I hadn't used LJ in such a while that a) my computer had forgotten the password and b) I had too, so I ended up getting my IP briefly banned due to repeated bad guesses ( Read more... ) -
Countdown to the JLPT and Tokyo
The end of semester has kinda snuck up on me, and with it a multitude of deadlines and dates I hadn't realised were so close. Next Sunday I'm driving down to take the JLPT, then two days later I fly to Tokyo for just shy of two weeks (both with Sorrel, tangentially enough.

It must be the last minute before an essay deadline, because I'm obsessively cleaning my apartment. Ostensibly I'm actually making a space I can work in for tomorrow, which is the only day I have left myself to read and write several thousand words on Kant's view of space.

Messenger has started annoying the crap out of me by lagging out when I start typing. Nothing else seems to do it, so I'm pretty sure the problem is limited to MSN Messenger itself, but I can't figure out what the problem is. Squinting at the task manager it seems to be suffering spikes of CPU usage that might be coinciding with the lag, but I'm ( Read more... )
