Busy

I had my first exam today. It was CS_125: Logic Programming and I didn't come out of that little exam room with a cheery smile on my face, i can tell you. I have to admit that I made that exam hard for myself by not doing much revision and, although I think I passed it quite comfortably I'm still disappointed that I didnt do better. Oh well, at least thats one down and I can start worrying about the other 6 (or so) that are flying towards me like concrete pigeons with halitosis.

On to interesting and geeky things. Yesterday I spent a couple of hours revising for my exam sat on the steps in front of Fulton House, watching the cheerleaders practice their routines.

...

Before you start thinking (as I'm sure several of the cheerleaders did) that I'm a pervy geek person, I was invited by Jo, who not only is a cheerleader but a Prolog-wielding postgrad SUCS geek too. I now have a new found respect for cheerleaders since some of the stuff they do is not only physically difficult but quite dangerous too. I was well impressed. And cold. It was freezing outside.

At the moment I'm working on a few php scripts which could allow sucs members to easily create their own blogs, just like this one. I've just about finished the parts which display the blog entries and allow people to post comments to the entries. Obviously I may have to take a break from doing this to do some revision and maybe get some fresh air now and then so be patient. As the druids doubtlessly said just before they set off from Wales to Salisbury Plain, dragging their monoliths: this could take some time.
