Funny, I also have a week before entering Danish education.

[Shook]

[timing and coincidence intensifies]

Well, i hope you'll enjoy your stay on this silly little peninsula, and hopefully you won't suffer too much under the politicians mucking around with the educational system. :v

... so that's a khezu, huh. Seen it before, but never bothered to find out what it's called. Suddenly its inclusion in the happy thread title makes more sense >_>

You do it.

Don't worry guys I'll do it!
... What?

Hark, it's the mating call of the elusive vore fetishist.
Notice the colorful plumage and lack of sharp edges.

Here, let me give you your first lesson of the Danish school.

Did the Danes learn from the Glaswegians?

Feeling good about the upcoming year of Scioly. Went all the way up the ladder with my team last year, had to go to Nationals to stop being exceptional and start being average. Heh. Now I'm setting goals and studying, and I have a challenge for myself. One whose failure leads to nothing but slight sadness, but whose triumph will be incredible. If I don't make it, it's not the end of the world, no repercussions. Just the kind of challenge I like.

(also if it seems like I'm bragging, well, I am kind of proud about myself, but this is literally the only part of myself that I'm proud about (the academic/intellectual etc. part) so I think I deserve a bit of pride after the last 15 years)

Feels good to debug a program or algorithm so it works correctly. Aaaaaaaaw yiss that scratches my problem solving itch just right.

When do politicians ever do anything else? :/

Also, new Danish news - my sister and brother have decided to go on holiday for a short time during my stay there. I'll not be a depressed loner! (for part of the time.)

Can we add proof to that list? Absolutely amazing feeling. Until you realize the but that you missed.

0th rule of programming:  There are bugs.

Personally, my next three rules come from Perl creator Larry Wall:

Laziness
    The quality that makes you go to great effort to reduce overall energy expenditure. It makes you write labor-saving programs that other people will find useful, and document what you wrote so you don't have to answer so many questions about it. Hence, the first great virtue of a programmer. Also hence, this book. See also impatience and hubris. (p.609)

Impatience
    The anger you feel when the computer is being lazy. This makes you write programs that don't just react to your needs, but actually anticipate them. Or at least pretend to. Hence, the second great virtue of a programmer. See also laziness and hubris. (p.608)

Hubris
    Excessive pride, the sort of thing Zeus zaps you for. Also the quality that makes you write (and maintain) programs that other people won't want to say bad things about. Hence, the third great virtue of a programmer. See also laziness and impatience. (p.607)
