I am Kyle's self-indulgence

(I had originally intended to post this last Friday, but Brendoman.com was experiencing technical difficulties. I then published it earlier this week, but it became lost in the transfer of the site over to a new webhost. Anyway, sorry for the re-post, but I just want a complete record of my writing. Call me anal.)

I'm blogging again, which can only mean that I am finished with my MAE portfolio. I feel a great sense of accomplishment and relief. Here's a breakdown of the portfolio by numbers:

95: Pages in the portfolio
60: Pages of all-new material I wrote for it
28: Days I spent writing it (sporadically)
24: Sources cited throughout the portfolio
3: Revisions made to the research component
4: Conferences my advisor has already urged me to present at
0: Requirements left to fulfill before I receive my Master's degree.

In case you're curious, the research I did was on using blogs in the classroom. If you want to read it, I'd be happy to send the research portion to you. If, for some insane reason, you want to see the whole portfolio, I can send that to you as well. Be warned, though: It's 5 MB large.

And of course, I must mention that Danny deserves the credit for setting up my class blogs for me, and for getting me interested in blogging in the first place.

Thanks, too, to Erika for being so patient with me as I've spent countless hours in the study behind stacks of papers and books.
