6 Easy Pieces

Life outside uni has been very slack even though there are quite a number of things for me to do. With next week being the start of the second semester, I really really want to be back in uni. Perhaps I'll try and sneak into a couple of lectures because unlike most people I know, I prefer to be sheltered in the confines of academic life than the complexities of working and making money. Basically, I need someone to tell me what to do and say I'll earn assignment marks for it. Almost like a game. In some strange way.

Recently been reacquainted with Disney animated movies and while it has been nostalgic it also further reinforces the fact that Disney still gives unreasonable expectations of love. One that has been blindingly obvious in a lot of these movies is the aspect of love at first sight and they are everywhere. But one that took me this long to realize is that there is a ridiculous amount of flirting as well. If you don't exclaim "Damn you Disney!" I don't know what will. Vote of no confidence for yours truly.

I am starting to get really annoyed with the whole Games for Windows Live thing. Recently bought Bioshock 2 and gameplay plus storyline has been great so far. Played for a few hours until I realized that I cannot save the game because in order for me to save the game I need to have a profile and connected to the internet. This is not an online multiplayer game (largely) so why do I need to be connected? And so because of that I just lost hours of gameplay. The worst part? The Live component needs to be updated but so far the update process has been unsuccessful so far. And it discontinued riiiiigggghhhhttt at the last moment before download is completed.

A friend and I have been updating each other whenever a friend of ours became engaged. Because the number of engagement announcements on both our Facebook accounts are starting to get pretty unreal. And it has been unreal for the past year or so. I'm at the age where these sorts of things are fairly common but my friend had it pretty early for her age. This means that soon people (other than my rather nosy mother's-side-relatives) will start poking me about when is it my turn. I'm running out of "*points* Isn't this the best <insert item> you've ever seen? Omg." excuses already. Heck I've even got one poke recently (yes, I'm looking at you, E) and so these sorts of poking might start to gather momentum to other people.

I think I'm a very boring person. Discuss.

Feel like I need to do more physics on the side. Quantum mechanics books to spare, anyone?
