    Jim Bern: Third Term

    Fine Luke, I won’t talk about classes.

    Bonus, when one’s blog readership is in the single digits, it can be really personal. Hey, Mom.

    It’s third term–I’m on grades–I helped build parties, I considered attending parties. I’ve been getting pizza a lot for lunch. There’s a secret menu at the pizza place. If you say “Farmer’s” (Farmers’?), you get a pizza covered in random vegetables. So, if you want to make up for the Coco Puffs you ate for breakfast, there’s that.

    I wrote a short story and entered in the short story contest. If selected, I think I win $500. So…

    Jim’s Hypothetical Windfall Budget:

    $200 – “Savings” or wherever it is responsible people put their money.

    $30 – Kanye West (Look at me go respecting those copyright laws).

    $70 – Motors/photoresistors/magnets to play with (it’s going to be cool).

    $50 – Arduino to play with (open-source hardware type thing, look robots!).

    $50 – 3D printing budget for when I get shop access.

    $50 – Juggling balls (the kind cool kids juggle).

    $20 – Popup version of “Wizard of Oz” (popup “Alice in Wonderland” feels lonely).

    $30 – Milkshake day is every day (for a week).

    Wish me luck.
