Gotta Get Out

I don't want to be here. Here as in Western. I have work to do for which I have no heart and if I don't get it done, and get it done well, I will fail the course, I'll be forced to withdraw from school and my parents' money will have been wasted. Not to mention years of my life. I want to find a job somewhere in Europe and forget about university for a while.

Freeing the Web

Made a very interesting discovery this morning: the wireless network that i can access from Conk's apartment on King St is also available to me here on Kent St. That's a fair distance. I'm likin' it. It won't be too long before everybody is able just to buy a network card or whatever (computers are coming with WiFi built in now, aren't they?) and jump from network to network as they travel around the city. I wouldn't mind paying some kind of fee for a national wireless network. Very cool. The purchase of my card is definately feeling less extravagent.

EDIT
Throw rocks and cabbage at me, I'm an idiot.
The network that I get in my house isn't part of any widespread super-network -- it's a home network going by the name of its hardware, just like the one at Conk's apartment...bah! And here I thought I was living the cyber life. Well boourns to that. And boourns to my believing it while I'm tossing the boournes around.

1921, November 11

November the 11th is my Nanna's birthday. Had a nice chat with her. I wish I could have told her that I was coming home soon when she asked.
Happy Birthday Nanna! I love you.

Sea Cucumber

C: "Look, there's the mouth and there's the anus. They're so close to eachother."
K: "Is that a baby?"
C: "No, Kyra. It's a sea cucumber."
K: "Oh."

Yesterday It Snowed

Yesterday was this year's first snow fall and pretty it was.
Today is my first ever personal wireless hookup on campus; I got a wireless card. Yuppy-computer-time at Starbucks here I come.
I'm totally stumped by my Asian Population Development article summary. Son preference in Vietnam is a big and complicated problem; I don't know where to begin writing. So I'm doing this instead.
Oh ho ho, my eyeballs.
