Yeah, mmm, spent most of the afternoon doing homework. Kinda. And bought toothpaste. Then spent two hours doing set strike for THEA199. We were only required to stay for an hour. But while I wasn't getting paid, I got to see cool stuff, and play with almost as cool stuff. Such as the pressure based power-tool-on-sterioids. And their fly system. SoSOcool.

Yeah, thursday, friday, and saturday were taken by SELP- the Student Engineering Leadership Program. Much coolness, fun, and games, with a bit of learning about myself thrown in. Plus much good food (pizza, then a steakhouse. I had a 30 something dinner, as did most people. There were 50 kids. That's a lot of money. And the director of the program (Prof. Price) said told the waitress to throw in a 20% tip. O.o

Those metal weight things are HEAVY. And it's scary... I don't want to even try to imagine the amount of damage you might do if one accidentally slips off and falls down.

March.... um... either 18-19 (Late friday, or saturday). For a week, including parts of both weekends at both ends. Trying to get a flight back for the 27th (sunday) so I don't have to stay a night at my cousin's house and be a hassle.
