EDIT: Holy shit. Art pimp time. [link] <---- YOU WISH YOU WERE THIS AWESOME.

Hi guys. Everyone enjoying themselves? Good. I really don't care, but it pays to be somewhat polite, right? That's what the Uni keeps telling me. Yay Uni. Yay getting up at 7am to get to class. <.<

I adore my lectures. I adore what we're going to learn. I fucking loathe the timetable screwups I'm having to deal with - it's week two and I still don't have a reliable class list. Gah.

Discrete Maths looks like it's going to be my favourite subject, which is extremely strange. I love the fact that it's a class where you get given a list of questions, complete them, and get a mark - every other class has far more complicated criteria for marking, and you're expected to work out the topic and structure yourself. Besides, I get to do a unit on Boolean algebra, which I consider the most awesome name for a unit ever, with the possible exception of Contempary Piano Warfare.

Fundamentals is far far more interesting than I expected. At first it looked like it was going to be "this is how you turn on your computer! ^_^", but it turns out it's the -fundamentals-; the first practical we're required to do is to fully assemble a PC, right down to attatching the heat sink and processor to the motherboard. We're doing an overview of the history of computers and then analysing the pro's and con's behind programming languages - I think we're going to build our very own programming language later in the semester. If so, I'll be very pleased indeed.

Hrmph. Despite my workload, I've not forgotten about DA and my art - I'm making an effort do up a portfolio at the minute, with varying levels of success. I'm also getting into Second Life, due to the fact that it's a vehicle for several of our lectures in Digital Media Techniques. I think I'm going to make a Pianoman avatar - see this picture [ [link] ] for reference.

Anyway. Gotta make a move now, I have my Communications for Information Technology seminar. Considering I missed the entirety of my classes in that unit last week, I've got a substantial amount of catching up to do.

Incidentally. I've got an IRC channel registered for no real reason - I intend to play a few games of D&D over there when I get the time, but until then it's just a chat channel. #clocktower on irc.sorcery.net - my tag is Nailrabbit or Proxy. If you feel like chatting, I should be around for a very brief while in the mornings and for a very long while in the evenings, which is like... uh. Oh God, </3 timzones. 5PM onwards. Since we're GMT+9.30 here that would make it... 7:30AM GMT? I'unno. If you're desperate you'll work it out.

Also, play Aetolia. [link]
