I want a centrifuge to make unmixed drinks.

Well school’s been out for a while. Obligitory grade post:

Class Title Grade
Computer Science 562 01 Pinciples of Operating Systems A-
Computer Science 563 01 Basic Systems Administration Lab A+
Computer Science 567 01 Pinciples of Computer Networks C-
English 105 05 Introduction to Narritive A-
Math 532 01 Graph Theory B-

This means that my semester GPA is a 3.05, or a B average, not too bad. I’m disappointed by the C- in Networks, but it was a “Revenge of the non-programmers” class — everyone who hated programming did well. I’m (obviously) not in that category, nor did I find much of the information useful.

I’m still trying to get my room mate situation resolved. My preferred room mate waited too long to cancel his housing and got his balls caught in a vice by UNCG. Why do I need a room mate? In case you haven’t heard Meg and I are no longer together (though we are still on friendly terms) and she’s moved back to the Charlotte area. While obviously I’m upset, I’m done lamenting over that, and now all I can see is my entertainment system is not longer entertaining. 37+ HDTV downgraded to 21 SDTV. Blech.

I’ve wooted lately, my prize? Why Unlimitted supply of air! For a guy who regualarly does tech support and is in possession of too many computers, that’s a good thing.

I got a full time job lined up, and I start on the first of June, but more on that later. These is enough words for now.

I should clean: there’s stuff over all my dust.

May 1st, 2009

I didn’t get into Summer of Code. I’m sad. I’m guessing it wasn’t even close, which is a shame because I thought I had a good (original) idea that could have improved Linux in the office as well as the home. Oh well. School is winding down, but really that means up because of all the exams, final projects, etc.

Meg and I are no longer together, so I’m hopefuly going to be rooming with Zach next year. For two months though, I’ll have the apartment to myself. I’m keeping our dog, Corabelle (my little minion), but Meg gets the fish. I need a new TV! Because I’ve now been spoiled by that HighDef thing, and I can’t go back to SDTV and its pitiful 480i resolution. Bah. And I almost had my media center set up just right, too.
