How do you feel? (Mood)

[Penny lane]

Happy to have the day off!!

[Mystique]

Scared, writing a quiz today in new croatian literature class.   

[Luth]

HAPPY!!!!! 

[Nighthawk]

Irritated. Band practice canceled yet again because people like making up excuses and avoiding any form of responsibility.

Pleased. The tracks I've been making for a friend's game are coming along nicely.

Worried. Job hunting can be stressful.

Depending on the contemporaneity of the literature you're working on, the answer to every question just might be "Krleža"

Lololo, not that contemporary xD so the answer will probably be Ivan Mažuranić or some other authors that you've probably never heard of -.-

Hey, my education wasn't that bad

<theatrical pose> "Što se gori u bijeli zelenoj? Al je snijeg, al su labudovi? Pobogu, ko ih zapali?" </theatrical pose>

See? I remember everything! Mind you, that's not Mažuranić, but it's got Turks in it. So yay!

(<croatian> Nije da sam odveć pratio na nastavi, no stanovita kolilčina informacija je ostala Praznine sam nadopunio vlastitim istraživanjem. </croatian>)

To paraphrase Mažuranić: Bogom sestro, hrabra Crnogorko

Not saying your education was bad, just saying that, unless you actually study Croatian, you've probably never heard of many authors that we have to know about.
Good Hasanaginica though   
<croatian>Nabacila bih neki stih, ali nažalost, još uvijek sam pod iznimnim utjecajem renesanse i baroka od prošle godine, pa mislim da se sad neki pastiri, vile i kladenci ne bi najbolje uklapali u cijelu priču o Turcima.  

Eventualno:

I seem to understand it, but not very much...

That's a distinct possibility, yeah

Good Hasanaginica though   

Why thank you! Poetry was ever my forté.

The last two lines reminded me of: "Nigdar ni tak bilo da ni nekak bilo, pak ni vezda ne bu da nam nekak ne bu." which brings us full circle

I seem to understand it, but not very much...

Croatian or the Turkish Invasion?

Indeed

I just...died a little bit inside


OT: guilty for wasting my afternoon/evening. Goddamn you, internet!
OT2: sad. I don't want to get up and go to uni. Damn you, internet!
...no hope for me 

[Nighthawk]

<OT>
"Too epic for words" would've also worked

Goddamn you, internet!
Damn you, internet!

Damn, goddamn and a side order of DAAMN!

Okay, I'll stop now.
</OT>

Lazy. I don't want to go to Zagreb. Well, I do, but I don't feel like it. I should and, in a certain respect, I do... but I don't. Daaaamn.
Excited. We should finally start with post-production today. Barring another unexpected technical surprise, of course. Another all-nighter, yay!

[Mystique]

xD now that's embarrassing. Moving on!
British humor is the best nudge, nudge, wink, wink, you know what I mean?

How do I feel? Um, lazy too. Procrastinating. Still haven't started with the syntax.

[The One]

I feel like I might die within the next 4 days.
I have to finish my extended essay (which happens to be more of an essay shortening task rather than an essay writing task now), writing an essay on Shakespeare, reading some stuff on "orientalism" for history, solving physics problems, keeping my mind active with complex differential calculus (which reminds me, I feel like a test on the subject just robbed my soul) and reading another damn gender-oriented text for theory of knowledge.


If I survive though, I'll travel to Jordan, see Petra, float on the dead sea and do the whole Jesus business in Christ's place of baptism.

[Nighthawk]

nudge, nudge, wink, wink, you know what I mean?

Say no more, say no more!

Tired. Fell asleep on the train, which wouldn't have been a problem except I was talking to a friend at the time.

and do the whole Jesus business in Christ's place of baptism.

Just a quick tip: I know hanging from the cross might seem like something to try at least once, but be careful. It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye.

Tired in advance. My biorhythm lacks... rhythm.

Due to a holiday, there was some changes in this week and so we would study tomorrow. But our teacher is going to spend this time somewhere else. Freeeeeeeeeedom!!!!!

[Mystique]

I feel good! I think I did pretty well in syntax; I hate my teacher but I love Wikipedia 

[Nighthawk]

w00t! If Google is Zeus, then Wikipedia is Athena.

We don't need no education, we don't need no thought control?

[Mystique]

w00t! If Google is Zeus, then Wikipedia is Athena.

...and Studomat is Hades 



feeling: hyper. so many movies to watch, so little time

...and Studomat is Hades  

I was, luckily (?), the generation that escaped The Studomat. For all those that don't know what that infernal thing is, a brief explanation:

One glorious day, the Elders of the Zagreb Uni got together beside a burning cauldron.
"But it's not Tuesday," murmured some of them.
"No," the Grand Priest bellowed. "But I was just that bored."
"Well we can't have that," they all thought, nodding their heads.
"So," he continued, "we'll have to deal with my boredom. For my boredom is your boredom. Am I right or am I right?"
"You are right, oh Grand One."
"Damn right. What are we doing to molest our students?" That always seemed to cheer him up.
"Oh, the usual," the Keeper of the Seals muttered. "A bit of bureaucratic chaos here, a bit of contradictory requirements there."
"Excellent, excellent," The Grand Priest chirped. "Anyone have any more creative ideas?"
"Well..."
"Yes? Speak up."
"We could, hypothetically..." It was the Grand Imperial Wizard, a quiet type if there ever was one. "Well... You know. Concoct a digital system of managing their academic responsibilities."
The Grand Priest frowned rather violently.
"But that sounds... useful."
He spat that last word like it was vinegar.
"Ah, yes," the Grand Imperial Wizard continued, "but we make it unusable."
The old Priest's eyes immediately lit up.
"So, instead of streamlining it..." he blurted excitedly. "Genius! Absolute, pure genius!"
"Thank you, sire."
"Yes. Yes! Right this down: Let it henceforth be known that all students must use... What should we call it?"
"May I offer a humble name like "Studomat"? Sire."
"Yes, Grand Imperial Wizard, I like it. Studomat. Let it henceforth be known that all students must use "Studomat" when dealing with matters pertaining to the University, their respective studies, etc. etc."
"So say we all."
"Damn right."

That night, the Grand Priest was so excited he forgot his weekly virgin-blood bath.
Some people are just easy to please.

A thousand apologies for this enormous off-topic, just thought I'd share. Will stop now.

feeling: hyper. so many movies to watch, so little time  

Multitask - watch three movies on three separate screens!

...

Not helping, huh?


Feeling: Tired, yet lazy. Too lazy to go to sleep. :yawns:

[Mystique]

@Nighthawk: So that's the legend of Studomat. I was always wondering about the story behind it. Makes sense.
As for the three screens, I'm sure I'd do it IF I HAD three screens. that would be a time saver.


Ahhh, I'm so tired. I should probably go to sleep, but I'm too lazy to turn off my laptop, unplug it, and take it to my desk. That's a lot of work and it's late
