Site changes

I was sitting here working on my Internetworking and OS Scripting assignments but got bored and decided to mess around with the blog.

  • Upgraded to the WordPress 1.5.1 two days ago…have yet to notice any changes, but everything still works and a security bug is apparently fixed. Yay.
  • I also added the XMLHttpRequest calendar in the sidebar; I think that sidebar is getting cluttered but not having to page refresh between months is, admittedly, pretty cool.
  • Lastly, you should write a comment and see what happens. It’s cool too.

Classes are finished for the year. I wish I felt some sense of relief…but thats not happening until finals are over.

Co-op RIT

Almost finished…

Last week of spring quarter…and just like last year, the nicest days of the entire year are flying by in the final days.
Tried to get away from finals briefly by going to the gym for the first time in far too long. I tried to not overdo things, but (unsurprisingly) didn’t have much luck. I really want to use the swimming pool more before the year is over, I’ve hardly been to it. The gym is so much fun once you get into it. “Runner’s high” is totally cool, very relaxing.

I was on the way to German III in 75 degree weather, and remembering just how amazing summer vacation is hit me like a ton of bricks. It’s one of those few memories left for me that has that empowering, “whole summer at your command” appeal to it.

The same walk every morning can really get to you…

I’m still in the running for co-op applications for this summer…RITs deadline for credit is June 27th. Hopefully the hunt will improve once I have more time. I’d really like to (finally) learn Perl or work on some open source programs like WordPress, but co-ops come first.

And Now, the Ollie Williams Discipline Forecast

Oh mah Bezebel have I been working. I finished my major project and worked on lots of school work in the past week or so…it’s that time of year again when Burnout Factor™ is nigh, and summer is blindingly close…

So of things interesting to read, documents written about you or your major but for hiring managers are high on the A list. A list of such documents from RIT can be found here if you’re so inclined. See how cool your major is compared to the rest of em.

He gonn’ get it!
Glad they’ve still got it..
