Nearing the End of the Semester: A look back
A semester has already past, that sure was fast, but then again no one really notices. A semester in Computer Programming, looking back on it, how did I ever survive? First of all, I'm not that good at problem solving by myself, which is why I'm more like a rock who does great in group work. Working in HTML was sort of fun because we made a basic web page with links, those were the days. Then we moved onto Scratch, another irksome program cause someone here had a problem with it. However, that was when we were introduced to "and" and "or" which made things a little easier to comprehend when we eventually moved onto Jeroo and eventually onto Python. However, I say "a little easier" because I still had difficulty with the program. My luck with computers has still not gotten any better. Yet I'm trying and getting the hang of it. I pray one day when I'll be able to do things without an error. Ah, who am I kidding? I'm going to get a bunch of errors in one line. But I can still dream. Talking of dreaming, working in Jeroo has made me dream of flowers, water and nets. Although, to be honest, the nets look like brick walls in my opinion. How they ever came to be known as nets is a mystery to me. Jeroo is my worst enemy at times and at other times, it's that jerk of a friend who occasionally helps me and then leaves me on my own, but helps me out again. I shall tame you Jeroo, one day. By the way, I still do not know what a Jeroo looks like, I've been imagining it as a kangaroo except it has an arrow for a head instead. That is also very creepy now that I realize it. Back on the topic, the final exam on Jeroo is coming up, and my nerves have not gotten any better. I'm just hoping it isn't too hard of a problem, cause if it is, I'm just going to cry or yell, although I probably won't. Events sure pass by in computer programming don't it? The most vivid thing that I can remember is David saying "ghost mouse," I swear if he says that one more time, I am going to revenge, that or keep calling him a jerk. Hmmm, I wonder if Python is going to be just as hard as Jeroo? It uses the same language, so I guess it will be similar, although I doubt that there is going to be an arrowhead, flowers, nets and water. After Python, I really want to start working on Java, mainly because it seems to be the most well known mainstream language. I guess that's it for this week, and of my reflection of the fall semester.
