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.

I’m Now a Physics Lab Rat

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!

Okay, so sorry for not posting yesterday…things just happen too fast. Here’s the deal…

Didn’t work yesterday. Dr. Morgan wasn’t there, so I just went to go eat at Ryan’s, then went to Greeneville, & washed my car. Got my first CG art is on my gallery finally, and am hoping for some good feedback on it.

An astronaut is supposed to come to ETSU to speak tomorrow. I’m not sure if I’m going, but I plan on it. I’ll keep you posted on that.

Helped fix the house yesterday afternoon. Didn’t get to do much schoolwork or anything else, same on Sunday. Wrote some, but only a paragraph or two.

Well, its been late so far. Here goes, even if I am at home…

Finally figured out how to make my own music videos with video games…all I got to do now is have the footage, and mix it. Then, tada! Music video!

Dr. Morgan let me have a copy of the dynamics workstack so that I can mess around with it. The project is to launch a rocket, and estimate how high it will go. Sounds simple enough; I won’t launch a rocket, but I do want to see the equations so I get what’s going on.

I got to see a Portuguese man-of-war today in Biology 2 Lab. It was yellowed and the tentacles cut down to size so that it would fit in its plastic box with formaldehyde. We also saw a bunch of tiny jellyfish in tiny bottles, and a dead sea anemone. Finding Nemo comes to mind…Mrs. Eccles immediately grasped the relationship and did an almost perfect rendition of Nemo attempting to pronounce the name of this sea creature.

Okay, this is a little quick, but I would rather type little now and nothing at all today.

Had a Biology 2 test today. Not much happened, took pictures of stuff I did in school. Can’t wait to get home, and the weather is awesome! I am definitely playing with my water guns today if I get home early. Things may be looking up. Anyways, that’s about it. I’m still drawing…signing off.

Extreme apologies for not posting blogs on Monday & Tuesday. I wrote myself a schedule, and forgot blogging time…oh well, here goes nothing.

Sorry pictures are slow coming up, haven’t taken any lately. Don’t get the camera a lot. 🙁

Had a math test on Monday, had an accounting test yesterday, had a Biology test just now, then I have a Biology test on Friday…that’s a lot of tests! At least it would be over by the end of the week.

Felt sorta down this weekend, but am doing better now. Maybe it was a mood swing, who knows? I don’t feel the will or energy to figure out what’s going on at times.

Now I shall go post pictures and whatever else. If I think of anything else, I’ll blog it. XD

Well, here we are once more on a Friday. Very rainy, quiet, nothing out of the unusual…yet…

Sudden realization; since its raining tonight, that means no observatory trip! Woo hoo!

Got the spectrometer working. Dr. Morgan is extremely thrilled about this, and we’ll start doing experiments once I read the manuals and see what’s there to do. Real science work! Then I cleaned up part of the observatory. Food years old, and things as coffee, creamer & such, I just threw them all out. Dr. Morgan was also happy about that, stating that “This is the first time someone properly cleaned up in here in 15 years.”

Then I went home. Duh….

Thursday, got oil for the car & a fish filter. Also colored a lot of the drawings last night I posted yesterday.

Somewhat hungry right now, but don’t have money/credits to go buy anything. That’ll have to wait for now. As for other things…this is a comparatively small blog versus Monday & Wednesday. Over & out,

Okay, apologies for not writing a blog on Tuesday…Here’s the deal.

Not a lot happened yesterday. Felt tired, so took a nap. Had accounting class too, but didn’t enjoy it, I was tired and was attempting to stay away every minute. That’s the last time I’m taking a business class for a long while. I’m staying with my sciences.

My brother & I got the Super Soaker CPS-4100 operational. Though a tad bit sticky on the trigger, and you have to take both hands to make sure the trigger fires, its much better than having no gun. That back in the fight, bring on the water gun fighting season. I’m ready…no wait, have to fix more stuff…and wait for warmer weather…but I’m ready! 😀

I should write some of my stories when I feel bored, but most of the time I’m at a starbase where I can’t do anything. When I’m in the computer lab, I can’t drink or eat, so I can’t think straight either; It drives me nuts. Typing at home is a pain too, I feel the same way. At least I feel better at home, but all of that still leads to no stories. I think I need a place that I can eat and drink, not be bothered, have computer access and and isn’t at home. Where that is, I’ve yet to discover.

I think I need a vacation, not stay at home for a week, go out with people somewhere for a week.

Who Am I?
