As you may or may not have noticed, my presence on this blog has been zero in the past several days. Part of the reason for this is that I’ve been waiting to post to tell everyone what I classes I registered for. The larger part is probably that I’ve been pretty busy.<\/p>\n
I still haven’t officially registered for all my classes yet. I’m official in Molecular Cell Biology and Introduction to Statistics. Stats is pretty much just something to take that I think my be useful, and I’m actually considering dropping it, but I dunno. Molecular Cell Biology is a nice class I guess. It goes towards my major, but I think it’s going to be pretty hard and it definitely is taking up a lot of time (2 labs a week).<\/p>\n
I’m also going to take Evolution and Algorithms and Data Structures. I’ve got a slip of paper that says I can get added into these classes, although the Registrar doesn’t know this yet, so it’s not official. I tried to turn in my paper a couple of times but they foiled me by being inflexible and stupid. I think they’ll be out of excuses by Monday though.<\/p>\n
Evolution I absolutely must take to graduate next year, so that’s that. Algorithms and Data Structures is the only CS class next year that is isn’t conflicted with Evolution or MCB. It has a corequisit that I’m having waved, so it might be difficult, and I might drop it. I think it will be useful information though, so I’m going to at least try it I think.<\/p>\n
Moving past my registration issues we have my current class issues. Today I had a 10 page research paper due in Cognitive Neuroscience, a test in Calculus, and the biggest program I’ve ever had to write by far in CS. Paper is meh, the test went ok, I dunno, we’ll see. I almost got the program done. Frankly I think I did a lot more work than most people in the class. However, there are some congenital flaws in my program which prevents it from performing all the required functions. I told the professor I’d try to fix that over the weekend, and he’ll probably give me some credit for any success I have.<\/p>\n
Part of the reason I have these flaws in my program is I’ve never written a program of this scale before. I think a large part however is that I tried to start the program before I had all the information, at the professors encouraging. So I’d already laid ground work in the program before I new what it was going to have to ultimately look like, and I certainly hadn’t learned all the planning skills they’ve taught me since. Oh well. Regardless of my grade I will now have a deeper understanding of the importance of program planning.<\/p>\n
So I’ve been working on all of that stuff for the last few days. Today after I finished programming, and went to 8’s and found her missing, I returned to my place to find a ride to the card store in Salem to be available. I’d never been but went and it was swell. I bought a starter pack for a game that’s new to me and everyone I know, called Hecatomb<\/a>. It’s similar to magic, but cooler. \ud83d\ude1b I also picked up Guillotine for LRPC, so it was a somewhat officially productive trip. We got back later than I expected, but 8 made plans, so she didn’t care. So since then I’ve been playing Hecatomb w\/ my roommates and having glorious fun.<\/p>\n Tomorrow I hope to do some of that programming I mentioned above. Even better would be D&D, but I think our DM is busy for some reason. I have some small other homework I will do as well maybe. There’s also a free showing of Transamerica, which is a movie I know nothing about but which 8 wishes to see, so I’ll go. In lieu of that there’s the LAN at Ody’s to entertain me. That would probably be too much entertainment anyway.<\/p>\n 8 is still missing. I might have to sleep w\/o saying good night. \ud83d\ude1b As you may or may not have noticed, my presence on this blog has been zero in the past several days.
