!calgary !college http://s16.postimage.org/wpm1njihx/2012_09_04_12_35_48.jpg Well, here we go again.
-
!calgary !college So I'm standing in line to get a transit pass sticker put on my student ID. But, for some reason, it's the same lineup for getting a brand new ID. I'd like to know who thought this was a good idea, because it's actually very inefficient. I spent less time in line to get Tara Strong's autograph at the expo.

!calgary !college http://s11.postimage.org/ixj5q2wir/2012_09_04_08_40_07.jpg First class to officially use the new lab. Looks pretty stylish.
-
@puzzlemint I'm sure you'll have it plenty broken in by the end of the semester.
-
-
!calgary !college Class starts in 20 minutes. I think I might actually try putting effort in this year. Coasting my way to straight A+'s just feels weird.
-
!college !calgary Just got my class schedule for next semester, which starts on september 4th. Friday looks ugly. 8-5 with only a 1-hour break at 1 pm. || Can't complain about thursday, though. 4 hours total, counting the 1 hour break. Everything else is average || Still miss 1st semester when we started late on mondays and left early on fridays.
-
!calgary !college Well, it doesn't look like anyone's going to post the marks for the actual exams anywhere, but my final grades are up, and as expected, I got an A+ in every course again.
-
!calgary !college Ahh, basic arithmetic, my arch-nemesis, we meet again. I spent 20 minutes stuck on the first question because I was trying to convert hours to seconds by multiplying instead of dividing. The rest of the test proceeded much more smoothly. The only question is, did I do well enough to land an A+, or do I have to settle for an A?
-
-
@puzzlemint Kick its flank!
-
@puzzlemint Good luck!
-
-
!calgary !college 45 minutes left 'til my stats final. Wish me luck; I'll need all I can get to stay awake. This course has been a complete waste of 60 hours. Our TEACHER said more than once that she could teach it in 5.
-
@pseudoartiste !calgary !college Nothing wrong with that. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. All the good grades I keep getting might sound impressive, but they're really just a side-effect of being in a program I'm naturally good at. || I never saw a single A+ when I was in high school. Hell, I never FINISHED high school. In order to get into this program I had to take English 30 for a third time, and not fail it. If I'd had to take Social Studies again, too, I probably wouldn't have gotten in. || With that said, STAT245 can certainly be a challenging course for people who aren't mathematically inclined. My main point was that it really, REALLY doesn't warrant 60 hours. I am not joking in the slightest when I say that my teacher kept having to remind herself to slow down in order to stretch the lessons out. On the plus side, she also kept showing us youtube videos of cool robots as filler.
-
@puzzlemint It's nice to find your niche, isn't it? I am kinda proud of my fail at maths. I've met very few artists who have any affinity for it.
-
@pseudoartiste It would be nicer if I could find work in my niche, but this will do as a temporary placeholder career.
-
-
!calgary !college T minus 15 mniutes 'till ELEC320, the final I'm least prepared for. Which is good. Set the bar low. I already passed all my courses, anyways. The finals are just there to pad my GPA.
-
@puzzlemint !calgary !college Well, I think that went okay. Now I have three hours to kill before my stats final, though.
-
-
!calgary !college So after leaving the electrical lab for the final time this year, having managed to avoid incident over two semesters. And then I somehow managed to electrocute myself while plugging in my phone charger. || I'm totally fine, but I've never been electrocuted before. My arm is kinda sore.
-
@colfax its kinda understandable when you work in a steel factory where every machine will brutality remove limbs or kill you. so I get plenty of excitement daily.
-
!calgary !college Aced Robotics, too. Which means I don't have to show up to any classes on thursday or friday. Rest of the finals don't start until next tuesday.
-
-
!calgary !college Well, I think I just aced the Projects final, including the rather weighty bonus. If that's true, then that would bring my current grade up to 100.27%. And I still haven't finished one of the labs. || I'm not going to finish it, either. I already have over 100%. I don't really need more %. Unless I can transfer it from my Projects mark to Mech, which I'm still a little shaky on. And by shaky, I mean I might only get an A, or even an A-.
-
!calgary !college So, now I have to figure out this monstrosity by myself, more or less from scratch. One of the inputs is analog, which we haven't learned at all. I may actually need to do some research and studying. Good thing there's a four-day weekend coming up. http://ur1.ca/8v3br
-
@puzzlemint It looks impressive...but what is it?
-
@vanillabelle It's a testing station. It tests the height of work pieces and either rejects them or sends them further down the line.
-
-
!calgary !college Well, apparently my last final overlaps with the first three hours of the Calgary Comics Expo. Thankfully, it's in AutoCAD, so it'll probably only take about ten minutes.
-
!calgary !college Durandal made it to the finals and came in second. And still, no one gets the name. http://ur1.ca/8ka0l

@puzzlemint As in Durandal the AI from the Marathon games?
-
@ceruleanspark Finally! Hooray!
-
@puzzlemint pretty sure its a sword from the final fantasy series..

yesssssss, a !college group...

!calgary !college Now all I have to do is program it. Oh, and draw the electrical and pneumatic schematics. http://ur1.ca/82j3i
-
!calgary !college Someone moved it from the side of the class to the front. http://ur1.ca/7z265
-
@puzzlemint The little drawing that could. I'm amused that it still floats around.
-
-
-
!calgary !college I don't know what's more disappointing; the fact that Durandal was knocked out during round 2, or the fact that not one single person understood the name. || In other news, we're building sumo robots in Electronics class. http://ur1.ca/7p6ym

@puzzlemint I vote you name it Derpymint. Or Puzzlederp.

@puzzlemint !Calgary looks like so much fun doing robotics. your not though makes me think it's a tonkatoy for some odd reason
-
-
!calgary !college MECH210 is an intesresting class. It consists primarily of me re-learning geometry and trig more or less from scratch. And also teaching myself physics from scratch. I think I've already done more studying for this course than I did for all of my courses combined last semester.
-
-
I see a loooooot of studying and revision in my near future. !calgary !college #anythingbutTrig
-
@puzzlemint Howdy puzzlemint. I've always liked your name
-
@puzzlemint hi-a! how you doin
-
-
!calgary !college Oh, hey, it's still there. Wonder how long it'll last. http://ur1.ca/7e926
-
!calgary !college Well, that was a decent first day of class. Then again, I only had two classes today. Might be a different story when Stats class starts up on Wednesday.
-
-
!calgary !college http://oat.nu/b6q9u Final grades are in. Can't rightly complain.
-
@puzzlemint Damn man, that is awesome! *victory hugs!* Kudos. I have been too scared to check mine.
