The Planets Align…
Today, Pluto’s favorable position relative to Saturn caused me to have a good day. Or not. Though the fact that I am homework-less is such a rare occurrence that it seems that the planets must align for it to be possible. And what did I devote my extra time to? Breaking my code. In programming, code is “broken” when you do something to make it not work anymore. Most of the time, some intense debugging can stablize the code again, but I’m too frustrated to do that just yet. I tried to object-orient my card collection system with classes and functions, rewriting my earlier linear design to be more flexible and stable. All this while integrating a new database abstraction layer for data storage and a few name changes caused massive problems. I don’t have huge knowledge of OOP (object-oriented programming) yet, so I really have no idea how to fix things. I have a feeling this will mean another five hours of pain.
School was great today because it was generally easy and no teacher assigned much work. In health we watched a corny video on fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. No homework there. In English we went over our homework from Thursday night and talked amongst ourselves. No homework there but to study for tomorrow’s vocabulary test. In math we did our homework in class after some incredibly boring notes. No homework, obviously. In social studies I did my homework in class, in biology there was none, and in Spanish we had an easy test.
I had planned on writing a longer entry, but various interruptions prevented this from happening. I’ll end this one for now.
