twincityhackerI took my last final today, and I have to say that the infomatic final went the best.
Perhaps it was because I didn't have to write three essays for it like my Spanish and Ethics finals. And didn't have anything to do with syntax, which is always good.
Other than that, I went and shipped my Christmas gifts. And I just realized I didn't turn in the rest of the bookeeping things for this semester. Though I still have Friday to clean house.
In a word, I didn't paricualarly accomplish anything important - though my brain thought it was vitaly important to start gluing together some of my worldbuildiing notes. So I got to poke around Latin sites and Greek sites and Wikipedia trying to get the correct form of words for the name of a fake company. I ended up with Lux Chemeia, though it's probably not right as "Chemeia" is Greek and "Lux" is Latin, but they didn't have "alchemy" in Latin, so I had to go with the Greek.
Unless "alchemy" is actually Latin, then it's just because the Greek word for "lux" isn't as pretty.
Yes, my favorite part of world building is the tiny, almost pointless details. Much like I've taken it as my cannon that Dr. F was some breed of psychologist and Dr. E was a nueroscientist, but it makes sense in my head so I'm sticking to it.
Though Dr. F was called a psychologist by someone else first. I'm fuzzy on the who exactly, but I think it's![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
krwalker cannon, yes?
And I have no problem with the new interface either. I was a bit WTF at first because I had just installed some new stuff to Firefox, so I thought it was just me that had the new design. Nice to know I'm not going mad, though.
