Which is great, as long as you don't zig straight into a concrete pylon. :-)

Comming up with creative solutions to complex problems is what computer 
science is all about. Your creativity is what is going to bail you out 
of a millon problems in the future. So there's nothing wrong with being 
original, just do it for the right reasons. Often times there's a good 
reason everyone is doing it a certian way. So if your "original" 
solution is more work and less easy to follow (and for you to get 
working), you should probably give the boring approach another look. :-)
