New semester.
New course load.
New job.
New repertoire.
New outlook? Not sure. The courses, beside the two carry-over Political Science classes, include CSC401 (Natural Language Computing, aka "munging giant swathes of text in Python"), CSC343 (Databases, aka "welcome to db2, here's your accordion") and CSC373 (Algorithms, aka "if it were any more theoretical, it would be theological").
Music is a little more "directed" this semester. It's all about a series of recording sessions, which should encompass about 10-14 tunes, all of which appear fairly difficult. Onoscat is definitely giving its members a push.
And, er. Dude. I just realized that song I'd been trying to identify for about 4 months was in fact a Sneaker Pimps tune, "How Do". There we go. Much better.
