so today was my special day to enrol to study at the uni here. i got there and was pretty confused about where i was supposed to go, even though i knew which building it was and went straight there. after figuring it out, the whole process took about an hour and a half, 20 minutes of which (estimate) was taken up by things related to enrolment. the rest of the time was standing in line.
i walked there (about a 40 minute walk from here), and it's been a fuckin' hot day. really hot and humid. by the time i got to the uni, my shirt was right on the cusp of being completely soaked through, so the whole time i smelled pretty bad, which was a bit annoying, but couldn't be helped.
anyway, it's all done now, pretty much. i look like a total fuckin' prick in my student id card, it's pretty funny. might post a picture of that at some point.
after that, i came back home and then headed out to the pool. felt pretty good to swim on a hot day like today. i was again embarassed by my the abysmal state of my pathetic atrophied muscles, which threatened to cramp after a few laps, but at least they lasted longer than last time. i feel like rapid improvement is likely, provided i just keep it up. i have this crazy theory that like getting blood actually flowing to my muscles and making my heart work a little might be good for me sometimes. think it's probably good for my rsi and overall health. i know, it's weird.
apart from that, other things are mostly on hold. nn is on hold until my computer situation is completely fixed, and there's some part of me that has enjoyed having the excuse to not work on it. this bothers me a little, but it'll be ok in the end. this album has been taking so much longer than i ever would have thought that these little postponements don't seem so big anymore. being in a hurry didn't really work. let's try not being in a hurry.
nn,
swimming,
