java makes the world go round...


Another day dusks away and a new day dawns. I tried sleeping early tonight but I’d much rather do something constructive as opposed to lying awake in bed. That’s something I simply hate doing! So, today was another hectic albeit monotonous day...woke up at around 9am, bumped into and chatted with an old friend (and undergrad love interest) on messenger, completed my homework, took a shower, got some coffee, studied at the library, attended a class, realized I was hungry and had a sandwich, studied some more at the library, got some more coffee, attended a second class, talked to dorky lab partner about upcoming deadline, cooked dinner, ate dinner, worked on a crossword, watched half a movie, decided to turn in early and hit the sack, got up in sheer frustration, blogged...let’s see what I do next. I have a hypothesis: the more caffeine I pump myself up with, the faster my day seems to pass...and of course…the inevitable corollary: The amount of caffeine intake is directly proportional to productivity. I don’t have anything specific to blog about today... which kinda feels strange. Oh yes, I bought a CD of the Cranberries today. If I ever was in a conversation with a goddess…I know she would sound like Dolores O'Riordan. Dolores can make harsh words sound like a prayer or something! She rules! And I don’t think I can ever get enough of their music…Zombie, Salvation, Just my Imagination, Linger…I can hear them a million times and then some more. Sure, I’ve heard better and equally good music…but my music inventory is incomplete without the Cranberries.
And yes, I also downloaded this fun desktop enhancement that makes my laptop applications look and act like iMac applications. Pretty nifty! I always used to get a little disoriented when I used my notebook after I got back from using the Mac at the library. So now I have a notebook that decently integrates the Mac, XP and Unix. Is that cool or what?

Hey you,
Sounds like a really nice day to me. You do so many things, I am impressed. I remember a time when I could fit all those things into my schedule, and sleep 7 hours, and be alert anyway. Nowadays four hour of work everyday makes me so tired, and more than one other thing planned that day (coffee with a friend/working out) is really enough. I am beat now. Worked 6.5 hours today, and then had coffee with two friends, but at least I went there (before I so often ended up cancelling dates with people because I was just too tired), and I made it. I might be sleepy, but it is alright to sleep now anyway. It is 10pm in Sweden, and cute cat has eaten and is ready to sleep too. Will start reading your blog now, happy that you invited me!
Hope to keep on hearing from you!
