Today has been pretty fun. I didn't get drunk (saving it for after exams... it'll be crazy), but I did go to a party. There was a hardcore band playing. It was pretty insane. I generally don't listen to that type of music, but from the stuff I have heard, they stack up decently. It's not the sort of music that I would listen to on a regular basis, but it's fun to have around for the variety.
Before the concert, I did general nerd stuff. The next paragraph will be a description of this stuff, so skip it if you don't care. I did a few minor changes to the actual code of the ffsearch frontend, getting it ready for the overhaul which will occur this summer, but most of the work was done in the CSS file. I made it look more like a "professional" website, with a better color scheme, and a little cleaner in general. I like it enough that I'll probably re-do my blog template with it. It should be hot. I can't wait for summer. I'm going to make my own content management system. I'll have user authentication, templates (inspired by the blogger templates, actually), and general awesomeness which will be complete overkill for what I'm using the site for. Really all it needs to be is a spiced up database frontend, but I enjoy cutting my programming teeth on the tastier stuff.
I found out today that I should be able to work at ITS over the summer. That, coupled with odd jobs for friends of the family should provide the much-needed cash to pay for stuff next semester, like dues and food and so on. I'll have to conduct a feasibility study on commuting from Monroe to Hillsdale. Maybe they'll let me stay in my dorm room. Or maybe I could stay in the house.
Well, that's all for the moment. I have some more stuff that's been percolating through the ol' noodle, but I don't feel like finishing the thoughts well enough to put them into words. Maybe next time.
