Just gotta get it out my mind and stored.

When I download, say, a massive podcast and see that someone has organised everything into dated folders and logical directories, it makes my head hurt. I couldn't stand doing such a thing... my notes and information, whether off the computer or on, are a total mess. Rather than separate things, it's all like one big paint splashed canvas.

I'm sure my life would be easier if I took the time to do it...linearly and logically.

If I didn't have OCD, my life would be a mess like yours too.

I can't stand opening so many tabs at once and saving them for reading at a later time. If I'm not in a mood to read, I'll just scan through them quickly and close it. I open multiple tabs section by section. So let's say I'm at the lounge in DV, I'll finish all the threads I want to read before opening up threads in SB because I don't like overloading my browser. I like keeping things clean and neat.

My files are usually nicely stored too. The messiest I had was my school stuff because I was in such a panic mode while doing assignments, my folders had repetitive naming and I can't remember where I stored my stuff sometimes.

I'm using a Mozilla extension called "Read It Later". It adds a little icon that if you click on a page, it saves that page for later viewing... The problem with this is that i already have 27 pages of saved stuff and i can never read that all xD

I don't have many important things to store on my computer though, so it's hard for me to forget which folder i put something in :p

I'm running out of sites to read. But I dislike reading too much. Irony. I love it.

Alright alright.

Yeah, you're the complete opposite of me - just thinking of you nicely storing things and keeping tabs to a minimum is hurting my head lol. Strangely, my room is minimalistic and has no real junk or clutter.... 'cept when you get to information. Then it's everywhere with no defined place.

My uni room was amusing... like a paper jungle. You know what though? I remember where things are intuitively, unconsciously if I shove 'em all around the room, but if I arrange 'em logically, then I have to follow the slow logical system, consciously, to find what I want. When I do forget though... not good at all. >.<

I'm the sad bastard where a lot of information is seemingly important to me. Well.... anything that requires 'understanding' and enhances my general understanding of everything, not facts, figures or dates, or crappy, basic news. I'm awful with remembering those things anyway hehe... probably because I see them as unimportant.

edit: the 27 pages of saved stuff sounds like me.... maybe I should get that extension instead of bookmarking everything.

It's much easier than bookmarking, trust me ^^ It adds a little openable window in the browser, which stores the saved stuff on pages. It's not in the way and can easily be accessed. Much easier than bookmarks. You can also create an account, so it saves your links there, so in case something goes wrong, you won't lose your list.

Cheers, my life has just got a bit more manageable.

But isn't that too orderly for you?

Haha, i'm not THAT bad. Damn if I was.

Didn't really get anything done around the apt yesterday. Woke up, went to the gym, showered, went to my piercer, chilled, went home, cooked a meal, went out to jam/chill, came home and chilled a bit more, then sleep.

Another guy said he might want to jam today... but I don't really want to. I already told him I could jam today, but he lives 45 mins away. I'm not really into the kind of music he wants to play either. Just wanna chill at home and clean up, get some groceries, maybe a bike ride. Eh.

*has 45 tabs open*

We need a tabbing club open in DV now.

First official members, Wolfwood, littlezoe and Alyzarin.

Hate it when people spew words on how I need to sign up for scholarships and all that, and telling me what a loan is. I'm not that bloody stupid. I know what a fucking loan is. And when I get mad and tell them, suddenly I have to calm down.

Would you like it if I told you something that's common sense? I swear...yes, things like that are important to worry about, but don't just say it like it's something easy. It's not as if agencies/companies/etc. are just going to give you scholarships just like that. You have to meet certain requirements, you have to do specific things to even make them consider you among the others signing up for it.

Do people actually think of it broadly instead of saying it just for the sake of trying to put more stress on a person? I get closer to going insane every time someone tries to tell me this. I don't tell you to work harder, I don't tell you to get more serious, I keep quiet, and you should know there's a breaking point towards insanity...

......

Everything is hard to get, scholarships, a place in university, jobs, bleh. @_@

This world is bloody stingy.

Exactly! God damn it, fathers, I swear.

Wait. How did fathers get into the story? o.o

Just a talk with my father, sorry about that.

I thought so. I haven't had a talk with my father for a long while. I never have a decent chat with him before either.

Me either about the never part.

It's annoying most of the forum people are awake when I'm supposed to be sleeping. And threads get replies really fast during my night. But that's not my reason for being an owl though. I just... Have some weird reasons for staying awake at night.

Yeah? it happens my sleep schedules all messed up for weird reasons too, sometimes I sleep during day sometimes at night, all depending on if I have time and actually can sleep.

I don't know what I'm going to do for college, as I can't go to the school I was thinking I was going to go to due to money. I didn't apply to any local schools so now I am going to have to do that, already way late in the game. How can college prices go up so fast? I've read that the have doubled in two years? There isn't a sizable drop in supply or increase in demand, and that kind of price increase is ridiculous.

I am falling behind in school because I've been absent so much because of various legitimate reasons. I am not that concerned about it because I'm a senior in high school, but I've never put this little time into school.

And I have to miss school again to work 14 hours for a one time deal on Tuesday.

I love wearing T-shirts.Doesn't matter if its winter or im going to sleep. Im wearing them 24/7 ... I also like comics

Sadly this doesn't mix very well here in my country because the product range you can find on the internet is about 5 different ones and 100000 cheap awfully ripped off copies

I could order from the US but I don't feel like paying twice the price just for shipping...

Design your own T-shirts.
