Move along, nothing to read

You are a very sensitive person and you try hard - (perhaps a little too hard) - to make favourable impressions and to be recognised by your peers... But you have that inherent need to feel appreciated and admired. You are easily hurt if all of your endeavours go by unappreciated or not acknowledged. stop trying so hard.

You like the better things in life. You are sensuous and emotional. You are a follower of the Arts ... and you seek an environment that will give you the fulfilment to the senses that you need.

You are feeling under considerable pressure and you are being forced to make concessions. You are not particularly happy with this state of affairs but you feel that you have no alternative. If you were to force issues you would be left out or completely ignored by one and all ...

Having experienced considerable disappointment of late and not knowing quite what to do about it this has led you to suffer a great deal of agitation and anxiety.You are trying very hard to make favourable impressions all round. You feel that you have a right to do anything that you wish without being condemned for your beliefs. Everything seems to be going against you and you feel helpless to change the situation. The possibility of failure is most upsetting and this situation is leading to untold stress ... You honestly believe that the situation is not of your making - it is not your fault. You have been misled and abused by those that you trusted. But you are trying to look at the situation quite dispassionately. Would you perhaps not agree that this situation could be regarded as unrealistic self justification?.

Overwork ... be it mental stress ... or physical strain, you are completely worn out and this depleted vitality has created an intolerance for any further stimulation. You feel disappointed with your obvious lack of energy and powerless to do anything about it.You are angry with yourself and this frustration shows. You are contradictory and argumentative and feel helpless to change the situation at this time. Take a break ... even if it is only for a few days ... allow yourself to breath ... to unwind ... You'll feel much better for it... Then trust and let go.

Yay! Snow! Marissa brought her computer here around 6pm last evening, for me to fix it, but later in the evening, it was snowing so hard, that my mother said she was going to stay the night. While I was working on her computer till about 4am, she and I were watching AMV's together ;-).

We had thought that she could go back up to SFU around 10am this morning, but there was way too much snow and the SFU current conditions page said "BC Transit is not running".

Now we are both using our respective computers and doing homework. I have my essays due this evening, and she has an essay due on Thursday.

I had a good sleep again today. I went to bed at 5am, and woke up at 2pm 8-)

I copied some karoke VCD's for Yvonne's mother yesterday, and I got some nice chocolates for my troubles today :-).

*mmmm chocolate*

I shovelled snow outside a short while ago, about 6cm of it on the ground down here. There is probably a lot more up at SFU, so I might see about going up there tommorow.

Just hearing this song reminds me of something.

In my NMI class the other day, part of the presentation was the music video to another song by this group, "Cowgirl". That song was used in Hackers, and this one is used in Trainspotting.

The music video was nothing like anything I had ever seen before. There are very few actual camera images, it is almost entirely of psychelic strobing backgrounds with text manipulated and appearing in many ways. Most of the time, when a new scene comes up, the text displayed syncs with the words, but after a while it mutates, and something said before, or new shows up instead. Then you think you actually hear other things in the audio besides what they are saying. It is really weird. I want to get the music video of this song to see it too!

I just wrote the usual math quiz. Nothing to it as per normal. A few basic matrix operations first (addition, subtraction, scalar multiplication, matrix multiplication). Then solve by inversion, and a fit the data points.

It is a japanese music video, but it has a very touching and sad story in it, about japanese culture and honour.
