Ten Weeks Gone
So I've pretty much spent the whole summer in Java class at work.
On the plus side, I got to start at 8:00, an hour later than my normal start time, so I got an extra hour of sleep every night. My team, who I think didn't think I actually did anything, had to back me up for the summer and they learned that just because I work quickly doesn't mean I don't work hard. They really struggled trying to do what I do... Oh, and I allegedly know Java now.
On the minus side, it's a royal b**** getting back to my old schedule, I put on 10 lbs. being confined to a classroom 8 hours a day full of soda and candy with 30 minutes for lunch and two, 10 minute breaks.
Week 8 of class was on common design patterns in object-oriented languages. The last pattern we learned was called the "decorator pattern". I had to giggle as it instantly made me think of Peter North.
