Ok... Enough with the tests...

Yup, yup, yup.
So I got a new job. I'm working with the Computer Science Department, under the director of communications. This means I'm an administrator... :-D
Oh yeah. Power... authority... I love it!

I have permissions to so much now! As a administrator, I can get into the super sweet labs (I'll be posting pictures of the differences soon). I also manage the Computer Science Departmental website and database.

:-D

KING OF THE NERDS!!
lol.

I'm studying for my database system exam and listening to The Oscar Peterson Trio - My Blue Heaven (Swiss Internet Radio - Radiocrazy - Big Band Jazz and Swing) - 128 kBit/s

:-)
I like it.

I'm really getting tired of profs letting us have "cheat sheets". This is the forth class in my college career where the prof tells us we can bring in a piece of handwritten paper. (I had one last semester, and three this semester). You'd think it'd been great, right?
nope.
My hands are getting micro-writer's cramp, all I learn is how to put down everything in my notes, and it takes more time than just studying.
Why do profs do this?
BECAUSE THEY'RE LAZY!!!
lol
If they tell you to make a cheat sheet, they can put a question like:

Problem 12(25pts):List the three reasons why we used Relationship models for database?

Now, a very smart student who knows everything about databases but has a bad cheat sheet won't be able to answer all three reasons (fyi, they are 1. they are simple, 2. they often match how we think about data, 3. It is an abstract model that underlies SQL)

Plus it's easy to grade, because there is a right and wrong answer, no extra credit.
lazy, lazy profs.
:-)

Now, in their defense... no, wait, nevermind. I don't wanna defend them. ;-)

Here's one of the little flyer's I made for work today. I had fun.
:-D

Now, it's not as cool as it could be, but I was constricted because the department's main printer is currently dead and I had to use an ink jet printer. I like it because it looks professional (boring, I know).

Still it's fun and it pays.. not well, but it pays.
As my mom says,

It pays for the starbucks, right?

Yup! Now if only I could get a car to drive me to starbucks... ;-)

I need to finish studying.

There is a reason I'm a member of the I Would Have Seen the Sun Set and then Rise In Bright, But the Labs are Soulless, Windowless Boxes on "the facebook" :-D
Later!

I'm listening to: Frank Sinatra - Super Hits # The Coffee Song
and my mom's favorite song (she used to sing it to my dad when he would go on business trips)
I'm listening to: Patti Page - You Belong To Me
