A rant about Everything ... and nothing

Okay, so they 'updated' the whole blogger system and the login, but honestly, its just a headache and WAY too much work to try and figure out exactly how to log in, post a new entry, etc. I guess its my own damn fault for not blogging for about 2 months straight !!

Gawd, I hope someone out there is crazy enough to still be reading my entries... although the idea of just ranting to myself is rather entertaining in a way.

Enough of these musings. So, I am in the middle of exam month, woo hoo, gawd, I want to die. Wrote one for my Software Engineering class today, hopefully I passes it cause it was damn hard. I don't even know why I am taking the damned course. I had these grand ideas of minoring in Computer Science back 4 months ago, and took the course because it was required... as well as a math course I am taking right now. Guess what ? They are both kicking my ass royally ! Excellent. Effectively I just paid the University of Victoria $1,000 for these two courses in return for a barely-passing grade, two second-year credits when I am in THIRD year, and a constant look of pity from both my professors... absolutely awesome.

Suffice to say, I am no longer minoring in CSC.

Argh, I have another final tomorrow, for my class: 'European Economic Integration' which is actually quite interesting. I am also trying to organise some sort of summer studies schedule that allows me to also go away for a week or so this summer. I am quickly learning that 'vacation', 'new job' and 'summer studies' are items that may not all schedule well together over the next 4 months... hrm. I have also decided, about 3 minutes ago, that I want to go on a road-trip down to California with the BF. I think it would be grand fun, maybe bring a girlfriend or two along, and I am now 21, so I could go to pubs and drink along the way, hurrah !!

Hurrah indeed...

So because I am Computer Science and Mathematics Graduate, I can only say, yeah I feel your pain. Comp Sci was a very hard degree and it caused me a LOT of stress. I'd recommend staying away from that shit. Plus the way the world is moving now, all development will be outsourced at some point, it's not a field that will look promising in a decade or two.

Are you in California now? I dont know if I ever mentioned to you about my roadtrip to Cali last year. Here are some pics taken from that trip!

I'm glad I didn't break your record. But it was close!!! I didn't write any block for 1 month and 20 days!

Hope all's well!
