Well, I've been writing these monthly news posts for the past year now. I'm not sure whether or not I'll go for the same format next year or just go back to making random news posts. I quite like the structure that comes with writing these every month, so I'll probably just end up doing the same thing again next year. That's good news for you, because you get to read even more mundane shit about my life. Yay!
So, what does December bring? Well firstly, exams. I have three exams to sit. Computer Graphics on the 5th, Artificial Intelligence & Intelligent Agents on the 8th and Foundations 1 on the 14th. I'm not particularly looking forward to any of them, but I don't think they should be too bad. I guess I can give my opinion of how they went after I sit them, because I know you're just so eager to know.
Aside from exams and all that jazz, Christmas is also pretty close. I've still bought no gifts for anyone yet. For the last Christmas (or two) I've been trying to avoid buying people DVDs because lets face it, they're shit and boring. Now my problem is that if I want to be more creative with my gift ideas then I actually have to spend time hunting for stuff. So if any of you guys have suggestions for what I could get my 17 year old brother or my 11 year old sister, please leave a comment and save me some time.
It's also just over a month until the NG Manchester Meet, which is quite scary considering I'm still not even 100% sure that I'll be able to attend. I'd love to go back see some of the people that I previously met and some new users that I've not yet met. Quite looking forward to finally meeting Tramps (assuming he goes) and iMini, having a laugh with Jawdyn again and reuniting with my homie, Fim, for the third time. The Manchester Meet was great fun last year, so if you're reading this and considering whether or not it's worth going, I recommend it.
So that pretty much sums up my expectations for this month. Feeling festive yet?

Computer Graphics Exam - 05/12/11
Well, I think the exam went reasonably well. I realised at the end that I'd made a few silly mistakes early on but by this point it would mean having to change my entire answer, so I just stuck with it and hopefully you get marks for carrying on with a wrong answer or something. Either way, I think that went fairly well. I'm predicting a B for that class although hopefully that wont jinx it.

Artificial Intelligence Exam - 08/12/11
The general opinion amongst the people that I spoke to who sat the exam thought it was pretty damn hard. I have to agree. It seemed far harder than the three past papers that I looked at and there were some things in there that I didn't even recognise from the lectures. Oh well, hopefully I did enough to pass. My prediction for that exam is either a D or C at this rate.
Also, due to severe winds I'm pretty much stranded on campus for now. Hopefully I wont actually have to spend the night here but as a last resort, that may happen. I don't have much luck with things like this. Last year I almost got stuck on campus due to heavy snow. Seriously, wind stopping public transport? Get a grip of yourself, health and safety people.

Foundations 1 Exam - 05/12/11
Well, this turned out the be the exam that I feel most confident about. It was also the last of my exams so now I'm officially on my Christmas holidays. Yay! Think I have to wait a fair while yet before I get any of my results back though.
