Stalled

currently listening to: nothing, because my psp ran out of battery.

Well I'm stuck. Over the past year I've learned a fairly large amount of web design in my own time and have been longing for a chance to showcase it. Finaly the opportunity arose when my mother asked me to make a web site for my brother, showcasing his skils in broadcasting. I immediately got down to work and came to an abrupt halt as he has failed to provide me with any material to put on it. No profile, not broadcasts, nothing. So I am patiently awaiting that. However, if you would like to see the website as it progresses, go to www.mikeothic.com and it should bring you there. It's preaty basic right now, but once I start integrating some flash it will rock your socks off.

Apparently Hoof and Mouth is a Big Problem Amongst Youngsters

Currently Listening to: Suture Up Your Future by Queens of the Stone Age

Well at the moment I am sitting in one of the computer labs on campus waiting for my first class of the day to start at 10. It's 8 now.

I have a test, but I'm not sure what it is over. Oh well, hopefully they will grade on a curve, because the rest of the kids in my class are even bigger idiots than me.

I worked on my house yesterday again. I am getting more and more excited and anxious every day about moving in. I'm sure there will be some ugly parts to living away from home and not in a dorm, but it seems like it will be so exhilarating at the same time. All we have to do is replace some flooring in the kitchen and laundry room, and paint the bedrooms and kitchen, and we can move in. I'm contemplating what color scheme to use in my room, because I want to paint a mural over it and need a good background color. Later today I am going to go with one of my room mates to lowes and look at area rugs for the living room. I've decided I can live with cheesy vinyl "hard wood" floors. It looks almost real. almost. Then we are going to go in and start taping everything to prep for painting. I hate painting walls.

Other than that, I don't have much to say. College is boring the majority of the time, but that's probably because I haven't really reached the meat and potatoes of my degree yet.

I will try to post some pictures of the house soon so the 2 people who read this blog can get an idea of what the next two years will be like for me. Cheers.
