Bip and click

I thought I'd say a few words about music today.

I have 0 mp3-files on my computer. Wait, that's not entirely correct, let me rephrase. I have very few mp3-files on my computer that I ever listen to. I am since a while ago entirely devoted to webradio. Free, fast and you never really know what you're gonna get. The sites I use are Kohina, glorious bitpop and oldschool music; Digitally Imported, all kinds of electronic music, dance, chill or otherwise, something for everyone, and finally the Swedish Radio, which features many good music shows, especially late at night. It's also generally chill to listen to. Ocationally I go to some webradio-collection site and select a jazz channel or something, just to get some variation. But it doesn't last long.

I know people who has got so many mp3-files on theis disks they need support columns to prevent their harddisks from falling through the bottom of the computer case. They're that heavy. And so when I buy my own computer (another day of joy to look forward to) I'm going to keep minimizing the amount of mp3s, unless I buy some seriously large hdd:s, which I probably will... But I shall try to stay clean! It's a tough fight to fight on you own, but I will make it! I shall repent!

Merry!

The lan was good. I survived. Nuff said about that.

You might have noticed the new link buttons to the right. I think they turned out quite alright.

Christmas is tomorrow. I can't believe it. Where did all the waiting and anticipation go? Now don't act like some dull adult and go all "that's what happens when you get older", cause I do not want it to be like this. It spoils the whole month. So very many thing makes me wish I could be a little child again. A child in the summertime. Or even an adult in the summer. I wrote last spring that the previous winter had been the worst in my life. I think I'm about to experience something slightly worse in two weeks...

But let's not talk about stuff like that. This is the season of joy, isn't it?

Isn't it?

Hey?

screens and games

I'm a bit tired actually... And Iv'e been drinking quite a lot of cider and eaten a fair amount of junk food, and so I don't feel that great really. But it's nice to be here still. Played WoW since I got here. Downloaded Stubbs the Zombie, but the crappy game wouldn't work. Hmpf. I think I'll get back to leveling now... only 1 lvl left before I can use my latest spellbook.

Always something to look forward to.

Short notice

So this friend of mine calls me.
-There is a LAN-party coming up!
-Alright! I think.
-It's in a couple of hours.
-Oh... Well... I'll do it anyway!
-Sry my bad, it's in one hour.
-Holy... Well to hell with sense! I'll join in!

And so there is a guy coming to pick me up momentarily. His name is Damir Mahmutovic fyi.

Ah, it's going to be such an enormous joy to be at a lan again. I've really missed it. When I get my own place, my own life and my own computer I will be a frequent visitor of dreamhack, the worlds largest lan-party ever. Only been there once, but believe me, it's worth the money! The best thing about it is not the games. It's not the file sharing or the pron. It's not the competitions or even the general (and much lovable) mood. And it's not the people either. The great and wondrous thing about dreamhack, or any lan for that matter, is sitting on a chair for days and days, not doing anything relevant what so ever. A true rest for the mind.

Chrustmas time

Aah, finally at home again. Just spent a week in the field, in the rain, in the mud and in the cold. I actually thought the nights would be worse... but it was pretty cozy to sleep in a warm tent. Unfortunately I had to get up several times during the night in order to stand sentry or fuel the fire. Sleeping is not to be expected. Especially not if almost 10 people have called in sick so that everything takes more time, and needs more work. Like setting up a camp in the dark. The damned darkness. Clearly a worse problem than the cold.

But now it's only a week left before CHRISTMAS! Yahooo! And then it's only three months left... and then... freedom.

Hey, ain't I fancy?

Fieldman

My medic training is complete. From now on I'll be out in the field with the rest of the grunts and goons freezing my ass off, and hopefully spending pretty much time in the car. I suspect I'll be sleeping in a tent though... the car will be difficult to keep warm during the nights. The nights... they sure will be cold.

But only two more weeks until chrismas holiday. Three weeks of lovely tasklessness. W00t!
