I've survived my writtens. I have yet to take my orals. In any event, thought I'd just do a little blurb on the written exams.
Monday, November 3: Carbon, water, and energy cycles in coniferous forests
Format: Closed book
Duration: 12 hours
Pain rating: 6/10
First words uttered: Thank goodness...
Tuesday, November 4: Spatial statistics, ontological modeling, scaling up
Format: Open book
Duration: 48 hours
Pain rating: 11/10 (yes, I typed THAT right)
First words uttered: Heilige scheisse!
Friday, November 7: Artificial neural networks
Format: Closed book
Duration: 8 hours
Pain rating: 3/10
First words uttered: Whew!
Sunday, November 9: Carbon sequestration and exchange
Format: Open book
Duration: 8 hours
Pain rating: 7/10
First words uttered: What the frequency...?
Monday, November 10: GIS
Format: Open book
Duration: 1 day
Pain rating: 3/10
First words uttered: Uhh... is this a gimme or a trap?
I'll have a lot more coming up once I regain a bit more brain function.
Other random updates:
-- Working bit by bit on the sequel to The Lay of Imladrien and Tinuvion, may be putting up snippets of "rejected" materials sometime soon, probably after the orals
-- There may be some rearrangement in my bow collection... more word on that after some experiments on myself.
