Pearls of Wisdom

As promised to Jackie, here is my blog for the day...
Not much to report except that I once again failed my Java quizzes...damn java...death by java really wasn't an overstatement. If this keeps up, I probably will fail java and have to be forced to take CISC 101 in the fall. NOOOOOOOO!!!!! Please!!! 50% is all I ask...I won't even be greedy for 51! hahaha memories of 190 =P

...which brings me to the 190 group meeting we had today! *sigh* that totally useless class is becoming a huge pain in my ass. After today, I'm not so sure I'm going to pass that course either. Our group report came back today and we got a 53% which was about average among all the other groups but only because those people wrote dumb things. For example, one group wrote that an existing community should relocate all their buildings to the south end of the city because then it will be warmer. O....K.... or yet in another instance, one group wrote that they should flatten out the land because it is bumpy. Ok seriously it's THOSE type of people that deserve the fifties because compared to their stuff, our report is sheer genius! Our ideas were actually very practical such as harnessing methane gas releases at landfill sites to burn and produce energy, promoting composting, improving bus routes to minimize air pollution, increasing tourism to improve economy and attracting large companies to provide more jobs to the people were just a few examples of the things that were written in our report. But no...the markers had to be mean. It was like "OH...they didn't mention where the landfill is going to be, minus 20%!" Honestly, I think they're really out there to get us.
