university 

I've enrolled in 2 linguistics courses, just got one more course to enrol in...

but what should it be?

our cat was sitting at the flyscreen door like she usually does, and then she suddenly jumps and runs across the room and crashes into a box

so I look over and a stray has appeared, looking in

annoying thing about my dialect of english 

we don't drop h at the beginning of words (like americans do - we say herb with a h sound, americans usually say erb)

but we actually do drop it in one specific place: the name of the letter h

Last boost: that's why I advocate *so much* for using languages that don't have null

when you don't have null, you can't get null check errors, which are a *huge* proportion of programming errors

Okay, if you ever feel bad about having screwed up your programming, ask any programmer you really respect what their last bug was, and I guarantee it'll be a null check or an equals check accidentally flipped to not-equals. The more experienced you are in this business, the dumber the bugs seem to get.
