Compiling a sufficiently large piece of software might be thought analogous to growing a tree - slow, boring and not really your own work. Right now, I've got DRScheme compiling in the background, using 100% of one of my CPU cores while I type through the other. I do this because I am tired to to much of anything else, because I just need to get that last bit of highlighting to be white-on-black, and out of the geek joy that comes from imagining the complexity of the process occurring under the terminal.
I'm pretty sure I'll be taking acting I this semester. Physics 50 (mathematical methods, by John Boccio) will be enough hardcore computation. I actually sort of want to get more of that "right-brained" stuff in. I also sort of wonder if I'm setting up this semester to be easy at later expense.
It looks like I will soon be on the fencing team, and hopefully going to actual competitions and events.
Now for the real challenge. I can't let this semester slip by like the last one.
