I have recently brought it to my attention that I have been woefully remiss in updating my LJ, what with it being 14 weeks since my last update. My apologies, I am reading my LJ daily, I've just not had anything I've really thought was worth updating with ( Read more... )

So that big project I was freaking out about? After one full month of dedication and sweat, lots of hours cursing a statistical program with all of the user friendliness of a colicky monkey with the bends, and countless pleas for help, it is done. The project is now finally done and ready for me to turn in. God how I wish the fact that it was done ( Read more... )

I need help, is anyone out there familiar wist SAS (Statistical Analysis Software)? I have to use it to do a project for my Econometrics class and I can't figure it out for the life of me. If anyone out there can help me with this over the weekend I would be eternally grateful. Sadly I seem to have exhausted my lines of inquiry here. No one in the ( Read more... )

School is back in session... just seemed like.. days ago I was in summer classes... dammit... Oh well. I am happy though that the semester from hell does not seem to be turning out that bad. I am taking 21 credit hours and 15 of that is either calculus or statistics, but this actually seems like it will work out in my favour (except for the small ( Read more... )

So, Origins rocked... pretty hard. It started off kinda sucky cause I had no monies for which to buy things, but that was okay cause there wasn't much that I wanted anyway. We got a room connected directly to the main Convention Center which was awesome because I could go and shower/ crash/ whatever whenever I needed. We got there around noon ( Read more... )

Summer school has been kicking my little furry tail. It's awesome that I'm going to get these classes out of the way really fast, but damn if they don't throw the book at you. Oi ( Read more... )

Okay, I know I haven't updated much in a while. This is mostly due to my life being pretty boring all things considered. However, one interesting thing has happened to me recently, I wrote a short story. I just woke up, sat down and out it flowed not a week ago. I'm not certain I like it, but it's the first real writing I've done in a long time, ( Read more... )

So I just spent Wednesday and Thursday helping run the Symposium on Democracy on campus. This was a big academic symposium with scholars from around the country coming to present their papers on the Democratic Peace Theory, which is a theory that states that Democracies don't got to war with each other. It was awesome. The papers were pretty ( Read more... )

So I'm walking along on campus, it's raining and cold and so I'm hurrying along, enjoying the rain but hating the cold. And I hear this chirping. This.. kinda weirdly desperate chirping. And so I look around and I look up just in time to see a little nest built into an exhaust vent on one of the dorms disintegrate under the force of the exhaust ( Read more... )
