Oh, my.

[silveradept]

I'd better hope my delegation skills are up to par, because my brain is going to have to multitask itself into oblivion this semester. Plus, I don't know how well I did on Friday's exam, but I know it wasn't perfect. Hopefully it wasn't horrible, either.

Oh, well. So why do I keep having this urge to write fictions that won't help me at all with my schoolwork? Daydreaming of sorts, or just my brain not fully comprehending to panic it should be in by now?

Added the Calvin and Hobbes feed to my friends list. I liked that cartoon when it ran, and so I'll just be content with the reruns.

Tomorrow we're gonna take our group picture. Hopefully that means another day that I don't have to risk bothering my knee on the uneven ground out on the reserve field. Perhaps tomorrow I will have a little time to look over the musical selections again, Perhaps I will also listen to the midi files, horrible that they are, to help put my part in context, even if I may have to cram the drill in there as the afterthought. I really need to make block next week. Three weeks in reserves would not be fun. So I suppose the staff gets what they want - more effort out of me, but they do it by presenting the negative I want to avoid, rather than a positive that I want to obtain.

Which reminds me that I need to hock suitably long envelopes from work tomorrow to put my recommendation letter requests in, and then from there, I need to get some stamps. Yeah... I really do need to get on those applications, don't I? A couple essais to write saying why I want to subject myself to the master's programs is what I really need. *sigh* I'm not nearly as well-rehearsed at this, simply because I don't have quite as many, if any, good phrases to use when describing myself that don't sound too ornate or too rough. Too used to downplaying myself, I guess.

What follows is not some sort of comment-whoring grab for attention - it's a serious question. Am I boring when I scribble down in this journal? Not that any responses will likely change my style or attitude, but I genuinely wonder if I'm just taking up internet space boring everyone with the things that I put out on it.

Seriously, no.

Although it could be argued that I'm not one who should, or even could, answer that given my view of the world. But FWIW, I don't think your scribblage is boring at all.

And what makes you so unqualified to determine another person's boring rating? After all, you're part of my audience, and so you're able to judge the interest or lack thereof in my postings.

:) Well, look at it this way: how many times have you posted something you thought of as not really serious only for me to reply with a sizable post discussing, quite seriously or not, drawn-out arguments about it? That's what I'm like. I have a bizzare way of looking at reality that lets me find layers of interest in things people don't even normally give a thought to: I don't just hold things up to the light to look at them, I look at the shadow they cast.

I'm not qualified to say what is boring or not because I can find something interesting in virtually anything.

With the exception of all too many TV shows.

;)

Sold. There are days where I operate the way that you do, and others where all there is are TV shows to talk about. But that still doesn't mean you can't say whether I'm boring or not.
