03/18/2005: "The end is near"

Current Sounds: Angelic Layer - Ame Agari
Currently Feeling: Tired.. going back to bed.

As the week ends, spring break is coming to a close. Monday morning, I have homework to turn in. Tuesday afternoon, I have a test to take and a paper to hand in. Have I started any of these things? Of course not.. but that's not the point. As I look back on the week.. what did I really do with my free time? Not much, I guess. But it seems that's alot of what my life ends up being. Looking back and realizing I could've done so much more. Hindsight, as they say, is 20/20. But I try to not worry about it much. There's nothing I can do now.. what's done is done. I can only work towards a better future.

All told, I'm not terribly upset with what I got done, though. Watched Gatekeepers, backed up a computer I've been meaning to work on, finished a game, played some more of another, got my DS games, met up with someone I haven't seen in months.. that sort of thing. It's just too bad I didn't get more done. I still have nearly three more days, so all's not lost.

I really need to get around to my e-mail. I have 3 (maybe 4) e-mails to reply to, plus I need to write 2 more. I'll get to that before today's over. However, right now I'm going back to bed. Slept about 4.5 hours last night, so I'm going to go watch daytime tv and sleep about about 3 hours (I'll set my alarm). I don't get to do that much.

What else.. what else.. ah, I still need to figure out where/how I'm going to stay in Tokyo. Much fun. Things just.. seem so expensive right now. So.. I need to figure out how long I can afford to stay and where I want to stay. I really don't want to cut my stay in Tokyo short (or simply cut it out entirely).. but I might have to, worst-case scenario. Bleh.. I'll figure it out, I guess.

Also need to decide what to do with my webhost before I leave. I think my hosting package expires in August, so I might have to move or renew before I leave.. or maybe try to do it while I'm away. I'll have to figure that out as well.

Oh, I got my ingrown toenail removed today (yes, I'm sure the world needed to know this) and the acid applied to the root, so I should never have a problem with it again. A bit odd to think that I will never have a toenail again on my right foot.. but really, it's worth it to not have to deal with it. Also strange that I have absolutely no feeling in my toe right now (which is good, because it's extremely painful when the painkillers subside). In some odd way, it's kinda cool.. but I guess I'm easily amused right now.

Anyway, I'm going to go try to sleep. I'll try to write later this weekend. Hopefully I'll get some work done..!
