Family

Just me, mom, dad, and the dog. No siblings.

Sleep Style

My day starts at 6:30am and usually ends around 10pm.

Language Skills

English, Latin, Java, PHP, and basic C++

Works of Literature

I enjoy the Harry Potter series (read 'em each once), the Imponderables series (question-answer format, very interesting), and I follow the story/antics of MegaTokyo as well. And, of course, the 5-part Hitchhiker's Trilogy is the best series ever. ;P

TV Shows

I'm a SciFi fan; Stargate SG-1 (especially before RDA left), Stargate Atlantis, Doctor Who, Heroes, Eureka, Lost; good stuff. I don't care for "reality TV" much.

Anime

I'm obsessed. The Kin of the Stars series was my first, and I love it. Besides that, I really liked Last Exile, Eureka Seven, Read or Die, Azumanga Daioh, FLCL, and of course The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.

Hidden Talents

I can play the piano fairly well, I'm teaching myself to play the guitar, and I can solve a Rubik's Cube in two to four minutes. I'm also an amateur magician, and know a few simple tricks, some of which can be quite profitable.

On Awesomeness, as a Function of Subject [permalink]

Posted on 1 Nov 2008 at 11:25pm PDT

For those of you who didn't know, I figured I should point the following things out:

- Tales of Vesperia is awesome.
- Vector Calculus is not.
- 3.5 hour long night classes suck.
- But not as much as the prospect of having an 8am class.
- Thanksgiving break can never get here soon enough.
- But that test you forgot to study for will be happy to kill some time with you until then.
- Doing homework is merely a matter of convincing yourself that the degree to which it is important is greater than the degree to which you would rather watch paint dry.
- Homework doesn't get done when there is a prospect of taking a nap instead.
- Friends are there to keep you up late and prevent you from doing homework.
- And then wake you up early to drag you off to get food.
- There are dozens of things you need to accomplish in any given day.
- And only 24 hours in that day to not feel like getting out of bed.
- It takes one Friday staying up until 4am and sleeping until 2pm to ruin your schedule.
- And an entire week of waking at 9 to restore it.
- Only to reach another Friday night again anyway.
- Advisers are no more interested in telling you what classes to pick than you are to ask them.
- But they'd be happy to chat and crack some jokes before suggesting some classes anyway.
- When you want to do something, you'll have no time for it.
- Your free time is instead spent putting off things you don't want to do.
- Tales of Vesperia is awesome.
- Staying up until 3:30 in the morning to write something silly like this... not so much.
