I just spent the past 2 hours setting up emacs on windows. By setting up, I mean doing the whole .emacs thing along with installing some of the extensions that I like (icicles, tabbar, and cursor-chg so far). For some reason forcing all the backup files to be saved in only one directory doesn’t seem to work. But oh well, I should work on my problem set now.

Today is a glorious day: Asian Kung-Fu Generation’s newest album, World World World, was released! Their last album was in 2006. I currently listening to it right now, and it rocks!

I was up until 5:20AM yesterday-today completing a Ch 121: Atomic simulations of molecules and materials assignment. In addition, I was running a lot of simulations for my research. Unfortunately, I was running about 25 simulations at once which generated like 10 MB of data every 5 minutes. This quickly filled up my free space of about 3 GB and all of my simulations crashed! Ugh, I’ll have to figure out some ways to clear the space…

Sigh, I was kind of looking forward to going to Ricketts Punk Night tonight (members of their house play various punk rock). Too bad when I was just about to leave, someone wanted me to help with something. Oh well.

I just had the epiphany that freestyle rap is kind of like a guitar solo except played by the mouth. You trade off musical complexity for lyrical complexity.

T’will be an insane day today. I have two sets due and a research meeting with my mentor tomorrow. So I have to finish the sets as quickly as possible so that I can prepare for the meeting!

What’s going on here? I’ve been working on a Tumblr minimalist theme clone (for Wordpress) with some of my own modifications. Essentially, I’m trying to move to a more “microblogging” format so that I can post early and often without worrying about the need to write groundbreaking and substantial posts.

The Superbowl this year was amazing. I don’t really have to say much more, you all know what I mean. Also, the reason why I haven’t been posting much (besides the fact that I’m busy) is that I’m getting ready to revamp my blog to fit a microblogging format. Once that occurs, you can expect to see more posts from me!
