Mood: the warmth of the sun striking my cheek, loved, bored, creative

Weather
Although the sun is gently caressing my cheek, it is actually quite cold outside.

Shakespeare
This girl sitting next to me has this big book and is currently reading romeo and juliet.  ...that turns me on so much, omfg.

Cleaning
I should take my laptop offline this weekend and give it a good cleaning.  It is expected that the case would get fingerprints and dirt all over it, but the screen is a little dirty too and there is dust and hairs under the keyboard.
Usually, I've just been wiping the dust off the screen, and I don't really get any finger prints on it, but I think a damp cloth would probably do fine.

Work
I work tonight and tomorrow.  The schedule made me happy though, since I'll be done at 9pm tonight.  and tomorrow seems to be a 10 till 5 shift.

Thanks
Seriously, thank you to everyone who has been sticking with me, even when I have been getting emo and acting really selfish.  I really appreciate it.

Blogging
I don't know why I do it.
I don't know if I'm any good at it.
I don't know how many people bother to read it.
But for some reason, I enjoy doing it.  
Also, in a sense, I enjoy having the record of my thoughts.  Sometimes I read back towards the beginning and think about how I've changed and how I've stayed the same.

Art
So yesterday, I uploaded a couple of pictures.  If my creativity holds out long enough, I'll see if I can get a poem or two or maybe even a story up.  And of course, more pictures.  I'm on my way downtown right now, so I'll see if anything is inspiring or pretty.  

Hatred of writing
Well, I''ve always said I hated writing.  Well, I did (and still do).  But it was more a hatred of forced writing.  I'd do well on essays when I had fun and was controversial.  For a guy that hates writing, I certainly do a lot of it!

Hatred of coding
Lol, never thought it would happen, but it did.  I honestly see code as an artform.  There is a certain degree of creativity involved.  But, like writing, when I'm forced to do it, it really stifles my creativity.  Don't get me wrong, I love computers and code.  I just don't like having to submit it for marks :P

Console menu
Sometimes, I wish I could hit tab and open up a console menu.  (Tilde, maybe?)  But in real life.  When the bus was going up the hill, I had a perfect view of the river valley and it would have been nice had I been able to enable no-clipping mode and fly mode.  Then I could have gotten some amazing shots.  

The future
I see social networking and blogging and that sort of thing really taking off soon.  To an insanely large exponential growth that will shock many people.
I want my nanotechnology though.  Then I'll have computers in my body, and wireless, of course.  I'll be able to be connected anywhere.  If I see a beautiful scene, I can record the image directly from my eyes.  
I'm sure there will be downsides, and perhaps the government will attempt to limit or restrict the technologies use in humans, but I WILL have it.  At any cost.  Defiant till the end, rawr.  I've wanted it for years.

Mood:  Energetic/refreshed/excited

The end of one era...

...the beginning of another

Weather:
(omfg wait.  This dude in goth/punk clothes got on the bus.  And although he isn't that good looking, the black with metal look is pretty cool.  But his shoes!  OMFG!  They are huge and omfg so sexy! *drools*  They are very bulky and I dunno why they are so hot)
It's about -35 degrees Celsius with the windchill.  It is pretty windy and there is a lot of blowing snow.  I was thinking of going across to the mall today during my spare to get a haircut but... heh, I may just choose to stay inside.

School:
Well, after writing my midterm in electronics and being pretty confident that I failed, I was surprised to find that I actually got 60% (or is that a 66%?  I can't read his writing).  We were allowed to bring in a double sided sheet with whatever formulas we wanted to use.  Of course, I forgot, but a good friend had taken notes on the course electronically (these notes were amazing), and we printed them out and managed to fit four highly relevant pages of notes on there.  This saved my ass and I really owe him.  Unfortunately, he didn't do so well on the test.

The blogosphere:
So I technically have three blogs.  My vox blog, my livejournal, and my blog.  However, I usually cross post to ALL the sites I'm on.
I'm considering a different format.
I'm going to try posting my blogs on the blog sites and link to them in my artsite journals.  The artsite journals will probably  contain more relevant info to the specific site I'm on.  I'll also post the tags that I think the blog falls under so you know if you are interested or not.
You can leave comments on these blogs at any of the places where I post them.
Oh!  I'm also on del.icio.us, which, if you don't know, is sort of a bookmark sharing community thing.  http://del.icio.us/nikuramon.  I'll link neat stuff there, check it out sometimes.  You can probably also subscribe to an atom or rss feed of some of my blogs, if you need more information of how, let me know.

Social networking:
I've joined a couple new sites and updated my info on some older ones.
It's always been my opinion that the internets greatest resource is the people who use it.  Not just read  the information, but actually choose to add to it.  
I feel connected, do you?

Hacking:
Picked up the newer issue of 2600 cause I'm dumb and forgot it came out.  Sometimes I get lost in my own little world.  But luckily a friend reminded me!
