job promotion? yes good response from former professor(s) about a letter for recommendation? yes possible position as a research assistant opening up moment by moment? oh yeah baby all i need to do is get my ass in gear and actually do my homework. i am honestly excited about the job promotion for two reasons: a, it is the first one i have gotten in my life, and i know i have almost been given a p... » Continue Reading
i finally rebelted the goddam walkman. i have had a sony wm-f701C for six or seven years now but always been too intimidated to rebelt it. i finally bought the belt the other day as i had just bought a tape of a record i also bought as a vinyl and as a cd. i have a tape deck in my living room, but also a pickup; and i use the pickup a lot more often anyway. plus, the cd was going in my car anyway.... » Continue Reading
not going my way, it seems... firstly, i had a couple skateboarding blunders on my way to and from class; in class i made a couple tiny mistakes in my code that are so obvious. next, to copy/past today's bulletin: gassed up, all i had only was my key and my wallet. went to unlock my car. would not. reseated the battery. nil. my physical key has not worked in years for whatever reason. fuck. check ... » Continue Reading
so i made the mistake of trying to read "the genealogy of ethics", which i was planning to read before spinoza's "ethics", before "beyond good and evil". but now that is being corrected, and i am reading that now. it is a greek translation by Ζήσης Σαρίκας - Zisis Sarikas (accent marks are possibly wrong- uncommon surname and the book has his name in all caps so sue me whatever). here some of my n... » Continue Reading
ως εργένης, κάνω μόνο ότι μου φτιάχνει το κέφι δεν έχω κάποιον ανώ μου να μου γκρινιάζει για το πως ζω δεν έχω κάποιον υπό μου να μου γκρινιάζει να τον ταΐσω ή, τουλάχιστον, αυτοί που μου γκρινιάζουν και τα θέματα που μου αναφέρνουν δε μου έχουν τη παραμικρή σημασία αφού δεν υπάρχει πραγμα » Continue Reading
the book Του Λύκου - The Wolf's by Katerina Nikolaou is a book with much about it. i certainly cannot do it justice, you need to read it for yourself, but then again there is no translation from greek. but translating would not do it justice either; not in a fluid way like it is presently. so here we are, i suppose... for some context: the book follows one Ρεντ - Red. she is deeply in love with a ... » Continue Reading
so so late today... didn't even show up friday. came in today an hour late. professor is on about logical operators. head in my laptop(s) again. i finished a book last night. will write a synopsis soon, particularly for scientist_axolotl. i went to bed at a reasonable time for once, but i fooled myself when i opened a book. i blame that for not being able to lift myself out of bed until thirty min... » Continue Reading
haven't been on time to this class yet robbing me of my morning sleep. truly rude of this class. i almost feel bad for being here. both this and my prior class with this professor. i just show up and am a warm body. i cannot care to interact unless called upon.... which happens too often. i don't know what he expects, he knows i am in the later stages of a similar degree, so i must already know th... » Continue Reading
have an eight a.m. class now, for this month. i wonder how often i will be late, already was late today for the first day. will last until midday every day. terrible. but, in many respects, the workload is lighter now, so it balances out. fUCK... need to use proctorio, i just found out. proctorio is BAD. FUCK proctorio. honestly, terrible thing. also on account that i have many tabs open and proct... » Continue Reading
not listening to something i created for a while and then checking it out again is the best thing for my ego. as i work on stuff and get to know it all so well i get so used to it, it becomes so mundane. i like it, but it becomes trite. and then i listen to it some months later, some years later, and WHOO. i bump hard with it and then i remember YO THAT'S ME, I MADE THAT, I THOUGHT OF THAT!!! and ... » Continue Reading
and not in the sense that japanese is hard to translate because it is a context-based language (far as i can understand), no, just pulling out words from websites to then put into Google Translate is impossible. yeah, no, i don't speak a lick of japanese, nor can i read or understand the slightest bit of it. but there is this album from the band eastern youth that i quite like and i wanted to find... » Continue Reading
just completed my main concern that i have had the past two weeks- the first project and exam for my network analysis class. but now? it is all over. until a week from now when i have to do another exam :/:/ i must say though, i am really proud of the work i managed for these. a) because i feel like a typist god what with my rapid ability to spawn symbols & things and alter the formatting using on... » Continue Reading
