Second presentation done! Just one more to go and I'm done all my presentations for this semester! Just the finals and 401 paper to do =P and readings...
Anyways, I had some free time between my 401 seminar and 403 class since my brain just went into shut down mode (was working on my 401 paper...). I decided then to go visit the EEEL building that's outside of ICT.
All I can say is, that's it's soooo nice. I wish I was in first year again so I would be able to have my chemistry labs in that building!
Here are some pics of that place
So high tech!
Anyways, too lazy to post those songs... maybe Thursday? =P
Kinda feel empty without that game though... =(
Like the title says, just two more weeks of school for me! This week is the last week of instruction and next week will be my exams =P. That means, I have a lot of work to do this week... such as readings (almost caught up!), a paper (due next Friday, thank gosh) and two more presentations to go (Tomorrow is 401 and Wednesday is 403). I swear, once school is over. I'm going to spend my first week playing GAMES and rotting my brains out... to a certain extent of course.
Today was a typical Monday. Went to my educational psyc seminar to write my last response! Thank goodness. Those responses aren't the most fun thing in the world. =P After that, I had a quick group meeting for our 403 presentation. Time to find myself a toilet paper roll and make a microphone out of that =). As for 401's lecture today, we ended up designing a final exam question for "Teaching". Hopefully our question was alright...
And now I'm home working on homework. Oh joy... Well off to sleep soon since I have volunteering tomorrow morning!
As for today's picture of the day
A picture of a cubicle at Social Sciences (2nd floor). I sit here whenever I can't get a spot at the picnic tables. =( The book (Engaging Minds) is for 401 and that is my ol' trusty macbook pro. Despite having an iPhone and a Macbook Pro, I am not a hardcore Apple Fanboy. I enjoy using their products since they're easy to use, but I would not go out and buy all their latest goods since I simply cannot afford to replace my products year after year, after year...
As for today's 30 day song challenge: Day 30 (LAST ONE): my favorite song last year at this time.
Well I can't use Smile Again... so...
Jyongri - Maybe Someday
Couldn't find the MV for it =(. It was a decent MV I must say...
Anyways, I wanted to list all the songs I used for the 30 days, but I'm too tired to do it tonight, so I'll do it tomorrow night! Good Night World!
Started of my Sunday like any other Sunday. Went to karate to train and teach, but boy was I stiff today. I do not know why I was so tired today as well...
Anyways, after karate, I went home and got more readings done. Just the last chapter in EDUC 402 (long one it seems...) and a couple chapters for 404. Loads of work to do this week since its the week before my finals!
Besides readings, I helped my dad install a windshield heater for my mom's car. It was actually harder than I thought it would be, but we got the job done (or more like my dad did. I just stood there mostly holding the light for him =P)
Anyways, for today's picture of the day...
Honda Integra/ Acura RSX/ DC5, whatever you want to call it. I started to have respect for this car after a friend of mine bought his a couple years back. I never understood the hype with the RSX, but now I admit, its a pretty nice car for its price and what you can do to it is pretty amazing with a bit of elbow grease.
As for today's song of the day: a song from my childhood
Volunteering was quite interesting today. Near the end of my shift, I was playing Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring (J.S. Bach), when I noticed that a caretaker was listening to me play. After I finished playing, he asked me to play the song once again, in which I complied. After playing the song a second time, he asked if he could play a duet with me with his violin. At this time, another gentleman was listening to me and ask if he could join us with his guitar. So in the end, we had a little band going along at the corner of the west entrance of PLC. It wasn't a very smooth performance, but nonetheless, it was quite good for our first time!
Work was the same old, so nothing too exciting happened.
After work, I went home and finished reading chapter 10 of my Psyc textbook. Near the end, nothing was being absorbed, but I just wanted to say that I finished the chapter... so I trudged on. After doing my reading (for last week), I went ahead and watched the 4 TED talks for 401. I really enjoyed the classical music one, since I have some experience in Classical music myself!
Here is the classical music one! It's about 20 minutes long if you're interested in watching it! Zander has an interesting personality which made this talk engaging throughout the entire 20 minutes, for me anyways.
Anyways, no picture today! Too lazy =P
For the 30 day song challenge: a song that makes me feel guilty...
Sergei Prokofiev - Diabolical Suggestion
This was my... List D (?) for my ARCT... I wish I spent more time on this piece. I could play at around 80% speed of what the guy was playing, but it was all notes (and wrong notes at points!). I want to take this piece up again... but I CAN'T FIND MY SHEET MUSIC FOR IT =(
Another Friday! Started off this morning with my 404 presentation... the first quote for me was a gong show, but it got better by the third one =P
After coming home, I helped my dad change the winter tires on my mom's car =P. It should be ready for the winter now!
For dinner/bro night, we went to Sushi Ichiban to celebrate a bro's birthday! Here's a picture of Ikura (Salmon Roe) that I ate. Nobody else likes it since its so salty and fishy...
As for the 30 day song challenge: a song that I wish I could play
Volodo's version of Mozart's Turkish March. I was able to play about the 25% of the notes (4 pages out of the 13 i printed out). Mind you, its notes, not music...
So hard, especially near the end >.> Ah, maybe one day!
