So long autumn

Well, we are in December, so I think it's safe to say winter has finally arrived. But once again, fall is perhaps the best time at Penn State. The temperature hovers around 15 degrees, tons of sunshine, blue sky, low humidity, girls getting tans, ok... Picture taken outside my dorm - Watts Hall of west, aka. the hotel.

We just recently got the first glimpse of winter - 2 inches of snow that quickly turned into sleet. For those of you that don't know, it's god damn slippery. Oh well, this was all before the sleet, ice, and snow came down. Doesn't it look like a scene in a storybook? (By the way, how does this compare to your garbage den - Computer Gay?)

Main enterence to Watts Hall.

Upper lawn of west. Includes the front yard and 3 other dorms - one of which is Watts Hall.

That small building in the distance - the old science lab. Before Penn State got the funding to build numerous science labs, it was the one place where all the labs took place. It was also the place where they butchered numerous cows for meat. Picture took from a dorm next to mine.

New TV arrives on 11/26/07!

For all this time at college, I had never owned a TV. But that streak is about to end as the money earned over summer is screaming to be spent. So... this beauty now compliments the rest of my monotonous dorm :)

Without further adieu, I think the pictures will speak for themselves. Just one small note however, it's 32 inches of crystal clear imagery - 1080p - FULL HD!!! (It's also the lightest LCD made thus far - though that isn't of much importance.)

So that concludes the introduction. Now, if you have a serious fetish for specs, more can be provided for your pleasure in the link below:

Just some final thoughts - if you wanna get a TV, why not give Ebay a try? It's cheap, reliable, and fast! (By the way, anyone notice the PS3 on top of the microwave? It's called living the "high-life".)
