Observations of a Slightly Sane Person

1. Talk to someone you haven’t spoken in a long time.


For instance this dude who I can't really remember.

You know the feeling: “Hey some guy/gal just signed on. Hmm who was that anyway? What’s he/she doing in my MSN list? Mentally ignore.”

Just, you know, instead of doing that, actually talk to the person this time. Find out why you added him to your list. You must have had something in common. Come on, it’ll be fun! Like finding hidden treasure in the attic! Except with people!

2. Read a book you haven’t read in ages or play a game you haven’t touched in a while.


I'm not a book type person.

Make sure you pick something that you haven’t touched in quite a while, for the correct dose of nostalgia. Did you know that a shortage of nostalgia is a prime cause of death amongst older people? It’s true, I read it on the Internet.

3. Make a playlist with a mood.


This one is called "Cafeine.m3u"

First, pick a mood. Is it a playlist you want to play while you’re working? When you come home from a long day? When it’s 7 AM, rain is pouring down, your bike has given up the will to bike and you missed your train? Painstakingly go over every song in your library. Make a bunch of playlists. It’s a bit of work, but it pays off.

Sup.

Turns out there’s a new season of the IT Crowd AND Screenwipe! Liek omg! The GF think they’re both boring as hell, but she’s a girl. And we all know they have cooties and stuff.

Granted, the IT Crowd can be extremely dull at times. And it can be absolu-fucking hilarious.

“Wait, wait, wait. There are Elders of the Internet? And they KNOW me?”

That’s so lame and yet so awesome at the same time! Brilliant.

Screenwipe is Charlie Brooker’s “Charlie Brooker’s Screenwipe” (by Charlie Brooker) and it explores the wonders of television. I spend waaaaaay too much time on Reddit (there are days when I don’t do much else) so I catch most of the references, but it’s good even if you don’t.

Oh yeah and I guess I’m doing C++ but blah blah blah.

Let’s talk about that later.
