What I’m working on today 2023/02/05…

Trying something new. We’ll see if it sticks.

I need to finish the Final Paper Proposal for FMS380 at ASU. What I have so far:

Title
>The Disney Princess
>How a Generation of Women Learned to Be More than Just a Damsel in Distress

Thesis statement
>In the paper I will show how the rise of feminism has led to Disney creating characters that were heroes of their own stories and not just damsels on distress.

Sub Arugments
>Sub argument A: Frozen (1 and 2)
Sub argument B: Moana
Sub argument C: Turning Red

Still to do is write the introduction, outline, and annotate a bibliography with at least 3 sources, though I’d prefer to have closer to 5 just in case.

Finished up the current week for IFT 366 TCP/IP and Routing. Should probably start next week’s labs as there are almost 10 of them.

IFT 401 Capstone pt 1 is going as smoothly as I thought it would. The professor thinks it’s too much work and would require a massive backend. Really it’s a minimum of 2 tables in a DB. The first is for the list of users, the second is the data associated with that user. From there it’s API calls out to google maps and filling in the data in the tables. Shouldn’t be too hard, but then I’m not entirely sure what I’m doing.

side-note: Really wish I’d been blogging my classes as I’d finished each mnodule but the school really drives home plagiarism and at 2.5k a class I can’t really risk it.

I also need to get down to Floor and Decor and return some of the extra mortar and tile we bought. Should probably wait till the grout is done first so we know exactly what can be returned.

Update on the bathroom. Tile is in. The guys worked 14 hours yesterday and got everything but the grout done. It looks awesome. Can’t wait to go back to 2 bathrooms in this house.
