Open House and getting worse

Well, the Univeristy of Washington had its Open House on Friday and Saturday, in which I participated as a volunteer for the Engineering part. I got a volunteer t-shirt, another name badge on a lanyard and had a lot of fun. On Friday I ran the table that taught people (mostly kids) how computers store letters as numbers, then on Saturday I ran the parity trick area. I had a lot of fun showing kids how to do things, and I met this guy Twon who’s looking to come to the UW who was pretty interesting to talk to about Computer Science as a problem solving field.

I went to the Computer Science TGIF which was alright. I ended up chatting to a girl named Julie who was a PhD student in the Oceanography department for quite a long time about various different kinds of things.

I worked on my assignments, went to the Anime Club meeting, then went out with the Anime Club people on the Ave for a bubble tea and a chat. It was really good going out with them actually. I’m slowly learning their names, and at the very least I’ve got a bit of social activity for my Friday nights, hurrah!

My sleep has gone to hell in a handbasket from stress over work stuff.
