English teachers are so cruel.
So I make straight A's all throughout the course, with an exception of one or two B's on minor writing assignments. For my final major paper, I accidentally let one quote go without citing it. So that one quote I missed, my teacher labeled my paper as plagiarism, and therefore I get a 0 which brought my average grade down a lot. All that hard work was for naught. One quote... one.
So basically, how I feel:
That doesn't sound ethical at all, disbarring all marking rules and criteria. I know plagiarism is wrong, but that doesn't sound like plagiarism.

I assume the paper went through a computer scan and immediately picked that up. Don't know if you can take this up and personal to the authorities, but if the rest of your paper was sound, it should be graded. It's BS.

Is it sad that whenever I hear something like this happen at school I'm just like "Yep, sounds about right."
It seems petty of me, but I have very low respect for schools these days.

So, I spent 3 hours in a row of programming and I got exhausted :)

Programming is fun, just don't overdo your brain :)
If you don't mind me asking, which coding language where you using?

I personally only know HTML, Visual Basic and Java.

well, it's a college assignment and it is....Delphi, a sort of Pascal.

Which is honestly not the best language, it's just that they thought it to students because it's easier to learn. Although it is....The IDE and weird stuff in the language makes this a weird experience at time.

I think we'll see other languages in other semesters, but for now, Delphi it is.

For example, I found weird how instead of using curly braces, you use begin - end and there's normally a semicolon after the end, but sometime it doesn't like the end of an if block before an else or else if, but the end of the else will take one....I know, it's confusing.

Though, we do make a complete GUI, basic, but still the basic components of Windows like buttons and list box.

The point is I enjoy the logic of it :)

Also, I have a very basic of HTML and CSS and I actually did tried stuff on C++, but it was just exploring....I'll probably learn more in college :)

So Nintendy is going to spill some E3 news tomorrow, eh? Awesome! Can't wait. Kinda hoping for some Smash DLC news.

Speaking of which, I've noticed a lot of people have been betting :wolf: will be shown just because Star Fox is coming soon. I see a couple flaws on that belief:

1) We have no evidence that Wolf is actually in the upcoming Star Fox game
2) In my opinion a newcomer is much more E3 worthy than a veteran (as it is something new and unexpected), regardless of how well received the veteran was.
3) Remember before Smash 4 was out characters were revealed in connection of new games? Well, they were announced AT the launch of the game, not from the game's announcement/reveal/trailer (so if Wolf is actually in Star Fox, I say much closer to the game's release).

E3 news tomorrow? No thanks, I'd rather check if CSI is canceled for real. :troll:

I'm joking.
