You came on your own, that's how you leave

Murphy's Law for the CS student, corolary #36436
No matter how well and decent your program looks like to you, nor how much you tested it, it's flaky. At the day to hand it out, the teacher will find it crashes in a way you never even thought possible, for a reason you didn't even know you had to consider in the code. So you're left for two hours, racking your brains and not really understanding what you had to change, when it's all about putting/adding an extra if-else condition or just using a different library function. So you get evaluated at the END of the class like some speshul kid even though you had it "done" for days.

It's happened TWICE this semester-- no, this month.

But at least I'm free from deadlines! :D Well, almost...

And I bought Aqua + the first two Aria volumes ♥ I was only going to buy Aria #1, but #2 has Akatsuki and Al so... *hangs head*

Now just waiting for my packet to arrive, and all my Christmas self-presents will be mine >)

Por cierto, la tarjeta de mi tío rebotó mientras pagaba mi hosting ;_; Lo curioso es que el hosting como tal sí pasó, pero el pago de la base de datos no. Algún español me podría hacer el pago del MySQL de Aruba.it entre esta noche y mañana? ;_; Son sólo 8 eurines y pico. Prometo depositarlo en el banco apenas pueda.

ETA: IOU 8.40€ to Estefanía.

I think you just described the very reason I never went into programming. :')

No kidding, programming is tricky shit and even professionals can be fail ('sup Microsoft?). It rarely happens to me, crashing when they're evaluating me, so it's almost funny... almost ô_o

Hey, yo misma :)

Me tengo que duchar ahora mismo, pero o me mandas un mail (con el link or something) o cuando termine me conecto un momento~

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

Yey, te hago forward del mail de Aruba entonces :3*

No sé si pueda ir esta semana al banco, pero antes de Enero te pago sin falta!

ETA: putos acentos y Gmail... ¬¬

Off topic: te llegó el beta de tu fic?

[rainmage.livejournal.com]

Yup, sorry I didn't reply. I got yours and Alanna's nitpicks! ♥ I've already uploaded the corrected thing, and I really appreciate it X3 I'll try to write something for the both of you or translate something I've already done in Spanish because I'm a lazy ass. I'm glad you liked the fic itself :D

I think mistakes happen to everyone. No matter how many times you look over something. It doesn't mean you don't know what you are doing. You still eventually worked it out.

Yeah, but I looked sort of dumb in front of teachers, when people who probably finished the practice the day before were done with the evaluation at a first shot.

It did hit me because it happened the same thing to me the week before. It's like I'm in a row of fail D:
