New Classes pt.II
Sun January 25th, 2009 at 8:10 PM PST
Two weeks are now in the books, and things are looking good.

The other classes I didn't mention in the last entry:

CS 422: User Interface Design and Programming. I'm definitely liking this class a lot. Partly because it's actually teaching me something useful that I'm not very good at and don't have a lot of practice with, and partly because most of my CS buddies are in this class, and partly because the prof is pretty attractive. Phase 1 of this class is about learning how to use Qt 4.4 to do useful things. Phase 2 is about designing good interfaces, something I really have no experience with and badly need to learn. Phase 3 is about "non-desktop UIs", and I think that is where we will learn Flash / ActionScript and maybe do a cellphone app. Very exciting stuff.

HIST 177: Middle Eastern Civilization. This, I think, will be a very enlightening and interesting class. Seeing as how more and more the U.S. is becoming involved in the Middle East, it's good to know stuff like this. We started out learning about the basics of Islam, since that's what everything there is based on, and then we'll continue from there into early Middle-Eastern history, and up to the modern age.
