Brian the Busy Bee
I would like to apologize to all of my regular readers. For the past week or so, I've been too covered up with work to continually update my blog as I would like to do. My math and computer science classes are requiring more and more reading as I go through them (not to mention the 535 page Italian novel I'm reading for English) Just to give you a taste of what I get to learn, I've made this picture showing what we learned today in Abstract. It's using universal and existential quantifiers to label a popular song. Can anybody tell me what song it is? Hopefully, I'll get to blog about more exciting things in the next few days, but for now, I need to get cracking on this homework

On yet another of our infamous adventures, Brian, Shawn, and I found this exciting new get away location. At only minutes away from campus, Mossy Creek Caves has the peace and beauty that any over-worked college student can enjoy! This area contains a gorgeous lagoon of teal water and it is surrounded by lucious foliage. Hiking trails range in difficulty from moderate to difficult.
Two caves are located directly off of the water (only one of which is accessible by foot)
Although it is greatly unrecommended, boating and fishing are possible leisure activities. Rock throwing is a nice alternative to these activities. This consists of tossing small stones, found on the edges of the gorge, into the great depths of the lagoon. This alternative may extend your visit to Mossy Creek Caves as it is not yet determined if the water is safe to come into direct contact with human skin. It also makes a nice "ker-ploooosh" sound :) The local residents have marked their territory with artwork along the upper edges of the rock face. For information of the exact location of this exotic get away, please leave a comment and I'll get back to you. Tours may become avaliable in the event of actual interest. (group rates available)

Happy Shawnaka!
Today is the fifth and final day of Shawnaka :) This five day event was created after Shawn decided he wanted a holiday for him.
We celebrated with the traditional Shawnora, and we played mini board games. We also watched the Numa Numa kid and the Star Wars Kid movies! We had Shawnaka (Zebra) Cakes and water!!! Yay for Shawnaka

The Band Blues
As most of you know, the Brian Cox Quartet was created only about a week and a half ago. After the band was created, the question was brought up as to who the lead singer of the band is. There is a very simple answer to this question and that is that there is no lead singer at all. In fact, there is absolutely no singing in this band, it's completely instrumental (for the simple fact that I can't sing) As this question was easily answered, there was also a little bit of jealousy between Brian, the lead guitarist, and Brian, the ukuleleist. It seems that Brian the ukuleleist felt like he had the better playing ability of the two. This posed a small problem for the band, however, there is good news! You get to help choose the better of the two! Isn't that exciting? I'm leaving the choice up to you, as my faithful blog readers, to choose who should become the official "leader" of the band. So, before you go off and make your decision based on looks, or something foolish like that, why don't you take a look at this little dity :)

P.S. I'm not schiophrenic for those who are wondering

Just recently, I've learned that I'm in English 301 with both Mr. Shawn and Ms. Brittany!!! I've never had a class with either of these two fantastic people, but how exciting to know that we'll finally be in one together :) I know, English isn't the best subject in the world, but we are going to make it one of the best classes in the world! I just wanted to share this fantastic news with everyone :)

Back to School Supplies
Today, my mommy and I ventured down to Carson-Newman to buy my books for the upcoming semester. I got lots of big expensive books, including a 5 pounder for Intro to Algorithms. Also, my Papaw Coxes gave me a paint set yesterday! So, I'll be making some pretty pictures soon (hopefully) :) If anybody has any good ideas of what I should paint, let me know! Ms. Lindsey has requested a pretty pansy, so that's already on my list :) Only a few more days until school starts again, so I hope everyone's ready!

Pretty Poker Puppies
On a previous post, I mentioned that I finally had time to work on a pretty picture. Well, I finally finished it! It took a while, and alot of black coloring pencil, but it's finally complete! Even though I didn't come up with the idea myself (I got it off of a shirt) I'm still pretty proud of it :) I just thought I'd share my picture with everyone. Hope everyone is having a lovely 2006

Introducing...
While sitting in my living room and watching tv, the idea struck me to start a band. This isn't any ordinary band, it's the Brian Cox Quartet! Featuring Brian on keyboard, Brian on the bongos, Brian on lead guitar, and Brian on back up ukulele :) Hopefully in the future an album will come out, and I'll be sure to let everyone know when it's ready! For now, the band will be restricted to my basement.
