impassible mound

i've taken on to scribbling in cyberspace again because i've found it therapeutic and also a good way to run through the many activities of an increasingly burgeoning schedule to sift out the most important and significant event to write about. i tend not to read blogs and so have no idea whether similar 21 year olds have stopped this activity completely and moved on to something more "mature". nonetheless, going by the activity status of certain friends in the superpoke realm and also, having heard that some 40 year old persons have facebook accounts more active than the average teenager certainly helped allay any fears that this new fad of mine is a regression.

so here i am sitting at my table with an open laptop in front of me, not in the hospital and not about to attend school, unsure of what to do with the expense of time before my next commitment begins. everyone seems to be having exams now, from secondary school kids to university students, and the year 3s are no exception. somehow the inertia of starting is almost insurmountable. perhaps this is the drawback of having too much academic independence. there used to be lectures and tutorials to attend daily. now, you spend 8 weeks in one department and nothing to stop you from slacking off until it's too late and the test at the end of the posting crops up.

i would thoroughly like to read a good book, and there is an e m forster sitting not too far away from my desk but i am too lazy to begin. it must have something to do with those black moribund penguin classics covers.
