Today was boring. I had a grand total of one class in the lab. And not a lot else going on. A bit of my morning was spent downloading a bunch of PDFs that one of the SPED teachers wanted. I also helped out with second grade reading groups and that went pretty well. Nothing of note.

In the afternoon I worked on my student directory and made absolutely no progress. Still can't get my report to only show the filtered records. I also spent some time trying to get a couple kids logged into their laptops and then connected to the internet. I got one of them on and had no success with the other. And I think the one I got on was more of an accident. There seem to be at least five kids who don't have the right privileges or something to log into the wireless network. So that was kind of a fail but I ended the day with a win. I helped one of the teachers get pictures from her computer onto her iPad. Apparently plugging the iPad in and dragging the pictures from the computer onto the iPad didn't work and I didn't want to try it again in case it did work, so instead I just emailed all the pictures to her so she could open them on the iPad and then save them to the iPad album. And then for good measure I added a couple printers to the desktop computer her student intern uses because the intern mentioned something about it the other day.

After work I came home and downloaded the Battlefield 4 beta for PC. I didn't actually have time to play it before going to work at the theater but I wanted to get it done today so I wouldn't have to wait on it tomorrow.

Tonight at the theater I almost finished a book, came up with ideas for the flower I have to decorate for school, and I watched Gravity. The visual effects in Gravity are incredible and I bet it would look amazing in IMAX 3D. As for the movie part of the movie, not just the tech demo, I really liked it. The story could have been better but I still liked it. I'd watch it again.
