Day 7.5 – Another in class video March 12, 2008

It happened again. Today I have only one class, my Major Writers of the 20th Century with Professor David Hoddeson. (One of the most interesting and entertaining professors at Rutgers-Newark.)

Day 5 and 6: Philosophy Paper and the Observer Office! March 12, 2008

- Sunday & Monday Sunday’s are usually set aside for working on the school newspaper, The Observer. I don’t know how it happened but I somehow ended up being Editor-In-Chief this semester.

Day 2: I Fail…Sort Of March 6, 2008

Well that didn’t take long. This morning the unplugged project had to take a backseat to school. In my TV & Society class we watched a few videos of Sci-Fi shows including Dr. Who, Buck Rogers and Futurama. I really had no choice and due to this I decided this one instance didn’t count. I [...]

I thought it would be interesting to list what I’ve been watching before I started the project. Here’s a rundown of the last few things I’ve watched. Movie: In a theater George Romero’s Diary of the Dead I saw this movie a few weeks ago at the Jersey Gardens Mall. I’m a huge Romero fan [...]

Day 1: The Begining March 6, 2008

Today I started the unplugged project and I realized that this is going to be a lot harder than I thought. It began shortly after I woke up. My best friend/landlord Bruno came over and we went to go get some breakfast. While there we talked about the new Gnarl’s Barkley video for his song [...]
