New Photo
I just uploaded a new photo of some flowers. It is actually the same as the one just before it, but I enhanced the color just a little bit. I think I’m going to start doing that a little more. I prefer the colors to be as much from the camera as possible, but flowers really do look better when the colors are made a little more vibrant. The link to see the new photo is listed below.

New Theme
I just put on a new theme. I’ll see how I like it, if I decide I don’t, I’ll look for another theme or perhaps try to change what I don’t like about this one.
Continuing to update my website
Since my last post nothing really noticable has happened to the website. I did upload a few more photos, but the look to the website is the same, however, I have made a few more changes to the back-end to improve the code, and possibly the performance. I guess the next thing I’ll do is update my WordPress from what ever version I have now to 2.7.1. Maybe someday I’ll take on the task of really customizing the look.
Website updated
Today I updated my website, now some of the links from the blog part to the photo section are ‘broken.’ The new link to the photos is here. The overall look of the website hasn’t changed much, but the back-end of things has changed to what I consider better code. Next up is to take some more pictures to put on the page.
Updating the photo pages
Summer vacation is starting again, and I’ve been looking for work. I’d have to say that I’m not looking very hard at this point. One thing that I’ve noticed is there seems to be a few places looking for php developers. Programming comes easily to me, the only problem is I’m not that familiar with php, so I decided to learn php and MySQL while I have some free time. I found a book, that so far seems to be a good resource for learning php for those that have a programming background. Of course with the new ‘tools’ I’m getting from the book I have to update my website. I initially did the website with the very little php I knew, but now I am learning more of the ‘features’, and incorporating these new ‘features’ into my photo gallery section of this site. Overall I would say the source is pretty messy, and right now I’m thinking of eventually re-doing the entire thing.
It’s been a while
I’m finally going to add something new to my blog. I’ve been keeping busy with home work, and wasting time playing games. This next week is fall break, so I don’t have any classes, hurray! I guess this is about the mid point of the semester. In my programming class, after the break, we are going to start programming mods for Half Life 2. That should be fun. A couple of weeks ago we had a home work assignment to play the game for a little while, and answer some questions. That was the best assignment I have every had. Hopefully over this break I don’t forget too much, so when it’s over I can get right back into the flow of all of my classes.
I’m going to try to take some photos this week to put in my photo gallieries.
Back to School
On August 25 fall semester classes started. It’s about time I write something. I’m taking three classes. An electrical engineering class, a computer science class, and one that is a mix, but I think it leans a little more to the computer science. So far the assignments haven’t been too hard on me. I’m just not looking forward to doing the lab reports for my electrical engineering class. This semester I’m switching to C++ from Java. So far it hasn’t been too much trouble for me. The first assignment was something that I could have done in Java almost without thinking. However, this next assignment includes functionality that Java doesn’t provide (overloading operators).
Pee Here
I actually took this picture 2 years ago, but today I was looking through my pictures trying to decide which ones I haven’t put on my site that would be good to put. Well I saw this one and thought that it would be a good one to put on my blog. We went to Tony’s grove to walk around. I don’t remember what the fee is for exactly, but this post is where you are supposed to put the money, and somebody went and changed the ‘F’ to a ‘P’ I thought that was kind of funny so I took a picture of it. Remember “Pee Here”
Fireworks!!
Yesterday was the 4th of July. It was fun to go to the city fireworks. Really I like to say more with photos, and I was thinking that I would like to try to get some good pictures of the fireworks. Well, I don’t have any pictures of fireworks because I left my camera at home (it was partly on purpose). Also while watching the fireworks I decided I’d rather just sit and enjoy them then watch them through a camera lens hoping for a good picture. Maybe one of these years I’ll actually take my camera and get some pictures. I really would like to try.
Happy Birthday Tiffany!!!! One year old today!!!!
New Photo
The other day I went to Layton City Park with my sister to take some pictures. We went at about 8pm so it was starting to get kind of dark. Unfortunately I was not able to get any really good pictures. I got one that is pretty good considering I didn’t have a tripod and I am kind of shaky.
