I've been studying philosophy for the last, oh, week or so, in preparation for the exam ( Read more... ) -
Philosophy-exam-studying randomness
Am reading up on Locke. Wikipedia has a note about his epitath, which I really like, odd one that I am:
"Near this place lies John Locke. If you ask what kind of a man he was, he answers that he lived content with his own small fortune. Bred a scholar, he made his learning subservient only to the cause of truth. This you will learn from his ( Read more... ) -
Random mid-night XF stuff.
So a while back it was 2am, I was playing Scrabble and finally watching s9 of XF. The Scrabble is a vital part of that equation, seeing as I was watching Daemonicus. (Fortunately, computers allow one to make the window itty bitty)Also, for the record? I've seen many places that offer hot dogs with Polish sausage, but, personally? Assuming the stuff ( Read more... ) -

ticket management / project management solution
So, I kinda need a ticket management / project management solution, one that's free and pretty. Free because I'm a student, pretty (and intuitive) because, well, it makes using it a bit easier and you want to see it a bit more ( Read more... ) -

Frelling hell.
There's an effing new ice rink near the Krakow train station. Very city centre. For me, this is 15 minutes by bus + 10 mins on foot.
It's absolutely FREE. Like, Nathan Philips Square free.
I cannot stress how incredible that is. The very concept has people stopping and staring at the sign there ( Read more... ) -
In which I consider conforming to society's idea of, well, everything to do with having a life.
*sigh* For the record, tomorrow will be painful. Have to do it, I think, but, ugh. Not only do I get to apologise for being myself (why?), I also get to gauge if I'm still on speaking terms with my boss (and M.), because the only message I got from her since Friday was not exactly... at our usual level of conversation. Beats me why that particular ( Read more... ) -
Searching for an essay topic for my Sociology course...
So I need a topic for my Sociology essay. Pretty much anything to do with sociology will fly - "as long as it's a cultural phenomena described in sociological terms".
My first issue is that I can't imagine writing a 10-15 page essay in Polish on any topic whatsoever, even the wonders of winter in Canada, or the role of relationships in the Star ( Read more... ) -
On yesterday's Xmas party.
So, yesterday we had a staff Xmas party at the school. I got up at 4 am to bake maple leaf-shaped (long story - but basically that's my only cookie cutter) cookies (which I then left in the oven for a couple of minutes too long, and they're not burnt, but they are dry and crisp now and a danger to the teeth of those who do not suspect it) and apart ( Read more... )
