And midterm season continues to bear down on me, with my CS370 midterm two days ago and CS246 today. PMath360 is two weeks from now, and my second midterms in Stat231 and Engl306A are the week after that.
I bought the new Kirby game yesterday, and it's quite good. The controls take a bit to get used to, but it's fun and has some replay value in the form of time and line trials (try to beat sections of levels either as quickly or drawing as little as possible). Unfortunately, it seems that it's going to be a rather short game. I'm in the 2nd last world and it says I've only been playing for a bit over 4 hours, which includes the time that Cale spent this afternoon. Of course I haven't gotten all the secrets, but if you're looking for a long game for a trip, this probably isn't it. That said, it is quite fun and enjoyable, and makes good use of the touch screen - the only button that you use is Start, and that's just to pause the game.
This weekend I'm heading down to London. My uncle from Australia is visiting, and this will be my only chance to see him before he leaves.
Yesterday the weather was coldish and damp. Compared to the recent trend of hot and humid, however, it was very pleasant.
Today was nicer still.
I had a meeting with the Associate Dean this morning about a mistake I made about not handing my work report in on time. However, he's said I can hand it in in January and not receive any penalty. Hurrah!
