Towson University, Day 1
So, yesterday was my first day at Towson University, and I was planning on sitting in a cryptography class. Well, the bad news was the class was full, with people trying to add. I didn’t feel right taking a chair, so I left. It also seemed pretty intro; I knew most of the crypto stuff they were going to cover anyway. But no one said anything. I’m going to look for another class to try for. I did spend a lot of time in the library though.
I did something I’ve never done before. I pulled a book of the shelf, “When we were Orphans” by Kazuo Ishiguro, which was on my to-read list, and read it cover to cover, then put it back. Only took around 4.5 hours or so. It was a pretty neat book, about a British guy growing up in Shanghai in 1915, then going back in ’38. I also found a great spot with power and great wifi signal, so next time I’ll work on my laptop. Even if I don’t end up going to any classes, I think I’ll be using the library a lot. It’s a great resource when I’m working.
I can’t believe it’s September already! I have a lot of projects I want to complete before I leave for Sacramento at the end of the month. I’ll be picking up some hours while I’m back there at my old place of employment, which is a good thing. It will keep me busy.
