AND THE LACK THEREOF*

about

This is the personal blog of Tim. Here, Tim writes on anything he has enough inspiration to finish a post on. That usually ends up being matters of science, pop culture, technology, religion, and philosophy.

This blog is around nine years old, which is over a third of Tim's current age. Back in 2003, it was called "Of Tim: Tim's life - or lack thereof", and it was as bad as you might expect the blog of a freshman in high school to be. Tim hopes that his writing is a little better, these days.

Tim welcomes any input that you, the dear reader, might have. Comments are very much appreciated, especially if you have a dissenting opinion. If you'd like to learn more about Tim, you might want to see his facebook or google+.

Also: Tim is a very avid consumer of various sorts of music. You may be interested in his playlists!

I'm pretty happy, but my mom immediately felt the need to shoot me down. Recently, she's started working for the Ithaca College admissions department, and she promptly informed me that those scores aren't enough to get into Ithaca College. Not only do I not want to go to Ithaca College (i have several times informed her of this), but I'm going to TC3, where the SAT becomes null and void. I'm taking it because it's fun, it's a cool way to gague where I'm at. I think I did pretty well.

The Math portion I am disadvantaged as I'm not at the level needed to take the SAT (probably ended up in 4 or 5 questions wrong total), and I screwed up the Writing Skills by getting that last 7 or the last 9 questions wrong, due to being really rushed. I should have omitted them, but I think I did well anyways.

And courtesy of Daniel, I shall direct you to one of the funnier sites I've visited in my time, but a creepily accurate charge against Christendom in America. Meet Landover Baptist Church.

Finally, apparantly I've been tagged.
  1. I've been listening to the techno track from the next-gen party for many hours. In fact, it's looped over 550 times now. So good.
  2. I've got five pairs of old glasses sitting in the droor (edit: i've been informed this is actually "drawer"?) next to me. That's over $1500 of glass and metal, not including the cost of visits to the opthomologist.
  3. I have no yearbooks. None. Nada.
  4. I used to know disgustingly large amounts of geography. I would, for fun, go through this computer encyclopedia where you could click on a country on the map, and it would give you lots of information, play the national anthem, and other things. In fact, I placed second in a geography bee in third grade.
  5. I owned, or have owned, approximately $2,409.49 in video games. That's around 53 games. That's not all of them, either.
I don't really want to tag anyone, but I guess I'll tag Paul. Woo.

And now, to start this CS project.
