Craft Night

So it was craft night at our house tonight and my craft won the awards in the following categories.

1. Stinkiest craft

2. Loudest craft

3. Most annoying craft

4. The coolest craft

5. The hottest craft

So is the suspense killing you all? Wondering what on earth would win so many prestigious awards? And what has possessed me to join craft night? Well here is a picture of it. Isn't it so cute?

So yes it’s a dirt bike. It was given to me from my cousin Trent who just didn’t want to deal with it. What are my plans for it you may wonder? Well I’m going to tinker with it until I can’t tinker no more. Then I might sell it because I haven’t figured out a way of transporting it in my civic.

First Week of School

I have never had a busier first week of class in my life. And it's mostly because of one class. It's called "Basic Structural Design". There's nothing really "basic" about it. The first PRACTICE assignment had 26 problems on it and the first real assignment had 10 parts to it, due January 19. And we had a tutorial. We NEVER have tutorials or labs the first week. I finally finished both assignments about an hour ago, except the formal title page.

Here's a page in the assignment. Looks fun eh? We're asked to draw the normal force, shear force, and bending moment diagrams and draw the deflected shape of the beam. Ya, no one has ever taught us about hinges before. The prof just expects us to know. How thoughtful.



Now it's clean house time for our company this weekend. But I have to display my new purse first! I saw it at The Trading Post (I think???) in Fernie and really wanted it, but it's not exactly cheap. Then we received a very generous gift of the money variety so I could get it! Unfortunately, it wasn't at the store anymore. Then Leif found it on sale somewhere in Saskatoon with free shipping! And it's purple. Perfect.



Hope everyone had a nice holiday season full of pretty things!
