Me too, I'm browsing it in a mild state of nausea right now (It's either because of the bad combo of redbulls and coffee or because this guy's inability to use punctuation is forcing my eyes to cross)

Still procrastinating: Only half way through my Japanese hw and I still have much reading to do before the night is up.

Lets see.. its about 1:30 and I just realized two seconds ago that this assignment is longer than I thought.

Add to that the lovely distraction that L'Arc-en-ciel music provides....
I'll be checking in here and there until 4am most likely

So, 3 more hours or so for you? That's when I'm hoping to finish the paper. Fantastic. And as for how my work is going, well, I started the first sentence.

I find that I have to write in almost complete silence. Music is too thought-provoking for me, and I cannot think analytically if there is something playing in the background.

Feb 1 2005, 11:37 PM
When I lived at home, the noisy li'l sibs proved too distracting; so I learned to drown them out with music that was both nice, but not such that I would stop concentrating and sing along. (hence my love for bgm from many many soundtracks)

- First sentence! That's the hardest one
Keep going! (I find myself posting between sentences too)

my current thought/crackpot theory:
the amazing similarity between

Hiroyuki Sakai, of Iron Chef fame...
therefore my current crackpot theory is....
Nobuo Uematsu and Hiroyuki Sakai are, in fact, the same person!!!!

It's good. I just don't like all the papers I will have to write and the projects I will have to do. There are listening portions in the tests, and I rely on what little French and Italian I know to pull me through those ones.

We're supposed to be doing all these listenings on our own, but I haven't done any yet.
Though I did purchase an opera on DVD today (see some post in this thread from earlier today).

However, I'm afraid people here wouldn't understand how this church group works... I think the two of us are the only ones here who frequent church, anyhow... they wouldn't understnad the terms "consecration", "dedication", and "devotion"...

Yes, expensive. I bought it anyway. And I read the price tag wrong. It was actually $27.99, and with GST, comes to a total of $29.95. For me, it was practically free, since I used a gift card.

I now have 5 cents left on the gift card. It'll come in handy somewhere, I'm sure.
Not sure if it's worth it. I'm planning on watching tomorrow. We'll find out then.

Random Thought:
It's interesting that when referring to "the classics" - people usually just think of works of Western civilization. However, according to its meaning, it's unfortunate one also doesn't also automatically think of works such as the Confucian Analects, the Tale of Genji, The Art of War. etc.
