from a cartoon/movie, and mix them with music, thus a music video. I used footage from the final episode of Gundam Seed, and started to mix it with KOTOKO – Re-Sublimity. I had to study for Political Science, so only so much got done.

Today doesn’t seem that bad today. Its actually nice and not that cold outside.
Finally tried the Sandbox mode on Startopia last night. That’s my only good game so far. I kept have power shortages… o_O but I think I get the hang of what to do now. Drew a variant of an alien based on a Dahanese Siren, to fit in my IGA universe. Will color tonight when I get it scanned. I will study for my Political Science test tomorrow, nap some, draw, and scan & upload.

Good morning, now it is time for another blog.
Startopia is so cool! I am at mission 3 so far, and will try to go home early and get to play it some. I want to draw art for it after seeing the Dahanese Sirens, they have cute hairstyles.
Dr. Morgan’s testing of his SkyScout was halted when the batteries died. I tell you, they need good new batteries in the lab. Charging didn’t help them. They just lost the charge almost immediately. Also that thing eats up a bunch of power trying to locate the GPS satellites…I’ll retry tonight. But it did work last night, though. I located Saturn, heard an audio description of it, and used it to find some other stuff.

Wow, I haven’t blogged a lot. This is what’s been going on.
This weekend was sort of a bummer. Because of religious reasons, couldn’t eat bread or anything with yeast inside of it. Practically starved myself on Saturday. Sunday, finished my Nue-Guyen shipset for Space Empires IV Gold. Did a lot of yardwork that lasted all day, did a bit of schoolwork in the night, then went to bed. Very boring.
Today, had a Biology test that I think that I did swell…we get Political Science test on Friday. At least Mrs. Foutch taught us stuff today, and didn’t let conversation take up the class time.
Upon reaching to work-study today, Dr. Morgan presented me with something interesting. “I have a new toy I’m sure you would want to want to play with.” he said, revealing a Celestron SkyScout. I am still figuring out the details of the device, but from what I read from the manual, its a device that you can aim at celestial objects, and using GPS satellite technology, it will use the information and correlating it with an internal star chart, identify the object with you. I’ll get to try it out tonight, having special permission to attempt to get it running, and try it out.
Now if you excuse me, I’m off to go see if Startopia came in, and to go play it if it came in. Later.

I think I’m ready to settle in for the weekend. I had a not-so-tiring but still busy day yesterday.
Upon arriving at ETSU in Johnson City aboard the USS Orion, I bought Taco Bell food of two bean burritos, a nachos, a drink, a Fiesta Potatoes, and a Nacho Cheese Chalupa.
When I met my cousin, he took me back to the dorm. I shared a burrito and some of the nachos with him, and gave his roommate the chalupa. Once we finished eating, per a contact’s instructions, we linked up with a previous face in front of the library; Kacie who I’d met from my first ETSU trip. We then went inside and sat down.

Well, it’s official. I have a job again, but this time thankfully it’s something a lot different than dealing with annoying customers at a retail store. I’m now a physics lab assistant! I have a ton of work to do in the labs and help the physics professor out, but tasks include maintaining science equipment, taking care of the observatory among other things. It’s a ton of work, and first thing was getting the workstation actually working and online! So a shot of accomplishment at the end of the day’s work after that.
Well, not a lot today. I will be enroute to the Johnson City is about two hours, to hear the astronaut talk. I’m soo excited!
Unfortunately, I can’t meet my cousins because they have to go to church or class, so I will see if I can get some of the new faces I met to rendezvous with me and tag along.
I’m off to work at the physics labs now, so that’s that for the moment! Sorry there isn’t much to say right now. TTYL!
