Marcus' i+1 Journal

[Teacher]

Bottom post of the previous page:

It is pretty awesome that we ended up becoming friends despite you getting the wrong impression when we first met what with that shrunken head I had dangling from my mirror, it certainly is amazing that the ACA has come this far, and it's just getting started!

Bwajajaja yes OMG I remember that!!! That was definitely a "holy shit maybe I shouldn't be hitchhiking" moment!

And love the finisher. We just getting started... watch out world!!!

[Marcus]

Well I managed to get most of what I set out to do today done, but I still have some stuff left to do, at least the puppies have calmed down and the one that was having trouble seems to have recovered!

[Teacher]

How is the Habit Tracker coming along?

[Marcus]

Well the habit tracker isn't really what I am working on this week, but I have been trying to keep it updated. I have been spending most of my time trying to get ready for my cookistry class coming up tomorrow.

COOKISTRY!!!!!!!!!!

[Teacher]

Okay hell yes!

We need to get a lot of footage! Lets do some cool science experiments in one soon? I also wanted to do one where we play with bread boards, aimed at very basic circuit logic! Imagine if you me and Arley did something like that. So 1/3, 1/3, 1/3 of the work and 3x the glory!

Plus it would fit in right with where we are headed in the Computer Science class, as we eventually get into Logic, Boolean Algebra, and Circuits!

What an outstanding event Marcus!! so informative!
Waiting for future events like this.

[Teacher]

Marcus I really loved the chemistry jokes and chemistry quiz at the beginning!

Hah hah hah I keeeeed (get it because that was me lol)

But yeah, very informative! Maybe for the part two now that we have covered theory we could put it into practice! And the coffee idea is a really cool one - I know Julian would love it!

[Marcus]

Much obliged guys, I am glad you enjoyed it and will try to improve on the class in the future! I will be getting stuff posted soon as well as going through and updating some audios this evening, but it has been somewhat hectic recently. I will probably download the audios that Arley recorded that way I can see how he pronounces the sentences and I will be able to make recordings that have special emphasis on the parts of words that need the most work. I actually think something like this may be a better way to go about the audio recordings as it will let our audio partners more readily focus on areas of words where our pronunciation could use some extra work.

Yes, I feel like there was some confusion (Arley uploading responses in Spanish (or English??) to your requests instead of you uploading you response to them), and also Arley posting his RUNAs for you to respond to... it DOES go to show though that we are on the right path. Because I feel it is difficult to always know if the sentence you are requesting is even how the native speaker would say it!

So yeah, i+1, we are getting there!

Crushing it Marcus! I really liked those audio requests you made as well, definitely are going to go in my own Anki!

Marcus you are doing a great job with your audio posts. Keep up the great work!
