Thanks for stopping by! You have stumbled upon the personal website of Sidney Collins (aka Bubs). I'm a 24-year old student at the University of Alabama studying Computer Science and Mathematics. When I'm not busy programming you'll probably find me writing, drawing, reading, shopping, eating, or playing Monopoly.
School’s back in full force… that’s why I haven’t been around much lately. I have 2 projects due and an exam this week 
Will and I have $100 riding on our GPAs this semester. If I make better in my classes, he pays me (vice-versa) It’s a bit unfair since he is in grad school and doesn’t have as heavy of a load as I do 
In case you’re interested, here’s what I’m taking:
Have I mentioned that I have no immune system? It’s only the second week of class and I’ve caught a nasty virus 
I’ve missed 2 days of summer class, which is equivalent to missing a week in a regular term. My professor said he’d help me catch up, but it’s not the same as attending lecture. Oh well, there’s not much I can do 
On a brighter note, I’ve received more goodies in the mail!
Wow… Tuesday will be my first class in 7 months! I took the Spring semester off in order to prepare for my upcoming surgery. I have to take Calculus 3 this July so that I won’t fall further behind. I’m already graduating 2 years late since I changed my major
I bought school supplies today. I always love shopping for new notebooks and pens!
First of all, I’m still working on the content pages. I promise they will be up asap! 
Oh, and I still plan to add a links section to the bottom of the main page.
Secondly, thank you all SO MUCH for the wonderful comments!
Thirdly, I don’t mean to brag, but I’d like to share some wonderful news that I received yesterday…
Here are the sites that I have designed so far:
University of Alabama Philosophy Department
McNair Scholars Program
Bruce Kim
Studio by the Tracks (temporary address)
I’m very happy with the way the Studio design turned out 
School is finally out! This semester wasn’t as much tough as it was annoying. I was doing really well in Calculus 2 until the very end. I had another class (Discrete Mathematics) that was just stupid (and the teacher wasn’t very good, either!) I’m excited though because I mapped out the remainder of my CS degree and realized that I will graduate next December (as opposed to next May). My friends told me that there would be flying cars when I graduated… I guess I proved them wrong 
Although I’ll be finished with undergrad, I recently decided that I want to go to law school AND get my masters in CS. So, by the time I get out of school, cars just might be flying.
I’m taking ECE 383: Assembly Language and an LSAT prep course this summer, so that will take up a lot of my time. I will also be working on a couple of web projects and some research for one of my ECE professors. In terms of my personal web projects, I hope to release a new version of MyQuilt Admin and re-open my old clique, Perfection. Phew! Looks like I’m going to be quite busy. Maybe staying busy will help me lose the pounds I packed on this semester
I finished decorating my office. I took Lemon’s advice and added some white to my corkboard… it looks a lot better! My decorations were very inexpensive (Domo-Kun costs the most! :lol:) Almost everything was from Target and Hobby Lobby. It’s so much more refreshing to go to work now
I’m going to upgrade to Wordpress 2.0 soon, so ignore any errors… Nevermind, I don’t have time.
My button rotation, BubblesSWAP, has a new look and location:
Please check it out!
In other news, I decided to decorate my office at work because it was just so blah. I’ll post some pics when I’m finished. Over the weekend, I painted a bulletin board to hang above my desk…
I didn’t like the way the polka dots came out though 
Too big I think. I also bedazzled a clock…
I think it looks pretty cute. It matches a pencil holder I made last week.
Pixie kept trying to lick up the paint Isn’t she pwecious??
Doing some cleaning… ignore the mess!
Wow, it’s snowing outside right now! I literally haven’t seen snow in 4 years. Too bad it’s not sticking 
Had to buy a new set of headphones tonight… I have the worst luck with headphones. One side always shorts out… does that ever happen to you? I’m guessing it’s because I sleep with them on at night. I recently had two sets of these. Pixie ate the first set, and the right earpiece shorted out of the second. I really enjoyed them, but I hated paying $40 for headphones
School starts back this Wednesday. Maybe I’ll make some decent grades for a change 
I’m taking:
ECE 383 - Machine Language
Math 126 - Calculus II
Art 100 - Drawing
Drawing 100 - Sketching for Engineers
Fun, huh?
And if that wasn’t the most random post ever, I don’t know what is!
It’s that time of the year again! Please email me if you’re interested in exchanging Christmas cards. I saw some really cute ones at Books-A-Million that I’m going to pick up this weekend 
By the way, anyone can exchange cards with me… you don’t have to be a close online friend or anything. It’s a great way to make new friends! hehe
Finals are up in two weeks… so I won’t be around much until after those. Hopefully, I’ll get back online regularly after that. Maybe I’ll even put a new skin up 
Thanks to everyone who comments. During Christmas break, I’ll definitely repay the favor!
Hope everyone has a great weekend.
