So, I was mucking about in CodeWarrior today (it's the platform real warriors use), and I came across my final project for 15-100: a version of the game Yahtzee. Ok, so maybe it's not a really hard game, but to make anything complicated and that still runs from your first programing class is pretty impressive. Especially given how awful my teacher was. I had to pull it out of the trash, but it still ran perfectly well. I thought it was neat. So I decided to show it to my mom. In about two seconds crashed it by typing in a number that was too high to be a die to re-roll (15 instead of 1 5). Then she went about the rest of her buisiness, thoroughly scornful of my cute little program. It was that look that was the worst - the "is this what we sent our daughter to college to do, write useless programs that crash?" look.

In other news, I start work tomorrow morning. Should be fun. Or at least, better than hanging around doing nothing.

Goodnight, or, as the say in Wales, Bore Da!
