Yay! I apologized to Vaiva and she’s not angry anymore! I just hope I don’t do anything wrong to upset her again, I really wouldn’t like that. I mean, come on, how many times in a row can a person screw up? She’s very important to me and I want to show that at least once.
Yay! I totally pissed of one of my course mates in the university. Nothing personal, maybe she’s a very nice girl and so on, but I got tired of her constant “Could you do this for me?” “Could you do that for me?” “Please, help me do that” approach. I don’t think I am a bad person, but sheesh, why should I do everything for her? And for what? Gratitude? I don’t think she feels any form of gratitude, it has become some kind of… I guess, “duty” is the right word here. Yes, I must do something for her. Riiight. Therefore I decided to put an end to this - I said “Yes, I will do that program for you” and didn’t move a finger for two weeks. Today she asked if I had it done. Hehe. I guess I won’t be hearing a lot of help requests for some time.
Yay! My idea of playing “Diplomacy” by email is totally working, because more and more people get interested in it. Mostly they are from the school I finished three years ago - very nice people, I should say. Anyway, now I start to wonder, when everybody will get tired of it and demand something fresh… Ah well, it’s not coming soon, I think. I have a brilliant idea to buy a large map of Europe and make it a “Diplomacy” board. Yes, I admit, I don’t have the original copy of the game and therefore I must be breaking quite a lot of copyrights by creating games online, however, I don’t care. I’m really not into that copyright stuff and I think it’s fairly stupid.
And speaking of Diplomacy - yay! I have a good outline for the game that combines the best qualities of Diplomacy and Axis&Allies. Now if I could only get it done, I can create a Cyberboard for it and try it out!
And one last yay for the proposal I got yesterday from one dude who teached me artificial intelligence in school (that was a module in advanced computer science). I can’t tell you much now, because it hasn’t even reached a project phase, but the idea is fairly interesting and challenging. It has to do something with maths - which is my speciality - so I’m looking forward to developing that idea further.
