suzanne strikes again! smart home in uproar.

Both entrances are now BOO-tifully decorated with fake spiderweb and garnished with fake spiders.  Y’all notice the new kitchen towels too?  There’s also a “really ugly” (read: quite ordinary) garland from Woolworth’s (of the UK) that our favorite interior designer brought over from the Lone Star.  Look forward to that in a few weeks.  Screw Hallowe’en and Thanksgiving.  Christmas, here we come!!!

P.S. – We oughta do secret santa, as well as stockings.  I love stockings!!  Also, Hallowe’en party FOSHO.

P.P.S. – Somebunny needs to upload the first magazine cover.  And let’s get to work on this month’s issue, stat!

perkinsense

Will, Matt, Jeff and Kelvin are working on the tentatively-named ‘Perkinsense’ — a presence detection system that we’d like to deploy in the library.  It would indicate which study rooms in Perkins/Bostock are currently taken (how useful) and would be a neat application of microcontrollers (how neat).  Meetings with library officials are taking place..more later.

some introduction

oh wordpress, did you drop this post?  Well, we’re the 09-10 residents in the greenest dorm on the surface of the earth!  We like cooking, futzing with the media room computer, and doing our homework really well.  On to posting past projects!

night slacking

Our home’s somewhat industrial exterior provides some nice anchor points for slacklining.  Everybody stood for at least a few seconds!
