The PH Nightshift (Vol 2)
Discussion
Yet another night in the library for me....
might call it a night soon though, final exam of the year at midday. Sounds like an easy night for you then 
And the exams on a module called "Systems administration and maintenance" not too worried about it as it's basically what I've been doing as a job for the last 12 months as well. Exam's at 12, then I've got 4 assignments to get finished off and submitted and then I'm done with uni until results day....

Years of job-travelling between time zones have not gone unnoticed... My biological clock is knackered. Almost 1am now, and I'm home going about my business like it's high noon. 'Night' should come around 4-5am I reckon.
Have to say, I really enjoy the peace and quiet of these nights in my town. Seeing the night bus get in from London, the Royal Mail truck and the Costa delivery guy doing their rounds, hearing the birds starting to chirp around 5 o'clock... This is bliss. Just the damn passing taxis keep annoying me for some reason.

its 10:41am for me... Im studying for a professional Risk Management course dedicated to Finance... Back to school and looking at my maths skills again, some of the equations are down right obscene.
If its not that, Im studying functional database programming, or writing a course dedicated for grads to learn hybrid programming.
I thought I had got past learning brand new ideas or teaching people in the Finance world, but nope... Seems like I have a month or two of studying/teaching now.

Sounds like you're going to make a lot of money in a few years' time, painful as it is now. Man, if I had the brains for programming...
This actually brings back some memories from my air force days. Sitting in a watch tower in some desert s
thole, counting bullets in my magazine and listening to (in your case watching) the local wildlife. Indeed, usually freezing in winter and boiling in summer. Good to be reminded of that occasionally, whilst struggling with my current first world problems.

Great but Im a programmer with 15 years experience already.... I just fancied the idea of learning Financial Risk management, to see if I can write something to cover all the equations and then I can use that.Sounds like you're going to make a lot of money in a few years' time, painful as it is now.

Nice and quiet here, just like yesterday. Doing some housework with one of my favourite vlogs, The Saad Truth, playing in the background: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G5-oG0L6ZnU
Some crazy stuff going on in American unis lately. I'm a student myself and can see some of what he's mentioning here in the UK as well. Hope it doesn't go that far.
