Having A Goal to Progress Towards

I think what I’ve been missing over the last few months is having a goal to aim towards and progress to. I function best and am at my happiest when I have something in front of me, which needs to be achieved. I then find it easy to channel all my energy into achieving this [...]

er verschwindet von meinem klopapier

elberry, der lustig ist, verschwindet jetzt, weil es ihm spass macht, sich einzugraben.
er steht mit einer schaufel. ich lasse ihn selbst schaufeln.

Die eigenen vier Wände

heute mal ein post in deutsch, wobei ihr mir hierbei kleinere vokabulaere und grammatikalische fehler vergeben muesst, da ich kaum in der deutschen sprache schreibe.

Docstoc Invites via ReadWriteWeb

There are 1000 docstoc - invites available via ReadWriteWeb. I’ve just signed up. While I don’t really use social networks or indeed professional networks much, it looks like this one might be useful and not just for ’socialising’ (socialising WTF!):

Anyway, Mac is back, and this post here is in fact written from my Mac. My BF installed all sorts of [...]

so you see the wall you can already see [...]

After sleeping 12 hours last night (!), I’m now back to my normal, productive self. Today I gave my blog name to the guy I met at the party via email and I asked for his ‘myspace’ in return. Haven’t heard from him yet
I also started writing down some character profiles of people [...]

Narrative and Blogs, or, What’s the Bloody Point? Part 3

At last, the final part (3/3). Before I start though, just a few preliminary remarks.
