[DupySite] Redesign Sneak Peek

If this website is getting too boring for you, take a look at KylanRobinson.com. This is a taste of what's to come, and is only a small portion of what I'm starting to call "The Dupyshon Network" or "The Dupyshon Universe" or "The DupyVerse" or "The Dupyshon Metaverse." Obviously there's still a lot of work to be done, I haven't even settled on a moniker yet!

[Kylan's Blog] Opening Ceremonies

Last night I watched the opening ceremonies for the 2008 Beijing Olympics. It was interesting to see all of the teams carrying flags and representing their countries, and I was amazed to see so many foreign leaders in attendance. My family and I wondered if the hundreds of fireworks were affecting the already bad air quality in the city.

I really like the Olympics, so it will be fun to see all of the sporting events over the next month or so. I'm rooting for the USA, Rwanda, the Czech Republic, and India. In particular, I'd really like to see the decathlon because American Diana Pickler, a former Cougar, is competing in this event.

[DupySite] Site Redesign

Right now I'm working on a complete redesign of Dupyshon.com. That's why the activity on this blog has been pretty stagnant lately. Stay tuned, this will definitely be the best iteration yet of my website.

[Kylan's Blog] August Sprint

During the month of August, my group at SEL is doing a sprint. That means that all of the members of the group set "ambitious goals" for themselves and work extra hard (AKA overtime) to meet them. Doesn't sound very fun, but it helps keep everything on schedule.

[Kylan's Blog] The Kite Runner

I just finished reading The Kite Runner, a novel by Khaled Hosseini. The subject matter was depressing, but the book was very well-written. It gives the reader a good feel for Afghanistan's culture, history, and current situation.

[Kylan's Blog] Junior Miss at the Hospital

On Wednesday night, one of our Junior Misses hurt her wrist at practice. We decided to play it safe and take her to the emergency room for an X-ray. Turns out that it was just a bad sprain, but the doctors outfitted her with a pretty serious looking splint. It's the kind you have to wear in the shower and everything. For the competition, she'll be allowed to do a modified fitness routine so she won't have to put too much weight on that wrist.
