Well I haven't posted in a while, so its time for an update. I wont go into things past because most of it is boring or kind of  weird (girls here can be pretty messed up)
But this week its Halloween! not that exciting but theres always lots of drunken people on campus, which is kind of fun to watch. So this last weekend I started building a blinking Mohawk (my hair is a few inches long now, more specifically its a row of LED's going into a f2013 micro controller which blinks them on and off in all kinds of cool patterns, and if you bob back and forth fast enough it displays subliminal messages, (like HEY!). But I didn't get that done for the weekend.
    The other thing that I have been building is the electronics subsystem for a pneumatic shifter for the formula SAE race cars here. So far it works, but my prototype system uses the same hardware as my mow hawk, so switching between the two is interesting.
    The race car project is pretty cool, they are basically really expensive go karts with full electronics systems and a 650cc motor on the back = really fun to drive.. So far I have driven once, and it is a blast, (you go really fast)
This weekend I worked on getting one of the older cars working, it has some electrical problems, mainly to do with the ignition, and tonight me and this girl Stephani got it running pretty smoothly. It went from backfiring half the time and shooting flames out of the exhaust to idling with no help at all from us! Never the less flames out the exhaust is a lot more fun! (we tried to get a picture, but it was hard to time the randomly occurring flames with the camera...) When I got home tonight I reeked of gas... glad no one was smoking around me.
The one thing i wish i had this weekend was a camera, some of the costumes were pretty crazy, and flames always make great pictures, especially when theres people standing right next to them.
One other thing, thank the weather for being nice, it was a really great change from the late trend of cloudy coldness.
and for those of you on campus some tips.
1. don't go to Bromley hall after midnight, especially on the weekends.
2. never, ever, ever, EVER, assume the obvious.
3. Grainger is open till 3 am, work that into your sleep schedule! (mine varies greatly, sometimes i sleep in the afternoon and do homework all night and then go to class the next morning. There's something about being around when no one else is.

And yeah, hope everyone else's lives are going great.... mine is.
