Comps diversions

While I compsed I played a lot of games on sporcle.com. My favorite is the countries of the world game. You have to name all 195 countries of the world in 15 minutes. So far the best I've done is 194, but lately I've been missing two or three countries. Once I get the countries, I'm moving onto capitals. Woo hoo!

Anyways I was browsing on the site and I saw a Same but Different name game: http://www.sporcle.com/games/JayHankEdLyonJr/namegame

I haven't played it, but it looks fun. And also difficult.

Lil update

My comps is due in 10 days, so I am a little bit stressed out. That is a total lie, because I am a lot stressed out.

The upshot is that on the last day of classes, I'll be done with it. Maybe. At last for this term.

Peacin' Out

So many people are leaving already! Johns (who is blogging with Alex at Marx Engels and the Merlion) already left for Singapore, and I said goodbye to Becky this morning. It's very stressful. One way I'm going to look at it is that I'll have far fewer distractions and will therefore focus necessary attention on my comps. Is that just wishful thinking?


Also this is a TERRIBLE version of this song. I hate John Denver's versions of this song and love Peter, Paul and Mary, which is ironic because I think he wrote the song. Also the original title was "Oh Babe I Hate to Go." Gross! Unfortunately, this was the only moderately ok one on youtube. It's funny though because the video and audio aren't in sync.
