Ad Mundo Exteriore,

Am officially a day behind schedule thanks to Naruto, Chrno Crusade, some half-a-dozen random manga, and Full Metal Alchemist. Yes, watched all thirteen episodes out on fansub today. But really, I couldn't help myself. When at least two of the fanfic writers on my friends list write for a series, I have to know what it's originally about before clawing my eyes out with curiosity. Uh...maybe not the most appropriate image there, but I actually do tend to poke my fingers into my forehead when I'm curious about something. >_> Also hunting around for Peacemaker Kurogane and Azumanga Daioh. Hopefully, I won't find them before reading period is over.

Anyway, tomorrow, I plan to pack my books and hole myself up in Widener somewhere. I thought about going to Lamont, but I have a feeling that it's going to be packed. Besides, I need to be in a grand place in order to think suitably grand thoughts about Augustus and his Golden Age. The topic is becoming more and more cohesive as I try to explain it to people. ^_^ I think I know what I need to do now.

I just downloaded this nifty computer notecard and bibliography program called Scholar's Aid. You can get the Lite version (which is free) on Cnet. You can label your notes as quotations, summaries, original ideas, or glossary. Plus, you can add hyperlinks to connect all your notecards together as well as link it with the appropriate source. Hurrah, an ultimate notecard program! (Well, the interface is a bit clunky and not the easiest to figure out, but that's what you get for using freeware.) I'm going to write my notes on index cards of course, but I'm going to transfer them all onto Scholar's Aid when I get back to my room and do some major brainstorming/organizing/outlining. Yes! I think I'll be ready to tackle this paper! (Somewhat surprising, considering I'm currently exhausted with recompiling the final HGDRP paper.)

I should also put all those review sessions and office hours onto my reading period schedule (the one that I'm a day behind on). Hm...tomorrow morning. Should go to sleep now if I want to wake up at eight o' clock.

About the library, that reminds me of how some people just live in the library. Teachers as well as students. People who worked in the library would go there early morning, and there would be people exiting the library...

O.o

I woke up too late to live up to my resolution of spending the entire day in the library. ::sighs::

The libraries are open 24 hours a day right now, so I could possibly spend an all-nighter there tonight to make up for it. The question is do I actually want to?

Hm...no. Oh well. I should start working now.

Um...I don't know Japanese. What's "totemo" and "utsukushii"?

And sorry about the LJ. It makes the library computers commit harakiri too. >_< Heh. I'll probably change it to...something that is equally lethal to computers, but oh well.

Ah, sumimasen. totemo means very, and utsukushii means beautiful (usually applied to women, or v. gay men...hah!)

something that is equally lethal to computers

Your evilness knows now bounds...

I'm a huge fan of notecards. They're a pain to prepare but once you start writing, outlining and quoting is a cinch. Well, at least for me. ^_^;;
