silva rerum

A being darkly wise, and rudely great

Finally, time to breathe! It’s been quite the rollercoaster ride for the past three weeks, with non-stop assignments, labs, midterms, et cetera. Thankfully, my trusty new Starbucks order (Triple Grande, Extra Hot, No Whip Mocha) has been helping me through the midterms, one by one. I ought to know better than to cram nowadays but…procrastination happens.

I got around to installing Windows 7 and I really like it! People can complain all they want about Microsoft but I think they hit the mark this time, even if it isn’t a bulls-eye. I wasn’t entirely convinced that my life would be changed by their new taskbar (and their new-fangled jump tasks) but I find it quite indispensible now. It only took me a day or two to reinstall everything and set my preferences back. Thank goodness for Mozilla Weave!

I’ve also become a bit of a consumerist now; every time I feel upset, I buy myself something to cheer up. I really should stop that habit; it doesn’t help my back account balance.

I hope I’ll have some interesting adventures in the near future about which I can blog but I somehow doubt it. Is this all it amounts to? I feel slightly embarrassed to seem so mundane to my readers (if there are indeed, any) but I’m quite enthralled by my life, boring or otherwise.
