Welcome to the blog of Can Sar, a Stanford CS major. This blog is made up of my thoughts on Computer Science and the computer industry, as well as ever exciting tales from my life.
Having 6 midterms in a quarter is not the worst thing in the world, but it is not the greatest either. While my first 2 (Math 51 and CS 240) went exceptionally well, the latter two (EE 108 B and CS 154) could have been a lot better (I have not gotten grades for those yet). I was able to answer most questions on CS 154, but could not answer parts of 2 questions, which were worth a lot of points. I also misread as very short question and got it wrong because of that. I hope that both of those midterms still turn out well, especially EE 108 B, because I just realized that 154 is only worth 15% (not much more than a homework assignment).
I have a math problemset and small program (together with Travis, who is completely swamped with work) due Thursday, and will probably be at VM'04 on Wednesday evening, Thursday, and Friday. Anyone of you Stanford friends, if you feel like driving me to San Jose, I would pay you, and be amazingly happy. Otherwise I will take the Marguerite to the Caltrain, the Caltrain to San Jose, a free shuttle to the San Jose airport and a shuttle to the Hotel from there. The way back will be the same, so I need to finish all my work by tomorrow evening. I also just watched the first CS 244 B lecture from this quarter, a class which I cannot await to take.
