Bah

Tonight I'm having another one of those pensive evenings I tend to get every so often, usually when things are looming...
Was quite productive earlier, producing a few new classes for the major project, and solving a few issues, but it occured to me that I've only just really got to the end of the base proxy implementation (which I've since realised I could have used another product and modified it to my needs much more quickly) so i've got a long way to go, aswell as the mountains of documentation, which I shall start in ernest next week regardless of progress with the coding, as that's where all the marks are.

Another thing that's annoying is I have 14 taught hours a week (lectures and practicals), all spread out into one hour sessions, which really affects my productivity as it takes me an hour of coding to really get into it, ok it's nothing compared to a full time job, but having to "context switch" that often just doesn't fit in with the way I work most effectively.

Things seem a bit strange this year, again, people have changed, location has changed (now back in halls) and it's all a bit odd, just talked to the parents, and they've had the house valued and are looking for other houses, luckily not far away from where they are at the moment, but going back home to a different house this summer would probably fuck with my head.

Anwyay, back to the grindstone, got a 9am practical, based mainly on how $lecturer invented $antique_wan_technology. Urrgh.
