Wedding Weekend
This weekend I traveled close to 1000 miles, went through 5 states, and got to see my entire family. This weekend I went to my Uncle's wedding. I went with my friend Gwendolyn and we had the best time. The wedding took place in Saugerties, NY which is a small town in upstate New York, about 10 miles from the town of Woodstock, where THE Woodstock was held in 1969. My uncle got married on Saturday, and at the reception we celebrated well into the night. It was a great time. The most annoying part was all the driving, but even that was a lot of fun, especially when you have company. It makes the time fly when you're not driving by yourself staring monotonously at the black asphalt.
I also stayed on track with a lot of my work. It helped that I didn't have a whole lot of work to do in the first place, but I did have some reading which I was able to do, and am still doing before the class so it's working out very well.
In computer science we just got our first programming assignment. I have to create a program that simulates a vending machine. There will be a list of items you can select from the vending machine, it will give you the cost, and then you have to input that much "money" via the keyboard. I'm kind of intimidated about it honestly, but I'm already starting the project so hopefully I'll work on it and ask a lot of questions. The ultimate goal is to have it done by Friday, even though it's not due until Monday. Projects like this tend to loom overhead and put a damper on the weekend so my goal is to get it done ASAP so I won't have to worry about it when I'm trying to enjoy my days off.
Well that's all for now, talk to you later!
