WU Vision

I just finished helping Trevdog (AKA Trevor Essimier) launch his new website, Willamette University Vision (AKA WUVision.com), today. For those of us that went to SAAS with Trevor, this should be a way to get our fix of "Essimiers," but without all those emails. So anyways, dig in.

Mines not on TheFacebook.com

I’ve known this for a long time and have even submitted various requests. However, I need your help! One man can only do so much. However, one man and his website can do quite a bit, hopefully.

Click here to request that TheFacebook.com add CSM to their list of supported sites. The link will open up in a new window. Once you’ve done if from your computer, go to your neighbors and do it again. And then do it from work. From ALL the computers at work. Go to your neighbors work and do if from there. Go to the public library and click on the link from all the computers their. IM all your buddies and have them click on the link. Here’s the link again: http://www.thefacebook.com/contact.php?newschool=Colorado%20School%20of%20Mines. Share the link with your friends, get CSM added to TheFacebook.com!

Books for 2nd Semester

I just bought one of my books online at Amazon.com for $14 + S&H. It was a $92 book, and yet I got it for over 80% off. That’s rediculus. Why can’t the bookstore be cheaper?

Google and Trevor

When I get bored (or can’t sleep), I often end up googling either myself or some of my high school classmates. Then I send whatever I find to Trevor on AIM. It’s actually quite fun. Anyways, I actually searched for everybody. Here are some of the more interesting things I found:

See if you can figure out who’s listed in each of these links. Some are really easy, others are a bit harder.

Schedule for Next Semester

I’m still working on the details, but my schedule for next semester will look something like this:

Grades Are In

Grades are in for my Fall Semester:

  • Earth and Environmental Systems: C
  • EPICS I: A
  • Principles of Chemistry: C
  • Physical Education: A

Cumulative: 2.609

2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9-Bromo-4,7-Propyl-5,6-Butyl-Decane

And that’s a wrap. My last final is done and over with. It was actually pretty easy, considering how hard all the other tests were. Van Blackwood, my TA for Chem Lab was one of the supervising TA’s for the test; he said that I got a good grade on my lab section, "probably a low A." Can’t argue with that. He’s also TAing the Quant Lab for next semester, so I’m going to try and get in that lab because he’s probably one of the best TA’s out there. He’s not a hard ass, but he also ask explains things to me without actually giving me the answer. Anywho. I’m going to play Halo 2 for a little while, then pack, get some sleep (hopefully), and head out to Seattle for vacation! 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9-Bromo-4,7-Propyl-5,6-Butyl-Decane is the answer I got to the last question. Hopefully it’s right.

One Down, One to Go

One Down, One to Go

Well, one test down, and one to go. Earth and Environmental Sciences was a relativly easy test. We also had an extra credit problem where we had to determine the size of the moon as a ratio of the size of the earth. Click on the picture to see how I figured it out. Tomorrow I have Chemistry, and then I’m done! Yay!

EPICS Competition

Jennifer and I wanted to write you guys and tell you that unfortunatley you guys came in a VERY close third. We thougtht you guys did such a good job it deserved honorable memntion recognition. Dr. Knecht had to make a decision and he chose two others. We saw how hard you guys worked and how professional your projection, model, and boards were. B&B members should be proud! And seriously, you guys did get third place. -Mike
