Sleighted

So I don't think I'll be able to sign up for my summer class. Not gonna have enough money for it. Damn. I was really hoping to take it, too. Now this scuffs up my schedule in an unknown way, which I am totally not cool with.

I went out this morning and bought the new Shinedown CD. I don't know how I feel about it. The songs are good, but I don't feel the creativity behind it. A lot of the songs are angrier and more spiteful than their older stuff. I'm not saying it's a bad album, maybe I just had really high expectations. I don't know. Maybe it'll catch on to me, I don't know.

Work is going alright. I wish I could do a little more programming, but I feel behind enough as it is that I'm fine working on the report for the time being. And besides I still know very little about C++. When I tried to work with Alex on a file, he had to baby step through it for me, and I still don't get it completely. But that's why I'm not a CS major. There's a lot of stuff we've already done. There's a lot we still want to do, which is good. I'll get you guys a copy of the report if you want, or at least what we have so far. I still don't like programming at all, even though it is becoming more of a necessity.

Brent's totally got me hooked back on to Super Metroid. The fastest I've done so far is 100% in 103 minutes. I think Brent's record is 90 minutes, so less than 15% off the master, I think that's pretty good. I can't do the fast roll thing, though I do know how to do it, I just can't get my grubby fingers to time it right. Plus since I'm using a GameCube controller (I'm playing it on Wii Virtual Console- I think it's an exact emulation of the original. It even lags when there are multiple enemies on the screen. I would sure hope that the Wii has a better processor than that.) it's a little awkward to run and shoot at the same time.

I'm tired and I haven't even done anything. I need to find a math GRE book ASAP.
