 I used to be pretty good about being productive on the weekends. Not so this weekend. It would've almost been better if I'd managed to buy the first season of BSG because then I wouldn't have spent so much time just randomly channel surfing and discovering all the Stargate that was on, and A-Team. Oh god, my life is run by science fiction and bad 80s action comedies.

So in other words, I have ten, actually make that eleven, chapters of Genji to still read. I will be so glad when this book is over. First off, sense of accomplishment. Second, I won't have to read it again... for a while.

Also, I spent a good hour last night looking up grad school stuff. Which is funny, because of all my friends, I'm probably one of the few who hasn't decided either way. Both academia and the real world drive me crazy, but we'll see. But this debate has been brought to the forefront of my mind for two reasons- one of them being that we learned the word for "life goal" or something quite similar in meaning to that in Japanese (ikigai)- and the sentence that went with it was "There are many people with a life goal of a job." That's more or less the literal translation, since I can't give you all the connotations that "shigoto" (job) seems to have.

So yeah... at least PS3 isn't making me want to reconsider too much. Turns out the 'research design paper' really is just that. You just make a design for research- you don't actually go out and do it. Which means I have to readjust my approach to it. Oh well, going to office hours anyway come tomorrow.

Oh, and I have next semester's schedule figured out.

Okay, enough dawdeling. I kind of loathe (okay, really dislike) my work ethic right now.

I didn't really like Genji either.

Did you have to read the whole damn thing too- and for what class?
