November in Pictures

Life has been busy, but that is no excuse for why I haven't been updating the blog. I guess sometimes I loose the will to sit down and type  something up. It would be easier to do quick updates instead of these huge updates. 

Finals are this week! Yeah, and no at the same time. 3 days to take 5 tests, not what I call the most exciting and fun thing in the world, but I have 4 weeks of vacation to look forward to after that.

Here is the month in pictures.

First, some pictures of Pittsburgh in Fall. It was wonderful.



Novembet 11th, I had my 25th birthday. A quarter of a century and I'm still going strong ;)

We then had a wonderful weekend in Marietta, PA with family. It was a good time. We went and hiked to the highest point around, a hill called Governor Dick. They had a big cement tower we climbed to the top of.  We made graham cracker houses with the kids, and went on a walk down to where Sharon grew up and saw the forest and ruins she used to play in and skipped rocks in the Susquehanna River. Sharon is such a cutie!



Last but not least I've spent some time this last semester, mostly this month, working on a group project for my Telecom class. We built a simple 'prototype' application for the new Google Android phone. Here are some screen shots of it running on the emulator. It was fun, but I didn't have enough time to make it do anything really cool.
