Theoretically…

This winter break has become the most unproductive vacation that I came to enjoy, and not dismiss the theoretical time that I wasted. Besides getting a terrible flu that wrecked my body on and off for almost a month now, I learned how to use a manual SLR camera, planned my trip to Japan, and spent a very little time practicing on my new Bamboo tablet. I was going to be consumed in books, starting with The Marriage Plot and Chi Running. I was engrossed in The Marriage Plot for an entire night, before leaving its ebook soul on my desktop and putting it in my mental to-do list.  Chi Running I cheated on–not only because it is an impossible book to finish completely, but also because this was my second time browsing through it (The first time during the boring lectures of that Programming course…) I was proud that I read only the first four chapters, grasping its main contents. Where did I spend rest of my time? Consuming media (blogs, news, magazines, movies), running on the trail, making veggie juices, and cleaning my old room. Oh, and lots and lots of sleeping. Thanks, Nyquil.
