Weekends (Oct 11 2003 18:50 GMT) - Working on weekends isn’t exactly my favourite dish, especially when it’s raining like hell outside. But we have this deadline that we would like to make. Some of my teachers think we do nothing besides programming, so they give us these assignments that take forever to finish, it’s hell on earth. They basically make us sit in front of a computer every single free hour during the week, plus weekends. It’s not like I don’t like to code, but I need space time to other things, or don’t do nothing at all, it’s some sort of therapy that I need to take, so I can function well. |
