Yes, you heard right. I must be a terrible person for doing this, but Professor Xun’s particular strange Chinese accent makes it impossible to follow o take notes from his lectures. I’ve actually begun teaching myself Calculus outside of the class in order to make up for the man’s lousy teaching skills, and it hasn’t been to difficult. The guy never did anything but regugitate what the textbook said anyway, so reading the textbook actually provides me with clearer information.

But Jason, you haven’t made a post in nearly two months! I know, something must be wrong with me! I probably died or something. Or I didn’t, and everything’s fine, since it is and I’m alive. And not much, incidentally, has happened in two months – to explain my absense, I’ll simply say I’ve been focusing a lot more on schooling and much less on web development and side-projects. I do, however, have a few updates for my design portfolio; I designed a new logo in my absense, and obviously I would like to put my covers for The Typist in there, as well as the logo design for Cydia. Expect that in a couple days.

As for the Maple Story Soundtrack, which I get a million emails about – it should be obvious by now that I can no longer update it. Not only do the tools no longer exist, but I’ve switched operating systems and the most I would be able to do is name the unknown tracks. I will do this, but I won’t go further; as soon as I identify aqnd sort the unknown tracks, the Maple Story Soundtrack is going out of commission. I will always host it, and you all are free to send me tracks I’m missing and I will add them to the soundtrack, but I will no longer actively maintain it. I’m sorry, but school takes priority over a silly game!

In addition, I’ve discovered some very cool note-taking tools in Curio + Evernote. In the past, I’ve tried Evernote and failed to realize its usefulness until I used it in combination with Curio to manage my IBE Freshman Workshop project. Curio integrates seamlessly with Evernote, so Evernote becomes your online project library, which is great when you need to capture and photo of, say, a powerpoint presentation or a whiteboard and keep it in your notebook for later. I’d say my class notes have also become supercharged with Curio + my Wacom tablet. I’ve never been more pleased with my class notes; pencil and paper can suck it.

I’ll be back sometime soon with more stuff to talk about. Until then… goodbye? ;)
