Was just sent a very complementary email from Brad regarding my website; how much he enjoyed the quality computer-speak info, and how much more of it I ought to publish on the site.
\nTruthfully, unfortunately, he seems to reckon that telling people more about real life and less about “boring” subjects such as my course (those of you doing CS modules\/degrees will dispute this assessment of course).
\nIf you really want to learn about my “real” life, carry on reading. If not, skip about 2 paragraphs and carry on.<\/p>\n
OK, now for IRL stuff. Moved into the new house about 2 months ago, and after extensive work (mainly by one of my housemates – due to reasons I shall explain later), is beginning to look quite nice. I was walking around it yesterday after a particularly frenzied tidying up session in my bedroom, and thought “This is going to be OK”. This is all very well, although unfortunately the house is a minimum of 1hr from college (combined bus and tube journey), so this cuts into my waking hours significantly.
\nBroke up with the girlfriend (again) about a month ago, which is probably for the best.<\/p>\n
Anyway, back to stuff that may interest the majority of you. Phil (Chapman) is coming to London next weekend (that is the weekend beginning the 14th Oct), and so I think a gathering of all of us living in London is in order. Brad, Dave, Tim, Al, etc. pls e-mail me! I only know Brad & Dave’s e-mails at college (having lost Tim’s), and Al’s only just moved down to London, so we all need to get in touch pretty sharpish.
\nRichard Fee is now at Warwick, although I’ve heard nothing from him in the way of e-mails so far. Cutting him a little slack though, he’s been on Fresher’s Week all last week, so I suppose I ought to give him a few more days to recover :))
\nSeems that Kate Bergel has arrived at looniversity in York, although I can’t remember the exact details of the blanket e-mail she sent out. I seem to remember that she was doing Maths & Computing, so all luck to her for that.
\nAl Boag has also arrived in London, but I haven’t had a chance to get in touch yet….<\/p>\n
Um…. run out of things to say. Worked for the Dept. of Computing here at Imperial over the summer, which is why I wasn’t around in Harrogate. Rest assured that I shall be very much present for all subsequent holidays throughout our degrees…<\/p>\n
My GFX & Topics (HTML) projects went very well… we got an A+ for our Topics project, and about 39\/40(!) for our GFX project, so that’s cool…
\nUnfortunately, due to a chronic lack of work, I barely managed to pass the year with a “B” grade, a severely downmarket performance during my Discrete, Logic and OS exams pulling down otherwise respectable grades overall. Never mind eh?.<\/p>\n
That’s all for now, g’day folks… <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
