Campus just has this property of being busy and involves having to look a lot more at the clock than should be legally permissible. Which is why, although I have been back since last Wednesday and have had tons to talk about, I've never had more than fifteen minutes to spare which greatly inhibits journal-writing and sleep usually takes precedence. In fact, come to think of it, almost anything takes precedence over journal-writing. Food, for one.

Anyway, amongst the bigger things, I have made some recent technological acquires. One of those is a brand new MacBook in the colour black, which I picked finally after realizing that buying the white one would be the equivalent of ensuring lasting brain damage which would occur once I saw how easy it was to stain the laptop. It, of course, has a couple of gigabytes of memory while the rest of the specifications are standard. Incidentally, the memory was purchased two weeks before the notebook itself. In a more, erm, unexpected and exciting turn of events, I bought an iPhone last Thursday after they announced the price cuts on Wednesday. It's an extremely sweet device and I love it.

I spent the entire weekend with my dorm staff for this year (the Toyon staff) at beautiful Half Moon Bay. There was a lot of discussion which almost invariably tended to put me to sleep because a lot of the discussion about "dorm issues" like alcohol, etc. was very circular. Still, the beach house we had for the weekend was this fabulous place with really beautiful architecture and a living room with a fantastic dome-shaped ceiling with a mural on it. A mural that involved Sponge Bob. There was also a fair bit of beach and frisbee, some sun and something that looked like an Orc-house. Fun times.
