Okay, I haven’t posted recently because I have a lot on my mind. I am posting this in a small break between homework. I have about 3 pages of written work to do. After that, I have 26 pages of written work and 3 pages of typed work tomorrow. I have 3 exams tomorrow, and another 3 on Friday.

I have just lost a piece of food on the desk that is my bed.

I am looking forward to the weekend.

Then Tuesday I have surgery scheduled. The good news is that the Hospital has a wireless network, so I can bring my laptop to the place while I’m healing. Nice, eh?

Urgh.

Okay, these are pictures from 1 month (!!!) ago. I know, I’m a lazy prick.
More after the jump.

Good news: I bought Ace Combat 6.

Bad news: It was a defective disc and the Xbox 360 will not detect it most of the time. When it does work, the audio is all wonky and won’t load all of the time.

Worse news: Pilonidal Cyst is back. Surgery likely to be done in December.

Annoyance: I have a gauze on my ass that’s soaked in my blood. Damned biopsy.

Promise: I’ll have the money charts out soon, I promise!

End: Done. <3 you JTanczos. :)

Damn, kids today have shitty music. What is this shit? Green Day? My Chemical Romance? Rap!?

I’m okay with that, I guess. To each their own, but I’d know I’d explode from all that bad music. XKCD agrees.

And don’t get me started on their categorization methods. Practically every kid over here has an iPod, so eventually they ask “Can I see the songs on your iPod?”
They then browse through the songs on the All Songs category.
Why? WHY!? I’ve got 1400+ songs on there, and the titles alone won’t tell you shit about the music! Why not go to my meticulously-organized Albums category, or the Artist Category? Heaven forbid they go to Composers and Genres!

Then when I catch a glimpse at their screens, they always seem to play songs with the All Songs category on Shuffle. I don’t get this. Any good artist worth their money will eventually have a song that’s tied in with another to make the album/EP/LP more listenable and have a better mood. I guess they don’t have such stringent criteria. How can they, if they listen to their cheaply-pirated garbage?

About that!
What do you expect from Limewire, really? You download a random-ass song from a random-ass person. The tags are all messed up, the “artist” is spelt wrong, the song is in lower-case letters. I guess they can’t categorize by Artist after all. Not while the same artist has 8 different spellings.

Do these kids not care about order? How the hell are they going to get along in life?

Please, everyone who reads this, do me a favor. Go to your iPod/Zune/whatever, and CATEGORIZE things, for God’s sake! Add some album art, make sure everything is in its right place!
If you don’t have a portable music player, organize your computer and its files! Do a little folder-pushing, a little Ctrl+V and Ctrl+C functions! You’ll be amazed at how it’s easier to find things!

This may have just been OCD on my part, but seriously, organize your life!

Hurgh.

I’m just coming out of a HORRIBLE flu that made me nauseous and headachey (even though I managed to do a Z Radio broadcast somehow) yesterday, and left me in agony for 6 hours today. I finally managed to sleep for an hour or so, and I came back as fresh and firm as a Georgia Peach.

After that, I played a celebratory runthrough of Portal, managing to finish the game TWICE in 3 hours. Needs more levels, I say.

Oh, and I’m hearing the saved stream of my broadcast yesterday. Man, I bumbled through it like a foob.

Might not go to school tomorrow, so that’s bad since I’ll miss a lab (and a hefty bit of markage) and a 1-period-a-week class. That sucks, but I’ll most likely do a broadcast tomorrow.  Urgh.


Okay, I finished this week of school (a four day week) and here are the results:

Statistophile

November 1, 2007

Like lobster, I too am a Statistophile. I love seeing charts and graphs and all sorts of wonky stuff. It helps me learn better when I see an orderly chart or table of any sort. That’s why I love the Periodic Table.

So, this month, I’m making myself a little project. I spend money every week on food and fun things. I’m going to track those spendings to see how much money I burn each month. I shall start it 3 days ago (Monday, October 29) and will stop it at the end of November (Friday, November 30), updating this place every week with a chart. Any weekend expenditures will be logged in the next week.

First update tomorrow! :D

Oh, and the title is still fucked up . >_>
