Scripting and Scripting

Looks like I'll be delving into a good bit of scripting pretty soon.
I'm just sort of wrapping up my web design work with the Oxford Lions' Club. I need to design a few more pages, but it's all working with GUI software. No real coding involved. I can push out a few pages in a cinch. Nonetheless, it's still fairly rewarding.

However, I have a final project for my research class. I'm doing some work on the class website. I believe that to get a nice big 'ol A on my Final, I'll do some work with the source code for our platform. Maybe make a plug-in. Looks like they work with PHP. Time to brush up on that. I haven't really gotten into PHP... ever. Though I have wanted to many times. Just never had the drive.

Along with the academic responsibilities, I picked up a fairly nice little guide on Bash scripting, while I was using "stumbleupon". (I'm addicted, really). I started that up. I really enjoy it. It's essentially like mixing two of my favorite things:

1) The feeling of cruising through a Unix-based terminal.
2) The feeling of writing something useful that I can put into work frequently.

That is all for today. Happy coding!
