I feel like dancing, or, you know, not.
Mar. 31st, 2004 06:03 pmMore like rambling I suppose. Although I don't really think I have terribly much to ramble about, and certainly not much I haven't already talked about several dozen times I'm sure. This and that and the fuzzy green otter hat. Rhyming's fun. :P
Anyway, twas a long day for me. My CS classes always seem to drag by. I wish it was more entertaining, but I've picked a damn boring career if I can't get into making video games like I've always planned to do. Now, all my other classes like sociology or even my stupid ass philosophy class are quite a bit more interesting. I rarely if ever yawn in those classes. Of course, both my CS teachers are older guys and rather tend to drone on, whereas my other classes have real characters as teachers, so it's possible it's partly that too. But it's still a very boring major. I'd probably become very depressed over the whole thing if the actual coding wasn't so much fun when you really get going at it. Of course, debugging can be a major bitch, but in that moment when you finally get a program finished and working, it's like winning a marathon, or a medal in the olympics or something. Sometimes it makes me wish that I had gone with my plan of like a few years here, then going over to Digipen. There classes actually have *computers* in them. You can actually work along when they teach you. Hell, the first semester you get to make a game. Every semester or year I think, a group made game is created. Although I'm not sure I could handle the 13 hour school day. They work your ass hard there. Ah well.
I'm rather blanking at the moment about what I wanted to write about, which is rather annoying, especially as I just know there's something that I've been wanting to talk about, but I can't for the life of me remember.
As long as I'm here, I wanted to say that C.S. Lewis was a freaking genius when it came to matters of religion and whatnot. He had such a grasp of what is really there, adn after having read the box set that I bought of his works, I must say that he has pushed his way up to one of my all-time faves in regards to authors. Brilliant, brilliant man.
