Monday Night

I promised you some photos so here are some from my Blackberry.


Starbucks where I spend a lot of time.
Catholic church in Petaling Jaya.
A squat toilet - I have yet to use one :-)
Another pic of a squat toilet..
A urinal. The water flows all the time. That is either wasteful, or it is being recycled (I think not!)

Today we slowed down and backtracked a bit in class now that the students know were we are going.  They seem quite happy with were we are goind and some of them have the lights on in their eyes with excitement.

We started out reviewing variables, private vs public and typing. Then it was a review of functions and passing in parameters and returning a value.

We then did some code review and decided we could make some routines more efficient.  That is a job for tomorrow.  I am a little worried that I only have 3 students registered for the programming contest.  They are probably the winners and I think the other 9 students realized that and are conceding the prize money.  Does not make for much of a contest with 3 prizes and 3 contestants. I am not sure what to do.

The van did not show up to pick us up this morning and we had to walk.  We have a new driver and that is now 2 no shows in 3 weeks.  It's a real bummer if you have an 8 o'clock start as you have to walk quickly to get there and are dripping sweat by the time you arrive. Could be worse I suppose as you could be walking through a blizzard back home.
