I go back Tuesday I think... I was hoping for Wednesday (got AS-level ICT coursework to do that I've done practically none of so far) but alas, it looks like Tuesday.

I'm glad I don't have any exams! Just 5 ICAs to do. And the only thing I have to do now is a 2000 word report on the design and analysis of this physics in Cricket thing, by this wednesday. Shouldn't be too hard to get done!

I know the feeling. I've never taken any time out and feel like I could really do with a break. Specially now, when people keep asking if your looking into jobs n stuff now. I mean ARRRRR! I've just sat through 18 odd years of education without taking my five minutes peace, I'd like to consider doing something less taxing and fun for a change, before settling down to my 9 to 5! Or 9 to unworldly time of night, as most game programmers have to face! Dunno what I want to do with myself at the moment. Just try n finish this last-final-woo-year of education; get my degree; then think about what to do with myself!

heh, not a bad price, but yer, who really wants that game!?!

Heh, I did the boring home thing for christmas. New year was better though, in a Buddhist monastry in Scotland :^) Wrote a bit about it in life forum.
This uni thing isn't fun anymore. Exams to revise for. I guess i should be used to it by now, but it still feels like banging my head against a wall of stuff i'll never really know...
Actually if i can just hold my concentration for a few more weeks i think i can do pretty well this time round.
Ah well, i've decided next year i'm going to work for a bit then take myself to newzealand, try to get a job there...
call it a quater-life crisis, but i want a late gap-year :^D
On another note, amazon have cel damage for £9. If i was even remotely interested in owning it i'd be impressed

Kind of. It's for my Games Physics module.
Here's our brief;
Computer games are increasingly using physics based simulations to add realism to a game. The assignment is therefore to write a small physics engine in C or C++ using OpenGL or DirectX API.
It should simulate some physical aspect of a computer game. You are not expected to write a complete game!
The choice of simulation is up to you.
So I'm doing Cricket. Think I'm gonna turn it into a full game after I finished the module. Cos all I'm really concentrating on for the ICA is the bowling aspect. Ball reacting to different levels of speed n spin, and bouncing off the ground n bat. Should be quite fun this module.
How was your xmas and new years mate? I went boarding again just before xmas which was wicked. Then went down to Cardiff to spend xmas at my brothers. Now back up north again, cos being here with me lass is far more interesting than staying back home alone.

I hall. I can't wait for animal crossing! It goes on my long list of games to buy! :D
