Decided to give up passport forgery and drug smuggling so I can try my hand as a documentary filmmaker.

    I think I liked your passport forger and drug smuggling better.

    I'll probably change it back at some point, but I did want to try something new for a while at least. We'll see what happens.

    good luck, hope you don't have any research you were planning to get done this fall :S

    is it a 5/5 or is your spring going to be lighter? do you know what the courses will be?

    I'm teaching at a bunch of different places; 2 courses at one location, two at another, and one at the third. I'm not sure how spring is going to be, but it looks like some of the places I'm teaching at are a bit short-handed. Two of the locations I teach at wanted to give me another course.

Some of the things I'm teaching I've done so many times that I actually start to get bored of hearing myself talk in the middle of my own sentences.

    That sounds pretty frustrating. English is a pretty dumb language in a lot of ways, and doesn't sound great with an American accent anyways, so they really don't have any reason to complain, honestly.

    it can be annoying but certain persons think it's 'exotic' so ^_^

    Speaking of listening to yourself speak, I (and a dozen other officers) got the privilege of watching a recording of me answering questions on camera after our recent training event. I was cracking up the entire time- it was supposed to be one of those 'how much do you know what's going on in this scenario' sort of things, but I'm the guy more or less in charge of knowing what the entire scenario was about. Talk about over-answering!

    woo let's talk about plato and his terrible political theory

    Indeed. Teaching The Republic in intro classes gets awkward, because most students taking an Intro to Philosophy class were not expecting to talk about bizarre political and social arrangements, determining birth by lots, etc. You get a lot of perplexed looks from your students.

    yeah it's one of those things where the ideas you want to get from it are one thing but the actual mechanics of reading it to get those ideas are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT and fairly obnoxious

Not that it's of any particular consequence to anyone, but I'll probably be out of BSN for the weekend.

Nothing really to report, but I had to find some excuse to get rid of my Easter-themed status update.

Finished Hotline Miami 2, and I STILL have no idea what it's about.

Enjoying the heck out of Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number, even though I still have no idea what it's about despite being more than halfway through the game.

Teaching myself some super-basic C++; I've finished a few highly trivial programs and am irrationally excited about them.

    Nothing irrational about successfully getting the basics of programming. Kudos!

    Hi Dean! Actually, I did recently finish a two-player tic tac toe game; it's not user friendly at all (to place your pieces, you have to first enter the row and then the column number for the space you want to go to), and I'm pretty sure the way I coded it is the least efficient way imaginable, but it is functional.

Still haven't gotten very far in DAI, but I'm already starting to get a little weary of being told how big a deal my character is.

    Pretty much. Progress is slow; I've been busy, and I also have to admit that my motivation to play the game for extended periods of time is not great. We'll see what happens.

Just got started on DA:I; running a female Qunari mage. The game is running on the slow slide, though, so I haven't gotten anywhere yet..

    Free advice- get out of the hinterlands. You can always go back.

    Thanks for the advice! I'll keep that in mind, and I'll be sure to let you know how things go.

    Thanks! My brother got it for me for the holidays, so I'll actually be playing it pretty soon. I'll let you know how it goes.

May end up getting DAI for the holidays. Until then, trying my best to avoid spoilers.

    Can't speak for Eirene obviously, but I like mine. :) The only thing I would add is that my work would probably focus on the most impractical, unusable bits of knowledge imaginable, like Thedas' equivalent of the higher-order truths of chmess (http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~drkelly/DCDChmess2006.pdf).
