Into The Unimaginable

It’s been a while. I’ve been busy with class and work lately, but things are starting to slow down. Where shall I begin? Apple was incredible. Absolutely incredible. I cannot stress how much I loved being out there. It was sad to leave, but I came back with the knowledge that I was going back next summer. So happy. And as a plus, I get to work a little big on some projects for my team during the year if I have time.Class is going alright. The year seems like it’ll be good. Fall break is fast approaching already, which I can’t believe. Before you know it, it’ll be Christmas break again!I’m working this year at our campus newspaper, the University Daily Kansan. (The best college newspaper in the country, IMHO). I am their “Web Coordinator/Online Manager”, which basically means I run the software that in turn runs the website, and the web apps that we have. Right now I’m working hard at upgrading the online classifieds application, Hawkchalk. It’s going fairly smoothly. Another major project is updates to the UDK Facebook Application. There’s been a huge userbase grow out of just two months of usage. I think we’re at about 1,000 users so far. All of the UDK’s great webapps were originally written by my predecessor, a great guy named Ryan Berg. I just hope I can live up to his reputation.The Kansan is great. It’s amazing (and a little unnerving) to me how good everyone is at their jobs… The ads staff (which I am a part of) is a well oiled machine.As for the remaining part of my time, I’m cooking dinner on Wednesdays again this year at the hall, which is great. Gives me yet another creative outlet. Walking around on campus, I wonder how people ever leave here. (I know the answer…tiredness from class…) It’s so beautiful here in the fall. The weather right now is just right. 60-70 degrees, partly cloudy every day.Hmm…kind of a sparatic blog post, I know. But that’s how I am. This just in! and such.
