A minor break!

Busybusybusy. Or at least distracteddistracteddistracted. With my programming exam finished today, I finally remembered to set aside some time to write in here!

So... a bunch of stuff has happened. First off, some fantastic news! I got my math Exam back... with an A-! Boo ya! First A in college! Have a party! Go me! w00t! Etc.!

Yeah. So, I'm pretty solid now. Unless I TOTALLY blow up on the final, the combined grade between my math and programming will definitely hold me above a 2.5, saving my scholarship! And with luck and some studying, and a mild recovery of the ol' Physics grade, I could pull it up to a 3.0! The only thing dragging me down right now is that Physics grade... so, with nothing of huge importance until that exam next week... you know what I'll be doing! :D

So... two weekends ago, my high school had it's 2nd semester play, Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Hilarious. One of the better plays I've seen the school put on... (they've gotten better over the past few years, but nothing compares to last year's ;) ) The play itself is quite silly, and the good ol' actors there put on a jolly good show, If I do say so myself... inspired me to think about trying to find a play next fall to try. Maybe a one act or something. A comedy.

And this past weeked I had the joy of Warrior Weekend with ROTC! Back up to Alpena for a day and a half of intense training, drill, physical training, along with the added bonus of being taught how to use a compass and map for navigation. AND, of course, the primary reason I enjoy this particular base in Alpena... the MOUT (Movement Over Urban Terrain) course. Basically a mock up of a street for some urban combat training. We used Airsoft guns. SOOOOO fun. I really need to find somewhere to play on my own with some friends... fun, fun stuff.

So Warrior Weekend was pretty intense... I made some mistakes, learned from them, learned from other's mistakes... it was such an awesome learning experience, and it was pretty fun time. So... hua. It was pretty awesome.

Hopefully I'll write again without a 3 week wait!

Paul
