So I've been spending the past week trying to work out all these computer issues at work and at home. First it was red ants finding a home in my computer… don't know why but they just started to find a home in my computer. Luckily I wasn't able to get them out (hopefully all of them) and I'm keeping the bug repellent close by. I read that they are attracted to the electricity – that's nuts if you ask me… would us humans say "hey electricity is fun! Let me stick my hand in this socket"… I don't think so. Anyway, now its the slow internet connections that I have to deal with. (Did I mention that my internet connection at home is a 56k modem – and my apartment cuts off your call after 30minutes).
Maybe I'm a little stressed with a couple of assignments coming up that I have to do for my Masters? Who knows… at least the urban design course is all about drawing and coming up with ideas to an urban problem, which is a nice change from your standard write-a-paper type of course. I had a chance to explore a little around my neighborhood for my course and found out a lot about my area. First, there's a 18-hole golf course across from my apartment (in addition to the driving range new my place)… and second, for the most part all the caddies for the golf course are all women over 35 who all wear florescent green shirts.
