Huzzah. Next semester scheduling.

My current (and likely final) schedule:

  • ANTH 045 – Anthropology 045, Cultural Anthropology. I'm mostly just taking it to get several general eds. out of the way. I have it Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 3:00 PM to 3:50 PM.

  • ASTRO 001 – Astronomy 001, Astronomical Universe. Once again, taking this course to fill a requirement for a general ed. requirement. I have it on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 2:00 PM to 2:50 PM.

  • CAS 100A – Effective Speech. It's just a speech course that everyone is required to take. Definitely looking forward to this class, given how much I hate public speaking. have it on Saturdays from 9:00 AM to 11:40 AM. Yeah... that's gonna be fun, but on the plus side it's off-campus, and closer to my house than the campus is.

  • MATH 140 – Math 140, Calculus with Analytic Geometry. I have to take this and another calculus course the following semester for my major. Having never taken calculus before, I'm hoping the coursework doesn't rape me. I have it Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 10:00 AM to 10:50 AM, as well as on Tuesdays from 9:25 AM to 10:40 AM. There were several of this one, but it's the only class that doesn't conflict with the rest of my schedule, so I had to do it. Sucks that it's so early.

  • CMPSCI 121 – Computer Science 121, Introduction to Programming Techniques. In all likelihood, this will be an extremely easy class, but it's a pre-requisite for all other comp. sci. courses, and a requirement for my major. I have it on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10:50 AM to 12:05 PM.


  • To sum it up: I'm going to have to get better at this whole "getting up before noon" thing.

Steam Sale.

Thanks to Gordon Freeman winning GameSpot's All Time Greatest Video Game Hero poll, all Half-Life games are 55.8% off on Steam for some unspecified amount of time (I'd imagine either this weekend or for the next week). If you've never played a Half-Life game, now might be a good time to look into getting one.

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band



Fantastic song, isn't it? He's certainly one of the greatest rock musicians of the 20th century. Ry Cooder is doing the slide guitar in this song. He's a fantastic blues-style slide guitarist, has released many albums of his own (I have one, and it's extremely good), and was ranked as the #8 greatest guitarist of all-time in Rolling Stone's 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.

All-in-all, excellent man and excellent band.
