Computers 101, 1st Period [Friday]

[likethegun]

When everyone arrived to class today, they'd find the computers turned off again, and a television at the front of the room, along with bowls of popcorn.

"We've seen computers do some great things in here," Sam said once everyone was settled down, "but sometimes, people seriously overestimate what kinds of things computers are capable of doing. Usually, it's Hollywood that takes things too far, and today, we're going to watch a really good example of that."

It was possible that Sam's definition of "really good" didn't match up with reality.

"I hope it should go without saying that you shouldn't try any of this stuff, since it probably won't work but, seriously, don't try this stuff without a really amazing reason, okay?" There, now if anyone did illegal things and went to jail, it wouldn't be his fault, right?

Library [06/03]

A couple of days ago, there was nothing in the world that could have gotten Wesley into the library, not even his assigned shift. But then he'd spoken to Karla, and she'd been so helpful, and suddenly this was something that he was able to do. So he sat at the desk, and occasionally looked tentatively over toward the books, considering shelving them. He never did, but he kept looking over anyway.

Advanced Astrophysics (and Arts & Crafts), Friday, 3rd Period - 6/3

Today, there was a neat little pile of newspapers, a bucket of paste, and a wide assortment of balloons for the students. There was also a nice assortment of tissue paper for decorating in yellows, oranges and shades of white. Which might give a hint as to what they were supposed to be doing during class. Maybe. Just maybe.

As soon as everyone arrived, Reed handed out the instructions to the 'crafts' portion of class. "Hello again, everyone! While you work on your pinatas today, we're going to watch a movie that illustrates supernovas," he said, starting said movie.

And then tilted his head at it.

"This isn't the movie I picked," he assured the class quickly, going through the files on his computer to find the right one.

It... could take a while. Technical difficulties!
