Exam week! Arrgh!

So, 1 exam down 3 more to go. Did my Object Programming today, glad
to have that behind me. Thursday I have 2 Tests worth 60% and 50%.
The 60% I'll pass without a problem, the other is statistics, yuk!

Work work work, study study study.
Going home to build my train in a week and a bit now. Can't wait.
I've spurred a bit of interest around the club, Steam Trams are
rarely modeled and the last known one ran at the club over 6 years ago.

Ok, I'm gona get a good night sleep and just chill and study for
Thursday.

4 more days of Uni! (I'm not counting or anything)

You can tell a lot about a person from their dorm door. Gender,
religion, race, preference in women etc. Just wandering around the
corridors you find everything from pr0n to comics to artworks. Beer-
bottles stuck to ceilings is not uncommon, well, at least on my floor...

Got more work to do, finish class this Friday so I have to wrap
everything up!

Winding down for the year.

Whoot! 9 more days of Uni this year! I finish everything for the year
on November 13, at which point I'll be heading home. I still have a
shit-load of assignments to finish and a bunch of College events so
I'm going to be quite busy. Next Saturday I'm going ona 100Km ride
from Sydney to Wollongong which should be lots of fun. This Thursday
we have a talent night, next Sunday a short film festival and the
formal and recovery sometime after that. A busy few weeks. Followed
by 2 weeks of exams and my cousin's wedding. Then three and a half
months off before I come back and do it again!

AL stands for Artificial Life. Some people were wondering if it was a
spelling mistake.

Anyhow, till next week,
Reece

More work!

Ok, busy this week. Still have a lot of work to process that I
couldn't do over teh session break. For some reason I just couldn't
concentrate. Either way today I can, so a lot of work is being done.

Busy as always,
Reece

Yay, an easy week!

This week I've gotten something I haven't had in a long time...sleep!
This thing called sleep is really good as I now have a lot of work
this week that needs attention and I'm ready for it. Anyway, the
comic is up. As with most of my comics, this one is based on
something that happened here at college. (Look no further than Dell
Dust!) Never ever EVER plug an iBook, camera, mobile charger and who
knows what else into a transformer designed to take about 20W. (The
iBook alone is 60W) It also had a nice large warning on it saying not
for constant use and with electronic devices...

Anyhow, 2 more weeks till the 'mid-session' break (week 11 of a 14
week session, work that one out) Anyhow I've spent enough time on
this comic and I need ot get my programming done.

Catch ya!

Ahh, the joys of Uni life!

Whoot! Halfway through session!

Hey, it's week 7 of a 13 week session. The time has just flown by.
Not only that, but TheLAD just turned one! To commemorate the
occasion, the-lad.com was dossed... Fiddlesticks. Anyhoo, it's back
online with comic no 47. Not too bad for a year's work. (I still have
time to make it to comic 52 before the-lad.com's birthday in December!)

My novel has stopped dead in it's tracks. Unfortunately I just don't
have the time to sit down and stare at a screen. I do that too much
already. I'm ahead in my work for a change and the bike is finally
repaired after a slight...mishap...last week.

This holidays I'm hoping to put 3 months of the year to good use to
build a 5" gauge steam engine. A big, expensive challenge, but
something that I have dreamed of doing for many years. I'm in a
position to build one and hopefully operate it at the local track, yay!

Anyhow, enough of a rant, it's late, I've drawn Shrike, done the
scripts for the next 4 comics and now have a basic plot going. (There
will be some random strips in there as well) It's a big day tomorrow,
so I need some sleep.

Night,
Reece
