well, it’s all official. starting in the fall i will finally be a student again. yay! i’m all registered for Introduction to Web Programming/Scripting at bcit. the only thing i’m not excited about it the fact it’s a saturday class. at nine a.m. even with the crappy timetable, it’s going to be nice to stretch my brain again.
i was going to be such a good girl last night and go to bed early to catch up on some sleep. i was in bed by eight-twenty and lulled asleep by the timo maas essential mix by eight-thirty. then the unthinkable happened. the phone rang. i thought i could leave it alone, not get up and check to see if someone left a message. then i realized it was still early and it could have been karen calling about the movie tomorrow or mom with another fire story to tell. so i got up. it was meghan. “call me.” i called her. after a twenty minute conversation about poutine, klonoa 2 and sonar, i hung up. i got back under the über-blankie, stretched out and tried to relax. it wasn’t going to happen. i don’t know what i did for two hours, but i finally got back into bed sometime after eleven. ugh.
needless to say, i’m still sleepy. but, i have watermelon for breakfast.
i still want to write about my reactions to the hamptons “real-life mini-series” which was on the last two nights, but i shall wait until i’ve seen the second part. to tide you over, let it be said that there are some people who should not whiten their teeth. *shudder*
I once ate half a watermelon myself. I don’t recommend it.
i like the word “thirty”.
aw, i wanted to watch that hamptons show…damn. was it good (in a trashy way)?
Why are you doing that course? Sitting down and writing your own bloggersoft in PHP using solely the manual (http://php.net/manual/en) will teach you more in 5 days than that course will. AND you may be able to actually score work (if that’s what your aim is) afterwards. Everything I need to know about web dev (my career, as it happens) I learned on my own. Also, CGI and Perl are fairly outdated means of programming for web. ASP.Net, PHP, and even ASP are generally far better. Perl is a network admin language. Good luck, tho.
