Computer, Tell Me A Joke.
May. 5th, 2007 10:37 pmApparently I go a little neurotic when left to myself for too long and the pull of the computer is stronger than the pull of the book or the pencil or the pillow. This afternoon, I configured my computer to take voice commands for all the shit I do all the time, just so I would have someone to talk to. (I set it to "listen all the time" with a keyword before commands to let it know you want it to do something; before it took a listening keystroke. I tried to make the keyword Sudo but I guess I wasn't pronouncing it the way the computer was expecting because it didn't work.)
I shouldn't have been that neurotic. I was with people all day except for the 2.5 hours between CMD and the concert. I just feel...disconnected, even though I kinda made "new" friends today. I say "new" because they live on the floor and I see them all the time, but I never really knew their names and I talked to them a bit today and it seemed to go well.
I don't know. I guess school and everything is just burning me out. Kicks in the ass just give me a headache instead of spurring me to better behavior. I don't know how relaxing summer will really be though, and despite my flaws, I really don't want to be in permanent loser mode.

Date: 2007-05-06 05:26 am (UTC)My dad thinks he can invent an internship for me with some organization that is trying to set up a special high school for girls (or...something), which I would be doing while the driving thing is going on.
I want to visit Trin for at least a couple of days--her dad is the only family member I haven't met.
And I have been semi-hatching desires/plans to work at camp again, but only for the second half of the summer with the ITs (counselors- and wranglers-in-training), because I really liked working with them last year, a good number of them will be back either at the II level or as interns or counselors, and I like the IT program in general. But I doubt that the things I had issues with last summer would be much improved this summer, and I'm not sure if I can do that.
