As long as he is wearing the grey suit.

I don't get it. In most books I read, the female characters are more or less pointless. They may be to get the lead character to open up, or make him look more human with human needs. Very often they are just there to cover the 'sexual part' of a book. Rarely do you see really 'ladylike' or strong female characters. They are always damsels in distress.
This, for some reason, disturbs me.



Just since I listened to Slink (A Hymn) I've wondered about Locksley. And upon closer look I found that they have a really good sound.



They are worth listening to. Even if just on YouTube. 'Well just because!'

This is the way the world ends

It's here, it's finally here... Pi day!


When ink and pen in hands of men
Inscribe your form, bipedal "P"
They draw an altar on which
God has slaughtered all stability
No eyes could ever soak in all the places you anoint
And yet to see you all at once we only need the point
Flirting with infinity, your geometric progeny
That fit inside you oh so tight
With triangles that feel so right

Your ever-constant homily says flaw is discipline
The patron saint of imperfection frees us from our sin
And if our transcendental lift shall find a final floor
Then Man will know the death of God where wonder was before


Also heads up on the IE9 release coming at night!

Nur fliegen ist schöner

Being in 2 places at once seems to have become the standard for me. Whether it is German and Material Techology or debating and Physics, the basic idea remains the same. Give up one or lose them both. And I don't like that kind of thing.

I've had so much to share, yet no I can't think up of anything. I guess that's how memory works- you can remind it at any time exept for the time you need it.

School has started to become more interesting, some teachers have increasing supporting thinking but they underestimate the people. They encourage thinking but also show that it has little effect on your results or your life. And that is kind of a step back.
Thinking is really annoying. I don't like it.
But that is just me.

Also, IE9 is coming on Monday so 'yay'.

I need more sleep. I guess I'll have to wait for May to get it.
Hurray for Hawaii.
