I return

Hello there fellow LaGers. I apologize for not posting anything over the past few days. I was preparing for the NBT's I posted about earlier and I was busy with getting ready for school again. But I'm back for now and I must say, the NBT's were really difficult. That's all I'm going to say about that.

I'm not going to do a fullish post again because I feel a bit down. I got some of my school marks back and I'm really disappointed with myself. I thought I would do better, but oh well, I gotta work harder I guess. but I won't bother you guys with that too much.

I hope that you guys stayed safe the while I was gone and hope you have fun with the rest of your summer holidays.

Study study

I apologize for the late post today. I've been busy studying for the NBT's(my country's equivalent of the SAT's for university). I'm writing these tests on the coming Saturday and I've been busy as hell. I still need to learn differential calculus, which sounds really really intimidating.

I haven't been playing a lot of FF4, but I have been messing around in FFXIII, and I just remembered how much I enjoyed it, so I might do a review about that in the next few days and do a few posts about the upcoming FFXIII-2.

Anyways, LaG on brothers and sisters!

Report about yesterday

I apologize for not making that post yesterday, but I was REALLY lazy. My girlfriend came back from Europe yesterday, so I was talking to her for most of the day.

ANYWAYS, yesterday's power-outage was big. It was the whole northern side of my town that was experiencing it and it was really long. It lasted from 08:00 till 17:35. I'm not even kidding, it lasted NINE HOURS! The amount of boredom I experienced was immense. I played a game of solitare and then attempted to nap, but to no avail. I played Final Fantasy IV (great game btw) on my DS until my battery died. Then I just laid in bed and spoke to my woman on my phone until the power came back on.

I really don't know why it was off, or why it was for so long. All I can say is: "Thank the f***ing Lord"

Baka

I must apologize

My brother is coming to visit from out of town and I don't think I can make a full on post today. I'll make a full post again tomorrow.

Just wanted to let you guys know in case you got worried :P

FINALLY!!

OH YES! I'm finally done with school for the term!(until the 18th of July ofc) I'm so happy that it's done. All i wanted to do for the last few days was just to sleep without any interruptions, and now I can :P

I do, of course, have things planned for said holiday. Firstly: sleep as much as I want. Other than that, I want to start with the programming, finish both American McGee's Alice and the sequel: Alice Madness Returns, and just hang out with my friends and what not. I was doing some of that today though (which would account for my late post and moderation), but I had a lot of fun and I finally feel that I can relax.

Expect a post about Alice: Madness Returns TOMORROW! :D

1 Day Left

Man, I CANNOT WAIT for tomorrow to be finished. Tomorrow is my last 2 exams (maths: third paper and a language paper). It's going to be SO awesome to finally be done with school and all that. I can't wait to sleep late and not worry about writing any useless exams for a few weeks. Man, it's going to be sweet indeed.

As for my maths exam, it was alright. There were some really RETARDED mistakes I made, but I put it out of my mind right now. I don't see the point in worrying about an exam after i wrote it, so yeah. I think my lack of proper sleep kinda effected my problem-solving abilities, so I'm going to sleep early tonight.

LaG on people! I'll make a proper post tomorrow.

Back from Accounting

And it was alright. It wasn't the best exam in the world, but it wasn't the worst either. But the thing i hate about accounting is: if you get an amount wrong, your whole damn statement or sheet or whatever is wrong. So yeah, i don't know how I did, but I hope it was ok.

I also got my science marks back for the term. It's not BAD per say, but I'm disappointed in myself. I was aiming for an 80%, but I got 76%. It's still good, and they were difficult exams, but I gotta push myself from now.

Oh yeah, and I'm missing someone a lot. My girlfriend went to Italy and I'm missing her extremely. At least she'll be back the week after next, so I'm looking forward to that.

Today isn't exactly roses and sunshine, but I just gotta push on through.

I'm off to study for the second maths paper. >.< LaG on!

Baka

Exams

As you guys know, I'm in the middle of writing exams and whatnot. I wrote the first maths paper today and it wasn't that nice in my opinion. I mean, it was ok, but the third main question threw me off COMPLETELY for the rest of the paper. But I pulled it back, though I left that question out.

But oh well. I gotta go study for accounting tomorrow. I apologize for not making a post yesterday :( But I shall try to keep you posted everyday until my exams are over.

Wish me luck!

Gaming posts will resume starting Friday(gotta get down)

Baka

Back from bio!

This exam i wrote wasn't the easiest exam in the world, but it was alright. I don't think I did badly in it, but I don't think I did amazingly either. Either way: at least it's over now, and now i got 5 days off to game and study for accounting!(oh joy)

On another note, over the past few days I got several letters from different universities that I have applied to. The most important of the letters (the ones that weren't snail-mail spam) said that I got provisional acceptance into 3 of the universities that I applied to so far! This is beyond awesome indeed! So basically I got accepted into university, I just need to pass well now >.<

I just wanted to let my fellow LaGers know about that and give an update! More gaming news to come tomorrow.

Baka

Back from the chemistry exam

So as you guys know, I wrote chemistry today. All those hard hours I put into studying that work seemed pointless. That's how EASY the exam was today. I swear, if i never studied I still would've aced that exam. But hey, studying is still good for you. Stimulates the mind :P
(Reply to kxxthanxx: I did actually study yesterday >.<)

I just wanted to update you guys on how my exam went. Now i just need to study for the second biology paper for tomorrow >.<

Baka

Side-note: I'll start posting about gaming again when I finish tomorrow's exam. The reason for this being: I haven't touched my PS3 in 2 days and will be able to only tomorrow again. So stay strong LaGers! Baka shall be back soon.

No Full Post Today

Sorry guys, I can't do a full post today. I'm writing a chemistry exam tomorrow and I got a few things on my mind (That and I can't think of anything to write about today). I'll make a full post tomorrow.

Sorry again guys, I just wanted to let you know and update.

Terrible Terrible

Yesterday I was so busy looking for a C and C++ compiler for my mac. It's a freaking nightmare. I spent ages trying to get one, but it all lead to the same thing: Xcode. Now: I would've used Xcode, but the process of getting it is horrible. I need to get an apple dev account to get it, which I did, but I need to download it. So now you're thinking "Well, download it then. It can't be that bad, right?"

Wrong. I would've downloaded it, but the download is 4gig big, and I have REALLY slow internet. So basically downloading it will take a few days. My mac installation disks also came with Xcode on it, but I can't find it anywhere. SO now here I sit, compiler-less. Sad panda indeed.

If any of you guys know of any C and C++ compilers that I can download for mac, please let me know in the comments. It'll be greatly appreciated.

I'll continue to post about gaming tomorrow.

Program Language: Selected

Thanks a ton for suggesting programming languages guys. I've read all your comments and appreciate it greatly that you guys support and have suggestions for me. I'll get to learning all those languages soon, but I think I'll start out with C. The reason for that is: I downloaded a file yesterday with 8 different guides to learning C, and I think I'll just start out with what I have for the moment, but I'll get guides and books for the other languages too.

I definitely will get to the other languages, such as java, but I think I'll do C first. I'll do java after C, then C++ after that.

Thanks for the support guys! but right now I'm busy downloading compilers>.< LaG on!

Busy Busy - Part 2

OK, so I'm back again. I apologize for yesterday's short post and whatnot, I was really busy, as I had to study for a test and only getting home from school at 21:00 last night. But I'm back now and all is right with the LaG-realm. I'm still pretty busy now, but i have time to do some admin on my blog now and post.

ANYWAYS: I have a request to ask of my fellow LaGers. For the upcoming holidays (in about a months time, lasting for 3 weeks), I have set a goal for myself: to learn a programming language. Now, the request I have for you guys is to suggest a programming language for me to learn in the upcoming holiday. I don't know any languages at the moment, but I want to start learning so I can have a knowledge for my university course next year. So does anyone have any suggestions?

Keep on LaGing peeps.

Baka

Busy Busy

Hey guys. Sorry for not doing a proper post today. I'm really busy and still have lots to do.

I'll moderate the comment and do a proper post tomorrow. Please forgive me :(

Baka

Fixed

I'm glad to announce that my PS3 and HDTV are ok now. I just needed to do some minor power-cycling to get it going properly >.<

Thanks for the suggestions guys! It's nice to know my LaGers are worried about my gaming too. :P

Well, I'm off to study for biology>.<(kinda defeats the purpose of getting my PS3 working, but I'd prefer being certain my console is working).

Keep LaGing

Roar

NOOOOOOO! It's happening to me again :'( Wait, let me explain first.

Do you guys remember a few months back my PS3 decided "Screw you bro, my HDMI is too cool for your TV". Well, it's happening to me again :( Now I have to play it on the really bad AV channels. Meh...

Last time the problem just fixed itself, but now I'm not too sure if I'll be so lucky this time. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?

I'll let you guys know if anything happens.

Baka

Well Well

So today was the supposed rapture. You know, the advent of Jesus to take the Christians of this planet and into heaven. Well, that and some people speculating the zombie apocalypse. either way, the end of the earth. Sad to say, I didn't get raptured and I don't see the living dead anywhere. It's already 09:38 and not a hint of flesh-hungry ghouls. Pity, i was so looking forward to it. Anyway, that guy who said the world was going to end today was sadly mistaken, and he's going to hear a LOT of complaints.

Well, more on the gaming side: Still enjoying Duke 3D. Its really a blast to play, though the controls need to be changed. It's taken up a ton of my time yesterday, so i gotta catch up on lost work that needs to be done. Pity, actually. I was looking forward to pwning some more pig-cops today. Oh well, I guess my accounting project IS kinda important and needs to be completed. That and I'm writing a biology test on Monday. Meh, so much work, so much Duke that needs to be played. I'll find the time soon. Hopefully.

LaG on! And please get your guns ready incase the zombies start attacking.

No Full Post Today

Sorry guys, I won't be doing a full post today. I'm feeling a little sick and I want to get some rest. I'll post again tomorrow and moderate the comments in the morning.

Update on the accounting

As I told you guys before, my peers and I wrote a nightmarish accounting test on Monday. Well... we finally got our test results, and they're amusing to say the least. When i saw my result i was actually surprised it was that high. Here's the thing, i got 37,5% where i normally get a solid 80%

I say it's amusing because when I heard what the class average for the test was, I broke out laughing for a good 5 minutes. Do prepare for laughter now: the class average was 26%. our class normally makes the low 70's for the class average, so this is just crazy.

Our teacher said that we wouldn't give us a new test, but he would make our assignment count for a lot more than it should to make up for the test. Now: i find this to be a little unfair, but fair at the same time.

What do you guys think? Do you think my teacher is justified or that he's just a tad lazy?

LaG on brothers.
