first week at Hofstra done

well, first week at Hofstra went pretty much without a hitch. one of classes is in this fairly new building with a lot of technological goodies.  Lecture halls either have network jacks or laptops at the desks while the professors have tablet pc’s connected to an overhead projector. pretty cool stuff.

my english professor, well… he’s unique, very flamboyant, the way he conducts himself is very victorian like, let’s just say guys are not allowed to wear hats in his class.

my stat professor is an old russian guy, well at least i think he’s russian.  anyway, he’s hard to hear, not because of his accent, which isn’t very thick, but because he can’t seem to project his voice all that well.  he seems to be fairly easy going, i guess only time can tell.

other professors are just like every other professor, no unique qualities or quirks to discuss.

that’s it for now for my first week.

more to come….


oohh snow

well i got what i wish for, got some snow this morning, and its snowing more right now with a threat of a bigger snow storm this weekend.

nothing much happened today, just helped my brother a bit in changing his clutch slave cylinder, posted Serli and Evan’s baby shower video on my website, and read some more of Angels and Demons. Turning out to be a real interesting book.

that’s all for tonight.


First post of the brand new year.



As you can see I moved my blog off of blogspot.com servers and moved it to my own server.



Its been really cold this past week here in NY, single digit temps, and only a coating of snow. A bit disappointed, I really like it when it snows. Like the world outside is nice and peaceful.



My new semester starts next Wednesday at Hofstra, a bit excited, I still need to get my parking sticker and ID card, talk about procrasination.


ahhhh….

took my last final at Nassau. Got a B+ in Novell Networking, and should find out the rest in a few days. next stop…Hofstra University.


holy chilly cold winds batman… its cold outside!


so far, this has been a good week.



got accepted into Hofstra University, based on my performance at Nassau Community College, despite my horrible grades from previous schools.



Had my traffic violations bureau hearing today, judge found me guilty for speeding, but didn’t suspend my license because of proof that I attended a defensive driving course and my need to drive to and from school. However, he imposed an “enhanced” fine of $125 plus a $50 surcharge.



Tomorrow Linette comes home for the Christmas and New Year’s. yay!!


Global Underground 026 Romania – James Lavelle and Bloom by Gabriel & Dresden are great albums, go get them if you can!


i hate coming home. i just hate it here.


Another Day Wasted.


OK, just posted pics up from my trip to St Kitts.

Had a lot of fun on that tiny island, when i say tiny, you can drive from when end of the island to the other in less than day.

Other than that, just the regular hub-bub with school and stuff. Only difference is that there seems to be so many more kids this semester.
