Over the past month or so, I have been playing a fair bit of minesweeper. You know what minesweeper is, that silly little game that comes with Windows. You probably wonder why I have been playing it, because it is a boring game to play and there are real games available, for purchasing or for obtaining illegally. The main reason of doing it is to compete with a friend. We have been trying to get the lowest score out of the both of us.

After the many hours playing Minesweeper, I have become pretty decent at it, to the point where in a lot of instances, I don’t have to think about where to click, I just click right. My high scores on each of the modes are as follows, beginner at an amazing 6 seconds, intermediate at a quick 85 seconds and advanced as a decent 342 seconds. I’m sure anyone could beat those scores so go ahead, if I can do it that quick/slow, you must be able to do it much faster.

With all the hours of Minesweeper down my sleeve, the game has turned into an obsession. I think about minesweeper and dream about minesweeper. I think that is one sign of insanity and I must now put my minesweeper glove and mouse down and move on to bigger and better things. I enjoyed playing and trying to get the fastest time I could.

From now, I will have no more school for 2 weeks. This has been a long term consisting of 11 weeks, although there was Easter break in the middle somewhere so it was probably more like 10 and a half weeks. Still, the term has been pretty long and has been pretty busy, as you would know if you have read the post from last week.

As far as schools concerned, we haven’t done that much at all this term. Have had 2 assessments in Statistics, which I managed to get an Excellence in, and the other one hasn’t been marked, 1 assessment in Geography, which hasn’t been marked either, 2 assessments in ICT, one passed, other not marked (but will be a pass),  1 assessment in Electronics which I passed and 1 in Physics which hasn’t been marked, but I know I haven’t passed it, yet.

Last day pretty much was mucking around. In ICT, I had finished the test in 2 and a half of the 4 periods given, so I ended up browsing the Internet and playing Minesweeper. In Electronics, I helped a friend try and troubleshoot a computer but it was well and truly fucked, then I started installing Windows XP on another machine and later on helped, which turned out to be actually doing it, installing RAM into another machine. Then last period of the day was the Physics test which was hard. Got to leave early which was a upside, I guess.

I don’t have anything planned for the holidays but it will more than likely consist of my being on the computer and internet doing basically nothing. Two weeks after doing that, school will start again. Not really looking forward to that but it will be nice to get test results back. Hopefully I can think of things to blog about during my holidays to make up for the lack of posts during the school time. HOLIDAYS ARE GO!!!
