I love love love love love love this Alice in Wonderland spread that I clicked through today. It is awesome and I can’t wait until I go see the movie (Monday 11:30 am to avoid crowds/children/squealing people, yes, I’m THAT crabby). Anyways, the spread is called Welcome to Wonderland and I totally used pictures from it to make my new desktop wallpaper.

I have a ton of stuff to do that I should’ve done since last week. I guess that the productivity streak has come to a halt. I just can’t find the will to do anything, I guess that I’m feeling a bit lost and well quite bleh. I don’t think that I’m making any sense right now. Weel, it is National Procrastination Week in the US and I’m so going to take that as my excuse for being a lazy bum lately.

Thursday night, I almost had the worst car crash ever! Right where I leave uni, there is this huuuge slope. So, I was going down the slope like super slow (it’s super steep and it was dark) and suddenly I see headlights right in front of me, I come to a full stop and then see the headlights go onto the other lane. I was terrified but I left the scene as soon as I could. I really hate it when people go so fast that they miss the lanes ¬¬. I saw my life flash before my eyes. Sadly, it’s not the first time that has happened to me.

I changed my computer setup. I only have a laptop (HP dv200 which has served me well for the past 3 years), but it gets uncomfortable to use the little touchpad and my keyboard is starting to fall apart. So, this is what I did to make it feel more desktop-like:

I basically prop my laptop on a book (I don’t really have a special laptop stand because a. My laptop doesn’t open a lot and b. My battery is too large for them), in my case it’s Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix XD. Then I grabbed an old wired mouse that belonged to my sister (she now has a wireless one that she doesn’t use but won’t let me have), and a keyboard that my Dad got at Best Buy but didn’t like because it’s in English (he didn’t read the box before buying it…). The keyboard bothers me because of the keys not being the same as in Spanish, Alekz swears that I will get used to it but I don’t know…

I also have my bears from London, a Tux and a beer cooler that holds pens, USBs and my Hello Kitty watch. I’m planning to get rid of a lot of stuff that sits there like old pens and pencils. Then, I have two gray boxes, one contains cables and the other contains all the reading material for this semester and important documents. Also my Moleskine and spare notebook.

The other side of the desk is for our landline (which I usually never answer) and my gadgets like my iPod and BlackJack II. I’m actually missing my other notebook and some other supplies that are in my bookbag. I try to keep my desk as uncluttered as possible but it’s hard. Paper piles up so fast. BTW, my printer and scanner reside in my Dad’s office/workshop/gym XD.

Well, I actually have to get to work (been avoiding it and I have a ton of stuff to do), so I’ll write more when I’m done.
