(no subject)
It's early saturday, and I'm already on the computer instead of doing chores. >_<. Well, technically, I shouldn't even be here but comsci 110 LAB was canceled due to circumstances I don't know about. But I think the comsci 110 LEC exam isn't postponed (and I damn hope it doesn't. Even if I don't know how I'll manage to pass this time, considering the extreme complexity of LINKED LISTS FTW, I just want it to be over with).
Lately, I've been noticing something alarming:There are a lot of grumpy old men in the world. seriously. I know it's trivial, and obvious and i guess I should understand, but the reality is, I don't. Their grumpiness becomes hilarious and even pitiful at times. They just don't see misgivings of other people to be tolerable, in my opinion. I mean, it would do them better to just calmly go on without having to snap at the next person who doesn't behave ideally, intentionally or otherwise.
ilustrative example
I don't particularly understand why I am required to take up computer science subjects if I am a chemistry major. I mean, I know that it will help my thesis is I'm going to use computers to structurally model a certain compound and perform tests in silico, but to HAVE TO understand how to program (and using a language like C, at that, which basically was THE language since highschool), is mainly to be seen as a bit overboard. Really. And the second exam is later (I'm not having a lot of trouble with the subject though, since I already know how to code since highschool), and yet, I don't feel compelled to study, even if linked lists are freaking hard to understand.
Ah well.
