Hey, a post for the 2nd consecutive day. I really am doing this just to get me to spend about half an hour to an hour every day to actually write something of substantial length. At this point I am not even really concerned to write anything meaningful or deeply though provoking (well, actually perhaps all I have ever done was provoke my own thoughts and no one else's).
Well, first things first, today was a great days for research. So was Wednesday, I did get a lot of work done this week and if I carry on in this vein for the next week I should be in good stead for the conference to come.
Bought 3 books today, from the 3 for 2 offer. I got What the Dog Saw by Malcolm Caldwell, Catching the Wolf of Wall Street by Jordan Belfort and Commited by Elizabeth Gilbert. The reason I bought any books at all to be perfectly honest is to get Commited. I read about 20 pages a few weeks back when I was in Borders and quite liked it so I really had to finish it. I read the first Wolf of Wall Street book and it was good, so I decided to get that too. Malcolm Caldwell, I actually read his book so good time as any to branch out and read something new. Though I have several ongoing books now. Reading The Girl Who Played With Fire by Stieg Larsson, Tales of Love and Loss by Knut Hamsun (His stories are very unique), The Good Soldiers by David Finkel and How to Practice: The Way to a Meaningful Life by the Dalai Lama. I have so many lovely books I would love to read. Wish I had more time. But it was good that for the past week, I got a few solid hours of reading time a day, whilst still being productive with research and able to exercise about an hour before work. So the balance is good now, I do not feel fatigued every day like I used to. So I really should tone back on the tutoring next semester. On top of the Swedish lessons I'm doing Monday evenings. Hopefully by next year's end I can read, write and speak quite proper Swedish. And perhaps I can blog in Swedish too!
So as this intermission of seriousness end, I say to you, may the nonsense recommence.
