My last final is tomorrow. My god I want to be done. But I still have a long night/day of studying ahead of me.

[EDIT]

I've only gotten 3 out of 6 grades back, and they are As. The two hardest classes fall into this group, so I'm pleased about that. I'm almost positive that I have an A in another course, but I'm not entirely sure what the grading breakdown is.

Only two other classes. No clue about one of them. I got an A on the last paper, but I won't know this grade until he reports it. Pretty sure it will be my fifth A though.

But I'm not going to do well in this next class. Which is kinda absurd, since it's one of the easiest classes, technically. But it's low level, and I had major research projects this semester (so it was always on the back burner). Worse, the exam is all names/dates and fine details (without analysis). And I suck at remembering that stuff. When it's paired with analysis, I can usually remember the details. But just details for details sake? Yeah, no.

The stupid part is that this was supposed to be the easy class to round out a schedule that's otherwise all upper level. Smiley: glare

lol, well done.

I actually had 5 history classes, and an advanced metaphysics class on time. I'm cranking out a second major, instead of just minoring in history, and got the bulk of what I had left done this semester.

No school, but work feels like it sometimes (don't think that it's over when you graduate kids!). Just finally finished getting the kinks worked out for both online and offline systems of the "new" tester platform. After trying to trace down a dependency problem with the offline system, I decided to punt instead (hint: if you're tracing library dependencies and get to a glibc problem and the software is supposed to run on the OS/Kernel/etc that you're using, you're going in the wrong direction). Full rpm list of system that works and system that doesn't (both theoretically installed with the exact same media, but I only installed the one that didn't end out working, so I suspect foul play or something). Diff of lists. Find off remainder for rpms on source media. Pass that list to rpm to install missing stuff (which should have been freaking installed since it's *their* media. Grrrr...).

Anywho. System workie now. Of course, yesterday principal engineer says "hey. Can you write a completely new post process that'll automatically select calibration versions based on the currently selected software version? We need that right now". Sure, I says! Finished and tested that yesterday afternoon and will deploy today. Oh, and while writing said software, worked with guy in Japan for scheduled downtime in Singapore. Scheduled when you ask? Christmas day! Cause that's when no one will be around, right? So bringing windows admin up to speed on shutting down servers. Which apparently involved him actually creating his unix password for the very first time and then me giving him sudo on the systems involve (after working through 5 layers of stuff to get him to even be able to log onto the systems.

I have two things to do today, then I'm off through the end of the year though (aside from checking in just in case the whole downtime thing explodes or something). Pre-holiday rush doesn't go away.

Welp, 3 of my 5 grades are in.

ESE 330 (3): Integrated Electronics :: B
ESE 380 (4): Embedded Microprocessor Systems Design I :: B+
CSE 376 (3): Advanced Systems Programming in UNIX/C :: A
CLL 215 â€‹(3): Classical Mythology :: B-
JPN 111 (4): Elementary Japanese I :: B+

I would have done better in moon if I wasn't sick for over a month. Hoping I get at least a C in ese330 for it to not be meaningless/detrimental. Also I hate 'Diversified Education Curriculum" classes (ie CLL215). They always lower my gpa because I end up not caring enough about them because I view them as pointless. I also mainly hate how they won't let me replace one DEC with a second language. How can you claim to diversify students when you say that knowing far eastern European history is more important than knowing Japanese.

edit: **** yeah, got a B in the class I was hoping for a C in, and a B- in the class I was expecting a C+ in. And an A in the class I was expecting a B in. I love lowballing my grades.
