Home stretch

Looks like my ordeal is almost over. Two more exams to go, and the first of those is only about14 hours away. Then it's one last day of studying, followed by the last exam, and then - freedom!

To my complete lack of surprise, I find my mind brimming over with ideas on stuff to do in the vacations - and for once, they're all unbelievably geeky, involving lots of coding, mathematics and puzzle solving...Looks like my True Self(see Heretics of Dune - Miles Teg's training on Chapterhouse) is awakening. Long overdue, but since most major evolutionary jumps in my life seem to come a year or two after those of my contemporaries, that's about par...

Naturally I have to try and control myself - don't want to mess up these last exams just because they're so close to the end. I already have a feeling that I haven't really done enough for OOAD, but thankfully our teacher grilled us on that quite well. At least some of our teachers are really competent...

Better buzz off to bed now - plan to get up early and do some studying. The weirdest part is that you can actually bone up on the entire theory section pretty fast. All you have to do is learn to see past the repetitions. So if I wake up at around 8, I should be able to bone up on the remaining fancy theory, cast a practiced eye over the diagrams, turn on my MeaninglessParagraphGeneratorTM, activate the NearlyEndlessRepetitionTM module, and we should be all set.

Off to rest the mental circuitry - next post probably due tomorrow night...Stay tuned.
