Class after Spring Break

It felt pretty weird being in class today after not being there for like a month.  We talked about what people did for the randomness assignment and they showed it if they had something to show.  I thought the DDR impression was really cool how he tied in the whole seeing sideways literally into the game.  That was about the only one that really stuck out to me as I can't really remember the others.  I thought the second half of class was really cool.  I was a skeptic at first but I think it turned out really well.  It's amazing how one idea can really get everyone going as far as adding on to each others ideas.  I think the best thing we did was get like 5 people in the group in order to get every ones minds together to get something.  I think our NUVO bobble head turned out really well and got a lot of weird looks from the law students so that was a plus.

The Idea Assignment

I read this assignment the Friday I left for spring break. Obviously since I am just now doing this, I was not able to do the assignment. I think if I absolutely wanted to get the assignment done I could've but I just have this rule on spring break that I don't look at a computer or even think about school. That was exactly what I did and it was amazing because we were busy the whole time in LA and San Diego. That may mean I don't get any points for this assignment but I would say it was worth it as I had the time of my life, and just took my mind off of work and school and it was great.

Class Response 7

Again I will be completely honest, today After my first classes, I just did not feel like going to another class after that. I was lazy today and didn't make it to class but I did accomplish other things I have planned on doing but hadn't gotten around to it. I got my grocery shopping done which I absolutely hate doing and I cleaned my room up from the mess that I created over the last week and weekend. Although I didn't make it to class I did accomplish a lot of things that I had been putting off. I do however plan on coming to the next class

Can I finish this Reading?

I am actually posting this as I am in the middle of the reading because honestly, I can't seem to get through it. I am seriously zoning out constantly during the reading. I do know that there are two brilliant people of their time questioning a lot of occurrences on earth, the universe, and existence. I don't know if other people do this, but when I am given a lengthy reading assignment, it is nearly impossible for me to get through it and understand whats going on because my mind is thinking about 10 things at once and I can't focus on the reading if I'm not totally interested in it. I also started wondering if this assignment was given as a way to see who actually would really read all of this! I will try to go back and get through some more of this but honestly I don't think I will finish it. I wish I was more interested in the subject but maybe once people explain it in class tomorrow I will have more interest in what the reading is trying to say.

Final Project?

So I have figured out that I kind of like some sort of guidelines when it comes to projects. The idea of being able to do anything is crazy to think about and all the possibilities out there. So I have come up with a few ideas, but nothing final thats for sure. I am going to LA for spring break and I figure this would be a great time for me to do something unique out there as other people probably won't be out there between now and the final project due date. I am not sure what I would do, but I plan on taking my video camera and digital camera with me so I would probably do something with that. I kind of want to just do something on my own time when I'm bored in Indiana so I may just end up doing something crazy around here. Ideas are going to keep coming up with me as I think about this so it may change day to day until I have something I really want to do.

Bliss Time

I very happy to see what our assignment was this week in that we could just take 3 hours to do whatever makes us happiest. I didn't have to worry about this, as I maybe to much time doing what makes me happiest instead of school and work. I would say going somewhere on vacation makes me the happiest but being a college student, this just wasn't possible to do in a weeks time with no money. I also love going to my lake in summer and doing stuff outside, but again the fact that I live in Indiana and it was freezing outside this took away any of that possibility. I decided I have the most fun on the weekend nights with my friends doing crazy stupid things. So even though these times last like 8 hours at a time, I'll just say this made me the happiest. It involved going to the bars and then continuing to drink back at my house with about 20 or 25 people. These nights make me love the college life and I realize this won't happen much longer as people start to get married or move away so I cherish the college weekends while I still can.
