When will I learn!
To not procrastinate?? I got the all the classes in my program to compile (woo-hoo!) Then I went to execute the thing, and I got an error. It has something to do with the way I'm storing things, and somehow, despite the fact I'm checking for it, it's trying to parse a null value into a float variable, which is, of course, not working.
So, I had a couple of hours before I had to turn it in. Figured I'd go ahead and FTP the thing to the UNIX box and see what happened.
HA! It blew up. Errors everywhere. Can't find the classes, so can't run anything, blah blah blah, so it won't even compile there. And this prof grades on that box, rather than a Windows PC, like the one I had last time. Hmmph.
Well, last lab, I managed to get enough points that I'll eke by. And I do think I got a fairly decent grade on the midterm, though I won't know until next week for sure. And I'm exhausted right now, which means that I'm likely to do more damage than not if I continue to try to fix this thing. So, I submitted it. And am now going to bed. I feel like I'm coming down with something anyway.
Hopefully I will become cheerier tomorrow, because I have a stats quiz to study for. Yuck!
I am also depressed that if I continue at the rate I expect to, I will be 31 or 32 by the time I finish this degree, no matter whether I continue with the BS, or just fulfill my "remedial" requirements and get into the MS program. Maybe I'll cut my losses and just take the professional certificate after next trimester. I think I'll talk to my boss and find out what that would get me jobwise. Possibly more than I think.
