New Year, New Semester --> New Blog !

Welcome to the new semester #LAWS115, and welcome to Centennial #PRLG702!

I'm starting this blog because I need to learn more about the new internet.  I dipped my big toe into Twitter (@ScottTanaka) recently, but I still have lots to learn on that front.

Hopefully blogging will help me share ideas with you that do not necessarily belong to a particular course.

First things first:  there are several coffee outlets on campus, with different pros and cons depending on your needs.  If you're new to the college, I suggest you start observing when the lineups peak at certain locations and plan accordingly so you can always arrive in class on time.

 -- and remember:  it's unconvincing to claim that you cannot be on time for your classes when you're holding a steaming hot drink because anyone who's been around the college understands that the line up situation most often necessarily means that, but for your caffeine fix, you could've arrived in the classroom earlier!

You can find out more about food on campus here: http://www.campusdish.com/en-US/CA/Centennial/Locations/ProgressCampus.htm.  If you want something simple, oftentimes you will be better off avoiding the huge lineup at the Tim's in C-block.

Last semester I resolved to bring tea in a thermos to avoid the lineups altogether, but it's taking me some time to find my ideal not-too-big-not-too-small thermos.

Nerdy is so cool nowadays (see this) so hit the ground running by starting good academic habits from day 1!
