Oh my gosh, a new post!
June 10th, 2010
Not having posted since the end of fall term, I have no idea if anyone checks this anymore. Obviously that’s not stopping me from posting.
So what’s happened since? Well, nothing really. I’ve done a lot of homework. Probably more these past two terms than at any point during my tenure at Eastern. And I’m sure it’s only going to get worse. Ah, fun.
Today was my last final for spring term. I had linear algebra, calc II and engineering programming. The last had us learning to program in C. For our final project we had to write a program that would accept a string of text, translate it into Morse Code, beam it via infrared light, receive the signal, display the morse print out and then translate it back to English. Daunting, but we got it done. Our professor took the video below (with his phone, so pardon the quality). There’s not much to see, but it gives you an idea of what we did.
Exciting, no? What is exciting is that I’ll be flying to Philly this summer for anyone who happens to be in the area. I arrive on 24 August and fly out again on 31 August. So one full week for all your Donald needs. I’ve forgotten what the humidity is like on that side of the country, so I may be dead part way into the week.
Anyway, that’s all I’ve got for now. Hols is flying in on Saturday and spending the week here (finally!), so I may have photos of that later on.
Be seeing you!
