Bookz

Like any other published material, it seems that books are relatively easy to find on the internet. Sci-fi easier than most. Although, it can be a bit of a bitch to try and read through a text file on your computer. I need to find some sort of decent text reader for mac or pick up a cheap pda.

Waaaazzzooo

Midterm number one in less than an hour, courtesy Database Management. Midterm number 2, this evening courtesy Operating Systems. And there was the Advanced UI project due this afternoon. It ended up looking pretty cool. The assignment was to provide an advanced visualization of a social network. We did this p2p visualization, although we ran into some problems trying to obtain real data. Waaaazzzooo was one of the names that could be easily seen.

There are times when you look at a calendar and say to yourself, “I should really be doing something to make that ominous cloud of marker scribbles in the middle of next week less ominousing.” And then you think, “Why?” Your brain replies, “It’s important to do well.” And you think, “Well, what am I going to remember 5, 10 or 25 years from now; studying really hard for those midterms about databases and operating systems or hanging out with a friend.” Then you’re thinking, “Gold.” But you also know that you will have to study at some point and as a result may not be getting as much sleep as you would have liked.
