Well, big Arabic news for today. It was a great day! I talked with my teacher that I've got individual readings with, she's gonna place me in A350. That means that after this year, my Arabic is over. Well, my official language classes. I still get to take all the fun stuff. I also tested into the Second level Iraqi class, just on the power of telling her I'd start working now, and work my butt off next semester. This is an awesome teacher. She's Iraqi herself, and her brother helped to write one of the Constitution drafts! I'll also take Intro to Arabic Linguistics, and Multimedia Arabic. 4 Arabic courses. Should be an AWESOME semester. Note, no CS ones.

While we were talkig, instead of working, I brought up a program I'd worked on over the summer. It'll conjugate Arabic verbs for practice. She wants me to clean it up, and perhaps the department will accept it as a learning tool! Of course, this'll be FOSS only, and I won't ask for any money.
