Critical Information Studies is exactly what I was looking for in a major when I began looking at American Studies.
I think I found what I was looking for, now to make it happen…

Everything is working again, but there are no upgrades…
I think the code I was working with is too buggy to try and get to work on this site, so I’ll do all the testing and tweaking on another site, and see if I get get it to work here after.
eh

So yay, I got to go boardin today.
Bromley, VT.

I got about 45 minutes of sleep before I got up at 5:30 to get ready to go. I’m sure thats healthy.
Santi was supposed to come with, but apparently he had gone to a casino in NY last night and got as much sleep as I did, so he bailed in favor of snooze.
Didn’t sleep for more than 10 mins on the way up, so needless to say I was in great shape to hit the slopes.

9ish we got on the mountain. Took the whole morning slow. Didn’t do anything crazy, but didn’t do anything fun either. The snow was harder than it ever has when I’ve been there before, so my edge was having trouble digging in.

After lunch, the sun had been out for a while, and more people had gone down the runs, so they were nice and soft, which was perfect.

Took another break two hours later, and once we got back on the trails, they had changed again. This time, all the good snow which had made my last time down so great had been pushed to the side, leaving the stuff I had in the beginning of the day. I found this out when I wiped out hard on Havok. I’m pretty sure I pulled something in my neck, and I know I heard my back crack (like knuckles, not like paralyze’d).

Got off the mountain around 3, ate dinner at the Student Prince in Springfield, and came back home. Thankfully, I slept most of the way back.

The problem is, I know I’m not going to get to sleep before 4 tonight. I’m gonna be so messed up for school.

Anywise, that was today, but what about tomorrow?

SHOPPING!!

Now, its rare I’m excited about shopping, but I’m going to Sam’s Club, where they sell Animal Crackers by the pound. I’m stocking up on snacks for my dorm room, which you can never, ever have enough of. If all goes well, I should be able to survive in my room without any outside contact for over a month.

UPDATE:
2lbs Cheerios
5lbs Animal Crackers
4.1lbs Goldfish
3lbs Pretzels
Heart Sam’s Club

This is mostly just a couple links I don’t want to lose.

If you’re a phan, you may understand each of those. If not, I don’t really care.

Spring Break - always a good thing.

This will actually mean more posts, but probably in the wee hours of the morning.
Like this one.

I really want to work on the Juan Way tour, but a lot of what I want to do needs to wait for me to get the bus, which is a ways off.
Plus, it seems most of the work I’ll be doing on it will be alone, which kind of sucks. Not that I’m really expecting anyone to be as passionate about this as I am.
A reason for that may be because its still my project, when it should really belong to everyone who is involved.

I think sometime this week I’ll make a map, with destinations, times, etc. That’d be a good start. I should do something about the site as well.
That won’t happen thhis week.

I think I need something to break the monotany. If I’m lucky, I’ll get a boardin trip to some mountain up north this week. That would do a good job.

Here is an idea I began to seriously consider this last week. It has been tossed around by several people in the past, but I normally dismissed it.

The idea is a blogging service which is totally anonymous. Possibly with users, who would have their own blogs, with the option to make a post totally anonymous. If I was to follow through with this, it would take place of the current somjuan.com. I’d also probably keep a blog with the normal kind of links I do right now(I don’t think I could just stop), but that wouldn’t be the main focus of the site.

I’d really like some feedback on this, and I may eventually make it into a poll.

Thats it for today.
