Now here's a picture I dredged up recently. Wolfie, Jotun, David and I falling over each other in an attempt to stay in view of the camera we set to auto-release, after it slipped into a different position on the rain-spattered hood of David's car. Good times.

My new obsession. Already I've been trying to work appointments out of November, trying to get in some assignments so I can do them in advance and just generally trying to free up as much time as possible for National Novel Writing Month, which is an international phenomenon whose goal is to get people to write.
You have one month, November 1 through 30, to write one complete novel, with the focus on quantity rather than quality. It doesn't matter if it's stupid, all that matters is that it gets finished and has at least 50.000 words, by midnight November 30.
I'm so stoked! I'm doing writing exercises, hopefully to improve my handwriting, because it would be supercool if I could handwrite the thing, but we'll see!

Purposes
This blog thing can serve many, many useful purposes. Because it's more a 'log' and less a 'journal' it might be a good idea to start keeping my homework up on here -- posting it here first, then updating and finally handing it in. Similar with summaries of books and things. Very, very good....
For those interested, I'm ostensibly a New Media student, and a rather lazy one at that. I've taken a few courses in Americanistics because, as a European, I like to be snooty and superior and know more about the States than its inhabitants do.Wednesday, September 8, 2004
The first blog post.
This will be something of an experiment. I've been LiveJournalling, with varying degrees of faithfulness, for a few months now. I'm interested to see whether LJing and Blogging are very different experiences, and will try to employ this blog for the purposes for which I most often see it employed: referencing and commenting on popular culture phenonema.
