Week 3

Tuesday, March 25th, 2008 | RIT

As the title implies, it’s week 3 here at RIT. It’s chaotic as ever, but ultimately, it’s turning into a lot of fun. A quick breakdown of classes:

HCI1: Human Factors - A class about the psychology of human-computer interaction. Oddly enough, the professor is probably the least sane one I’ve had so far in my educational career. (Wait, let me think…yup.) As an example, he’s a musician.

Intro to Database - An intro to databases and SQL. I love this class. It makes sense to me, and I’m good at it. I’m thinking of switching my concentrations from Web Design/Interactive Media to Web Design/Database, but I’m not sure yet. We’ll see at the end of the course.

Interactive Digital Media - A course about Flash, animation, and game programming. This is probably the single most work-intensive course I’ve taken so far (except maybe Java III), but it’s fun.

Networking Fundamentals - Don’t get me started on this one. I have an Associate’s degree in Computer Networking. Why do I have to take this class?

Advanced Sabre Fencing - A reprieve from the rigors of academia into the rigors of precise, controlled physical activity. Hard as hell, but it’s a lot of fun playing with sharp, pointy sticks.

So far, this quarter is going great. My classes are cool, I have free time (sometimes, hehe), and the weather is finally starting to get warmer.

More updates to follow. ;-)

Hey Lee! Glad your week 3 is going well, mine is a lil busy at 20 credits but im managing heh.

Just wanted to let you know that feature you requested a while back is now live on TCBN. If you login and go to your control panel you can now update the thumbnail of your site if it is out of date. We’ll be posting about it on our blog later today, just wanted you to be the first to know ;).

Keep the suggestions coming! Thanks

Advanced Sabre Fencing!! Awesome!! Perfect for a college jedi. I still remember my doc/fencer days from SWG. That was a long time ago.

I’m glad you’re having a good quarter!
