And her name is "Visual Basic .NET!"
For those of you who aren't aware, I'm attending school in order to get my degree in Software Applications and Programming. Last Wednesday I started my first course in actual programming (indeed, my first attempt), and immediately fell in love with the act of creating a program.
Admittedly I'm only doing simple things right now, but there's something pleasant about sitting down and creating a unique string of code that does what you want. When it doesn't work, you know that it's because of what you did and only because of what you did. It's a lovely feeling, even when you mess up.
Which brings me to my point... Why can't girls be like a tidy syntax string?
<_< You look at a compiler window and you can tell what's going on. This action garners this response. As stated above, any reaction- good or bad- is your fault.
But every time I try to befriend a girl, something horrible happens because of factors out of my control. It boggles my mind. If I wasn't so bored with everything around me I'd almost consider allocating a lesser portion of time to the act of obtaining a girlfriend and maybe do something more predictable... like catching meteorites with a ninety-nine cent butterfly net. I think that would be easier, honestly.
