So I spent 3 hours of my Saturday afternoon meeting with my advisor for this graduate-level independent study course I'm taking (incidentally, its official title is 'Real-time Multimedia Simulation', which is just egghead speak for 'Learn To Make Your Own Video Game Engine'), discussing my ideas for my two projects that are due this semester. About 20 minutes in, I had this 'pinch me' moment, because I couldn't believe I was where I was at that moment. I never thought I'd go back to school, yet there I was, taking notes like a model student. I cannot describe the stiffness of the emotional hard-on I got at that moment. Yeah, school excites me. Those of you who have met me in real life can see that I'm a geek. Are you that surprised that I get wood every time I see my GPA?
