Random Photos and Random Dinner (20/1/11)

 

At this point, I can barely remember some of these days, but here are the photos I took this day.

Of all the classes I take in Austria, only two of them are actually in Gaming.  The other three are teleconferenced.  I sit in a desk, set up the camera and large TV, and “call” the identical TV in Steubenville, and I “sit in” on the computer courses I need to take.

I also do videoconferencing as a job in Gaming.  I help to videoconference an Intermediate Greek class and a Physical Science class in addition to my classes.  The Physical Science class is particularly interesting and exciting; I believe it is the first time the entire class is in Gaming, and we are teleconferencing the professor from main campus!

Look at all that snow.  Only two days, and it was coming down pretty hard!  It looked awesome.

All of the above pictures were taken very early in the morning on Thursday.  This was the first time I had my Wednesday night class!  Unfortunately, the rest of the day wasn’t so exciting, except for dinner…

Although I don’t have a picture, I also recall having a challenging moment at dinner.  I picked up what looked like a coin of meat paste wrapped in tortilla.  It was only when I had sat down that I realized the tortilla part was actually… tripe.  I didn’t want to look like a bad American, so I ate the piece, bit by bit.  It wasn’t bad, but my mental associations made it difficult.  The meat paste helped, though.  :-)

  1. I love hearing about all of your adventures... and the teleconferencing sounds like a nice piece of technology!
