Shiznit
Alright, two exams down, three left to go. I had some Digital Systems and some Operating Systems to do. I think they went alright, considering i sporadically went to class the last month and had to teach the courses to myself. I find it a bit easier at the end, when you cram it all together and get a solid view of the big picture. Although, that shit doesn’t pan out sometimes and you’re left just staring at the exam and the fine wood grain surface of the desk.

Wife-Carrying
I was briefly concerned that the sport of wife-carrying was restrictive in the sense that you needed to have a wife. Although, I guess it’s just some sort of figurative thing, like ‘Tennis’. I was also worried about the polygamists, carrying three wives would be much harder than carrying one.

It’s getting weirder
Well, someone writing fortune cookies has a sense of humour. I just finished eating my chinese take-out and pulled this fortune out of the cookie:
You may be hungry soon: order a takeout now.
It must have been a slow day at work. I have to admit it’s one of the better fortunes I’ve seen though.
