Programming marathon with parties in between

Fuck fuck fuck and fuckity fuck, it seems I spent last night thinking so much about the stuff I was going to blog about that I totally forgot to write anything in the blog! Very clever of me, especially when I don't remember most of the planned stuff right now anyway. OK, so let's try to remember everything...

First and foremost of all, I got an invitation to join a band. It is about a year since the last time I played in a band, so it came both as a pleasant surprise and a huge headache since most of my hardware wasn't used for that period of time and my skills aren't as mad as they used to be, and they weren't too mad even then. Anyway, I believe I will be able to cope with it... barely. I have three programs to write in the upcoming week - one in Java, one in C++ and one in Python - and they must be finished until Friday. There are no other variants - either they are finished by them or I am dead. Of course, the wonderful part about it is that I have started doing none of them yet.

This brings me to another great thing - the meeting of Lithuanian Formula One fans. OK, I can clearly see some of the people who know me a tad better than average confused. Yes, you remember it right - I absolutely hate Formule One as it is now. Doesn't matter really - I'm there to party and to promote some other racing series as well. However, this also means that I will most probably be absolutely unable to work on the three programs. This leaves me precisely four days and four nights for everything...

And I'll be damned if I don't make it.

RIGHT NOW: I have just spent three (four?) hours playing snooker online with my friend. That was quite fun actually, however, we're both terrible players and have lots and lots of things to improve. Well, if we play it as much as we played today, it might take quite a short time... and I will have even less time for the programs. Argh...

Oh, and yay for my new haircut. People say I look like a human being at last... What a nice way to put it, isn't it? Anyway, I kind of like it.

Snow!!!

First and foremost, yay for the first snow this autumn! Since all autumns in this country are defined by absolute greyness of everything around, except the ground, which more resembles shit colour wise, and this kind of colours make me depressed all the time, I always enjoy the first snow. And the second. And the third. Snow is great. Right now it's still mixed with a lot of water, so it feels yucky, and if there is wind, the overall feeling is terrible, but outside the window it still looks a lot better than the usual grey and shit brown landscape.

Other than that... Well, not much to write about. I promised my coursemate to get a haircut this weekend and blew it, because I had insanely lot of work (I stayed up until 5am on Saturday without spending a single minute on the internet, except for Wikipedia, where I had to look up the info I needed). Hence as of now I have twelve hours fourty five minutes to get the damn haircut, because that's when I will go to the lectures and she will see me having broken my promise... which I, of course, do not want.

RIGHT NOW: It seems it was quite a while since I visited ICanHasCheezburger.Com, hence that's where I'm spending my time right now. Also I'm browsing BoardGameGeek.Com for all the info I can find about Warcraft: the Boardgame and Starcraft: the Boardgame. I have plans to make a boardgaming group of some sort, and I want some cool games for that, and I figured these might bring me some ardent PC gamers. Come on, you have to leave that box of silicon once in a while, don't you?

Hail the new blog!

I know, you can't understand, why I need another blog, when I don't update the old one frequently enough.

Heck, I don't know either. I just thought it would bring more order into everything I do online if I separated my ought-to-be private ideas from the "pile of cool things I dig up in the internet" that the previous blog degenerated into.

I like new layout.

Yes, that's it. No more reasons. If you thought I'd write a long explanation, I'm sorry to disappoint you. If you believe I will update this blog everyday just because it's called "diary". Well... Maybe. If I find enough courage to talk about some things in my life. Don't count on it too much though.

RIGHT NOW: Listening to the discography of Alizee. She has released the first single from her new album. That was a bit of hiatus, I am glad she's back.
