Blessing? Or Not?

Lightning struck last Tuesday, messing up the networks at school for sometime, but, even worse, it messed up my internet here at home! From around 3pm that day, I had no access to the internet, now if that was a blessing or a curse I'm not really sure. Yesterday I had a philo test, and because I had no internet, I was able to study. Today I had a math long test, and a history quiz, and miraculously, I was able to study for both! I really hate it when I lose internet time, but at least I got to study a bit more (I still do this though.. but I just had more time to study.. :P)

So happy to get my internet back.. that's why I'm posting! Anyway, lightning still wreaked havoc in school today. The agila server we use for programming went down for a couple of minutes and was on the fritz the whole time. Our programming exercise became doubly hard because of this. I couldn't finish it then because I had a quiz in history right after (in Bellarmine Hall! a lightyear away from SEC!). At any rate, I haev to download a C compiler here and finish the program. I won't know if it'll be correct though, since I can't de-bug it since we're using MPI already (now if only I had a Beowulf cluster here at home... yeah right! :P). Now, back to work first....
