I'm sitting in a class and I'm pretty bored. Which one are you saying? Don't worry, I'll tell you later. This teacher just goes on and on and I'm pretty tired and don't really wanna hear it to be honest : /
Ok, now on to the class. It's entitled "8th Century Hebrew Prophets". I'm a biblical literature major and so I sit in a lot of these types of classes. Not all are as boring as this one. In fact, I really like this professor, it just seems like today I'm not into it. My favorite biblical literature class was probably one that covered the book of Luke. I can't remember the name of it right now : /
OK so he's talking about who wrote Isaiah 13-23. Some think it was a later editor, some think it was actually Isaiah. Was it originally apart of the prophets message? I DON'T REALLY CARE. I mean, I should, but ask me after 10 and then I might care. Certainly not before 9. I don't care about anything before 9 A.M.
okok, I lied. I care about Starcraft 2. I got up this morning and watched some VODs. I also cast, you should check out my youtube channel if your bored at work: youtube.com/imjorman040991
But I don't wanna just self advertise. I wanna chat! What's up with you guys? Why aren't you paying attention at work/school/whatever your supposed to be doing?
Right now, he's talking about Babylon as the great enemy. I think it's sad Babylon gets a bad rap. Not very nice of them to enslave Israel forever, but hey, we all make mistakes! What do you guys think about it? If your like me, that's right, you guessed it, YOU DON'T CARE.
Who's your favorite Starcraft player? Mine dashes back and forth between HuK and Jinro. Jinro was the first pro SC2 player I have ever watched (GSL Jan. when he went RO4); however, I really like HuK just because he's a hard working guy. I think it's HuK. I'm glad I thought I that out with you guys. Sometimes you just have to get away from your first impressions.
Remember earlier when I said that I only cared bout Starcraft 2? Yeah I lied again. I have an awesome girlfriend that I like too. I'm planning on marrying her someday (everybody go "d'awwww") heh. ME? A married man? Yeah, it's crazy cray (That's my take on cray cray). I hope she will let me listen to the music I like. Yeah, I like all kinds. Not that fake "oh I like all kinds", but I seriously do. I have a spotify playlist (I'll share if you want it!) that literally has every type of music on it. It's so cool. (Of course it's cool, I made it).
Bleh, are you really still reading this? I still have an hour of this class left. It's only been thirty minutes! Yeah, this class goes from 8:40 - 10:10. I'm in the Eastern Standard Time (EST). That's a sucky time zone to live in if you like to watch GSL. I get up at 4:10!!! I wish I lived in California or something so that I could just stay up late.
Oh speaking of California, I really wanna live there someday. I want to attend grad school out there and hopefully my girlfriend will join me! Go west young man (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_West,_young_man). Man, I'm bored.
I hope I'm not making anyone angry. I JUST ANSWERED A QUESTION IN CLASS. That felt good. He asked, I jumped right on that. He asked what the sins of the Babylonian King was in Isaiah 14:12-13. It's not a proclamation of Satan's origin as many people would think. You gotta read that stuff in context dawg!
Man, I wanna do something cool someday. What's on your bucket list? Here's mine: Look at sharks in the pacific through a shark cage Live with the homeless for a week Go to Italy See the northern lights Get a PhD Publish a book Compete in a bodybuulding show Visit Korea Live in a foreign country for a year Parasail
Do you think that is doable? I sure hope so; notice, I put "Visit Korea" and "Live in a foreign country for a year" How sick would it be if I could do both in Korea?
Yeah, now it is 9:21 EST. What time is it where you are? Are you just waking up, going to bed, or perhaps in the middle of your day? What do you do all day? No shame in doing nothing; in fact, I wish that's what I was doing. I'll be doing some reading, running, and casting after classes today. What are your post-work/class plans? What
I JUST PARTICIPATED AGAIN. We were talking about gap theory and how people misinterpret Isaiah 14:12-13. That text is one of the greatest supports of gap theory. But, for it to be effective, that verse has to be interpreted incorrectly.
heh, learning stuff today.
I think I'm done for now. I'll update later if I get bored again hah

Now this is truly a blog in the most blog-sense. I like it. 5/5
I'm at work, doing my usual network simulation routine, being bored like you! Except I'm all ronery in my cubicle with only peeps on TS to talk to D=

Oh that's no fun And thanks for liking my thoughts!
What does a network simulation routine involve? Do you just like "start" something and let it run, or is there like stuff you need to constantly monitor/stay on top of.

Agreed. I love it when the blogs here are like this. Absolutely hate it when it's just some sensationalist opinion on current SC affairs.

You probably weren't even anticipating this, but this was a good read! Very personal. I liked it!
|
Aww you guys are to nice :D I just got really bored and said "well shit, Imma make blog on TL"
|
Yeah blogging can get pretty addictive, I don't even know if I should be ashamed or proud that I have probably created the most blogs on TL (especially given the time I've been on TL)
Make more :D Don't try to do anything fancy, just keep it natural, like this one.

Proud! I like blogging; I especially like it on TL where I know that people are gonna read it.

Yeah the best part about writing a blog is to see all the insightful and informative comments afterwards.

I think it's only addictive for a certain people, and I'm def not one of them. 50% of my first year computing course is based on blogging, the other 50% is the final, yet 4 weeks till the final, I haven't started my blogs yet.

Do you just like "start" something and let it run, or is there like stuff you need to constantly monitor/stay on top of. Well there are generally 4 stages to what I do (not exactly official or textbook style, but it's generally what happens). 1. Pre-run: check parameters such as simulation resolution, iteration seeds, resource usage, etc. 2. Run: observe that the network is performing as intended, priority rules, conflicts, congestion, etc. 3. Analyze: the software churns out a couple different output files, I just dump them all on my amazing super-macro magical excel sheet and magic happens and I get a bunch of useful stats out of it 4. Modify: tweak out the observed errors from step 2, and adjust network configurations for next run.
Repeat until... all calibration goals are met!
So yeah, it does require attention, but by the 300th run or something I know the network inside out so I can zone out, browse TL, chat on TS, and generally slack off until the simulation is finished.

Hey I am currently living one year abroad and in Korea. I am here as an high school exchange student. Although you hear a lot of horror stories about how bad HS is here. It really isn't that awful and I would highly recommend anyone to come to Korea it is absolutely amazing.
Also my fav SC2 player is Huk aswell! LoL player would be Doublelift or SV. lub clg.
Right now I am lying in my bed about to go to sleep, and about to start listening to APink's new album.
I like the randomness of your blog, its cool. Hope you can go to Korea and everything GLGL.

Thanks man :D I really hope to make it out someday in my lifetime!
How different is the educational system there than the country you come from?

Your experience is skewed because you're an exchange student. I think you should keep in mind that your presence changes a lot how people will act and talk in front of you. Also your workload and expectations are a lot lower compared to the average Korean student so what you're actually going through isn't what an average high schooler in korea goes through. Hard to really make a claim like yours since its based off only your experience as an exchange student. I'm not trying to say what you said is right or wrong but its something to take note of.

If you don't want to get bored, picking biblical literature was quite the blunder.

What do you plan to do once you get your degree?(not trying to be condescending, just curious)

rofl. I like it to be honest. Just AM classes don't sit well with me usually, and add to that the fact that i was up unusually late last night for some homework; just a bad day for my focus.
I want to be a professor with my degree. I plan on getting a masters in theology and then eventually a PhD. Predominately, I wanna do research for the benefit of the Church and humanity. It's a lot of school for something that might just not work out, but it's something I really enjoy and want to spend my life doing.
But yeah, a level 90 priest would be cool as hell. I'd spec shadow, of course.
