Havent updated for a while as I hve been very busy. Had exams a couple of weeks ago and Ive been neck deep in revision and work last week – and will be until the end of term.
As a result of revision my guitar has been put to one side, but I still find the time (1am when I cant sleep usually :s) to get in a bit of practice or write a riff or two. Currently writing two instrumentals, one is a classical and the other is going to be shred. Going to try and record them over summer
Started learning Fortran as an extra cirricular activity, very simple language – finding it pretty easy after trying to learn C++ twice lol. We learn on a linux system (FC2). I took to it quite nicely having used linux before, found my limited knowledge of bash very useful to get around. We were recomended to use NEdit to code in, which imo looks nasty, so I used VIM instead : I can also ssh into it from home so I dont need to trek to the programming labs (an entire 2 minute walk from where I live).
Currently working on a report for the week – the point of the report is to measure the height of craters on the moon by measuring the length of their shadows. So Im trawling through 80+ pictures of the moon trying to find some suitable pictures! *YAWN*
Octopush later
