liberty
Mawworm (plural Mawworms)

cupcake
I'm too lazy to do anything daily, but I've decided to randomly and very occasionally post interesting words that I run into in my internet travels.

Today, an archaic word:
twyndyllyng (plural twyndyllyngs)

1. (obsolete) A twinling; twin.

It just sounds like fun, doesn't it? And I found it after reading about syzygy, which could have been the fun word of the day but is nowhere near as amusing.

It only took six months or so, but look! I finished something! (And took a lousy, badly lit picture of it!)


Not too big of a picture, but I'll save space anyway. )

Mwahaha!

cupcake
Ok. We're college students, theoretically, if we're reading the site this came from. Honestly, if you don't match the qualifications listed below, you probably don't realize that online courses exist.

{Copied directly from Camden County College's website}


Basic Computer and Internet Skills . . .
· Possess the ability to start, shutdown, and restart the computer.
· Navigate a window using a mouse to include pointing, clicking, and dragging.
· Utilize the parts of a window, such as the scroll bar, dialog boxes, and menus.
· Create folders, copy and move objects, save and open documents and files.
· Format, copy, and delete files to, or from a drive or diskette.
· Access the web through the use of an Internet browser.
· Use a web browser and Internet search engines.
· Download documents from the web.
· Use email and send or access email attachments.
· Download and install auxiliary programs such as "Real One Player".

And I understand that, especially now and especially at a community college, there are older people taking classes who didn't grow up using them in school. But they're probably not going the online course. At least, for their own sanity, I hope they're not.

Go here:

and vote to name the newest node of the International Space Station after our favorite Firefly!

You can vote once every day...



Thus spoke my friend Amy. And so, I pass it on. Because I'm amused.

cupcake
This was my old cell phone:

my baby.. RIP 1/6/09

After 7 years of faithful service (everywhere but my house, because we live in the black hole of cell reception), it finally died. *sniff*


This is the new one:

new phone

All sorts of fancy doodads I don't know how to work. Yay.

Really long URL



I haven't seen that in a while, but it's still horrifyingly amusing. Just picture being told to sight-read something like that :)

Got some time to kill? Wanna see some incredibly badly done (professional!) cakes?

The commentary is the best part.

cupcake
So I've only known all semester that this portfolio is due next Monday. Actually, I've known since the summer. And now that I have all of today and tomorrow to finish (I'll be away for the weekend), I'm sick and exhausted on top of it. I really need to stop doing this.
