Day 80 So, who's ready for a paper writing all-nighter?! Yeah, me neither. freakin' plato... In other news, we did a fun little trick in Physics lab today. Basically, you hold a bicycle wheel, and get it spinning pretty fast. Then you step on to a turntable of somesort, and turn the bicycle wheel. Due to the conservation of angular momentum, you can get spinning really fast, just by turning the wheel completely over. It's tons of fun.
So I guess I should update this thing a bit. Seeing as I've been away for a while. Let's see. First of all, for all you who started college this semester, especially those who chose the illustrious Physics major. Don't worry. Sophomore year is much harder. I'm in an electronics course that started with only seven people, two of which dropped it due to grades. Aside from that though, I'm still loving Physics, and tutoring might be one of the most rewarding things I've ever done. The class
So, my computer has spent the last 50 or so hours churning out this 12,350 frame bad boy. [media]https://vimeo.com/55369173[/media] The song is a remix of Midna's Lament from the "Triforce of Bass" album. Which is totally awesome and you should buy it. But yeah, it's officially the longest render I've ever done. Mainly cause it's in 48 fps.
So I played Dark Souls a lot today. I started yesterday, and I finally managed to beat a Black Knight. I'm a Pyromancer, because fire. Also, I beat Battletoads last night. I felt so accomplished. It was exhilarating. I don't even. I celebrated my watching My Neighbor Totoro for the first time. Good movie. As a side effect of all this, I didn't check Staff Survivor all day, and managed to lose The Clikit Supertramps' immunity. *insert pleading to not vote me off"
What way do you want the B:NG kanohi to be modeled?
1. Totally static masks, no mouths, no eyebrows, just masks.
2. TLR style, where the masks are static, but flip back when talking to reveal talking heads, still no eyebrows.
3. Miramax style, eyebrows, lit mouths, and flexible masks.
4. Static masks, with eyebrows, and animated mouths.
5. Static masks, no eyebrows, Miramax mouths.
If I missed any, or you want a different one tell me in the comments.

Note, don't read this unless you've read part 1! So, first I'll explain the reasoning behind the answer to the first question. That's the reasoning. Sorry if I explained it poorly. Now, this doesn't answer the second question, it still seems like the Guru gives no information. So what's to stop the above cycle from just occuring spontaneously. What does the Guru say to start it off? So there you have it. It's a little tough to get your head around, plus I'm pretty bad
AAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. :|
Calculus is literally killing me. Here's what I'm doing.
Seriously? Why do they do this to me?
Btb, the answer is:
4/(51/3) x 4/(51/3) x 251/3
So I've been having fun with modular origami, and thought I'd share with y'all what I've been doing. First up is this guy. In the family of Icosidodecahedra, this is the Compound of Five Tetrahemihexahedra (yes, that's its actual name). 30 sheets used in this one. Next, is the Enigma Cube! I'm particularly fond of this thing. Mine is kinda sloppy though. The neat thing about this one is it has an illusory cube inside. It's kinda hard to tell with that picture, so here's an awful gif.

Equestria Girls has the exact same plot as the first half of the second Panty and Stocking episode. Like...exactly. Complete with high-school 'queen' turning into a winged demon outside the school.
Birthday loot brag time!! I had a pretty sweet load this time 'round, maybe one of the best ever for me. First up iTunes money, so I had just enough to buy both Clockwork Angels by Rush, as well as Alive 2007 by Daft Punk. So good. Second up was a Zombie survival poster, which didn't really make sense since my whole family knows I'm not a poster person. Thirdly, was a $50 () Steam gift card. Snagged about 75 bucks overall. Greatest of all however, was the T-shirts. Feast your eyes upon th
So I've been on a NES kick recently I played through Castlevanias 1 and 3. (I refuse to touch Simon's Quest) However, I just beat the Turbo Tunnel stage on Battletoads. I've never done that before. I feel so freakin' accomplished, that I'm gonna go eat a pizza. Wait, wrong anthropomorphic fighting green team.
Well, I quite liked this episode. I wish Luna had spoken, but we did have all mane six sing, which hasn't happened in a while. Plus, at least three definite instances of Derpy!! ONE! (on the bridge) TWO! (by the crystal ponies legs) THREE! (far right) Not to mention the more obvious Vinyl Scratch.
So, I'm back from tour! Couple o' quick updates. Steam loot: Half-life Walking Dead Dark Souls AC: III Bioshock Infinite SBCGFAP Also STAFF SURVIVOR WHAAAT?! I don't know what I'm doing.
So I feel like being more active here again. Maybe. We'll see how it goes. Either way, I finally changed my christmas theme. I've told by multiple people that I am, in fact, Dipper Pines. So I figured this would be appropriate. Also, I've been listening to so much Punch Brothers. And nothing could be better. Also also, I got to see Caravan Palace live a week or so ago. It was pretty sick. Their violinist is insane.
So it seems I haven't been around a lot recently, as shown by my still having a christmas themed avatar. So, basic life update: Finished freshman year of college! Yay! Party time all around! That's pretty much it! I haven't been able to get a job this summer, although not for lack of trying. I swear I must've applied to every business in the area. Now for the kinda bummer reason I started this entry. I just found out that my family hasn't been able to make the mortgage payments on our
