I've decided that Brian is just dominating PlanetHolt far too much.  Therefore I needed to reclaim some territory.  So this is just a general update on my life.

My schedule is finally set for the semester!  I'll be taking Physics 15a (Introductory classical mechanics and relativity), CS 50 (intro computer science class), English 182:  Science Fiction (core class where we read science fiction novels), and Lit and Arts C 70:  From the Hebrew Bible to Judaism, from the Old Testament to Christianity (which analyzes how Judaism and Christianity differently interpret the Old Testament).  Sci Fi and LAC should be fairly easy and not-time-consuming classes, which is good since both CS 50 and Physics 15 are notoriously time-consuming and difficult.

Our first CS 50 problem set was fun....we basically got to make whatever we wanted using a program called "Scratch" that is basically computer programming for people who don't know any programming languages.  My project (an RPG based on the life of a college student), can be accessed with the following link:

In addition to classes, coming back to school also means coming back to RCS (Radcliffe Choral Society), which is awesome!  We just had sing-ins for our "newies," which was the culmination of the weeks-long auditions process.  It's very strange to be an "oldie" in RCS but really fun and exciting to be on the other side of the sing-in process.

So...that's a pretty good update on what I've been up to.

So, for some reason I can only see this post when I'm not logged in?  What is that about?

I don’t know why you can only see your post when you’re not logged in, but I’ll try to look into it. I did play your video game, and won at life. So I’m relieved about that. It was pretty sweet.
