  Today I mannaged to finish my first assignment for the Da Vinci course. It was making connections between me, Da Vinci, and Cristopher Langan (the smartest man in the USA). I find this course very fun. Also today during my break I found a software to make start stop animation. It was awesome and I will post the video later. Other than that the day went as usual.

          Today I managed to finish the "form" of my composition. In Spanish I only had time to do the written part. Guitar didn't go so good because my callus on my thumb was bugging me. I finished my Mindstorms 3D digital model and it looks  good. At school Mr. Wedel told e a tone of stuff for composing, but of coarse we took too long, and I didn't have a chance to look at the Da Vinci course. I also made a neat program in Visual Basics.

Here is the picture of the cool program I made.

This is a drawing program.
