Long, loooong weekend..

My residential college in NZ, had its "Fall Ball" on saturday night, and as tradition dictates, everyone gets totally inebriated. Luckily I managed to stop short of the vomitting stage. Although, I still woke up drunk on Sunday at 11am. Some others were not so lucky...

Good old Jack D, he's good at knocking you flat... But Tullamore Dew? thats another story.

Now, lets hope I find a little spare time this week to do something worthwhile...

Ugg... Spending 3 hours in a University Computer Lab, debugging a really annoying problem, sucks.

Turns out it was a dfference in the way Pascal and C evaluate conditionals for loops. (Spare time exercise, convert the Lab exercise from Pascal (DEC Pascal - even more Ugg.) to C).

I've decided to try and save some pennies to get a copy of K&R.

Anyway, learning lots about microprogramming, and instruction sets. hopefully I'll be able to grok assembly language at the end of it.

Back to the grind. finish that Delphi assignment. Ick.
