I have come to the conclusion that high-school needs to be harder. Why? Because as much as they warn us that post-secondary is difficult, I don't feel they prepare us enough. In high-school, I was an A student for the most part. I put the effort in and ended up with high grades. You would think a straight-A student transitioning from high-school to college would at the very minimum be able to pass, wouldn't you? Well, in my case, no. While the issue isn't entirely academic (I have been struggling with awful sleeping patterns), I can say, at least in my case, that the step from high-school was MASSIVE in terms of workload, although perhaps that is the fault of my particular program. Meh, moving on.
Working away at SQLcraft when I can, not making much progress feature wise since I want to make a secure login system for it. Said login system is bending me over it's knee and beating my ass with the vengeance of a thousand screaming monkeys. Fun times!
I finally watched a few episodes of Dollhouse, and I can best describe it this way: Firefly made me question my sexuality towards Joss Whedon. Dollhouse made me gay for him. The man is brilliant, it's a shame that he typically doesn't appeal to the majority viewership (or gets fucked over by a network in the case of Firefly (the decision makers on that one at FOX have a special place in hell reserved just for them)). Yes, his series' can be confusing, but that's because it isn't dumbed down for the general viewership (or said decision makers at FOX decided to be dickheads and ignore episode numbers and air Firefly in a seemingly random order, losing everyone as characters seemingly come back from the dead, or meet someone for the first time when they have already met in a previous episode) like a lot of modern TV shows. It's a higher level than the typical crap that's fed to the masses.
