Camera Down

Ech, using the school computer to update the blog since I can browse, but not type anything on my laptop.

On top of the bust laptop and creepy phone, I recently found out that somebody extracted the removable battery on my camera. This hits kind of hard since, while I've got kind of an uneasy alliance with my laptop and phone, I actually really like my camera. And my camera stopped working out of no fault of its own, unlike my laptop and phone. At any rate, I feel like I'm losing all my tech.

I can't extract images from my phone's camera because the SD card is nigh impossible to take out, and the phone camera very quickly shuts itself down. If I want to take a picture of something, I have to use a Nintendo 3DS. Bah.

We've had a couple of really hard frosts recently. I was wearing a jacket two days ago. My sunflowers, beans, and squash are still coming in hearty, but I'm not feeling good about the tomatoes. My flowers are coming in fine.

Did I ever tell you I wound up with a sixth roommate? That puts us up to seven, which means we're at full capacity. Five-two gender ratio girl-guy. That means that it's the opposite of the past two generations of roommates I've had, which was always five guys and two girls (although last summer we had a two girl-one guy, and a two girl-two guy dynamic).

I also don't think I mentioned having run an information session for my mother's career counseling program, for anyone interested in Human Services Foundation, Social Service Worker, residence and student housing, and working for Student Life.

Today I appeared on camera to be used for promotional material for Student Life. They had me talk on my experience with the Connect Workshop I did almost three years ago.

I won that School Spirit award in class, and it looks like I've held onto it for awhile after-the-fact, with the video, information session, and that school tour I helped out with.

Looks like I'll be one of only two returning staff for Summer Program this year.

I tried to make that old post from 2009 to be not the primary link on Google to my blog. I tried editing my name out of the post, but my post, name included, still shows up as the first hit, with the name extracted only once its been clicked. 2009 wasn't exactly my prime year, I'd much rather be judged on recent events. Oh well.
