Oy! All you smart folks using big words!


I'm getting a 2 year degree because I knew I could:
a) never pass smart classes
b) do more than 2 (or 3 years in my case cuz I drug it out
) years of school
c) take boring classes & further my education that much

It is for programming code. Basically is something like:

Class names for UI components should start with IDC and should be proper cased with each word separated with underscores.

All indentation should be 3 characters per tab.

It makes everyone code the same but is the most tedious documentation to write and read.

Woot! I am having way too much fun sending the drinks around! Did I miss anyone?
I'm glad you're coding and not me. That sounds like my definition of not-fun.

Trouble in the form of Dynah has decided to arrive. She's such a puddle of purring cuteness!...squirmy though!

Edit: btw, we can all blame Calico2222 for starting the round of drinks lol

i've personally always liked Stranger, altho i like almost all of Heinlein's stuff. but for a cat lover, i'd recommend The Door Into Summer.

Speaking of books, I borrow Merle's Door from the library a short while ago. So far, I find it interesting.

Next to the World's Largest 6-pack
I just have a bit more to do on an Ethics paper, then I'm going to troubleshoot/redo an extra credit programming assignment. I know I can get it to work.
After that I have some math to finish up. Programming is the class I enjoy most (good thing as I'm going for being a programmer
). The other 3 classes I have are boring/busy work. Thank goodness I don't have anymore gen eds after this semester. I think I'd scream.

As you can see I'm procrastinating a little on TCS.

Homework avoidance here!

I have a unit test tomorrow. I have been looking at my notes on assessing the cardiac and respitory system, and also on the drugs we need to know. And you know what- I just can't look at it anymore!

I also have a skills practical on Tuesday.

And I have to re-do a dosage calculation test sometime this week b/c I didn't pass it the first time (sigh). I hate math. And the reason I didn't pass it was that I forgot all of my conversion factors (how many tsp are in a mL etc) and how many mL's are in a L. I have 3 tries to pass it. If I don't pass it in 3 tries, they can ask me to leave the program (even though I passed clinical last semester, and I'm a solid C student in theory)

Now if this isn't the best, I'm using TCS to research for my homework!
I'm doing legit homework & playing on TCS at once!

They say that actuaries are some of the most satisfied persons in their careers. I guess if the shoe fits the statistical size, buy it.

I admire statisticians. Really.

No homework avoidance here, just work avoidance.
Well, I have done most of my tasks for today so I am taking it easy


That stats assignment was handed in this morning and I think I did horribly.
Oh well. I don't love that subject. And I dropped off my lab books so hopefully I did okay.


Now I think I will read my new Jodi Picoult book, while having my cup of tea.
