In which there are a lot of random things.

  1. MESA!
    Had my Chinese oral final on Tuesday and had my Chinese written final on Thursday, so officially done with Mesa for the semester! \o/ The oral wasn't too bad, but I keep getting corrected on my second tone because apparently I don't go up all the way. x_x The written final was okay too, but the professor made it super tricky! The worst question had to be on the first reading comprehension section. The narrative was about a guy who lives in America and works in America (at his house and his dad's house) and in China. It went something like, "On Mondays and Thursdays, Wang Peng works at home. On Thursdays and Sundays, he works at his dad's house. On Wednesdays and Saturdays, he works in China." and it also said the times he goes to work. (On two of the days, he goes to work at 6AM; on two days, he goes to work at 11:15AM; on two days, he goes to work at 3PM. Then the last question of the section was like, "Which days should Wang Peng's girlfriend go to his house if she wants to dance with him in the mornings?"

    Seriously? How do you answer this correctly?!

    I decided she could definitely go on Tuesday, since he doesn't work that day. Then I decided that on the days that he works in the afternoons, she could go over too. And I decided that 11:15AM was late enough that it doesn't count as morning. But then I eliminated the two days that he works in China, even though one of them could have fit into the morning criteria, because I was thinking, "He has to travel to China! He won't be home in the morning!" but really, he works in China on two random days that aren't even consecutive, so maybe the professor doesn't expect logic to apply! So ridiculous! x_x


  2. WORK!
    This upcoming week will be ONE MONTH since I started working! \o/ So weird, LOL! I haven't really talked about work here, but I like my job. It's not really hard and I enjoy the people I work with, so it's good. =) The bosses want to move to an office before their kids get out of school for summer, but I dunno if we'll even be able to do that since they haven't even found office space for us yet. (I think I mentioned it before, but just in case I didn't, we're currently working out of their house, lol.)


  3. AVENGERS
    Finally went to watch Avengers today with [personal profile] aznearthdragon and the brother! Pretty much everyone has watched it already, but we were holding off until we were done with Mesa to go. Anyway, it was pretty awesome! ♥


  4. VELLUM / BOOKSHELF!
    So late, but I finally added my Vellum project to my online portfolio today! Seriously, I am a ridiculous person, LOL. I mean, I told myself I would add it after I took pictures of it, but yeah... I took pictures of the bookshelf back in JULY last year and now, TEN MONTHS LATER, I finally get around to photoshopping the photos I took and uploading them to my website. *sweatdrop* Total fail, lololol. Anyway, here are some actual NICE pictures of my bookshelf!

    My bookshelf!My bookshelf!My bookshelf!My bookshelf!

    Please ignore the book selection, LOL. I mean, I wanted a bunch of different sized books, especially really tall ones for the tall sections, but I was limited to the books I had with me when I went to take photos. So, you know, random architecture books I had, a bunch of Arch Record magazines, and some of the books I read or was reading at the time, LOL. XP Still amazed that I actually built this thing from scratch all by myself! @_@ (And now it is sitting in my garage at home because there isn't really any space to put it in the house, LOL.)

Oh wow, that is a really cool bookshelf! How long did it take for you to make?

Nice! Have you thought about making a smaller version of it?

Lovely bookshelf! In addition to holding books, it could function as an excellent cat playground.
