Computers 101, 1st Period [Friday]

[likethegun]

Normally, Sam would have been wary about mixing drinks and precious technology that didn't belong to him, but it was still really freaking cold outside, so when the students arrived, they would find hot chocolate waiting for them by their computers.

"So, one of the most useful things about computers, in my opinion, is how they help us communicate with each other," he said, once everyone was settled. "There's a lot to be said for receiving a well-written, handwritten letter, but sending messages through the computer is a lot faster, and more effective, most of the time. Communicating online is especially important for people in Fandom, because sometimes, electronic messages are the only way people here can keep in touch with friends who have gone home. To be honest, I'm not sure how it all works, but it's one of the nice things about this place that balances out things like snow in July."

"Another thing about communicating on the computer is that you don't have to talk to people you already know. There are lots of ways to meet new people who you share a common interest with, and the one we're going to play around with today is chat rooms." This had the potential for disaster, but Sam was keeping his fingers crossed that it would work out anyway. Once everyone's computers were on, he showed the students how to connect to IRC. "There are a lot of different rooms you can connect to, most of which are based on a single topic or interest. Find one that interests you, and see if you can strike up a conversation."

True Heroism! The Olympian Way! Session 3, Period 3

Partially because of the weather, though mostly due to the topic at hand, this week the workshop met in the Danger Shop.

( Herc doesn't have a no-cape rule. Possibly because he likes cloaks too much )

[ooc: OCD first, plz Class is up and running!]

Library [7/22]

Wesley was shelving today, and every once in a while clucking his tongue at the gall of some people who'd attempted to reshelve themselves. Books on television did not belong with books on telekinesis, of course. It was simply appalling. And for goodness' sake, the books on prophecies were meant to be organized, not just haphazardly flung around! It was atrocious. Just atrocious. He poured himself a cup of tea and got to work reorganizing.

Physical education, Period 4, 22/7

There wasn't any class happening in the gym today. In fact, Guy was absolutely nowhere to be found, though the door to the gym was open. And had a note taped to the front.

No class today
Off dealing with idiots
In space
RUN LAPS
I'M WATCHING YOU
FROM SPACE

Hey, let it never be said he wasn't dedicated to teaching.

[ no class. run laps, children! or sneak off while you can. he's not actually watching. ]
