Fell through again

Every time I promise myself (which apparently means nothing these days) that I’ll blog about things or update my ‘content’. That, and many other things. I still have the nasty, nasty habit of doing nothing with my time.

It’s been a month now of the school term. I’ve had (I think) 5 total assignments now. I definitely didn’t start those early either. I’m supposed to do some volunteer work that was started in bloody May that I still haven’t done. Sighhh I’m a waste of space.

School is going well so far. The math class I’m in is a bit over my head, but I think it’s getting better. It could be because the prof barely understands what he’s writing on the board himself. Fail. The three other classes I’m taking are all computer science classes. They are of… varying awesomeness. One is a heavy programming course, one a theory on data structures and run-time analysis, and the other logic course. All three profs have their many faults. The best prof is the one that doesn’t know anything beside the slides he’s reading off of, the other two can barely speak English. The data structures prof pronounces words like ‘complexity’ as ‘compressity’ and ‘graph’ as ‘gwaff’.

On the plus side: I’m going to the gym to lift weights with a bunch of big guys. They’re not that massive I guess, but they can lift a bunch of weight so therefore big in comparison to me. I’m mostly the only girl in the weight gym when we go. I think my total for bench press, squats, and dead lift is around 300lbs now. I feel more rigid and stronger too; I can actually see my biceps!

There were other big things… I think. Every time something cool happens I say to myself: Yeah I’ll go blog about that! It doesn’t happen of course. If this blog starts getting updated once a week, assume it’s someone impersonating me.

I’m totally addicted to the newish Facebook app – Café World. The name is a little lame (‘World’? ohplease). You basically have your little café, and make meals. Random bots and AI-controlled friends of yours walk in and stuff their faces full of your stuff you just made. The game is slow compared to Farmville — it doesn’t seem well balanced at the moment. It seems to take a long time to earn the currency, yet decorations are pretty expensive. Oh! Here’s something exciting: The company that made these games (Farmville, Mafia Wars, Café World), Zynga, is coming to U Waterloo to give an information session for co-op students applying for jobs. I’ll definitely be going, and asking questions about why their flash optimization seems to suck. It chews up way too much CPU for this stuff.

That’s it for now, I’ll just continue staying up all night now. I want to get some assignment stuff done before going home for the weekend. The biggest downside is that it’s so cold as I’m not warm in bed… :(
