The Computer Lab

One of the joys of being an engineering student is the consistent attendance of the computer lab, located in the talmage building. Each day I am in here working on a program for my computer systems class, and each day I am pleasantly surprised to find out how interesting people are.

Example 1: I asked a fellow student what a certain device was used for. His response "A death ray!!!"

Example 2: Right now there is a girl hiccuping every 5 seconds, and its getting a little out of hand.

Example 3: Cute girl walks in. Engineering student who has an internship at PlayStation next summer says "Are you in this class?!" to which she gives him a very serious glare "Yes". He then says "Wow, you don't look like you would be in this class" as he adjusts his glasses.

I was laughing for a long time after that.

It always gets interesting here in the Windows lab of the Talmage building. I will keep you posted, as I'm sure crazy and quirky moments are looming on the horizon.

Wednesdays


You know what happens every Wednesday? Well first, country swing dancing at the REC. Holy cow that is fun. But even cooler.... new missionaries arrive. Every Wednesday floods of cars pour in to the MTC lot to drop off the new Elders and Sisters. As I was walking to work today, I realized how exactly two years ago I was one of them. The only thing that is different is time. Time is the only thing that separates us. I have been on this earth for 2 years longer than those new elders and sisters, but in those two years I did things that have changed who I am and who I will become. I had the realization today of how valuable time really is. If in two years I became who I am today, what will I be like in 5? 10? 50? What are you doing with your time?
