Today was fun, I planned to go to Gaston College to pick up my diploma from fall and to go see Mr. Biggers’ new show. I ended up doing a lot more. First, stopped in to pick up my diploma. After looking at my ID, the kind gentleman in the registrar’s office dashed over to […]

It has been a while since any new screen shots of GITI’s Education module were released, so here is a quick look at some of the newer functionality.   A new menu guides the user into a never before seen world of managing their academic life. The same old class management page has gotten a […]

At times I am a really selfish person. There is an item that was dangled in front of me a few days ago and now that product is only available to a specific group of people. This upset me greatly and I went into a very selfish mood over it, which I suspect bothered some […]

Sigmund Freud, perhaps the most widely known and most criticized psychologist ever, is the subject of my Theories of Personality course next week. To me, Freud has always been a bit like the Einstein of psychology. His theories have yet to be disproven, even if they are a little strange. I am very excited about […]

I transmitted my latest transcript from CPCC to Gaston at the end of December, December 14th to be exact, and finally today the transfer of credit has appeared. I feel that the entire process has become over burdened and is not as efficient as it should be. CPCC and Gaston use the same common course […]

I am starting to wonder how my C# course (CSC 253) is going to function. First of all, my instructor, who is also the department chair, does not ever respond to my emails unless I send an email to my Computer Programming advisor and ask her to contact him for me, which always gets him […]

I have spent a great amount of time today trying to get a remote X-WIndow session on my Windows PCs (using CygWin) to my Ubuntu system. In WIndows I am used to starting a remote desktop connection and going right to my remote system. Things are a little more complicated at the moment in Ubuntu. […]

Staring at Beta 1 of Windows 7 I am also looking over GITI’s Education module and thinking about the comments I have been given recently about it. It would seem that while in general the assignment portion of the module is complete, except for a few process tweaks and a new feature for bulk edits. […]

This photo course (ART 288DH) is going to start off just like my other course, with an assignment involving stop-motion and blur. I remember really hating that assignment, there are so few things that move around me, my life is very static. Perhaps I should go out on some type of adventure and find motion. […]

I just discovered the term paper topic for my “Theories of Personality” class, and it is a bit of a shocker: “WHO ARE YOU and WHY DO YOU DO WHAT YOU DO?”. My first reaction to this is to run away from the topic screaming “I don’t want to know myself!” or some other overly […]
