Update #38

School has been going reasonably well lately. Nothing to bad has happened. I actually got an extension on a paper for one of my classes. Which was good because when I was originally going to do it I got sick. Other than that I haven't been up to too much. I went to an improv comedy show on Saturday that was pretty good. I had seen the group 2 times before then so I knew I would like it. I also had another climbing lesson. This time it was through the club. It was on basic climbing technique. I was happy that over the last year I have picked most of them up on my own. It was good to get a refresher on the basics though.

Update# 37

I am finally lead climb certified. I took a lesson and got certified a few weeks ago. its a different kind of climbing that I have wanted to do for months. The climbing club is not back in full swing. the club has grown very fast and is continuing to grow. It was started last spring and continued this fall and how has over 50 active members and new people every day. The club goes three days a week. I go to each of those days.

Last week there was a bouldering competition. It was pretty fun. I didn't place, however there are now a ton of new bouldering routes up that I want to try.

Other than that I have been doing pretty well in classes. I have somewhat fixed my schedule so that I have more time to do homework at the right parts of the week. This is nice and I now don't have to always be doing homework. I get most of it done on weekends but I also have some time to do it on Monday and Tuesday now.

Work is going well. Since I am the lead programmer I'm dealing with a bunch of planning, management, and other kinds of things I have less time to actually work on the code myself. Its an odd feeling but I think its good experience to have.

Here is a video of me climbing yesterday. I campused the wall it (climbed it with no feet).
