Oh my word!

I haven't been here since OCTOBER! Here's an update:

I run the camps at the studio. I basically run the face? front-end? whatever you call the public part of the studio. Talking to parents, registration, and paychecks ^.^ I am going to college in a few weeks. Fun stuff. Ready to learn Calc 3 and Intro to Computer Science. I will be a stage tech! And I play Dungeons and Dragons. Yes, quite nerdy. And oh so fun.

I wasn't sure what else to blog about so I decided to grab that old list and let you know what's happened since then.

1. Get my bot working on this mac... then maybe on the server... (etc)

My bot works on the server and is always online now :D And it's liked. Thing is we got our own slice. No more other host to worry about! The parsing problem is gone, not sure how it got fixed though since it's been gone for a while. Just recently brought the bot in after a long downtime which was the cause of some personal frustrations. I'm thinking of making a website for the bot. That would have more content than my own XD

2. Clean up the wires behind the studio computer... (etc)

Well we got fios... might try this again. The last week before schools start we cancelled classes for parents to register. I will be there doing all the work, but there will be times where nobody comes in and I will find boredom. So I will clean!

3. Somehow be able to stream on livestream straight from my computer's DVD drive.

The thing I did with Wizard of Oz worked, but I'm currently installing Ubuntu on the other computer as I type, which doesn't support Livestream (or rather vice versa)

4. Learn Python?

I'm glad I know and use Ruby, but I also know enough about Python to use it if I have to. I went to Pycon and it was quite enjoyable, though Atlanta gave a bad impression. I even understood the intermediate/advanced tutorial to a degree. It was kind of fast paced. The people next to me got lost.

5. Transfer all my files to the mac and set up everything like I had before, like that popping noise my IRC client makes when I'm pinged.

Haven't touched my old laptop in over a year, so I am installing Ubuntu and going to use it as my only-there-to-be-a-second-laptop-and-play laptop.

6. Update website.

Project for the future still. Going to completely revamp, like I did the studio site. BTW the studio site looks amazing! For mine, I'm totally getting rid of the dark purple and making it more professional looking. Using ColourLovers to come up with a CSS design. I had one but decided it would be best for the bot's website if I make it.

7. Bike as much as possible.

Ha. Ha ha. Bike? Please. I'm too tired after work to bike.

8. Choreograph a dance.

I've made enough dances this summer, I'm almost sick of it. Even though they're for 7-year-olds. I'm just so tuckered out all the time from running around with kids then staying up late because I can't sleep then being tired the next day but still running around and... why can't I sleep at night? Why must I be so sleepy during the day?

9. Go college shopping.

I know where I'm going. Community college. Already applied, accepted, decided major. Just need to sign up for classes, which start in 3 weeks.

10. Get my license.

Got it in April I believe. First try! Won't have a full license (not provisional) until mid-September if I know the law right.

11. Go to Carowinds in NC/SC.

Need a little burst of freedom, energy, and time to travel somewhere nice...




Clean up basement and somehow make it livable.
Not happened yet. Not even progress. I'm in Community College but just living in my room.

Get my license.
Done and done.

Get comfortable with photo equipment and setup website.
Also done.

Find a new server host and re-setup websites and bot.
And done!

Try out chroma key.
Haven't tried yet and actually forgot I was planning on doing this. Not had too much time lately to work on my projects (like the basement) but will have more time once school starts hopefully.

Take SATs.
Wow, I wrote this a long time ago. I got a 710 in math, yay.
