I have **never** been as busy as i was this past week. i had to write a chess program which i spent my entire weekend on finishing up. i worked on it all saturday till 3-4am, got up at 11 and worked on it till 45 minutes before it was due (5pm sunday). oh yeah, i have a 6-page paper due tomorrow, a couple long lab reports due this week, a major project/presentation this thursday, another paper (10-page) on friday, and physics homework which takes me too much time to do, all due this week, not to mention a couple small homeworks in history class. sing it clear, sing it loud, [size=7]college sucks!!![/size] [size=1]except for the girls and booze, of course…:)[/size] ---

i’m working on a chess program in Flash. So far I have the board (hey give me a break, I have been working on it for about 5 minutes!!) Thor: Did you have to use AI? or is it just like a multiplayer game? ---

well, they wanted a multiplayer game for extra credit but with the time pressure, i didn’t do it. as for AI, i asked them how much extra credit they would give me if i did make one since i’ve had some experience with AI, but then i realized how impossible it would be so i didn’t. and i would post the file but it actually reads from a pre-determined game which you can step through, which was the basic idea of the project. ---

…I feel you… two philosophy assignments due (logic structure stuff which is oh so phun), a political sociology portfolio (about 20 pages), a bunch of really easy but time consuming UNIX assignments, plus I had a nasty case of the flu last week so I need to catch up on my reading from that… oh and as I started writing this post I got the hic-ups… anyone know a cure that actually works?? I hate them more than anything… I am reminded of the simpson’s with the guy holding the world record for hic-ups: “Hic!.. kill me. Hic!.. kill me” 😛 Peace ---
