And I totally killed it. I had all the information at my fingertips and on my paperwork that they needed, and I was able to show a large rate of growth in the area of concern. Everyone looked very relieved and pleased, and shook my hand.
I'm a rock star.
Me, too! Dang, that's crazy.Quote:

I got the Samsung Galaxy S, which runs on Android.
It'll be in tomorrow.
Last week I had perhaps my third lucid dreaming experience ever. Pretty exciting, but it didn't last very long. I realized I was dreaming when I realized I was looking at the Amazon river from my apartment window. "HEY!! There's no river outside my apartment!!" Suddenly, I was lucid.
Yesterday I found an IamA post on Reddit from a lucid dreamer. I took it as a sign that I should persue this.
I've begun a journey to learn how to lucid dream. One of the major steps is keeping a dream journal and writing down your dreams as soon as you wake. My dream last night wasn't nearly as strange as some I've remembered, but it was ... funny ... ? I was on the literal train to Lucid Town, but the train driver was sick, so we never left the station. Heh.
That's interesting Spun. I'd imagine this sort of thing takes years to master.
Out of the women sports athletes that people claim are hot, how come no one ever talks about Hope Solo, who is actually hot?

Well I am outta here. Got 2 days left to study so I might not be back on before Saturday, the day of my final. Then I am taking a week vacation and staying at the Cape.
So if all goes well I should be back on the 18th (unless the house I'm renting has the internet... in that case nothing will probably change). Take care everyone.
According to various resources, usually a month or two.Quote:

I'm at my girlfriend's, in Novi Sad, Serbia. Got my VIP bracelet for the EXIT Music Festival today, and I'm prepared for four days of awesomeness: Arcade Fire, Pulp, Jamiroquai, Portishead, Nick Cave, Grinderman, Editors, M.I.A, House of Pain, Bad Religion, Santigold, Kreator, Beirut, Hadouken!...
I'm sitting in the sweltering heat and trying to fathom why people spend so much of the year yearning for days like this. They must enjoy sweaty crotch more than I do.

When it comes to work I prefer to be cool. I sweat a lot to begin with - add sweltering heat to that, and I can easily drink 4-5 litres of water in a work day and not go pee once.
I also MUCH prefer being all-out cold to sleep.
When you're cold you can always warm up with extra blankets, or putting PJ's on to sleep in.
If it's too hot, and you're already lying naked on top of your sheets, there's fuck-all you can to do cool off.
Yeah, but cars slip on ice. They don't do anything in sweltering heat except make you cranky.
The only positive on days like today is sitting outside around dusk with a beer, otherwise you can keep your summer. Give me Oregon the other 9-10 months of the year.Quote:
