Having to live with the fact that you formatted your C drive, when you did not take any backup of projects and systems that basically are your entire life’s savings. That had specific bits and pieces of stuff that you use all the time, and now you will have to recode from scratch again. That had specific systems that are essential for some people, and now you’ll have to do all from scratch, again.

Having to live with the fact that you cannot use your wireless network card because you were too dumb to figure out that you don’t have the Drivers CD before you decided to press the “F” button (to finally give permission to format your partition.)

Disastrous too, and shocking. And I couldn’t post about it earlier on because? Oh yeah, the server was down as well. How worse can a nightmare be?

Regardless. Today was my first day at the GUC. It was only an orientation day - more of a “welcome to university” bunch of lectures. A few set of rules, regulations, how-to’s, where abouts, we are’s, and why to’s. It’s quite interesting the facilities they have I must admit, pretty extensive and unique too. The Dean of the Engineering Faculty seems interesting, I liked his presentation quite much, the most actually, he’s quite live and the lecture was pounding with energy - except the use of certain vocabulary more than necessary I must say.

They should be sending us our personalized schedules by Saturday, to our email - heh. They have an internship department. Interesting, seriously. We had a tour around the campus and the thing looks absolutely stunning.

Oh, and finally had some free time to finish off the scope online registration. Please take the time to register here if you’re going to show up to have your scope ID printed out for you before hand. This scope seems to be quite different, I hope.
