Fun With Wordage

I’ve been really busy lately, hence posting is a bit light. I plan to pickup soon. I’ve been working on many things.
On a side note, switching programming languages (Visual Basic .NET, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, PHP, Perl) all in one day can be very confusing at times. I’ve been finding myself mixing up [...]

I’ve got 1 more final tomorrow evening, and I’m pretty much done (one assignment left, but that’s no big deal). Sorry for recycling old images, but that one really seems pretty accurate.
I think it’s bed time, so I can get up early and enjoy some more studying.

While some will be at the Firefox Summit, or enjoying the snow expected this week around here, I’m getting ready for some finals. Needless to say, my availability will be limited at some times during the next few weeks. So if you don’t get a reply from me, don’t think I’m ignoring you, [...]

Woke up this morning, went to my Enterprise Computing class (an amusingly basic programming class I was encouraged to take because it’s VisualBasic .NET), to do this silly problem where using a loop calculate how long it would take to pay for payment making wage per hour:

VB.net [Show Styled Code]:

Well we got no choice
All the girls and boys
Makin all that noise
‘Cause they found new toys
Well we can’t salute ya
Can’t find a flag
If that don’t suit ya
That’s a drag
School’s out for summer
School’s out forever
School’s been blown to pieces
No more pencils
No more books
No more teacher’s dirty looks
Well we got no class
And we got no principles (principals)
And [...]

Spent most of the afternoon working on my Principles of System Design Project (crossing another off the todo list).
Also hacked up a really cool toy that you will see hopefully in the next couple of days.
Next up is a History of American Art paper.

I got my Mac Mini back today. Bliss. Airport Extreme/Bluetooth card for $99+tax. I decided to officially name the system “mini me”. I’m having fun already, though I got to get some sleep, and go back to school tomorrow… looking forward to the next time I get to play with my [...]

Every so often it becomes necessary to make a todo list public so I actually feel motivated. Without further delay:

Finally write that cheesy International Business Paper (4 pages double spaced, on pretty much anything) [4/14/05]
Finally write that History of American Art Paper (no clue how long, more complex, and really boring)… this is long [...]

Just to give the heads up: finals are approaching, this means that my time is going to become more and more limited in the next few weeks. I highly recommend anyone who needs me for something start leaning a little bit now and make sure it’s on my radar… or you may be [...]

Just looked at my calendar. In 5 weeks finals are upon me. That means in 6 weeks. Summer is here!
Oh yea, Happy Easter.
