Bowerbird Syndrome

Is it a bad thing that I'm starting to get queasy whenever I'm staring at my computer screen now? Seriously, I think I've spent way too much time in front of a monitor this semester, I'm starting to develop some kind of Pavlovian response to them. And not the good kind either.

What to do when the thing I can't do without now make me naseous? Hopefully, once finals are over and I'm on vacation, a couple weeks away from the computer terminal will put me to rights again.

Right. Back to studying. Freakin' finals...

Some people also take notes by taping the lecture and doing a verbatim transcription.

The latter are more useful when studying for exams, though, so we like these overly/obssessively complete neat-freaks. But it also means that in the middle of some stuff on Network Protocols, we get stuff like this:

Now that I think about it, I was actually there for that particular lecture.

Be amused, dammit. :p
