For those of you who haven't already heard, I'm back in school for the semester and am back to being as busy as ever. =] All things considered, I'm enjoying this semester immensely already and have high hopes for its continuation!
I think that the most exciting order of business is that I finally finished the loft that I've been constructing for the larger part of my winter break and some of the first weeks of the semester. Here I've included pictures of me working on it and assembling it in the dorm.

| Booyah! |
As you can see, I chose a half A-frame style. I wanted to be able to do hanging sit-ups from the front of the frame (yeah, working on that physique...hahahaha) and because it provides incredible forward stability. I added elbow braces in the back to keep it from rocking and the design is sturdier than the trees it was built out of.
I love sleeping on it, and am slowly proving the only one who can get into it on my own (it's incredibly high - although I can't stand up underneath it, 99% of the people I know can). I can still sit up straight on it, which is a success in my mind. In short, I kind of love it. Future plans? Hammock strung underneath and a digital projector to turn the adjacent wall into a movie theatre.

| Sorry for the orientation, but tada! |
As for everything else, I'm doing really well. I'm way into the swing of things and am for the most part just living every day as it comes. I need to get to sleep for now, but as my adventures progress, I'll do better about getting you all posted.
I'm Jonathon, and this is my life.
