It is sooooooooo nice outside! *runs and frolics on the lawn* Not February weather at all, it’s over 70 here. I need to take pictures or something.
Sam is indeed a goodness. She’s been such a comfort this last week, when I needed it most. She totally lied, though, when she said she wasn’t a huggy person. Either that, or she makes an exception for me… but either way, can’t say I mind. I’m so hug-deprived here. Even pats on the back every once in awhile would be nice. But now it’s all good ^_^
I gave out half a dozen Valentines and got a few back, so I guess Singles Awareness Day was a success. However, the really exciting part of the day came this morning. I was just about to head off to physics class, but I had a few extra minutes so I went ahead and stopped by to schedule my advising appointment for fall ‘05 advising. I had to wait in line for the secretary to finish filling out the appointment book for another student, and some of the advisors sitting around started talking about how they wished they had a network calendar so they could all make changes to it and see everyone else’s schedules. Score! What did I just set up for myself and again for ZAP? Why yes, I can do that for you!
So I’m going to go in later and demo things for them, and probably set them up a WebDAV interface for calendar sharing! That should look good on my intracollege resume.
To-do this weekend: Get photos finished up and maybe sent off to Nate to turn into headers. Mmmbop.
My psych test was perhaps the easiest test I’ve taken since 7th grade. Give or take 2 years. Physics tomorrow doesn’t appear to be much harder. Me likes 
Boy, my housing situation just got a lot less certain. Apparently only freshmen will be allowed to live on campus next year.
This is nuts. Can you imagine dorms with only freshmen? Poor RAs. I know Melissa relied a lot on the upperclassmen to answer our questions because there was only one of her and we needed a lot of help. Not to mention that there are a LOT of upperclassmen to find housing for now!
OU wants us to move to apartments. Well I’m not 18, I couldn’t even sign my own lease. I like the dorms, there’s an instant community you can be a part of just by walking out your door. It’s relatively cheap. The bathrooms are cleaned and the trash is taken out. They’re quiet and clean.
I don’t see, really, how we can be told one thing when matriculating and then have such a drastic policy change the next year. Surely all existing students should be grandfathered into the old agreement. Bleh.
I talked to a reporter from the paper about how much this messed up my planning. The whole Honors community signed a petition asking to be allowed to stay. And I guess we’ll just see what happens next.
I better get to looking…
Tonight is a lonely night.
Synergy has to be the most amazing app I have ever seen. I’m writing this post on my laptop using my desktop keyboard and mouse. By setting up the desktop as a Synergy server, I can use its mouse and keyboard on EVERY computer connected to the network running Synergy.
This is magic. It’s like I’m using multiple desktops… but it’s multiple computers. This means I can have one screen running, say, Word in Windows, while the other is running Gimp in Linux. Then I can copy and paste between the two without ever changing mouses.
And it took like 2 minutes to set up. I am in awe.
Oh, this sentence was typed on the laptop keyboard. I don’t lose control of that keyboard either. *dances*
