Ew

We were on the OAU campus the other day.

I'm participating in a workshop about National Instruments LabVIEW. It's a graphical proggraming language and environment. For all of you non-geeks out there it means that it computer stuff. Anyway while we were walking to the lesson there was this HORRIBLE smell. It was really really really bad. Super bad. I had no idea where it was coming from. Can you guess what it was? It was sewage. It had rained recently and the rainwater sloshed up all of the sewage below our feet. There are sewage vents throughout the building channeling the stench above ground! EPIC FAIL ARCHITECTS. EPIC. FAIL. Fail to the nth power. Yeah. That bad. The class itself was pretty good though. I'm going again at 2. It's really long, today it's from 2 to about 7! I'll be there for like half of the day, so I better bring my power cord for my laptop. Some of the poor students had nowhere to plug their computers in just like me. Unfortunately for them their laptops' batteries were really weak. They died within the first 20 minutes. :( At least it's getting me closer to my goal. Soon I'll be a coding extraordinaire!
