My fist sits, waits, it bides its time until the day I meet the engineer that developed my cursed air conditioner. Despite the multitude of modes, levels, and timers built into this monstrocity, then only setting it seems to produce is cold. Extreme cold. Waking up at 4AM because I can't feel my toes cold. Waking up at 6:30 again because my 4AM foray into the world of air conditioning was able to bring pain back into my toes. Anger soon followed.
I suppose the trip back hasn't been the smoothest. Luggage was delayed, my home's 110V circuit is broken (leaving only my fridge, lights, and a cursed AC unit working), and the material is piling up faster than my plate at Mandarin. Hell, even my trusty umbrella has abandoned me. WHY UMBRELLA WHY? I CAN CHANGE! I seem to have left my cap back home, as well as my wristwatch, both of which will be annoying to replace in the time being.
Nonetheless, progress is being made, as the landlord's been called and slowly on his way. Furthermore, the unfortunately early start this morning gave me a whole hour to organize my apartment after my bag finally came in. I was also lucky enough to finish my banking in less than 30 minutes and even pay my rent.
Over the months here, I've noticed a slightly hightened awareness of scheduling, planning, and greatly strengthened memory. Its like my lazy brain finally received a wheelchair, and its rolling around yelling "WEEEEEE! as things get done. I was kind of hoping for a more noticeable change, as I seem to have an everlasting cloudyness to my brain, but at least, for a few minutes a day, its down to a light mist (maybe even a rainbow).
Neurology is....a lot of words. And for each word, there are another 8 words that can alternatively be used to name the location. Each location has some function, and of course this function's limitations change drastically depending on whom you ask. ie "the artery does NOT pass through this hole" vs "well actually the artery DOES pass through the hole". Fuuuuuuuu. Not sure what else to write, I can't really remember anything thats happened in the last 7 hours of lecture. Mental block. by which I mean a wooden block that I beat my head with every night so I can sleep in peace (possibly due to bleeding of the middle meningeal artery).

"DOMLEC YOU %$@^ I AM GOING TO $#!!@ YOU IN THE EYE-SOCKET UNTIL YOU @#$7% IN THE #@$%"
As my observant readers can probably guess, there was still no electricity.
Miss you!!!!! Come back soon. :)
