In light of that thought I have been doing a lot of school work, working a considerable amount with my on campus job at the Center for Environmental Education, and then working at Pagliai's some as well. This past weekend was the first weekend for the Center's program called pre-service, which is basically where all of the elementary ed. undergrads come out the a retreat center in LBL and we teach them some really cool methods that they could use in their own classrooms when they're out and teaching. It's pretty cool and it was fun because I had the chance to work with my mom in the program.
Apart from that weekend I've also had a few projects going around the house. I had an old Schwinn bike frame lying around that I wasn't using so one day my friends Kevin and Stephen came over and we tore everything off of the frame and gave it a coat of some flat black and them we reassembeled everything. It was defintely a pretty cool little project and it was fun to learn a little more about bikes! Here are a few pictures of the finished product. I also bought a few new things for the bike including a head light, tail light, some new bar tape, and brake levers and calipers. The thing is gonna be pretty sharp when I get it all done. I'll be sure to get some more photos when it's all done.
Finally, the big project. I've been figuring and figuring and figuring some more and finally have started to get the bouldering wall project going. Yesterday, I busted ass on the project and made some considerable progress. Pretty much the current status is that the whole thing is framed in as of this morning and now I'm just waiting for this evening to roll around so I can have some friends come over to lend a hand in getting all of the supports up so it will be able to support it's self. I'm pretty excited and would love to be able to start setting some problems on it by the end of the week!
I hope everyone is doing well!
