board game Object orient programming
Date: 2/01/2008

I was playing a fighting game with a bunch of people. I began to program a program that had a bunch of board games including checkers. I program a big class that contains all the board games in the program, I named that class every_game_class. then I program a new class named every_game_class2 that inherites every_game_class. I play checkers with a another person. while playing, I had an idea. my idea was put to every game in a different class that inherites every_game_class2. each class that inherites every_game_class2 defines the starting position for it's board game. In the class that has the checkers code, the asterisks in the checkers code defines the pieces on the board. but there was a bug in the code. since astrikes was only character used for the pieces, the starting position only contain white checkers on it and every checker was white. since the checkers code uses regular expressions, I was trying to figure out a good character to use for the red checkers that is not use in regular expressions that much. I was thinking about using the ! characters for the red checkers. I Then inherited a new class for each game from it's base class. now each game uses 2 different classes. but each game still contains a lot of code in every_game_class.







the traffic lights, the ships and the party
Date: 2/2/2008

I had a building and a website that goes with it. I said hi to a boy, he saids back "nice web site." he also says "there are some programs you can run to calculate stuff in the background"

a grandmother had a problem with the buttons on the wall, they won't talk when press. I figure out the problem, the volume knob on the wall was set to very quiet I adjust the volume and now the buttons talk when press.

I had a small train that goes the TV room, I get my stuff off that small train before it goes away. I IM TJ in the living room but I discover he is already here for the birthday party. He brought a oven for the other diet. I went outside with a bunch of people. They put butter on the cake and they light the cake. they show me the ships in the sky and the traffic lights. There were 2 traffic lights. one had 6 red lights and one had 6 yellow lights. the 2 traffic lights start with all their lights on. I watch the red and yellow lights turning off one by one, their lights flash before turning off. I also watch the ships in the night sky go by. I think that the traffic lights are counting the ships in the night sky.









I left my food in the car.
Date: 2/06/2008

we were in some building, emily was playing legos and puzzle pieces. there was puzzle pieces and legos all over the floor. when we left the building we pick up the puzzle pieces and legos off the floor.

it was friday and we were planning to buy some sleep package on the internet. we were also planning to go to writing class. I went in the car, ate some food in the car then went back in the house. I heard the writing class was canceled and I forgot to bring in my food in from the car.









mom's music and supermarket journals
Date: 2/08/2008

I saw some milk/yogurt in a pot, I ate an little bit of it with a spoon even through it was for emily to eat. I read my mom's music journal while I was crawling on her bed. each page made a random musical interval. I found some musical intervals from mom's music journal that are close to the perfect musical intervals. then I readed mom's supermarket journal on her bed. each page include supermarket recipe on it. one of the recipes said $900 on it. then I found a almost perfect musical interval from a page about the supermarket from mom's music journal. mom said "cool musical interval, lets go to the supermarket". in the supermarket I saw some cheese for sale. and some cauliflower on sale being washed by a machine.







the game in the kitchin
Date: 2/11/2008

I read some magazine that claims april fool's day would be on march 23 this year instead of april 1 I play the piano using only the white keys. I play in the Diatonic scale. I play a melody with a few notes. I transpose the melody up and down often, using scalar transposition

I play a game in the kitchin. I roll a ball and it bounces off the two bottles. every time the ball touches the bars, I get points. different bars score a different amount of points.
here is a picture of the game







unit that gives the day of the week
Date: 2/14/2008

I rotated the cube that the screen was showing and someone was watching. when one of the cube's side is showing, something turns on. I went to my room to read a magazine article for 15 minutes. there was a knob in my bed that control the temperature in my room. dad came and cool down the bedroom a bit by turning the knob a bit. dad said he like classic music. I had a unit that gave me the day of week of that date in that year. I remove the computer case and open up the computer to install that unit inside the computer. it has cable that connects somewhere in the computer. the unit had a bunch of wires on the back. the wires were arranged like a calendar







cardboard houses and each song is like a cake
Date: 2/15/2008

I had gaint cardboard boxes in my backyard. The boxes look like houses. we went in them and we pretend the boxes had rooms inside them putting lines on the floor. we went to a building to meet jen. we talk to jen for a hour. we builted a small house inside a big room for jen. Now we tried to figure out how to install a toilet and a sink inside the small bathroom inside the small house. There was a bathroom with a working toilet near the small house. I had an idea. my idea was to connect the plumming from that bathroom to the bathroom in the small house. the only problem with that idea is that I do not know how to connect plumming together. so I said "at least there is a bathroom near the small house".

I Forgot about it and I went Downstairs. Downstairs, They were serving cakes. I was offered a cake, I could choose which one I want. then I was offered a sample from any song in the store. each song was like a different cake. each song sample was like a piece from a cake. The song I choosed was a song about going to the moon. a screen popup. the screen had a grid with squares on it and it's background picture showed a spaceship going to the moon. each square on the grid presents a part/sample of the song. I Choose entire song by choosing all the samples of the song. but I fail to download the entire song and I get an error message. someone told that store only lets you listen to a few parts of the song for free and it gives an error message each time you tried to download the entire song for free. they also said "if want the entire song then buy it." I ate another cake then I went home.







the numbers on my shirts and a bannana
Date: 2/16/2008

I was playing a computer game where you move a character around a map looking for objects

A van came to my house to return a lost suitcase. first they select someone else's suitcase by misteak then they select our suitcase instead.

I was runing a program on the old apple computer. the program showed steve jobs the CEO of apple and other people in the team using low-res graphics. The program even showed them talking and you can hear them talk.

I told TJ that I was planning to plant a Tree in my backyard. TJ showed my the blank paper in the car and said "I bought this paper, so you can take notes."

there was a video showing your how to reach the body-asleep mind-awake state and have a OBE by relaxing your whole body.

I was having a picnic that included almond butter near a small house.

while in the bathroom, I heard that red flashlight's light ranges from orange-red to deep-red mario had red flashlight that emits red orange light. he opens up a banana and shows me how you can tell if a banana tastes good just by using a red flashlight.

I was watching a movie of myself acting like someone else. in the movie, I was going up in an elevator, riding in a car then waiting in line to use the ATM machine. When it was my turn to use the ATM machine, I did not know my account number, but I thought they were somewhere on one of my shirts. In my apartment, I found some numbers on some of my shirts. now I plan to try each number out to see if it's my account number.









the lock and the planet modeling program
Date: 2/17/2008

In the parking lot, someone named Bill had a car without a roof. I check the floor of Bill's car to see if there are any coins. I did not find any coins and Bill left the parking lot. So I walk home. I reach an intersection. While waiting at the intersection, I heard dad's voice and the intersection change into a kitchin. Then I was at home, in the kitchin, near the sink. I drank a glass of water. I heard someone watch a show about the cosmos. The show said entony/heat is always increasing, even when universe restarts in a new big bang. The show had cool space music playing in the background.

I had a false waking, the computer was next to my bed. I thought about a hot bed and a cold bed.

I had 2 locks, one on the clothes door and one near the bathtub. I opened both locks. The lock near the bathtub had coins inside. That lock accepted any coin including plastic coins. I unlocked that lock to get the coins out.

I had a program that lets you model your own planet with trees, building and other stuff included. The program only drew the stuff that was on the visible side of the planet. The program lets you setup orbits for the planets. Example orbit 1 included a big planet in a small orbit and a small planet in big orbit. Example orbit 2 include a planet and its moon. The program's tip said "if 2 of your planets are the same size then you can put them in the same orbit." The program models rocket ships. when a rocket ship returns to a model planet, it vibrates causing the computer to read from its hard disk.







gaint rock vallery with maps
Date: 2/18/2008

I ate eggs at someone's house, I notice how small their kitichen is.

A boy drinks a glass of water in the bathroom. There is a another glass of water on the counter near the sink. He tells me the story of how he misteaks his father's glass of water for his glass of water.

There was a gaint rock valley people droved through in their cars. it takes 15 minutes to drive through 1/4 of that rock valley. The rocks had map pictures on them. The lamps project the map images on the rocks using light. Hikers who walk near that rock valley notice their shadow on the rock valley and the map on their clothes.







the different shapes on 2x2x2 grid of points
Date: 2/20/2008

I had an idea, I was of a 2x2x2 grid of points. The grid is 3d and has 8 points it is use to build shapes by connecting the points together. For example you can build cubes, prisms and pyramids by connecting the points together. There was a triangle chart showing the all possible shapes that could be built. The chart like a triangle made out of bunch of connected dots. The dots were connected by a bunch of lines. the chart showed the same shapes rotated in different angles. it counted them as different shapes connected by lines. it was like you could rotate the shape just by following the lines. I thought about the same idea extend in 4d using a 2x2x2x2 grid of points. I had an idea for more shapes. I was thinking about a 3x3x3 grid of points for 3D and a 3x3x3x3 grid of points for 4D.
click here to see the shapes

It was lunchtime and there was a jar of almond butter in the refrigator. mom beg me to lock the almond butter. so I lock the almond butter in a box because she want me to do that. mom want me to lock the almond butter because she was trying to lose weight. I ate an avacoda for lunch. Antonia left early at 12:30 and I was planning to play music for her tommorrow.

I was going on a train with TJ. There was music playing on the train and people singing. I visit a mall in the train with TJ. I went to TJ's apartment. In TJ's apartment. I choose to serve my own chicken. I serve myself a chicken leg then I take some chicken meat from another chicken leg and I put the chicken meat inside that chicken leg.

It was evening and I was going to night class and waiting in line to enter class. they serve dinner, but mom was not around to ask and I was not sure if their food is on the SCD diet. so I ask them to exchange the food for some coconut milk. they give me a big glass of coconut milk. then I tell them I want less coconut milk in a smaller glass. so I exchange the big glass for the small glass I drank the coconut milk. later in the night, I was on their computer. I was installing some software from floppy disks. while I was installing it, I found some ants on one of the floppy disks.









I download setup.exe from the internet
Date: 2/22/2008

I was thinking about an idea were you buy the cheapest food from the supermarket and sell it a little bit higher. but that idea only makes a very small profit because people would choose to buy directly from supermarkets and get the lower price.

I was burning some data files onto a DVD-R. I am transerfing files between my computer and my friend's computer. I am wondering if my friend has a DVD burning program.

At my friend's computer, I download a file from the internet. the file name was setup.exe. I rename setup.exe to setup.zip when I tried to extract the files directly without running the setup program, I fail and got an winzip error message. I even tried writing a perl script to extract the files, but that failed too. finally I rename setup.zip back to setup.exe. I ran setup.exe to install the new program.

I did a little of computer programming then I went to have dinner at 3:15 in the morning. I ate an avocoda for dinner then went back to bed. In bed, I read an book call "how to have OBEs and LDs using your brain"









my old cassette tape and the dancing moon
Date: 2/26/2008

I had cauliflower with garlic for lunch then I fix a commic book by put it's comic page back together. The pages were mix Together with other papers. So I separate the pages from the other papers. Then emily or I went to bed at dawn.

We had a machine that played old media formats. It had some cables that connect somewhere to send output data. Maybe they connect to a computer using USB. The machine play and record old cassette tapes. The cassette tapes were smaller than VCR cassette tapes and bigger than audio cassette tapes. The machine let you record data from an old media format onto an old cassette tape. Ee check to make sure there is no data on that old cassette tape. Ee discover that there is music on that old cassette tape. The begining of the tape told us that this music tape was found on the sidewalk near the city streets. A group did put these tapes on sidewalks so someone would pick up a tape and listen to their music. I listen the music on tape and said "this music sounds popping"

I was riding in the car with mom. Me and mom saw an strange object in the sky. I saw the moon dance in the sky. It jumps to different positions in an area of the sky. The old positions it had been in just fade away. Mom saw that strange object in the sky and told me to take a picture of it. I got out my paper-thin camera. But I miss it, by the time I was ready, it was already gone. When I arrive to visit mara and TJ. I told them about the object in the sky.









the Joke story about colors
Date: 2/28/2008

I was playing a computer game. In the game you control a Egyptian who navigates a tomb to get to the afterlife. She meets some ghosts on the way. It was 2d game where the screen scroll. the game had multiple levels. on slashdot I read a post about strange objects. one of objects was a orange red saucer that had blades on top that spin around like an helicopter.

TJ came to my house. he had a twin. I meet TJ's twin. I said hi to him. We went outside. It was night. There was two moons in the sky. I heard that there will be two lunar eclipses tonight. I saw a wire between the trees. I went under that wire to follow them. I, TJ and his twin arrived to the gas station's store.

In the gas station's store, I was reading a book filled with jokes. There was a joke story in the book. each sentence in the story had a different color right next to it. every sentence repeated what the last sentence said using the name of the different color right next to it. So the only thing different about these sentences was the names of the different colors they used. I saw a cow ordering beef and a pig ordering pork.

I had a false walking, I saw someone outside towing their own truck away. I went downstairs, I walk back and forth in the hallway thinking about my dream. I just remember that I drop a penny in the gas station's store. I am trying to remember why. then I went into the living room and saw someone with a broom found a penny under the rug. now I remember why, I drop the penny to imagine stuff. by imagining stuff, I can daydream about stuff.







the stadium and the salt story
Date: 2/29/2008

we went to a Stadium. We saw someone named tim swim in the water with a whale. back at the hotel, I ate fish and it was Thursday night and we were planning to leave tommorrow. Our room was a mess, and we were deciding to pack tonight or tommorrow. Back at home 3 days later. I told a story to mom. The story went like this "in the begining, It was legal to sell salt anywhere one day they made it illegal to sell salt outside the Stadium. people can only sell salt inside the Stadium. one day they switch the law around. now it's legal to sell salt outside the Stadium. but not in the Stadium. one day it once again legal to sell salt anywhere the end."







I broke the circuit board of the hard drive
Date: 2/29/2008

I had a small black and white TV. I had a few noisy channels with it. I open up The case of computer. I broke the circuit board of hard drive by actident. I tried putting the 2 broken parts of the circuit board back together. I attached a monitor or The small TV to computer. It boot up OK. But when windows start to load, I smell something burning. I saw smoke in my computer case. I turn off the power quickly. I thought to myself maybe I attached the 2 broken parts in the wrong way. this time I try to attached them back in the right way. while trying to attached them, I broke another circuit board in the computer by actident. I went to mom's and dad's bedroom. They were with each other. I told them "the computer is broken, call a computer repair place." a week later mom and dad showed me the new baby.







playing a game where I was a red ghost
Date: 2/23/2008

we were moving to CA for a year. I talk the people that are staying in my house for a year. I told them every time I ask them for my data, they should fetch it from my CDs and send the data to me using email.

I was playing a game with grandma that was also a jigsaw puzzle. each player kept it's own pieces hidden from other players. on every turn, a player connects a piece to the puzzle and gets a new piece from the draw pile. emily was playing too, she is connecting pieces and now the snow castle in the puzzle is showing.

I had a friend and he was leaving. he asked for some salt water. I put some water and a lot of salt in a glass. I mix up the water and salt together. the friend complain "that's too much salt in the glass". I pour out half of the salt water and only added water back in to make it less saltly. I kept on repeating it until he said "just right."

I pretend that I was a red ghost. I was wearing a custume. I was running around the house playing a game where I fight bosses and collect things. Other people were playing too, I saw an ghostes of different colors including a yellow ghost. I only fight bosses on a few levels, most levels I just collect things. emily was reading a magizine about the game and it had page that showed the different levels the game has.
