Very 1st attempt at posting

So as the title suggests this is my first attempt at blogging about my iFoundry experience. With my discussion portion of the course coming up, I can't say that I'm looking forward to going back to class. But to make a judgement so early on in the program would probably be a bad idea. So far I've been to several discussions and several meetings. All of which are at least interesting enough to keep my attention, and they do provide some helpful information. The discussion sections more than the meetings in my opinion. Because as I see it, the aims that the iTeams have set seem slightly out of proportion. Plus, those meetings steal another two hours a week from my homework time. Maybe as the semester goes on and all the iTeams find a solid foundation and definition our goals will become a little more realistic and manageable.

Looking to the future is what keeps me working through the program. I'm not suggesting that there aren't some great students and faculty members involved in iFoundry, just that the extra time and effort isn't exactly paying off just yet. Speaking of time and effort, it's looking like I may have to cut this entry short. With my iFoundry class approaching, I have to get some calculus finished. The free pizza I'm sure to receive later is my only motivation as of right now.
