yay for excitement.

What'd you do?

I had a VERY good day.

There's an academic competition that starts at the regional level and builds to State in Illinois run by WYSE, and high school students get to test in engineering related areas. The head of the science department stuck me on the WYSE team for computer science and then put my secondary testing area as chemistry. I almost made top 3 in chemistry, and I took home 1st place in computer science; my school ended up advancing as whole because we did the best. The awards are a nice little medal, a piece of paper saying I got first place, and a 71 credit-hour scholarship at the community college where I took the tests. If only the town wasn't an hour away, I might use the scholarship this summer to pick up a few classes. Oh, and it was especially awesome since I got to tell everyone I was competing as a sophomore in highschool, and I'm farily certain I was the only person under grade 11.

Sectionals are in about a month, I'm hoping to do pretty well there too and actually get some studying in for the topic this time.

A very satisfying day.

*cookie*

I visited a homeless shelter and helped them stock/sort donated food. It was awesome to get out and do something good for people.

This sums up my day:

Went through the desert with a horse with no name.

i uhm... played some video games and watched a couple netflix movies that arrived earlier today (nick and nora's infinite playlist, rocknrolla)

also ordered some cheap hd dvds

today was pretty boring overall... yesterday however... i took an old skateboard deck and dicked around with it on the remaining ice on the ground

Worked, then came home, then went to the Velodrome for an hour riding session.
Feel good now, semi-tired, but more awake than I was at work anyway.

Worked, played bass with a bunch of old Dead-heads, walked home through snow, and got pizza. It's been a fun day.

studied integrals
yay!

My day has been ****ing awesome so far.
First class -- The test I thought I was going to have (That I did not study for) is actually next week.

Second class - I blew through the test in 10 minutes without a problem. I could hear the grunts of frustration with everyone else. So acing it + knowing everyone else was having a hard time when I wasn't = even better.

Checked my e-mail in the class - Third class canceled!

.. On the drive home, NO RED LIGHTS!!! There's like 20 lights on the drive, and a couple of them are nasty with long waits. I didn't have to use my breaks the whole trip. It was awesome.

Went to Hannaford and cashed in my my Clynk account.

Since there is no class tonight I'll probably grab my snowboard and head up to the mountain.

I did connections this morning, and connections this aft.

Not thrilling.

Well, I'm gonna start splitting the TODOA level into 3 parts and wondering why the hell didn't I start editing some actually new game like 5 years ago bah

Slept through most of it.

I hate it when I do that.
