Say It If It's Worth Saving Me
Everything's getting a bit hectic now. The link to Perplex City has reopened, and through it seems to be sucking all my free time. We have contact with our Perplexian friends again, and they're updating faster than ever in order, seemingly to make up for the past three month's lack of activity. And what a busy few days it's been - Sente's been arrested, Kurt's been fired, Scarlett's been kidnapped... So basically, a lot's happened.
The "Cube Retrieval Team" on Earth has also been getting strange messages, from the Third Power, the schneeky group that's trying to find the Cube before us. Something about them having something.. And the latest one, received today, says:
19012701215
To Earth operatives: Package aboard, in transit to secure facility. Not long now.
No idea what this could mean.. But it may have something to do with yesterday's received message:
18012700448
To Earth operatives
We have gained access
A genuine non-repro Earth artefact dating from the time of the original theft has been discovered, confirming our initial hypothesis.
Our contact will schedule package pick up tomorrow.Earth teams on standby - anticipate successful completion imminently
The plot continues.
Meanwhile, on the school front, I've been given a whole load more work to do. I was leafing through a C1, C2, and S1 text book (Those are the AS maths modules), and they didn't look like the same syllabus that I did with the other exam board. So I've been given the text books, and I've got to go through those and make sure I understand them for next year. Ugh. Still, not all bad news. It also turns out that I've already done about 3/4 of the S2 work, which is next years Statistics module, in the S1 module of my previous exam board. So next year's going to be nice and easy in pure maths =)
I've also been looking into open days at Aberystwyth, but strangely they only seem to accept open days from students that have already applied. I know, it makes absolutely no sense to me either. And I can't apply until mid-September, meaning that I can't go on an open day until next February. o_O;
In Computing, I have completed task 2, and task 3 parts a-c. This is important for me to state repeatedly, because if I don't keep telling myself that, then I'll just keep redoing and redoing them. No, I have completed them, and am NEVER EVER GOING TO LOOK AT THEM AGAIN. Right, now that's sorted out. I'm also the class swot in Computing, it seems. I'm the only person that understands programming, think it through logically and can write structured codes, rather than just making a random collection of statements that doesn't work as a program. So I'm the one that has to go around the class helping other people. *sigh* The price of being good, eh?
I've ordered the three Torchwood novels from Amazon. So those are going to be my first reads on my big 50-books-in-a-year list. I should get through them all pretty quickly.
So, my 50 books for the year so far:
1) Another Life [Torchwood] - Peter Anghelides
2) Border Princes [Torchwood] - Dan Abnett
3) Slow Decay [Torchwood] - Andrew Lane
I'm also still waiting for Final Fantasy III for the DS that I ordered a few weeks ago. *sigh*.
Mmm, this post's been very long, I should probably end it soon. Actually, yeah, I will. But first, I'll leave you with an awesome song, by Nickelback.
Nickelback - Savin' Me
Enjoy.
