what happened?

i've spent the past three days at school. it's amazing how much you can get done if you aren't at home. i don't even know i how i distracted myself. but being in this computer lab at school has increased my productivity a thousand-fold. i've created two different layouts for my updated resume. and now it's onto updating old projects, something i started months ago. but i hate myself for leaving that at home.

so in reality i am procrastinating by writing this. oh well... too bad. i've done more than i've done for almost three months.

i am in the civil engineering computer lab in alumni hall. it appears that there is never a class in this lab. (awesomeness for me.) but it's always full of people. i think everyone in this department is partial to this lab. that's fine. as long as there's a computer for me. what would make this comuting to school every day better, is if they had somewhere i could store stuff. a locker or something. the school is mostly comuters, i don't know why they don't have something like that for them. i guess there is a comuter lounge and that was a long time coming, so maybe... eventually...

looking back on my work from pratt a lot of it isn't bad. i have more negative memories of it than there probably were. even my work from my one architecture class isn't horrible. i could salvage some of it. yet i've always been under the impression that it was all complete crap and that it almost isn't worth the memory space on my harddrive. why you hold on to everything.

the additional good part about being on campus every day is that it deliniates dinner time and bed time. though when i have class i still am too "stimulated" (to borrow a word from my prof) to go to bed at a reasonable hour. and being on campus on class days makes eating quite complicated.

also in lue of this new ability to be productive, i also have started being more organized at home. putting things away when i use them or when i'm done with them, instead of ignoring the entire mess. (dishes are still a pain, but they always will be.) who knew getting out of the house would help? it's starting to make me rethink wanting to work at home. i think it's a combination of not having a deadline and being at home. i'm not compelled to do anything because there's no deadline i have to work towards. by being out of the house, on campus, i have to fill the time doing something. and my selection of things to do is limited.

let's hope that i keep this up.
