Welcome to 2009!
I haven't really posted in here... so you've noticed, I'm sure. Alot going on around here, in college now at RPI, second semester just began, should start coming back here, have had alot of long chats in my head that i want archived, but will work on that some other time; while I know that if I start writing here I will put loads, I sort of want to do part of the physics homework so I feel less guilty about skipping the help sessions and leaving some unanswered last time, and so to placehold I will just provide a list of the currently open tabs in Firefox I have for your browsing pleasure (and procrastinatory stimulation).
And, with the exception of this window, so it follows:
Facebook, video of Nancy singing the National Anthem in 8th grade
Facebook, Nancy's note highlighting workplace harassment
Undercity, a website about tunneling and urban exploration
Youtube - "Hot ice" - aqueous sodium acetate, crystallizes nearly instantly
Youtube - "supercooled water" - how to make ice
Youtube - "burning green laser" - how to 'overclock' one

And as for other stuff I'm distracted with... IMing nancy, brian, ryan... reading/looking over phys2 homework, having chem notes open for the quiz tomorrow, skimming my first character sheet, digging through old pictures, not yet showering, and eating M&Ms. And who said men can't multitask? >_>
Ok, off till later. Byes!
