So it's Thursday of Finals Week, I haven't stayed up all night studying even once. I have one last final tomorrow and I just don't care anymore. I don't even remember what the class was about. Linux stuff. Bash and Perl and socket programming. Maybe I should go over my notes.

I am getting better at this programming stuff, I think, at least I think I'm better. I have a better idea about how to put together my poetry program. And I have a new assignment from Clint: implement 'Asteroids' for a couple of different platforms. I dunno, I may have crossed a line somewhere this semester. I've spent all semester writing programs in languages I don't know, and that was tiresome and unnerving, but now I'm a little bit inured to the feeling. So all the dorky little projects I have in mind aren't really intimidating me so much anymore; sure I don't know how to to write them, or even what language to use, but so what, that just makes them like every other project I've done this year. I need a program to convert text into image files for the fridge magnets poetry project. Oh I know, I'll write one. Hey, I haven't written anything in Unicon yet, I'll just write it in that.
Right after finals we're driving back to our hometown in Oregon. We'll stay with Colleen's folks and then my mom, and probably want to sleep a lot. But we'll also get to see our friends.
