I go back for my last semester of high school tomorrow.

[Dilmah G]

My upper body aches like hell. Argh.

[Thaeris]

I was feeling a tad depressed... Then I drank some cola.

...I feel better now. 

[Nuke]

i just figured out i need to aquire 36 volts worth of lightweight batteries for my robot.

My upper body aches like hell. Argh.

 
Did I mention take a rest day? Ask at the Gym for advice if this persists. They're in a better position to give it than anyone else including me. It's normal when you're starting out though.

[Dilmah G]

Today IS my rest day.

Yeah, that's probably why, yesterday was my first day, after all. And I don't think attempting to bench 70KG was good for me at all. 

[Colonol Dekker]

Well. Give it a few weeks then it shouldn't be a problem.
 
At least you know how far you can push yourself . .

[lostllama]

Am snowed in, and sipping green tea. Finding it hard to force myself into studying.

Also wondering where my life is going, that is, if it's actually going anywhere whatsoever.

[Snail]

Life goes nowhere.

No Emo posts plox. Lifes one huge RPG with no rules. Limitless, it may be a noir one at the moment but there's no reason why you can't get out there and grind.

There was a song by "The Verve," I believe, that described the unfortunate discourses of normal life.

What was the line? "You're a slave to money and then you die."

This seems to be true for most people, but for an awkward idealist such as myself, the objetive is to find a means of breaking out of or smashing that said cycle or cycles. Perhaps we should start a secret society?

I am trying to register for class.  In order to do this, i need to communicate with a guy at registration.  this is the only thing blocking me at this time.  

he emailed me back at 9:40 this morning.  I responded immediately.  it is 12:30 pm and he has yet to reply.  

classes start tomorrow.

i am frustrated.

Nah my post wasn't emo, if it looked that way. I'm quite content with my life going nowhere. It's not like any differences I make to the world will be relevant in a few years. I'd be happy to be a dustman if it pays for the internet and rent.

[Colonol Dekker]

You're only a slave if you let it control you.
 
Just bear in mind, work's only a means to an end. I always live by the mantra, "you work to live, don't live to work" it's not done me badly so far. Make all your spare time count. Other generic motivational lines. . .
 
 
Edit-
 Sorry Snail
Missed that reply. As long as you don't let the little things get you down,
 
To everyone.

[Turambar]

does being filled with impatience and rage count as 'things getting me down' ?

seriously, im gonna go eat a light lunch, and if i dont have a reply when i get back, im going to be quite irritated

[Colonol Dekker]

* Colonol Dekker reads Turumbars title. . . . . .

 
No, that's just normal under the circumstances

[Turambar]

Yep, I'm irritated.

30 minutes until i start driving.

(this is the route, so i was hoping i could avoid driving, but it doesnt look like that's possible  http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=237+release+circle+raleigh+nc+27615&daddr=35.861231,-78.581429+to:9101+Fayetteville+Road,+Raleigh,+NC+27603+(Wake+Technical+Community+College)&hl=en&geocode=FRwnJAIdkPtP-ykRW4ygxFesiTGpRdmLbfDH5A%3B%3BFTv9HwIdnBNP-yETonmEeYw9dimFhfsV04usiTFn9nwheKqjdA&mra=dpe&mrcr=0&mrsp=1&sz=12&via=1&sll=35.815586,-78.573189&sspn=0.15674,0.217323&ie=UTF8&ll=35.768801,-78.584518&spn=0.313664,0.434647&z=11)

why not take the 540 down to the 64, go west until the saunders street, avoiding most of the city driving?

I swapped processors in my desktop from a Pentium E2140 Allendale (previously overclocked from 1.6GHz to 3.2GHz) to a new Pentium E6300 Wolfdale (now overclocked from 2.8GHz to 4.0GHz). The new chip is a good bit faster and should run more efficiently at 4GHz than the Allendale did at 3.2GHz. Besides that, my motherboard's actually not compatible with this particular Wolfdale, but I'm lucky of course that it supports older Wolfdales (some E8000's, E7000's, and E5000's). It runs; I'm missing various options (Virtualization, SpeedStep, proper temperature readings) but it still runs, even now that I am running it at FSB400.

I'm thinking of picking up a Radeon HD 5770. Some games are moody since I only have a HD3850-256 in this PC. Other option/thought is a HD 5750.

Trying to sell a textbook on Amazon.com.

...Then I get to try and find a winning deal on a new textbook for a different class...
