It’s going to be a sad day when Napster shuts down. A very sad day indeed. Thank God for Gnutella. Hopefully by the time Napster dies Gnutella will have the whole bottleneck bandwidth thing worked out. I’ve noticed it’s getting better. I even share files on GnutellaNet or just stay connected (staying connected provides the “glue” to keep the network together).

I’m in a much better mood than I was when I went to bed last night. I’m not sure what exactly put me in that mood. Well, I have an idea. I was posting on an advice forum. It’s something I do from time to time, just to be nice. I have yet to actually get any advice out of it. Well, other than the fact that shower gel is supposed to be really relaxing to use instead of bars of soap.

Omar’s in here now. he’s so amusing.

I saw Omar and Luke in Durham today. It was good to see them. It was good times. Good times! Good times! Omar was whining about this English paper he had to do. I felt sorry for him, but at the same time, I was thinking, “Go live last week for me, and I’ll write your paper.”

My French exam went better than predicted. I didn’t know the answer to one of the questions. The rest seemed very derivable since it was an essay test. And I did alright on my calculus midterm (one question off from a B). This is a happy week. I have decreed it.

Somtimes helping people is just so draining. I don’t mean to complain, because if I didn’t want to help people, I wouldn’t tell them that I was willing. I’m definately willing, but sometimes hearing other people’s problems makes me realize that their problems are the same as the ones that I have. Of course I’m aware of the problems that I have, but sometimes I’m not aware how similar they are to someone else’s until I step back and think about what the person is actually saying. You’d think that it would help me help myself, but it rarely does. I feel a little drained tonight, so I think I’m going to go to bed and hope I feel better in the morning.
