MCTS: 70-536

I have just done something that makes me incredibly nervous. I have registered for Microsoft’s 70-536 certification exam. The English title is: “Microsoft .NET Framework – Application Development Foundation”. The exam is covering a lot of what I did in my C# Programming course and now in my Advanced C# Programming course. Under most circumstances […]

LMS Outages During Normal Semester

I am not entirely sure I understand the way that college and university IT departments justify their downtime. From the 8th of April until the 15th of April Gaston College is taking down their perfectly functioning Blackboard server to replace it with a “new” and “improved” version of Blackboard. We are a few weeks from […]

Simple Excitement

Friday night I ordered some bookmarks from Amazon, because I realized I only have one good bookmark, and I don’t like the picking up a random paper thing (I do that too much in books already). Anyway, I’ve been like tracking the package through UPS since it entered the system. I feel crazy because I […]

First IR Images

My IR pass filter arrived this morning. I have done a few subjects with it. Not much yet though, as it requires a lot of time to use this filter (like 15-30 seconds per frame). The wind today made these shots a little hard to get and thus, they are a little low in quality. […]

Psychological Procrastination

In 48 hours, on Sunday evening at around 11PM, I have a major psychology assignment due. I sometimes procrastinate on things, but not usually like this. I am afraid to do the assignment that I am procrastinating on. Remember that term paper I mentioned a few months ago? Its due. I do not like the […]

Distance Frustration

I am becoming frustrated with distance education, although I do not entirely know why. On the factual side of things, my credentials from other schools have not been evaluated at FSU yet (they were sent in February), the change of major process is going way too slowly for my liking (since it isn’t a real […]

Do you see in infrared?

Yesterday I made probably one of the silliest purchases that I have made in a long time, I bought an IR pass filter for my D60. I have no clue about infrared photography, so I suspect at the least it will be a fun learning experience. I have only seen infrared photos in the form […]

Opteka’s Camera “Case”

Now that my camera bag has been ordered (went with the Case Logic), I decided to see what other types of cases (non-backpack style) existed, perhaps for other purposes. I was surprised by this particular case. It is Opteka’s Hard Case. It is pretty cool in concept for protecting valuable hardware (and if I get […]

Fall 2009 Course Plan

I have been planning for my upcoming registration date for both Summer and Fall for a while now (just ask my advisor). My summer schedule has been previously discussed, and everything appears to be in order for that. There are some problems with my fall schedule though. Introduction to Clinical and Counselling Psychology [PSYC342] Introduction […]
