    Things I did today:

    Woke up at 0900, but decided to sleep a little longer, and then suddenly it was noon. Stays in bed for a couple of hours, finishing Mark of Damnation from Black Library and watching the first American Pie movie. Play a little NWN before going to the gym and exercising for about an hour. Go home and eat, before going to a lokal cafe to play some pool with one of my friends. That lasts about an hour, and then I'm back home in front of the computer, just passing time before going to bed.

    Yup, just another exiting day in my life! :)

    Well Shura, I don't know if this will hope but perhaps you can direct this through will-power, and as you have spoken elsewhere, the strength in your arm, the keenness of your intellect, that with strong focus upon something, and the mental and physical faculty to carry it through, that great deeds can be achieved.

    Or you can turn it around, and say it is only ignorance that gets things accomplished- for if one does not know they should not be able to do something, and the dangers involved, what is to stop them doing it?

    I usually confuse Homer's Sagas with each other, so am having trouble remembering details- any number of things can be a cause for tenacity, but which of these is heroic?

    Heh. I'll get the essay done, never fear. I'm already a quarter way through and it isn't due until 3 weeks later.

    You might try this approach...once I had to write an essay on the bravery of the protangonist in Melville's "Moby Dick". I launched into a bitingly satirical diatribe about how the only bravery shown was mine...as a reader of such a dated, dry, pointless work of overstuffed fiction. I went on for about 3000 words! I got an "A" if I remember, but then again I also had some "pictures" of the prof. :evil:

    That was truly brilliant!

    Of course, with the appropriate 'pictures' one can do anything! :evil:

    In the years that I have enjoyed on the fickled orb, I have found that photographic proof is near invincible. :D

    School? what is this thing you speak of? School? I seem to remember some vague recollections.... something involving lectures, coming late... Ah yes, school. I tried it once- didn't much care for it :p

    Do you seriously go on holidays in two days? That's rediculous. I go on the 28th November. And then its off to Powderfinger on the 30th. To reiterate, I rock. Know this, and be judged!

    Queens of the Stone Age are coming with The Distillers in January, if they can get a venue. Placebo are also rumoured to be playing in summer.

    I have so many bands to see, so little time.

    I feel your pain Rotku, truly I do. :D May I suggest start your own school? Perhaps then you may dictate the time-lines to your own whimsy? :)

    2600 words? Ouch.

    I have written 13012 words of my NaNo since October started. Go me.

    Did not sleep last night. Wrote instead, something like 5000 words or so.

    Now, dead.

    Going to see Revolutions... go me!

    Rambling. Bah.
