To infinity ... and beyond

[Silence]
To begin at the beginning:

Well, thats enough of Dylan Thomas for the moment. He resorted to alcohol when it got tough, but he produced some great poetry through it. But for an M359'er alcohol was the last thing on the mind. Cramming it full of every fact, every technique, every thing that I could so that I might stand a chance in the exam ... and now waiting. Waiting for the long nights and short days of December. And a result.

One thing is certain - there's no distinction this time! But will it be a 2 or a 3? Or will it be a fail? Almost impossible to fathom and I dare not think about it.

So now am in this gap, this place of limbo, between M359 and MT262. But the time is not being wasted. Instead, I am deep into restudying Java - not from the M254 books, but from other published work. Getting to grips again with Object Orientation and learning to 'do it properly'. What fun! So much better that those dark, sloe-black, slow black (note to self; stop this Dylan Thomas stuff) days and nights spent studying databases.
