I'm going to try to update at least once a week, so I can get stronger in my content-fu. I'll try to practice my writing here, and see how long I can make posts without filling them with BS content.
So I've started working on Project Euler. So far, I've solved problems 1 through 4. I think I've got the fifth one solved, but my loops seem to be infinite and the program hangs forever. Annoying. I'm taking a break from the whole furiously-coding thing. Math and programming is fun, but when I hit a wall like this, it takes me a bit of time to untangle it all in my mind. I'll come back to it in a day or two and I'll see right through it all.
As promised, I'm going to fill in a small chapter of my life story between now and two years ago, when I abandoned ship out of boredom. So, the story begins.
It was my second year (or my first? christ, I can't remember anymore) at Colonial. I think it was my second. I was riding the bus home, and this cute chick with pink-and-black hair (I'm a sucker for crazy hair colors) asks me for the time. We start talking, and we end up friends. Well, she, who goes by the name Mercedes, talks almost incessantly about this game called Unwritten Legends. Eventually, she helps me and a friend sign up for the game, and we begin playing. It was my first real MUD, so it was awkward at first, but I soon found myself comfortable with text-only interfaces. Then, I learned that UL was very roleplay-oriented. It was here that I met Kaylie. Our characters hit it off. It wasn't too long before we started getting closer to each other for real.
December 2, I skipped school, and sat around at home all day long. She came home from school herself, and I saw her get online. The original log is lost to a Windows reinstall, but the conversation went something like this:
Kaylie: I like you.
Me: Me too.
Kaylie: You wanna go out with me?
Me: Yeah, definitely.
And so began a new chapter in my life. Part 2 of however many I want to make is coming soon.
