Now in 4D!
Life is great, but hard and confusing at the same time. I should be doing my assignment right now... but I feel like procrastinating. I've been so random lately that it's frustrating even me. I'm sure that if you left me alone for long enough (say 30 mins) with only a lamp stand, I'd form an emotional attachment to it. I'm just that kinda guy.
I spose I should explain a little about my assignment. I have to write a program that can run a poker hand in a functional language. For people who didn't get that the first time, I have to write it basically like f(x) = x + 1 ... etc and then chain a whole heap of them together to do something useful. In this case decide who wins in poker. It's an interesting break from normal programming, but very hard to debug (if there's a problem, it won't even tell me where it hit the problem). Fortunately, I've eben able to find my mistakes so far. I might not be so lucky when this gets more complex.
Also, I had uni today. It started raining heavily when I was halfway there, so by the time I got there I was thoroughly soaked (even wearing a raincoat). So I had to spend several hours in wet clothes before I could get home. I've felt fairly tired all day and I'm pretty sure that's why. Let me repeat again: prayer is too holy to work as an umbrella... except maybe if you're a mad prophet man who's angry at his people for turning away from God. Then it can do wonders.
My friend (Neil) grabbed my mobile during class and started looking at all my text messages. He saw that most of them were from tash... they were actually just letting me know when to be ready for things so she could pick me up and stuff but he only interpreted it as the obvious. When I explained, he still didn't get it and told me I should find out who she likes and pay him to reject her, then be there to pick up the pieces. The plan is so devilish that it's almost worth it... I am seriously tempted. Unfortunately I don't think I could be that cruel... maybe nice guys really do finish last ;-)
One last thing that happened today was that I had a deep thunk, and a brilliant invention emerged (I don't know why I'm putting it here, I haven't patented it yet). I call it: the COOKIEMUFFIN. The idea is to make normal chocolate muffins, and chuck chunks of cookie dough into it just before you put it in the oven. What comes out should be a mixture between muffin and cookie, with all the advantages of both. That's the theory anyway. I'm not sure I have the culinary skill to carry it out, but I'm determined to test it someday soon. Well, I've gotta program now so I guess I'll post this...
