Whoo hoo! The semester is over!

It was actually one of the most fun and challenging semesters I’ve had while at SIUE. From the orginal research to starting sciencecentr.org and creating a design document for a history simulation game based off of the Sims, I was on my toes, but it paid off! Now I need to figure out what I’m doing next semester…

The Nintendo Wii: I have found another new addiction. The Nintendo Wii is digital crack…especially, Wii Bowling. It’s just as delightfully frustrating as real bowling! Changing your technique, consciously or unconsciously, messes up your game just as it would at a smoke filled bowling alley! One moment your slapping down the pins, getting Turkeys left and right, the next thing you know: you’re struggling to knock 8 pins… If you’ve never tried one out, you had better! Plus, it’s great for all ages. Seriously, from a five year old to ninety-five: anyone can do it!
