I did it! I finally made my first omelette ever that didn't end up turning into scrambled eggs! it was fluffy and DELICIOUS.

It only took 11 days shy of 22 years for it to happen, hurrah!

BEHOLD!

So, what sort of successes have you folks had lately?

    Because of my biology minor, I got to teach all of our kids about trees and plants for about an hour. I'm a teacher's assistant, so we usually don't do that. The teachers were very, very impressed, stressing that it would definitely show up in my evaluation.

    EDIT: That is one CHEESY omelette.

    I got a new job. I work with Flash now.

    EDIT: Well, I use a lot of actionscript anyway.

    I finally made it so I could use my PS2 controller to play Maple Story on my computer. Using a sixaxis PS3 driver, a Joy to Key program, and a cable meant to convert a ps2 GH controller to a PS3 console. And it worked Yaaaa

    I haven't actually beat it yet, but I'm making good progress in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, which is the hardest one yet. In America, at least, I don't know about Japan.

    I made jumping and gravity work right, so now I can make fun little Flash platforming things.

    I successfully made epic awesomeness after an entire day of code-searching!

    I've got a following of people who've been reading my as of yet unnamed running story. I consider that successful.

    That guy wasn't even taking any damage from hits. Hardly "epic".

    My programming teacher called me up to talk about an internship with a subsidiary of Amazon. I'll actually be doing some hardcore coding too, not just paperwork.

    I guess you'll be part of their e-turk department. Yep, less-than-minimum wages for menial tasks. AWESOME.

    That Arwing hack looks awesome, although it would be even better if you could somehow swap in a TIE-Fighter model from Rogue Squadron or Shadows of the Empire and simulate an Imperial attack on Hyrule.

    I drove from home to school for the first time. It was the longest I've ever driven, 6 hours.

    While this is only somewhat of a success, and could teeter into the failure zone at any time, my application was waitlisted at Western Michigan University. I'm kinda reaching here, because I've already gotten three rejections, but this makes me feel marginally better. Maybe the other two places will full out accept me, who knows?

    Wait? You live in Michigan? Or are you just applying here?

    Well, if we're gonna discuss university entries...

    picture2xp0.png

    My current UCAS (University application people) listing. I now need to choose both a firm and insurance university. I shall pick Greenwich as my insurance, but for firm I do not know. Northumbria and Leicester are tied atm.

    Northumbria has a funner night life, what with being in Newcastle (And Geordies are probably some of the friendliest people you'll ever meet), but Leicester is better academically and also not too shabby on the night life front...

    Decisions, decisions. I have until May 5 to choose :(

    This is the SUCCESS thead nightlord, not the FAILURE thread. You obviously failed at Loughborugh so that image is entirely off-topic. Gosh.

    SUCCESS. I drew a half of one comic panel yesterday.
  • BehemothBehemoth
    edited March 2008
    I don't know if that's really a success. Which half did you draw?
  • hlavcohlavco
    edited March 2008
    The character, except for the mouth. It doesn't, like, take up half the panel, but it takes longer to do than the rest.

    This, again, is somewhat of a success thread. I got accepted into Fordham University... but they're not giving me any funding. So I would have to take out a LOT of loans, or get a LOT of third-party scholarships, to afford it, and I'm not sure if it's worth it. I'm still waiting to hear from Notre Dame, and I'm still waitlisted with Western Michigan, so who knows what will happen?

    Don't you get a student loan from the government over there?

    Probably what he meant by "take out a LOT of loans". FAFSA is the one that immediately comes to mind, not sure how much they cover though.
