So, right, we have this project in Operating Systems, right? And it's not a really difficult project, but it's based on a Language we don't know. Imagine being told to write a paper in Russian. But, apparently there IS a way to work it in a language we know, and so when me and Jim we working through it, I thought we were getting somewhere... we had a GUI, and it was working fine in it's own world, so I figured we just needed to hook it up to a few Sockets and a Router and we'd be done -- roughshod, but done. Then we remembered that the whole damn point of this project is to create a message bus, which neither of us know the first place to start with.

For those of you unable to follow, here's the simple version:
I have a project due tomorrow that will not be done.

Yeah, I'm having a wonderful time. I would have dropped this class except for one little point, that being that everyone else is going to fail, too, and if I dropped it now, I'd have to take it next year, anyways, and I'd be in the same possition but without my group.

I think I understand the class, generally, it's not that hard. But I don't feel I'm up to par for the projects, and it's really souring my mood.
-sigh- I should do something...

hey what language are you writing it in, and what language do you not know?

Anywho, when you finish the message system, I have an idea for you, I think I told you about it though. Anywho, if everyone fails, everyone is curved :P

We're writing it in Java, cause that's what we've been taught, and we don't know C/C++. Imagine, a class in Operating Systems and no one can code C...

Yeah, I don't care right now. I'll turn in what we've got and skrew the rest.
What was the idea that you had?

OOh! Could you teach me all about the inner mysteries of compters? I need to get my own computer when I move but I want to be familiar with the innards when I do...
