    I work 7.5 hours a day but the actual amount of work I do = 2.5 - 4 hours so I am very bored.

    Any suggestions for things I could do or websites to look at? I could work on some of my college assignments but I am too lazy to do that!

    @ Laiwethel - You are starting assignments two whole days before they are due? Bah, my university roommates normally started around 11:00 PM the night before. Of course they were computer science students who didn't seem to care how poor their marks were as long as they actually managed to pass the course. ;)

    I am seriously beginning to consider shifting courses. Right now, I'm an Economics major by choice. We're having our first Microeconomic long exam tomorrow (under arguably the toughest teacher in the university :eek: ) and I don't understand anything :confused:

    I'm really bad in math and calculus in particular so I'm really messing up with the Lagrangian Multiplier and all the other stuff :mad:

    @ Enagonios - from what I have seen (I minored in economics) the further you get into economics the more math/calculus dependent it becomes.

    The mathematics for economics course that I took in second year was a real shocker for everyone who didn't have a good aptitude for math. Fortunatly for me I was one of the top math students back in high school so I was able to handle it but a lot of people ended up failing that course.

    I was supposed to have one semester of economics in the social science part of my teachers degree but after two weeks me and a friend quit the class due to it being solely math. Math we had no chance of grasping as we completely lacked the knowledge needed to begin to understand the math used during the course. Seeing as it was the university who had accepted us to the course, with our lack of math skills openly stated in our grades, they supplied us with "dumbed down" economics without the math. We switched our one semester of economics to half a semester of business law and half a semester of economics without stupid math and I am way better off this way.

    @Ara: I'm so sorry for you Ara. I know how it feels to be computerless. I once (barely) survived for 5 months without my computer and had no friend with a computer! I feel for you.

    /me gives Ara some flowers with spiderwebs to cheer her up ;)

    Well, I have finalized things with my travel agent and as it turns out I will only be spending ten days in Greece instead of the 18 that I had originally planned. That is because I will be spending the other eight days in Egypt. :)

    I hate winter. Now I fully understand the canadians. I had shovel the snow which was in front of the building I live in, and the snow was only about 4 inches deep. I don't want to imagine what the canadiens (and other unlucky people) have to go through. And now that the city is semi-clear of snow, it's full of ice. I managed to fall again(Kelvon knows the incident) just like in a comedy movie. I actually cracked the ice where my head hit, my own poor head was intact but it hurt like hell.

    Also I managed to post half of chapter 3 in the CS here. I hate not having time to write.

    @Ara hope you get Jen back soon.

    Wow, I'm working on three hours of sleep, and am currently bouncing off the walls. :banana: Usually when I'm this tired I get really lethargic and in an absolutely foul mood.

    And, before you ask, yes, I have had a ton of caffeine to get me through this long and painful day. :roll:

    I can't believe it - they want $30 for the DVD of Jesus Christ: Vampire Hunter. :eek: Do they really expect someone to pay that much for an extra cheasy B film about Jesus and a Mexican masked wrestler teaming up to fight vampires?

    Naturally the video stores around here do not have any copies. :(

    Don't you just hate it when you look and look and look for the perfect color of lip gloss and buy some that you think are good but aren't and then finally find one that works pretty well even if it's not quite perfect but you can live with it anyway especially if you blend with a little of another color or wear it over a certain lipstick...

    only to find that the just-right color was hiding in the bottom of your makeup basket all along?!

    I saw creatures that kissed in cold mirrors. I saw the face of the friendly stranger looking at me from the sky. There where heavy metal insect walking through the razorblade fields looking for food and shelter.

    Then there was that blig bag car whispering my name, as I moved towards me it bids me entrance. You will never believe the things that happened inside the car, and I will surely not tell you, but by now I know that there indeed is one ring to rule them all...
