Great mini web-app that aids in color based stuff. Get the specific name for that hex number or vice versa.

Lifehacker Top 10 Back to School Tools for the Organized Student
Great list that’s at least worth a look through.

Software for Starving Students
Absolutely fantastic list of free/open source software for any person. Definitely worth the input on my *amazing* site. [Note: It’s not just a list of programs. The file that you download will be a close to 600 MB file that’s either an .iso or .dmg file [Windows or Mac respectivel] Click on this link for instructions on how to burn it onto a CD or if you know me personally, contact me so I can burn the disc for you]

Just another article stating how taking a walk [even if it’s just a short walk] can be beneficial. But it’s a nice article nonetheless.

iLEVL
For the first time, I’m highlighting an actual “thing” that is on the web for purchase. This is the iLEVL. It’s a simple concept that turns out to be extremely useful. Using the magnet on the side of the iMac, iLEVL will hold up documents for easy viewing for duplicating, revising [comments on a hard copy that would be transfered for the final draft], or simply for viewing right next to your iMac. Interesting concept, product currently not for sale yet?

Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey. Stuff.

So I saw that Doctor Who episode. Freakin’ awesome [and horrifying] stuff. *ahem* anyway.

Psych: This class is slowly getting more interesting [it helps that I’m getting less sleepy in this class]. Yesterday we finally got One Flew Over a Cuckoo’s Nest and started reading it. It’s an interesting read. Today we went into the Psych textbooks and started learning about the nervous system.

Astronomy: Still boring as ever. I tried to answer a few questions today, meh. Still slept for a few minutes too.

English: Wrath of Rosenburg! Sucks I can’t get a letter of recommendation from her… time to get one from Sukaly then. OaFK is a good read, I like it.

Latin: Blaaahhh what a bore. If I could, I would totally go to sleep [in Astronomy too, but that was obvious]. We’re learning nooooothing. We had to do a word search today… wow.

Activities meeting today wasn’t that bad. There was a billion people there :O  We worked on some Homecoming hallway stuff. Gave my information to Mrs. Young for a letter of recommendation. Mr. Sukaly came in and insulted me :P

Got home, did some homework, got more into the band girugamesh [gilgamesh] by downloading their album off of iTunes.  Talked to Brittany for a bit before she had to go. Afterwards I ate dinner, played piano [I’m 99% done Suteki Da Ne. Just have to clean up the ending a tiny bit and I’m done], and talked to SK.

Blah. so freakin’ tired.

Don’t Blink or you’re dead!

That’s right. I’ll get you with my ninja-ness if you blink. [apparently the real meaning is in a Doctor Who episode… but I like my meaning better]

Aight. Let’s get right into it.

1st Period: So first period is Psychology with Schram. It’s a fun class. I’m there with Rob C., Jing Y., and their friends and Razie just transfered to our class just the other day. We got a project to do. We’re not done. Now they’re relying on ME to do it. Great. Me.

2nd Period: Second period is Astronomy and Ok. by far this is the most boring and uncool class. Jackie and Michelle are in the class, but they don’t help in entertainment. I’m half asleep in that class anyway so meh.

3rd Period: English is next and it’s sooo meh. I mean, it’s Rosenburg AGAIN. Plus 2nd lunch. First lunch pl0x. We read an abridged version of Beowulf [awesome read] and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. I totally want to read the full version now.

4th Period: Finally we have Latin. At first I was quite meh with the choice, but I think it’s all right now. Sure, we had a sub all the way until now and learned nothing. but still.

Activities: So far I’ve attended zero meetings [I hope I didn’t miss any…] I think there’s an SGA meeting next week [or last week x-x] and I don’t know when the Sr. Activities meeting is. We are currently Newspaper Advisor-less so I’m sad :( There goes my Editor-in-chief status!!! *cry cry cry* That was going to be my only deal of faaaame in this school. *cry* Maybe I’ll challenge Josh for Editor-in-Chief for Lit Mag haha. Can’t go to the car wash tomorrow ’cause of work D:

Social Life: N/A Er. I mean. On Wednesday, SB/SK/VT I mean, and I decided to hang out. SB and I went to Best Buy for a little bit so check some stuff out.  I went and fiiiiiiinally got the new iPod Nano. Niiiice. 8GB Silver? Yes? It’s quite pretty. It’s already been outfitted with Flea Market Montgomery [video] and Chocolate Rain [Music + 8Bit remix] as well as many flavors of freezepop. We went to SK’s and played some Dynasty Warriors: Gundam and Internet’d.

Yesterday, Josh and SK came over to film more of Raw Disorder. We managed to film two scenes and waited for Royce to NOT come… It was then that the three of us decided to form a rokk band, er I mean. Perform a song. It took a while to find what song and much singing to decide to perform Weird Al’s You’re Pitiful. We got food and watched Monty Python’s Flying Circus.

Today, was quite a bore [at least so far]. Woke up, felt horrrrible [except not really]. Ate, Internetted, read a little bit, slept for 2 hours, talked to Brittany, went college searching, had dinner, showered, played a lot of piano today, sort of learned how to play tabs on the guitar, and. had ice cream :)

All right. Time for me to stay up forever before waking up at 8 something to go to work :D
