Reflection on Week 11

Two day week, the week of Turkey and rest...except not.
First off, all three of the laptops in my possession (my netbook, my big laptop that actually has processing capabilities, and the really old laptop which the new one replaced) managed to have major problems in the same week. One got a broken screen, one found over 200 articles of spyware (dunno how that happened), and one had a sporadic power cord. Overall, not the best electronics week.
That extends into class too. I am so far behind, in a residual effect from Harvard. I am on the last of my while/doWhile labs, which is proving horrendous. I find very interesting, and not the least slightly frustrating, the almost exponential increase in the difficulty of these labs. I'm accustomed to not having to think too much on the labs, taking it instead as an opportunity to practice concepts. But now, instead of practicing, we are applying concepts. This is, in my opinion, an excellent thing, except for the fact that it is frustrating because you have no clue what the heck you're going to do.
