The Google & Juliet

Today was another good day. Haha. This morning I found out that one of my old contacts had somehow managed to hide inside my contact case because when I went to put my contacts on my left eye burned. I got it all fixed though, so no big deal. Haha.

I fell asleep on the bus again, this time listening to The Protomen. Upon arriving in our classroom, I was excited to see that I was sitting next to Kasra and Brittany. I set my stuff down and ran over to the cafe Alley. I got me some breakfast items (eggs, fruits, veggie sausage, you know the drill) and sat down at a table with... I don't happen to remember the exact people who were at the table, but they were awesome. While eating Sam and Brittany did a "rap" about Kofi, which was hilarious.

When we neared the end of breakfast Kat came over and sat down at our table. We got to talk some more, and I'm really glad over the past two days I've gotten to know her better, even if I wish it had happened sooner. She's really funny, and very easy to get along with. To anyone who doesn't know Kat, Carolyn or Jessica you are missing out on getting to know some of the coolest people to ever grace this planet. Carolyn is one of the nicest people you will ever meet, and just being in the same room as her can make you feel happier. Jessica is like the mother figure, but the really awesome mother that you're friends with. She's always making sure we're taken care of, and has probably put more time into the planning and execution of this week than I can imagine.

We didn't really have a class today, we just had group work all day. Linda, Brittany and I got a lot done during our endless hours of programming. I really do love this stuff. It's so frustrating writing code, and then having it not work because of little errors here and there, but once you get it to work it's really relieving. During one of the morning sessions, I opened up Pandora and it went all voodoo on me. It started playing The Protomen, which freaked me out, because I was still at the home page for Pandora, and had just plugged my headphones into the computer. What was even creepier was that I was listening to them on the bus, and it was the exact same song.

Later on I started playing with time in my program, and got the error message "... is not callable." I was confused by that so I looked over to Kasra, and asked him "Ok, I can fix this, but what does Cahlible mean?" Kasra looked at my screen for a second before looking at me with that "REALLY?" face and saying, "It says callable William." Those were the only really funny things from the morning.

For lunch I rode over to main campus with Christian so he could look at the Google Store. We spent the full hour looking in the store. He got a YouTube outfit, and I bailed Linda out. Dern blueness. When we got back to Crittenden I ran over to the LunchBox, and made myself a sandwich. Before I went over, I had popped into the classroom and Kasra told me how I missed build your own sandwich, and them making a sandwich for you. Jessica piped in, showing off how she's been reading my blog, telling Kasra how Monday I had gotten a turkey sandwich on sourdough bread, with cheddar cheese. =D

After lunch, Linda had a bunch of questions, and so she kept asking Charles for help with her program. Charles was baffled at how she could understand her program. Linda had taken and defined  the functions h(), hh(), hhh(), h2(), and h3(). She has variables named xen and "apples" which make her whole program incapable of following unless you are her. When Linda said she fixed her mistake, Charles said, "I am impressed by your ability to track what's going on in that program. I myself am defeated by that program. I feel as though that program is hanging on by it's fingernails."

For Dinner I went to PIC with the usual gang and ate outside with some of the BOLDers. Johanna was with them, and we got to talk to her for a bit. She was wearing an awesome Star Wars shirt, and was telling us how boys shirts and swim trunks are awesome. Haha. There wasn't a lot more that happened until we got back to the dorms.

A lot of us decided we were going to play Ultimate Frisbee again. Emily didn't come out, so we yelled and got Mario to get her attention. She came to the window and opened it up. I was standing on a block of stone, and as soon as she opened her window I said, "But soft! What light through yonder window breaks? It is the East, and Juliet is the sun. Arise fair sun and kill the envious moon who is already sick and pale with grief that thou her maid art far more fair than she." (I haven't quoted that since 9th grade ish!)

We played 2 games of Ultimate Frisbee. Both times my team lost, but both times we were awesome. The second game was everyone versus Kofi, Izzy, and Emily. They beat us, even with the three of them to the seven of us. Haha. When we finished the second game Enrique, Lynn, Christian and I went for a run around the dorm. Lynn and I stopped after the second lap. When I got back I talked to Chels on AIM for a bit before taking a shower.

After the shower, I headed over to Emily's room for a blog party. Lynn was there, and then Christian, and Enrique came over as well. After a bit Michelle joined the fun as well. While here, Christian has popped 2 bags of popcorn, and I totally blanked on the other stuff I was going to put in here. I must say, however, that it is a cruel joke to have us all write about the other people here. It isn't easy having to try and put down all the feelings and emotions that you have for each other on a piece of paper. The people at this camp are way too awesome, and just thinking about having to leave them is horridly saddening. But, to keep me from crying, haha, I'm going to leave you on a happy note.

"I don't even like penguins that much, it's just that everyone keeps saying it" ^_^ - Michelle

Haha! Happy Reading I hope!

Till Next Time!
