Note: I am apparently a n00b, and didn’t actually publish the following post, which was written on May 25. Feel free to read it now.

Today I finished my last semester finals, which means that the school year is over for me! On to summer! I’m reasonably confident that I have a 4.0 GPA, but I’ll have to wait for the grades to be updated online before I’m positive. English is the only subject that I’m a bit worried about; the final was fairly hard. I had a 100 in the class beforehand, though, and while the final was hard, there weren’t too many portions that I actually think I got wrong. So I’m hopeful.

In other news: I have achieved my New Year’s Resolution of getting a new job! I’ve actually been sitting on this news for the past few months. I will be doing a robotics programming job over the summer. I just picked up the equipment needed for the job yesterday. The project I’m working on looks quite fun, but it’s confidential to my employer, so I can’t divulge the details. I expect that I’ll be able to freely discuss the project within a few months, although this is not based on any official word, so I won’t guarantee that.

Over the summer, I will also be working on a science fair project in collaboration with a couple friends from Botball. That project will be fun as well, and may even result in a YouTube posting after the science fair concludes.

I will also (finally) be taking driver’s ed., which is long overdue. Now if only I would stop having that recurring dream where I’m driving on a highway but I can’t get off at the exit….

In addition, my 18th birthday is this summer! Which means I can vote in the 2008 primary elections! (Vote for John Edwards!) Besides voting, it will also mean less parental interference (the details of which I won’t bore you with now)!

So, in short, my summer looks to be very fun and very busy. Yay!

EDIT: almost forgot to mention, the first issue of the Humanity is Doomed If These Idiots Don’t Shut Up Dept. was posted a week or so ago. Feel free to read my rant on why browser fanboys are losers.

After about 3 weeks of constant studying, I took the AP Calculus AB test today. I think I did pretty well, although there were about 5 minutes of panic as I frantically finished a free-response section, finally finishing with about 20 seconds remaining. I’m hoping for a 5/5.

Not much other news to speak of; only a few more weeks of school left, at which point I can begin my (hopefully fun) summer vacation.

I bet you’re all wondering, just what the heck happened to the site over the past month? Actually, you probably don’t care, but I’ll satisfy my ego and assume that it’s worth explaining.

I was on the Little Moon Productions server, which was owned by Tarqua (a friend of mine) and hosted by Host Rocket. Tarqua dumped Host Rocket in January in favor of Dreamhost, and registered a new domain for the new account (Looking Glass House). Unfortunately, Tarqua didn’t have time to set up my account on Looking Glass House until late April, which was unfortunately after the Host Rocket account expired on April 1 (luckily, I had a backup that was just a couple days old). The Looking Glass House account is now set up, and this hopefully will not be happening again.

Everything should be back to normal; there may be a few broken links in the old posts, but all the static pages’ links should be fixed. Any problems with the site, just e-mail or IM me.
