Urgh...posted another craigslist listing for the apartment

Time to mentally prepare myself for another slew of horribly written spam/scam fake responses. I should also get around to posting in a few other places.

In good news, I finally found the last two bugs in my OS project (a virtual memory manager) and resubmitted it to the autograder, receiving a perfect score.

I am also mostly registered for my courses for next semester. I met with a couple of advisors today to confirm that my plan would a) allow me fulfill the requirements for my Japanese degree, b) fulfill the requirements for my CS degree, and c) fulfill the requirements for the math minor.

That all worked out; however, I still need to check as to whether or not I'll be able to get the double degree. I think I'm currently just signed up as a double major, but I might be able to fulfill the requirements for a double degree. I certainly have the credits. I think the one problem is that I have to have taken the &$^)%$#&@ junior year writing course for *both* of my majors (instead of just Japanese as is the case currently). That would be sort of a bummer. I mean, it's not like it would be hard or expend much of my mental energy. It's just that the CS department's writing course, "Social Issues in Computing," is at 9:05 on MWF this semester. By my current schedule I won't have class until mid-afternoon on Monday, and won't have class at all on Wednesday or Friday. Hence the suckiness of this. But again, I have to check on it.

As it stands, I'm signed up for Artificial Intelligence, Combinatorics and Graph Theory, and Modern Algebra. I don't know exactly what I'll be taking for Japanese yet--I wanted to be a TA for credit, but Prof. Forrest seems to think that none of the Japanese teachers actually want a TA for next semester. So if I can't do that, he suggested that I look into this translation course which he says would be good for me. It does, in fact, sound pretty good to me--it'd just require more energy, I think, than a TA-ship would have.
