Update #34

So school has started again. I'm about to start week 3. It is going pretty well. I am getting too much CORE reading in my opinion. I get over a hundred pages a week which is really pulling me away from my major work a bit too much. but the classes themselves are pretty good.

I've also opted to see if I can mentor this year. it is a program that they are getting going for my major to have the underclassmen get help from the upperclassmen. I am also going to the Wednesday C++ II class to help out there. So that is something I am working on this year.

I also am working at the EMC as the lead programmer for the UN project there. Its really fun. I was talking with people today about it. It is one of those jobs that you have fun at. people always say that you should find a job you like. for me this is that job. I find myself randomly thinking about it during the day thinking about what needs to get done. So I am really lucky to be there.

I have continued to climb multiple times a week. It keeps me in shape and gives me something to do. I'm still slowly getting better I am able to get some V5s now. I have started to try and get a 5.12- climbing but I'm getting stuck at one point and I don't think I'm going to get past it any time soon. considering it is above what I normally climb at by a lot I'm not surprised I can't get it but it is something to aim for.

Today I got down to Dobra tea for the first time in a few months. It was pretty nice to have the time to do that. in the last 2 days the internet at my dorm has been horrible. it was down for 36 hours and after that the strength since then has been weak at best. Other than that I haven't been up to too much. work, class, homework, climbing is where I am at right now. Hopefully I'll find something to mix it up eventually. but for now finding a homework rut I can get into will be good.
