hey i'm going to update my livejournal more often.  megan and i are making a movie btw it's in no way actually happening or meant to be taken seriously.  harmony korine once said: "I just wanted to write the American novel... I mean, well, at least, I wanted it to be American."  flight of the conchords is okay i've decided but i have no intentions to watch it to be honest.  chem test tomorrow, i hope i don't fail.  my chemistry professor was talking about quantum spin the other day and someone asked why electrons spin.  and he said "i don't know, because the dude says it, and he means it!"  kinda thing thats funniest when you see it happen for the first time.  megan lahman said i'm looking nice today ;) i didnt do anything spectacular to myself tonight i saw joel steven and kathyrin perform wonderful music mar was there and she is one of the nicest people i know but slightly crazy?  in a good way of course.  i learned how to make code to make my robot go today i said go forward turn right go straight stop turn left, go straight, wait.  of course that's not the code, but who actually cares about that? programming robots is really cool because you are telling a system to remember commands and autonomously execute them it's like making a brain.  one thing that you can do in programming robots is say "if: (command, maybe a light sensor reading a black value), then (consequence).  that's where you really get to think.  to make something walk doing if/then and light sensors you can say

loop forever if:(black) left fan off.  else: left fan on. if:(white) right fan off.  else right fan on.  that would produce a walking movement

pretty bad explanation but that's all i have to sa about that i'm spending the night at megans house and i love typing it feels great.
