Tomorrow marks the end of Thanksgiving break. Dang.

I didn’t post much this week because I have a life and had other things to do. Don’t worry though, I’ll make it all up…

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Turkey Day everyone! I’m gonna go fill myself up with some turkey, some French bread…

What are you doing on the only day where it is socially-acceptable to pig out?

Apples!

I like apples. I don’t know if apples love me though. Wish apples could talk, then I’d just ask ‘em. Until the all-knowing gods give apples the ability to talk, I’ll just stick with eating them.

I finally made that tech blog I’d always wanted to run. It’s about…well…tech stuff. (Sidenote: have you noticed I like using the word, “stuff”?)

Star Trek: The Experience

Ryan — Wed, 25 Nov 2009 01:19:44 +0000

Ok, here’s the promised review of the Star Trek exhibit. I got this in late because I got sick and didn’t feel like blogging.

At my local Star Trek: The Experience exhibit, it was pure awesomeness. When you stepped into the hallway leading into the actual exhibit, there are pictures of ships and stuff in Star Trek. When you get into the actual place where they have all the props and stuff, it’s just breathtaking. Where I went, there was a model of the U.S.S Enterprise on display, and they had Type-1 and Type-2 Phasers there too. After you’re finished looking at the communicators, the phasers, and the costumes, you go into the next room. In the other room, you have the chance to sit in the Captain’s chair and pretend to be Kirk for a second. You can also play with all the other stuff on the HoloDeck. Then, you walk into a hallway of the U.S.S Enterprise. You have the chance to see more costumes and stand on a Transporter. After that, your journey is complete, and in the last room, you can see the entire Star Trek timeline, from the first adventure all the way up to the alternate universe (alternate universe = 2009 Star Trek movie). Oh, and then there’s a small gift shop and 2 flight simulators. One is a 2 person simulator that does flips and stuff, and then there’s the 8 person simulator for people that don’t like twisting and turning.

I felt horrible after going on the 2 person simulator. At least I got to drink apple juice.

Star Trek Exhibit

I’m going to the Star Trek exhibit at a museum today. My friends Charlie and Brandon are coming along too! I heard the exhibit is pretty cool, and it caught my attention when I saw the commercial for it on TV. Well, I put more about it after I come back from it. See ya later!

2009 FLL Tournament

Ryan — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 03:04:29 +0000

I just came back from Safeway. Before that, I was eating dinner. Before that, I was at the 2009 FIRST Lego League Qualifying Tournament.

At the tournament, you have to program a NXT Mindstorms robot to do certain missions that you pick. You also get scored on your teamwork, robot design, and project that has to be based on the theme. (By the way, this year’s theme was about safe ways to get to places. Basically, transportation.) On the practical part (the missions), we got 9th place out of 12. The good part? We were the first team in our region to finish a round on the red bridge. That was kinda cool.

We didn’t get any awards or anything, but all in all, it was fun. The red bridge thing was even more cool.

An addition to the (s)pace network.

I made another blog. It’s just a group blogging project.

It was pretty much made so my friend ipodnerd97 can get a taste of blogging.

I’m sick

Ryan — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 18:44:56 +0000

I’m sick. I had a fever but it thankfully went away. The bad part is that I have a stuffy nose and a bad cough stayed behind. I’ve been like this since Friday night.

I hope I’ll get to go to school tomorrow.
