It's amazing what one can assimilate in a day

Well, today has been one of the most productive days I’ve had for a long time. I started revising Latin at 8:00am, and finished that batch at 9:50am, at which point I rushed off for a French lesson. I then started Latin again at 11:00, and worked through till luncheon at 1:00pm. Immediately afterwards was my Latin exam, which was pretty easy; and now I’ve been hacking on KLatin for a bit.

Oh, and “sl”, aka “steam locomotive” in Gentoo is hideously time consuming. If you ever type “ls” wrong, have fun watching ascii art for the next 5 minutes as a massive steam train runs through a level crossing with about 25 carraiges attached to it! What’s more - you can’t kill it by ordinary means (ctrl-c), so you’re going to have to know its escape key combination.. And no, I’m not going to tell you what it is.. :P

Ahh… the joys of Linux.
