Invierno Break, Part 1
So I've been neglecting this for how many days...the joys of being on dialup.
*My grades have now all come out. They actually didn't come down as badly as I thought they would, with physics bottoming out at a C (I was shocked by this one since I didn't think it was possible), and my meteorology lecture garnered an A+. Everything else went somewhere in between, so I'll let you guys guess what that means.
*Unfortunately for my roommate, he is not going to be coming back next semester. His grades apparently didn't pan out too well. I won't mention any more because I don't know who reads this, and even though his name isn't mentioned, I want to be safe not sorry (Bean's secrecy in Ender's Shadow and Shadow of the Hegemon have gotten to me I guess).
*Shadow of the Hegemon is an excellent book, and while I still like Ender's Shadow better, it still has a lot of emotions in it. Now I can't wait for the next one by Card to come out in that sequence!
*I guess I get to spend some time making my website more accessible over break. Black text on a heavy brown background was probably asking for trouble, and it sort of irritates me that the original designer chose that color. If there's one thing we learn in web design, it's that you never use a dark color background on a page that can be printed. The RGB value for that background is A46667, or for the hexadecimally less inclined--164 red, 102 green, 103 blue. It turns out to be quite dark, and on monitors lacking in millions of colors (the common RGB system is 24 bit color which is not universally supported) it seems to be darker.
I hear that there's a sale at the place that Soopy-kun works tomorrow. I bet he's going to be happy (see his blog to see what I mean).
Well time for me to continue to be sick.
