My Easter break ended on Thursday. It was pretty stoopid.
Books What's your preference?

...or if you like eating at the Cheesecake Factory, which in fact does not only serve Cheescake.
The Cheesecake Factory does work on an interesting concept, though, essentially trying to be all things to all people. Burgers, steaks, salads, soups, baked goods, (pretend) mexican food, (pretend) chinese food, regional fare, seafood, soul food, (pretend) italian food, and everything in between. They won't be able to make you a Pud Med Ma-Muang Himapan, a roast duck green curry, or a stuffed with green, a side of carne, and a couple sopas, but they would like to pretend that they could. Whether any of it is worth a damn, I wouldn't know (having never been to one myself), but they do operate on an interesting theory.

I just got back last night from Vegas. I was there for a Robotics Regional. It was freaking awesome. I'll try and post some pictures when I get them sent to me.
Can you imagine if I was deranged?

When I was in HS, we had robotics, and now we do in college too . . . it's a pity it's only for AE students like me . . .

Or "artificial education" - he's going to become a teacher in a New Mexico high school.

I don't think I'll join the robotics, because of time constraint and, no offense, all the people in it are really nerdy at my school. I don't think it's the same with yours though.

It depends on how you define nerdy.
These guys are hard-core windows, anti-Mac, incapable of getting a girlfriend, lack a social life, probably entertain themselves often in more ways then one, and have high pitched voices (All male, too).

Grr!!!!!
*kicks Avatara in the shins repeatedly*I'm nowhere near New Mexico!
It's Aerospace Engineering, not Artificial Education. If you needed that pointed out, you should go back to grade school.
Swithich: Not yet, though I will be double majoring in math and Aerospace Engineering pretty soon.

That was actually more of a shot at Pufer than at you.

Sweet, I myself will probably double in Aero and Mechanical engineering. Two more months and I'm out of high school.

It's nice to see that someone is planning on taking longer than I am to get his bachelors.

Many of them already have, unfortunately.
