I skipped discrete math recitation again this morning. It was just way too early. I need to get to bed earlier, but I had a good excuse last night. Josh had to come in and type that outline. Unfortunately, Josh doesn’t know how to work with the lights off so that I can sleep, and he doesn’t know how to run normal word processing software, so I had to teach him how to create an outline in OpenOffice.org Writer, a task which I had never done myself. It turned out to be really easy, and I kind of like the outlining better than Microsoft Word’s. It’s more logical if you ask me.

Physics was boring this morning, which is not usually the case for lecture. I just really didn’t care about anything he had to say.

In other good news, Mandrake Linux now recognizes that my CD burner can burn CDs faster than double speed. No software (including Windows programs) has ever noticed that since I bought the computer. I’m not up to quadrouple speed burning, which is an all-time high! I’m excited for some reason, even though I don’t actually burn many CDs. I still have the spindle of 100 that my parents bought me two years ago. It’s about half gone now, thanks to the brothers wanting copies of CDs. I don’t mind, though. I just use my minidiscs, and that makes me happy. Speaking of CDs, though, I need to make Andrew a Yasunori Mitsuda CD bundled with some Nobuo Uematsu MP3s. I have for too many Uematsu songs to get onto one disc.

The agenda for today is to eat lunch, go to discrete math and speech, afterwards do physics, and maybe even work on discrete math homework before supplimental instruction for physics at eight. All of this with Esperanto flash cards every hour, because I’m going to do another lesson tomorrow evening. Wednesday is my extreme productivity day.

I had my meeting with my advisor today. Rather, I had my meeting with the advisor that’s not actually my advisor but the one that I like better. It looks like I’ll take physics, principles of programming languages, philosphy of technology, and children’s literature this spring. I’me excited to see what principles of programming lanugages is, but I dread it since I need discrete math to get into it. We’ll see, I guess. She also suggests that I take physics 302 next spring. I guess it’s a concept course that’s really easy. One year they read poems about physics. Heh.

Other than physics homework and checking out a book about Esperanto from the library, the rest of my day was quite boring. Josh is coming in soon to experience the UNIX and OpenOffice.org goodness in order to type a speech outline. Hooray for him.
