on holiday!!

w0000000000t!

so i'm pretty damn excited. i've *just* finished packing, i'm praying that nothing's amiss because until february i'm outta here...

my excitement this evening was almost dampened, the guy from my unit that i was chatting to on the bus is a creationist. so i have one of those, a nihilist, and a homeopathy patient all under one roof.

speaking of the nihilist, today was a breakthrough day - i argued him into a state of agreeableness, and he's actually beginning to develop a certain amount of optimism ^_^

the day:

flight of the concords: i was completely taken by surprise when my ride, much to the chagrin of our fellow passengers, put their disc in. sweet!

funny mail -> unfunny slur talk: the indian guy and i had a *chat*, he didn't realize how serious i was about the whole thing. the chat led to about half an hour of discomfort, but we seem to have gotten over it. i really hope we have - i really don't want hard feelings about this.

coding / documenting all day: awesome ^_^
i've had so much fun with this the last week it's ridiculous!

*secret code cabal*: i've been included in a Big Secret, and it looks like we're finally going to do something fun that's been joked about for ages :)

quickest unit meeting: it lasted all of one breath, "does anyone have anything important to say? no? great! let's eat!". the way it should be :P

extern destruction: the learning part of the day. someone discovered that an extern call to a non-existent variable can be compiled without warnings... that's both interesting and horrible.

packing has been an experience this evening, with santana blasting full volume and the beer going straight to my head :)

i have filled my ipod with incredible psychedelic rock, and i'm ready to go... GONE!
